AAA Birthday: January - Tammikuu

It's start of a new year and a new month - and time for a new challenge at AAA Birthday. For this month's challenge, we're asking you to use your two favourite colours on your birhtday cards. As our Guest Designer, we have the wonderful Francesca joining us. There's also a Micro Blog Hop going, I'll share the details later on in this post.

For my two favourite colours, I chose pink (what a surprise, ha ha!) and grey. I coloured this stamped image by Memory Box called All the Happiness with my Copics using pinks and greys. I kept the background simple by adding a panel of light pink cardstock with a grey die cut panel (die cut with Penny Black's Geometric Circles die). I heat embossed my sentiment (it says 'On your birthday') onto a strip of black cardstock and after adhering everything in place, I embellished the card with some light grey sticky back pearls.

And now onto the Micro Blog Hop, the deets are as follows: 

To celebrate the New Year, new beginnings and new blog colours AAA Birthday and AAA Cards are having a micro blog hop.

Fancy winning a £10 spend at an online store of your choice or a second prize of a mystery parcel? Then play along like this:

1. Comment on both AAA Birthday and AAA Cards first 2022 challenge post.

2. For two extra entries into the draw enter a different card at each of the first 2022 challenges.

To accommodate the different timings of the two challenges the Micro Hop will begin at 8.00am UK time on Sunday 9th January and close at 23.55 UK time on Saturday 22nd January.

You can of course enter cards at AAA Birthday before and after those dates, but they will not be a part of the prize draw.

Have fun!

Vuoden ensimmäinen haaste on alkanut AAA Birthdayssä ja sen aiheena on Two Favourite Colours. Eli kahta lempiväriä pitäisi synttärikortissa käyttää. Guest Designerina tässä haasteessa meillä on Francesca. Menossa on myös Micro Blog Hop, jonka tiedot englanniksi tuossa yllä.

Omiksi väreiksini valitsin pinkin ja harmaan ja väritin tämän Memory Boxin All the Happiness -setin leimakuvan niitä värejä käyttäen Copiceilla. Taustalle laitoin pinkkiä kartonkia ja Penny Blackin Geometric Circles -stanssilla stanssatun paneelin. Tekstin embossasin mustalle kartonkisoirolle. Lopuksi kiinnitin kaiken paikoilleen ja koristelin kortin vaaleanharmailla puolihelmillä. 

Mukavaa vuoden alkua ja älä unohda osallistua haasteeseen!
