The new book at The Library is Forty Whacks by David Kent. This was chosen by Visiting Librarian, Arlene, and I must say, I was surprised and delighted with her choice! I bet this is the first ever craft challenge inspired by true crime.
For my card, I ditched the murder theme and went with the colours , the 40 in the title and the torn paper effect.Sunday 30 August 2020

Inkspirational Challenges - Rain and Rainbows
Our new challenge at Inkspirational is rain or rainbows.
For my DT card I used a very old Stamps Happen stamp, embossed it in silver and coloured it with Zig markers, adding a few spots. Then I added a sentiment from a MFT set.

The Library Challenge - The Duke and I
The new book at The Library was chosen by Visiting librarian Vivi, and it's The Duke and I .
This is a Regency romance , which I don't usually read but she's been compared to Jane Austen , of whom I'm a big fan , so I might give it a try...
For my card I was inspired by the hand holding the sign with the title on it. I used a Mama Elephant rabbit and birthday stamp and added an extra random sentiment at the bottom.

Twofer - Sun
This month's Twofer Challenge (sun or moon) is an easy one, I think - I could have made 100 cards with a sun or moon on them...in fact, I probably HAVE made 100 sun or moon cards over the years!
The sun stamp I used is an old one, which I think was a Craft Stamper magazine freebie.
For my second card I used some stamps from a set by Reverse Confetti called 'background builder' - it's the kind of set you buy because they look a bit unusual and then when you get them, you've no idea what to do with them!Or is that just me? So I used the round spotty one to add some interest to the sun and the long spotty one as a border at the bottom. The rhino (brand unknown) was coloured with Promarkers and the sentiments are Waffle Flower.
