I decided to make something a little different, I decided to make a Welcome Back Banner for my workmate Meg who has been on leave for about a month. I pulled out my Pacifica, Lemon, Cranberry and Emerald cardstock and cut 3 inch strip and then cut them into a bunting shapes. 

The white letters are cut with the ABC Thin Cuts and I stuck the letters on with Tombow adhesive, then onto my old black and white twine with washi tape. The length of the twine was determined by what was left on the role. I didn't measure it at all. 

I'm going to put the bunting up in our office to welcome my workmate back. I've missed her. Primary colours are really fun. It would have also looked good with Black letters but I ran out of black cardstock and need to re-stock.

I have been quite ill this week with a head cold and running nose, tissues were my friend all week. So I decided with this challenge I would make myself a get well card :) 

The colours I chose for this card are Raspberry (hot pink) and Pixie (light pink) plus the silver glitter paper. 

I used the pink paper from the  Workshops Your Way® Craft On Scrapbooking Kit 
for the cute little pink hearts paper and Silver Glitter PaperThe twine was like the current Whisper Thick Twine but in pixie pink. I used 3D foam tape to hold it up and stamped in raspberry. I had to mask the Soon to put it below the Get well to fit the white daisy cardstock I used.

My daughter played along with the same colour scheme and used Little Aussies 
stamp set which is really cute. She used a circle thin cut shape to mask the circle and sponged raspberry ink in the circle and stamped over in black ink. then used the hearts to do some random stamping in first and second generation. She finished with some silver shimmer trim! Super cute thank you card.
