Robyn's Fetish Challenge # 279 : SQUARE CARDS ONLY

Hello,

I will probably already be at work when you will pop in here, as there is a big "car boot sales" in our village and therefore I open the shop earlier and all day long.....
We are Sunday and it's time for a new challenge at Robyn's Fetish Challenge, and this week we are sponsored by Angie's Cards and Digis. We wish to see SQUARE CARDS ONLY, and the winner will be able to choose 3 digital stamps from her store.

Here is the card I have made using "Birds playing in Birdbath"

 
I have used a French stamp for the sentiment, which means "Happy Birthday". I have coloured the digi with my Spectrum Noir pencils in Primaries : 065, 061, 010, 017, 084, 024, 013, 050 and 052.

 
As well as Nature in 059 and Essentials in 056. I have used "fancy scissors to cut my digi.


 
I put it on green paper and than on a pastel pink card.
 
Before I leave you for today, I wish to let you know that, this challenge is the last one I will do for a while. Life is a bit "hard" with me for the minute, and between the shop, school and my dearest man who is not in his best form, I have decided to step back for 6 months.
I had a "chat" with Susan, our gorgeous DT Coordinator and Robyn and they have accepted my decision. So as we say in France "Ce n'est pas un adieu, juste un au revoir" (which I can't really translate as I am not sure you have 2 words to say "bye"....... It roughly means "It is not a definitive bye, only a see you soon")
 
That's it for me today.
Come and join us in the fun and show us your SQUARE CARDS ONLY

Happy afternoon crafting

Good evening,

Am on "holidays" if I can say so.......Really just off the shop, as my daughter nicely take over for a few weeks, so I can have time with my stunning man, and some time for me.

So after a very nice lunch and chat with my daughter, I spend a few hours in my craft room away from the rain, that am sure you have sent from England......Lol!!!!!!

I made a few cards, and one will fit very well for this month challenge at Clarity Stamp challenge

 
I have used this month Club stamp. I have stamped it with blue Adirondack Ink, and have embossed it. Than I have cut it and 3D glued it.

 
For the backround paper, I have used a piece of paper I created ages ago, with Ink, water and the cling film. I really like the effect. For the sentiment, I have used a micro-pen and the "Wheel stencil" and wrote "Congratulations" in French.
 
I fixed it on a green paper and on a pink card, which has been cut with some fancy scissors.
 
Really need some French sentiment from Clarity.......So if you can put that on Barbara's ears would be very nice.......
 
I will enter my card in the following challenges :
Clarity Stamp Challenge : Challenge 29, Anything Goes
Aud Sentiments Challenge : Anything Goes + a sentiment
 
Thanks for taking a few minutes to read my post.
