Yes it's me - I'm still in the land of the living! I'm sorry but I've been totally lacking in the crafting and blogging department of late. You know that saying - "can't think, brain dumb, inspiration won't come" - well, that's been me, however, I need to make a few cards for upcoming birthdays etc, so I spent a little time in my crafty room on Saturday night and I have to say I totally enjoyed it.
This card today is for the new challenge over at Crafty Cardmakers. The challenge theme, chosen by Josephine, is HOLIDAYS. (Create a project which depicts, or is inspired by,a holiday)
I took inspiration from our easter break in Paris.
I used a kraft card base, the red tag is a Stampin Up die, the black flourish card was packaging and I overstamped and embossed it in gold with the SU 'En Francais' stamp. The Eiffel Tower is a Hero Arts stamp and matching die and I finished it off with a 'Bonjour' epoxy sticker, which I found whilst rummaging in my drawers! Isn't it amazing what you find!
Our sponsors for this challenge are Sir Stampalot.
My card also fits nicely with the challenge over at Let's Craft and Create - "Tags".

Well, that's it for today, hopefully I'll have something else to post in the coming days, as I still have a couple of more cards I need to make.
Thanks ever so much for popping in.
Take good care.

Love the balanced mix of traditional and modern here...very pretty!
This is beautiful Suze. Loving the thrifty use of your 'packaging', and it's beautifully overstamped too. I thought your sticker you found in your drawers 'ohhh err missus' was one of those shaving foam filled thingies until I had a proper read. All in all a great design.
