Eeek - No Patterned ....

.... Paper. That's the name of this week's challenge on PaperPlay Challenges, set by Kate:

You are not allowed to use any patterned paper in your project. You may however (if you wish) make your own, out of card stock, for example, using whatever techniques you want ! You can use paint, you can emboss or stamp it's entirely up to you or you can just use different colours of plain cardstock if that's what you want!

Crikey - that one pulled me right out of my comfort zone, as I do lurve patterned paper! So out came the distress inks, Cuttlebug embossing folder, needle + thread and Co-ordinations cardstock and I made this card (thoroughly enjoyed it too!!).

I used a sketch from CraftyCardmakers so I'm going to enter it there.

I've been a bad crafter the last few weeks, have been painting DD's room among other things, and simply haven't got myself organised at all after going back to school. But I'm going to a crop on Saturday - I've got a few ideas in my head that will hopefully become reality and, all going well, will post them after the weekend!

Thanks for looking!
