A New Challenge at Cupcake Inspirations-Challenge #595

Hey friends!! 

Just popping in with a NEW challenge over at Cupcake Inspirations Challenge. Challenge #595 is all about COLOR. It is all about creating a project using the colors RED, YELLOW and BLUE.

No sponsor this week so I was able to use some supplies in my stash. Below is the Cupcake Inspirations Challenge Badge for Challenge #595.

I used a ton of products from 49 and Market and dies from The Greetery. 

I love the safety pin die cut. It is so CUTE. I did a bit of smooshing for the lilacs.

Want to join us for this challenge? Head on over to the Cupcake Inspirations Challenge Blog for more information.

Thank you for taking the time to stop by. Have a FABULOUS day!!!

A Couple of Cards and My Anniversary!!

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!!!
