Today it's my turn to host the challenge at Allsorts and I have chosen the theme 'It's all in the sentiment", there are some wonderful inspirational quotes and sentiments available which I love using on my work and hope you will join in this week and show us your favourites.
Our sponsor this week is Nicecrane Designs who I wrote about earlier in the week and I am having great fun working with their latest products. There are links to all the products I have used in the thumbnails at the bottom of the post so you can check out for yourself these and all the other lovely designs.
The top card uses what I think is my all time favourite Penny Black quote which I have simply stamped onto some Teresa Collins DP, a nestie frame and two decoupaged butterflies from Nicecrane Butterfly Twinches sheet.
- Add the Saturday Candy logo to your sidebar
- Be a follower of my blog
- A random winner will be selected from all comments left on my blog between now and Friday, so two comments during the week two chances of winning and so on.
- The winner will be announced next Saturday
I also have another little share using ore of Igancio's images as he asked me a few days ago if I could cerate a collection of bookmarks with his images.
I made these using images from the Victorian Young Ladies, Harrison Fisher and Ladies Hats sheets, such beautiful quality and clarity and for someone like me who can't colour in for toffee absolutely perfect. You can find them here or follow the thumbnail links below.
That's it for today Peeps and hope you all have a lovely weekend.

Two beautiful cards Brenda, but the one featuring the Harrison Fisher image has to be my favourite (for obvious reasons!!) and the frame is just perfect. Have a lovely weekend xx
I love the top sentiment and so love this style of card, some fabulous makes today, gorgeous bookmarks x
Beautiful cards Brenda - I love the quote stamp on the top one - and the quote on the second one goes so well with the image. Great idea to use the punches for the bookmarks. Make them prettier than the norm.

Oh my word Brenda, so much to comment on. Firstly the way your using the Nicecrane images is amazing. And I love the idea of stamping the sentiment onto patterned paper, will have to try that one.
The bookmarks are so beautiful, can I pinch your idea of border punching down each side, never thought of doing that. What a post of inspiration today, as always.
Happy crafting

The butterflies are the perfect accent on this wonderful sentiment.
Looks like you had great fun with those bookmarks - I do love that Penny Black sentiment & the way you've used the butterflies with it is lovely - I especially like your use of that patterned paper: the way those yellow flowers are echoed in the colour of the butterflies.

Amei os marcadores. Que doce legal, toda semana uma nova chance, hein? Obrigada pela oportunidade.
Beautiful card!
I like your oval card Brenda and the book marks are really lovely! The butterflies on your top card are lovely too. I saw some large blues (which are actually really small) today on a walk. I believe they are supposed to be rare but I saw loads of them and they are stunning! I might put up a pic of them on my blog.
