Thank you to everyone who entered the April Challenge.  This challenge was all about making a card that would fit inside a C6 envelope. Quite a challenge for those of us who love our bigger cards!  Unfortunately, there can only be two winners and believe me it's hard to pick a winner!!! The people's choice vote went to Pam for her very clever car design. Pam receives a $10 voucher to spend in store for her entry. The judge's choice goes to Sue for her lovely lilac card. We loved the way Sue had used the circle die...very clever.  The ink detail on the little birds is wonderful too.  Sue wins a $20 voucher to spend in store for her entry.  There were some wonderful entries, and here they all are...

I have had some wonderful expressions of interest from my advert in the January edition of Australian Simply Cards. Thank you everyone. The response has been overwhelming. These are the cards that were placed in the ad so I thought I would tell you a bit about them, the dies used and the prices of these dies.  Firstly though, let me explain, I am a very small business at present, running from a shop on my property. I carry small quantities of stock, but continually order more stock in, so if I don't have something I will get it ASAP. I don't currently have a website with products on but you can sign up to my newsletter  and I will send out updates as stock arrives. Simply send me an email to kookacft@bigpond.com to request to join my mailing list.  Now onto the cards: This card is made using the Sue Wilson Caribbean Island Background die. I have cut it in ivory cardstock and teamed it up with some Pion Designs Paris Flea Market papers.  Th...

The March challenge was "Sue Wilson". So any style of card any design as long as it used a Sue Wilson die or stamp. I have to say the entries were amazing!!  Jenelle and I had so much trouble picking a winner. We had to get really picky and down to the nitty gritty to choose between them. You girls made it so hard for us to choose just one. BUT, there can only be one winner - chosen by us - so that winner is.... Pam We loved the way Pam used the die in such a different way. She also made the roses herself and everything was straight...no mean feat!!! Well done Pam. You win a $20 voucher to spend next time you come into the shop. The winner's choice - as chosen by everyone else goes to  Maralene Congratulations Maralene. A stunning card.  You win a $15 voucher to spend next time you are in the shop. Here are everyone else's cards.  Enjoy! I know we did. There are some gorgeous cards! Pam Rhonda ...
