A Few Cards for some Challenges

Hey Crafty Friends!! 

I am just popping in with some cards I created for some challenges. My first card I created for this weeks Freshly Made Sketches #705.

I decided to flip the sketch for my card like Michele Ferguson.

I used some new to me supplies on my card. I used an MFT Stitched Ovals to die cut a piece of Prima pattern paper-My 3 Girls Tale. I layered some of the matching ephemera over the top and added a sentiment from the Bugs and Hisses by Poppy Stamps.

The background is the Exposed Brick embossing folder from Stampin Up! and my background paper is from Spellbinders.

My next card I created a card for The Color Throwdown #841.

Once again I used some new supplies that I bought from Concord & 9th. 

I used the Sentimental Florals stamp set and matching dies for this card. It was so fun to use these colors on a card-something I never would have done on my own.

I used a Distress Tool around the edges and used an A2, top folding piece of cardsdtock that matched the background.

My last card I created was for The Card Concept #219.

I had a blast making some mixed media butterflies that I die cut using Memory Box's Canyon Butterflies. The flowers and Spellbinders September Die of the Month-Acorn Acres.

The sentiment is from my stash. The background is a linen background from Honey Bee Stamps.

I made this last week and used last week's Freshly Made Sketches #704 but didn't have time to post it.

I hate when I make cards and then don't get to put it on my blog!!!

That is all from me today. Thank you for taking the time to stop by. Have a FABULOUS day!!

Once again I printed out my image, colored it in with Copic Markers and cut the digital stamp into a circle.

I added the image over a card front that I had adhered a dry embossed white panel and some pattern paper.

Fall Cards

 Happy Saturday!

Just popping in with some cards that I created using a mixture of old and new products created for some challenges. 

I had fun creating this using a bunch of stuff from my stash. I used this weeks Freshly Made Sketches #703 and the Inspired By #353 Challenge as my inspiration.

The sentiment is from Simon Says Stamp!, and the embossing folder is Falling Leaves from Spellbinders.

My second card I used this weeks Color Throwdown #840 and CAS on Friday#317-Fall.

I had fun using the Postage Stamps Folder and Dies from Spellbinders.

Once again I used the same embossing folder by Spellbinders. The ginkgo leaves are from The Greetery. 

I ink blended the leaves with Distress Ink in Mustard Seed and Peeled Paint.

My last card I created because I had extra ginkgo and the rectangle frame on my desk.

The sentiment is from PinkFresh Studio. The pattern paper is from Newton's Nook.

Not sure I like the orange paper for my sentiment but the other colors I tried just didn't look great. This was the best of the worse.

Well, that is all from me today. Thank you for taking the time to stop by.
