The Quirky Challenge Goes 'Live'

It's Sunday!! and I can't keep it in any longer!!
The Quirky Craft's Fortnightly Challenges

are going 'live' today! The 'first' Challenge in Blogland has been set by Fe-Fe and she has chosen

"Love" or/and "Foreign!!!"

Now you can interpret that in any way you'd like! A Valentine's, Wedding or Anniversary Card, Fat page, Altered Art, ATC, a Scrap book page featuring your fabulous holiday away in some exotic place...like... the Isle of Wight or Paris!! Or even put the two ideas together! Anything that takes your fancy... Brad Pitt on Toast... Whatever!! Actually I was going to do a Paris Scrap book page, with me and him in doors...but...as you can see, I've chosen to make an easel Valentine Card instead. (More Bears Lyn?? Yes, I know, but they are sooo cute!! RThey're new, and this is the first time I've used them!) I've used, a Forever friends Clear Stamp set and decoupaged the little images, my Nestabilities for the scalloped circles. The Scrapbook paper is by Bo-Bunny and is called 'Heart Attack'
Pop over to the New Quirky Challenge Blog and have a shifty at what the other DT members have made and have a go!!! And of course there'll be prizes!!

A Little Birdie Challenge

I was going to cheat and post a card I made last year, but then I thought, nah, let's quickly make a new one and this is it! I've put this post on the timer thingy so...if it's not here and you aren't reading this now, you might be reading it this time next year and by then the challenge will be over, so I'm hoping Penny will do the same challenge this time next year too! Then I'll be early! But if I've got it right and you are reading this now, over on Penny's Challenges the challenge this week is Birds...

This lovely freebie down load is really all about moving house, but I thought the bird was cute! I know loads of you have already found it, but for those of you who haven't you can download this 'Home Sweet Home' kit form The Creative Cottage. Hop over and see some really fabulous cards made with these lovely papers. Don't forget to leave a comment!!
Meanwhile, a warm welcome to new follower Jeanet from Creaplekkie van Jeanet pop over to her lovely blog, where you'll find some really fantastic makes of all kinds!
I'll be back later to put in links and take out all my bad spelling mistakes... so pop back later, that's of course if it's actually here.... and with any luck, the next post coming up will be....

Last Weekend
