I Used Some Patterned Paper

Hi there.  I'm so glad you stopped by!

I often say that I'm patterned paper challenged.

I love to buy it and take it out and look at it, but usually can't figure out

what to do with it and put it away for another day.

This paper is so pretty and I've used almost the whole pad.  We used a lot of

it in my last class.  I had this piece leftover.  

I did this a little different from the class card and added a larger heart cut from

white cardstock instead of using the eclipse technique.  A few butterflies and a

sentiment stretched across the front changed it up a bit.

This is what the class did...

Maybe I should order some more?

Challenges:

Seize the Birthday #299 - Add a Heart

Love those Pretty Papers - Did not use the option of red

Coral and Yellow for Color Hues

Hi there.  I'm so glad you stopped by!

It's mid month and time for another Color Hues Challenge and this month

I am hosting and got to choose the colors.  

The colors I chose are.....

I chose to use the coral on this lovely die cut butterfly.  Don't you love the details and layers

on the edges?  I added some little punched flowers for whimsy.

The background was smooshed into Mustard Seed ink spritzed with water, dried then

smooshed with some spritzed Calypso Coral.  I blotted it some when wet to keep it light.

The very talented Design Team and our Guest Designer, Teresa, have some 

beautiful cards to inspire you.  I can't wait to see what you can do with these colors!

Please join us at Color Hues.

This challenge is open until February 29th at 9:00 AM EST.

Floral Love

Hi there.  I'm so glad you stopped by!

I'm excited to be Guest Designing at AAA Colourful today and it's a special day

for them.  Happy 1st Birthday, AAA Colourful! 

Here is the colour board for this month.

 I understand that there are prizes to be won, so be sure to join in

for a chance to win.  They have very talented Designers and I know you'll

be inspired when you see them.

To make this card, I stamped and heat embossed with a floral background stamp and

used a wet on wet technique for the colors.  I die cut a heart from the background

and added it back in with some foam behind it.  I believe that's called the eclipse technique.

I used deep purple cardstock for the die cut love and sentiment strips.
