Hello everyone!! I hope that you are all doing well.
It is my 24th wedding anniversary. Chris bought me some pretty flowers but we did not do anything special today.
I have no desire to go out anywhere to eat. We did go out for ice cream. Chris hates going anywhere because of the masks!! I still had to commemorate it somehow so I made him take this selfie.
Today I am sharing some cards I created this weekend. The first I created for this weeks
Cupcake Inspiration Challenge # 498.
The challenge was a color challenge to use yellow, white and blue. My blue is NOT the same shade as the photo and I hope this is okay.
I used Reverse Confetti's "Butterfly Wreath"
stamp and
die for my card. I stamped the wreath on a pale blue cardstock and colored the butterflies in with different colored aqua blue pencils.
I mounted the wreath over an A2, top folding white card base that I had splattered yellow and blue mists all over.
This was a fun card to make and I had fun getting messy. I am NOT great at colored pencil coloring, though. I cannot seem to shade no matter how hard I try.
I am going to enter this into
The Daily Marker's 30 Day Coloring Challenge. I have not been great about participating in this challenge this time around but I am glad I did get to color a bit!!
My second card that I am posting was inspired by
THIS card from Karolyn Loncon's
Paper Therapy Blog that I saw on Pinterest.
I used pattern paper scraps to create my flowers. I could probably make 100's of these cards with the amount of scraps I have!!
I chose to CASE her card because my mojo is lost right now. I hate when that happens!!!
This was a lot of fun to create and I will be making a couple more like this at a later date.
Well, that is all from me today. I thank you for taking the time to stop by. Have a fabulous night!!!
