Last gasp Think Pink

The Think Pink sale is drawing near and all donations of crafts need to be with Di before next Tuesday, so I needed to get a move on and try to finish off some of the challenges.
This is my altered gift bag, I used the Kirsty Wiseman free download papers generously gifted to Bubbly Funk, the colours went well with the pinky brown bag.
This is an oddball card that doesn't have any mates. I made it on the same principal as Kathy's Speedy Cards (1) but instead of baubles I used the Poinsettia template that came with this month's PaperCraft Inspirations.

Shock, horror, drama - I actually did an Art Journal Journey card! We had been talking about various transfer techniques on BF and there were some instructions in the Altered Art book I got for my birthday. This is a 'packing tape' transfer, except that I didn't have any packing tape so I used ordinary sellotape and a picture from a magazine. The picture transfers to the tape but is still slightly transparent. I'm going to try and get some wider tape so I can do more of this.

  4. Wow Janice, you've been busy lovely. I particularly like the poinsettia card, rather attractive indeed. Never tried the transfer technique, so may have to give that a go. XX
