Prince Charming... I mean Ian

This is my third post for the day... sorry for clogging up your google readers etc!! :D Click here for my Stamp Spot post.

The CHA relay is finished now (early) ... there were just too many people and people not posting in the right place etc etc.... pretty crazy.... HUGE THANKS to those girls who were taking care of things... I  had a blast!!!

When I saw the preview of Prince Ian on the Greeting Farm site...I wondered if I should use Dressy Joyce as a princess and Ian as the prince or Princess Ava... and Guy said to use the princess kissing the frog.. so I did!

Here is the front of my card....

and the inside....

and then close up of Prince Ian on the inside cover of the card....

The castle photos were taken when Guy and I stayed in Carcassonne back in 2007 ... we took soooo many photos... just loved the old walled city!! Mmm... looking through the pile of photos made me realise that I really should finish scrapping that holiday... So hopefully I  will be able to scrap a few pages a week from now on! Will try!!! lol

I am REALLY enjoying using the Copic markers... but unfortunately now E00 and E35 are empty... so I'm going to have to get some refills!

Club Anya and Friends - Kim's Shape up for the new Year challenge

I'm still having fun with the Club Anya and Friends New Year challenges.... I am halfway there!!
But instead of keeping things simple... seems I'm in the mood for a little more intricate today.
I thought I'd share with you my favourite project so far.

Kim Nath set this Shape up for the New Year Challenge.
I decided I wanted to use Princess Ava and that therefore I should make a castle shaped card.... so here it is:


The next photo shows the shape/ card from a different angle. I cut out the bottom half first and then the top part is a single layer attached to the inside of the front piece. I had to dig out the craft knife to cut out all the windows.


Here is a picture of the card lying flat on the table.

Thanks for looking! I'm off to get a few more cards done and uploaded to the Galleria.
And I'd like to get a bit of blog hopping done too!

thanks for stopping by!
