CC$S #277

Hello! I have had a busy few days. My mom was out of town so I had to keep an eye on my Step Father (who had a brain injury 16yrs ago) , he is a hand full and gave me a hard time. Now that she is home I can relax. I wanted to make something fun and playful with these colors, so butterflies it is. I love to be inspired by my fellow DT members cards , as well as all of you who play along each week. It really helps each of us to think outside of the box. Thanks for stopping by today.

Challenge #31

Hello! I'm back with a card to share for the Holly and the Ivy Christmas challenge. It's been really cool here recently, lots of rain . The weather has me feeling like a snowflake card this week. I used distress oxides over glossy paper and the stamps are PTI (snowflakes) and SSS (sentiment). I like blue backgrounds for snow cards ,but I need to try other colors. Thanks for stopping by today.

CC&S #276

Welcome! Thanks for stopping by today. I'm sharing my card for this week's sketch challenge. I wanted a more interesting background for this sketch. I used broken china and peacock feather oxide inks over glossy paper, then some distress glaze , and buffed with a dry cloth. I added a simple birthday sentiment and that was it.    I can't wait to see what everyone comes up with.

Thanks a ton

Hello! It's been a very busy weekend here, my oldest got his driving permit, errands, laundry that never ends, and got together with a longtime friend. I finally got a chance to play along with this months challenge at CAS watercolor , also playing along with the Create along with us challenge at Papertrey Ink . I love all things ocean so this challenge really spoke to me. The whale and sentiment are from PTI , I used both distress ink and distress oxide ink for the background. I hope to make 2 more for this challenge before it ends as I have a few more ideas I'd like to try. Thanks for stopping by today

Welcome back ! I'm sharing this week's color challenge card . Wei from our DT choose colors that work perfectly for Flowers!!!! Thanks Wei. I've had this floral stamp ( modern peonies by Wplus9 ) on my desk waiting for the right color challenge. These colors and this stamp seemed like the perfect match. I'll be interested to see who else makes floral cards . Thanks for stopping by.

Simply Create too #139

Hello! Welcome back for another fun challenge at Simply Create Too. This month the theme is "for a male" . Now I struggle with cards for men badly. I lean towards florals or butterflies, so if I can't use those elements I'm lost. So I'm really looking forward to all the entries this months, I know I'll find plenty of inspiration. Thanks for stopping by today.

The Holly and the Ivy #30

Welcome back! Today I'm sharing my card for the Holly and the Ivy Christmas challenge . I like to make a variety of different cards for Christmas, some fun, some religious, some classic Christmas. This covers all my card recipients. This fun card was made using the Neat and Tangled's Fa La la Llama stamp and die set. I made several of this card last Christmas for a craft show I participated in and they sold out quickly. I plan to make a few more of this card, in slightly different colors. Thanks for stopping in today, hope you will play along with us.. the challenge is "anything goes".
