July Challenge - Red, White & Blue

I was thrilled this month to see just as many beginners/intermediate entries in the challenge. Well done all of you and thank you for joining in the fun. The challenge is all about taking you out of your comfort zone and it should be fun. Thank you all for having a go. Sadly there can only be one winner but rest assured that all your cards were enjoyed and voted for. I don't think there was a single card that didn't have a vote!

However there can only be one winner in each category and therefore it is my pleasure to announce that the winner in the Beginners is

Daphne

this is Daphne's first ever entry, so well done Daphne.

The winner in the Advanced section is

Rhonda

Well done Rhonda.

Sketchy Paint Spills

In the last edition of Australian Simply Cards I had a coffee break feature. In this feature was this simple stamped card. It has been a very popular card, I guess partly for it's simplicity and partly for it's versatility. I really can be used for any gender and any age group just by swapping some colours. Here is how I made this card - for those who may have missed the magazine. Instructions 1. Cut an A4 sheet of white cardstock in half at 14.8cm x 21cm . 2. Score and fold in half at 10.5cm. 3. Cut another piece of white smooth cardstock to 14.3cm x 10cm . 4. Stamp the sentiment with the Versafine ink in the bottom right corner. 5.
