Panda's & Hearts

Good Morning bloggers, it's Saturday morning so It's time for a new challenge today at Allsorts.
This week our theme is  'Embossing - Dry or Wet'

To make this card I have used a freebie from a magazine, it was a stamp and embossing folder set.  My daughter loves Panda's and her favourite colour is yes, Purple.  I used some Co-ordination card and sanded over the embossing, then chose random hearts and glittered them.

Here are the prizes on offer this week:-

Baby Blue!

Good Morning bloggers, it's Saturday morning so It's time for a new challenge today at Allsorts.
This week our theme is 'I spy with my little eye something beginning with B'

So on my card I have the following for the theme B is for Blue, Bubbles, Baby, Bow and Boy
I am using another new LOTV image, called Blowing Bubbles, also my border die is new too, both items little pressies to myself.  I have glossed the hearts seen as they are bubbles, thought they'd look nicer.
