Cupid's arrow

Hello,

Welcome to another Challenge over at the Heart's Quest Fantasy Challenge Blog.  As always it starts the first Saturday of the month, and as usual it lasts for about a month. I do hope that you'll join us. 

The theme of the Challenge, as always, is Fantasy, however as long as it's Fantasy pretty much anything goes. If you're not sure what we mean by that just check out the guidance in the Challenge Rules, and in the side bar on the Challenge blog. We also have a monthly optional theme, this month it's Cupid. I've chosen to create a card I will be able to use as a Valentine's card for my husband next month.

8 x 8 black card blank

Birthday cat

Hello there,

It's the first of the month again, so it's time for a new Pearly Sparkles challenge, over at the Pearly Sparkles Challenge Blog. Our theme this month is "Something old and Something new". I decided to make a card using a frame die I've had a while and used several times, and a new cat die I've not used before. I needed to make a card for my sister-in-law who loves cats so this seemed ideal.

I do hope you'll join us over at the Pearly Sparkles Challenge Blog this month and share your makes with us.
