Just Magnolia + Just Cute Bears

Afternoon all - how are we doing today?  Had my dose of excitement for the day with the Formula 1 Turkish Grand Prix so been calming myself down with a couple of challenge cards.

The first is for JUST MAGNOLIA Hot & Spicy challenge

My inspiration for this one came from Chef Edwin, reminds me a little bit of James Martin (phwoar)!  I paper pieced his trousers with a scrap from a Little Sizzlets pad, the main papers with the spicy colours are Basic Grey.  Background recipie is Chicken Jalfrezi!

Second card is for JUST CUTE BEARS Thank You challenge and you might need sunglasses for this one!

Who could resist this little Lili Of The Valley ted with a huge bouquet of flowers?  Sentiment is LOTV as well. Papers are all Doodlebug and matting is DCWV.

Well, that's me nicely serene and calm again, so off downstairs to get dinner sorted so I can be a couch potato in time for Terry Pratchett's "Going Postal" that's on Sky 1 tonight.  Can't wait!  Catch you all tomorrow.

Hugs, Squirrel xx

I agree with you Squirrel, making cards is so relaxing! I love both! Your chef looks great (love the trousers) and the idea of the recipe is brilliant! And I can't resist your second card... This bear is so cute and your colouring is amazing! I love the colours you have used for the flowers and the papers are just perfect, especially on such a rainy day...! Enjoy your evening! Hugs Delphine xx PS: Thanks for your lovely comments :-)

Both of these are totally adorable Squirrel ... I love how you've found some checked paper to piece Edwin's trousers (I'm sure this would qualify for Pile it On "eat your veggies too lol!) and your ted is so sweet - one of my fave stamps att the moment.
Hope you're having a great weekend
hugs
