CR84FN 33-Wishing You

Another view of the card.

A close up view.

And the inside of the card.

Hi there!

I finished up a card for one of my favorite color challenges over at CR84FN33.  It was a great opportunity to make an anniversary card for my sister.  I used one of my favorite Hero Arts stamps and got out a copic marker to color the hearts on the butterfly.  I cut the flower from K&Company paper.  Some lace was placed behind the butterfly.  I used some glitter dots and placed them on the heart trim and bow.  And some pretty red and pink pearls to finish off the card.  I hope you are enjoying your week.  Take care and thanks so much for visiting today, hugs!

PDCC #89- Thanks So Much

A closer view of my card.

Hi there!

I relaxed in my craft room last night after a busy work week.  Crafting gives so much enjoyment by getting your mind off of things and just letting the creative energy flow into a card.  Don't you think?!:-)  Anyways, I had fun making this card for the challenge over at The Play Date Cafe.  I didn't have any light green mint paper, so I went more bright.  The closest I had for mint was this paper from Basic Grey.  I wasn't going to post this card, but I am happy with it even though it has brighter colors than the challenge colors.  I couldn't resist using the Martha Stewart flower and border punch. So Saffron ink was added to the border and ribbon.  To fninsh off my card I added a mint button, pearls, and some sewing.  Well, I better scoot and get some work done around here.  Have a lovely weekend and take care, hugs!:-))

Hi there! 

I hope you are enjoying your week!  TGIF!  Just thought I'd share with you this card that I made for the challenge over at The Shabby Tea Room.   I used up some of my stash of paper, ribbon, and buttons.  Also, I so often neglect my Cricut machine and put it to use for the stars.  I found some glitter that had little stars in it and just couldn't resist using it for this card.  Star paper, stars, and star glitter.  Are you seeing too many stars?!:-)  Thanks so much for visiting here today.  Have a great weekend and take care!:-))

Photo inspiration with colors of Redish/orange, yucky yellow, and juniper!

Hi All!

How's it going?  Hope your weekend is going well!  What a challenge over at The Play Date Cafe this week!  Those colors were quite the challenge for me!  My paper and button are reddish/orange, but the photo looks like they are more of a pink color.  Anyways, it was fun creating this card for a co-worker's birthday this month.  It sure is a steamy hot day today!  We are thinking of ordering a pizza and watching a movie.  Thank goodness for air conditioning!  Ok, thanks so much for visiting here today!  Take care and have a great weekend, hugs!!!:-))
