Evening's stuff

I'm back!! After a pretty much laid back (and unusually craft-free) weekend, I'm very happy to have had a Sunday evening all for myself. On the card-making field, Sundays are usually exciting days for me, with many new challenges popping out, and I'm usually getting a good 'coverage' of some of them on that same evening.
I was hoping to do some more tonight, but I'm quite tired already and I might just call it a day.
None the less, I've got two cards to show you, and both of them I really like. I hope you do too!

The first card is for the Verve sketch ( VLVApr2011 week 3), and I used the colours of PDCC77:

My second card follows the Cardabilities sketch, and the colours of Embellish Crochet Trim Color Trends Challenge. I really dig these colours :)
