Morning everyone, today sees our new challenge at Allsorts where Liz would like to see Embossing Folders, as an alternative there's always the A/G option. Prizes from from Oakwood, Sizzix, AALL and Create and Craft Stash.
Lots asked me about the show last weekend, I can confirm We Will Rock You was amazing, our son had booked a box along with bubbles, plus it was London Pride weekend so lots of atmosphere and colour.
I have used a Lisa Horton set which includes embossing folder, die and stencils along with a further embossing folder in the background which I lightly inked with a brayer to carry the colour of the Pansies. The focal sentiment is my all time favourite from Penny Black, been far too long since I used it. A simple card as Lisa's sets make it so easy.
Here are a few of my DT shares of the Highlight Crafts TRR Festive Favourites launching on Create and Craft today.
Today I am off to Cambridge for Azaria's hen do ahead of next Saturday's wedding. I asked if she was sure she needed Granny there and was left in no doubt, so it's brunch, cocktail making, punting on the Cam and an evening meal. I've got previous on the punting front so will be making sure I don't get a soaking today!
Happy Weekend all.

Stunning makes as usual. The pansies are so pretty and the baubles on those Christmas cards really stand out. Love the icy scenes though. I hope your eyes are improving. xx
Your pansies card is so lovely with that great quote tucked in behind the flowers! Your Christmas cards are all fabulous and I'm especially drawn to the autumn leaves version in gold. Nice job on everything and so glad you enjoyed the concert! Have a great weekend as well!
Really love the colors on the flowers on your card. Great DT Shared cards too. Great imagery on all of them.
A beautiful assortment of projects here, Brenda. Love your choice of embossing folder with the pretty pansies and the quote in focus. Such beautiful new products too from Highlight Craft and you've showcased them so nicely here!
Gorgeous pansies card, so beautiful. And stunning Christmas cards too;-))m
Gorgeous projects Brenda! Pansies are one of my favorites- they just always look like happy faces to me and are such a beautiful color. The coppery leaves and ornaments are stunning.

Fabulous cards Brenda, like Dena, I always liken pansies to little happy faces. Those baubles are rather fabulous too. Pleased to hear that We Will Rock You didn;t disappoint and hope you have a lovely girly time at the hen do!! xx
PS Thank you for the Oakwood parcel, what a wonderful, and really useful prize xx
Wow! Che splendida creazione per Allsorts, Brenda! Adoro quelle piccole violette delicate sugli angoli del sentiment centrale e il design è stupendo, così come i colori e l'embossing!!
Le palline di Natale di TRR sono favolose!!! Adoro specialmente quelle blu, spiccano così bene sullo stencil, una card davvero molto tattile! Anche quella con i colori e le foglie autunnali è deliziosa! E le due decorazioni da appendere con i pupazzi di neve mettono davvero allegria!
Sono felice che tu esca per l'addio al celibato di Azaria, una sferzata di gioventù può farti solo bene dopo le ultime vicissitudini! :) Goditi la serata!!!
Abbracci!
Great cards Brenda, they all seem to have wonderful dimension. I am glad you enjoyed your trip to London and that all went well. How encouraging to hear that granny is wanted at a hen weekend. Hope you stayed the course and kept dry xx
Love the pansies and the touch of ink of the background EF, so pretty. The ornament cards are all so striking, what lovely images. The autumn one is my fav. Azaria's hen do sounds so much fun - hope you are having a great time.
Gorgeous pansies card, Brenda! I have been eyeing up the Lisa Horton stamp/die/stencil kits for a while now... The Festive favourites are beautiful quite unique designs too.
Have fun at the hen do (hope the punting happens before the cocktails...) x
wow very beautiful and great cards you have made Brenda

A beautiful card full of pansies for Liz’s theme.
Your Christmas bauble cards are stunning. So detailed.
Good to hear the show was fab. Hope you remained dry at the Hen Do and had a ball. Xxx
Your cards are stunning Brenda, the colours of the Pansies are amazing and those Christmas bauble cards are fabulous...enjoy your day out

Wish your wintercards could make me feel a bit cooler... :) Love the flowers and your colours on the flowercard! So super that Azaria wants you at her hen's! Hope you had a super one! And great after what was a good weekend last weekend... Hugs, Gerrina
A beautiful Pansy card, the colours are vibrant and cheerful.
Fabulous Christmas themed projects too, in all the different colourways. As much as need to get in to the Christmas theme with time ticking away fast I just can't seem to. It will surely hit me at some point and then I will start to panic.

Those baubles are amazing. Really look rounded. Can't get my head round christmas just yet. Got to have a blood test now. Hope they don't decide to mess around with my medication. Hugs Mrs A.
Beautiful embossed card Brenda .. love the colour accents on the embossing folder to pick up the pans colour, and the fab sentiment … I never bought it back in the day and am now always on the look out for it but no success to date. Lovely selection of your other cards too, and glad you had a great time at We Will Rock You. Hope the hen do went well xx
