Some Cards for Challenges

Hello!! Just popping in to showcase some cards for a few challenges.

For my first card I created for Freshly Made Sketches #432 and The Card Concept #133.


I was inspired by the bouquet at the Card Concept and the Sketch below:


I used WPlus9's The Little Things stamps and dies for the all my stamping. (And yes, I know there is a misspelling in the sentiment. Didn't know it until this was already created. Sending it to someone that won't care.)


The lace border is from PinkFresh Studio Lace Edgers 1. The inks used were a combination of PinkFresh Studio and Altenew.


I am in LOVE with this stamp set!!!

For my next card, I used the Just Us Girls Photo Challenge #533 and the Color Throwdown #590.

 

I created my next card with scraps from my desk that I had left over from another project.


The flowers and the butterflies are from Reverse Confetti. I used the Butterfly Wreath and the Butterfly Wreath Confetti Cuts for the images. I colored then in with Copic Markers. 


The sentiment is from Simon Says Stamp and the pattern paper is a HALLOWEEN scrap!!!


I just LOVE this card and how it came out!!!

For my LAST card that I am posting today is for the As You See It Challenge #224-Flowers and this weeks Time Out Challenge Photo Inspiration. I used flowers from Altenew New Beginnings and Sweet Pea flowers for my focal point. The green and other colors were inspired from the Time Out photo.


Here is my card:


I used Copic Markers to color in the flowers and used Shabby Shutters Distress Ink and a stencil for the background.


I used Aqua Shimmer Pen and Glossy Accents in the center of the yellow flower.


That is all from me tonight. I thank you for taking the time to stop by. Have a FABULOUS night!!
