Here is my DT card:

I am loving my new Glossy Accents which I bought from the Hobbycraft show a few weeks back!! I am using it on everything! haha  Not sure you can really see it in the picture, but it looks pretty cool in real life, even if I do say so myself! :oD  It brings a flat picture to life!  I am also loving my Elegant Square card! I wish I had a die cut that could cut it out for me, as I had to cut the backing paper out myself, was a bit tricky, but didn't do a too bad a job I don't think?

Anyway, have fun with this challenge everyone!

Please bear with Donna while she is trying to rectify the problem

Llook out for challenge 26 on my blog, and the other DT's blog's tomorrow, but you just won't be able to add your card until the challenge blog is sorted.

Pear Tree Designs Challenge 24 - Bonfire Night

Hi all,

Hope you had a great Halloween!  We got no trick or treaters again this year, but to be honest, I'm fine with that!! I usually associate it with being egged...so I'd rather not open the door!

Anyway, back to this weeks challenge - Bonfire Night!!  Anyone doing anything for this?  I will be at the NEC Hobbycraft show so I might get to see a few Firework Displays on my journey back from Birmingham!

We would like you all to produce a card/project which is related to Bonfire Night/Guy Fawkes/November 5th! Please stick to this theme only otherwise your entry will be deleted.

Here is my challenge card:

I found a beautiful picture off of Google Images after reading one of my magazines showing different ways of scrapbooking images, and thought I'd do the same for a card!  Unfortunately I am not very good at taking photos when using glossy paper, so I have a glare from the flash.  I have used my fab glitter pen on the fireworks to add some sparkle.

We are being sponsored by The Character Cafe this week.  They are a brilliant digital design website, providing excellent digital images.  They are offering our challenge winner a $10 Gift Certificate to spend on their online store!  Please head over to Pear Tree Designs Challenge Blog and enter your card/project before this Sunday @ 4pm.

Have a good week, and good luck,
