Two challenges & Cyber stamping :o)

Happy new year!

It's been hard to get back into regular stamping after concentrating on Christmas for so long. I went in search of a challenge to help get me started. This card uses the Just Us Girls (JUG) sketch challenge #65 and the Play Date Cafe colour challenge #62.


I chose to use Melon Mambo, Crumb Cake, Regal Rose and Whisper White.

The most fun thing about this card is that my BFF and I did some cyber stamping using Live Messenger. She is in Brisbane, I am in Canberra and we used the same challenges and came up with two completely different cards. It was lots of fun and didn't really feel like I was sitting in my craft room alone at all. I'm so looking forward to doing more cyber stamping together!
