I have to say that this probably was one of my favorite challenges. As soon as I saw the sketch I knew what I was going to do.

The Next Level Challenge for the week was to create a card using the following image:


This is what I came up with. Unfortunately we are having another cloudy day here in the Midwest so you cannot see the sparkle beads in the center of the flowers.

Challenge 44 - Father's Day

This week at Cupcake Craft Challenges the challenge was to create something for Father's Day that was more than a card. Here is a picture of a trail mix jar I made for my dad with some close-ups. The cover slips off so that the jar can be washed and refilled with more trail mix.

And this is the card I made earlier in the week for him.

I really liked using the color combination of melon, maize, and pure white. Let me know what you think.

Color Throwdown #47

This week at Color Throwdown, the challenge was to create a card using the following color combination:

This had to be one of the hardest challenges for me as I usually don't use such a bold color combination on my cards. I prefer more muted colors, but I still think this card came out pretty cute.

Friday Sketchers # 56

This week's challenge at Friday Sketchers was to create a card using the following sketch:

Using my new humming bird stamp from Inkadoo and flower stamp from Cloud9, I came up with this cute card.

This is the best picture I could get of the card. We are still experiencing a lot of rain and cloudy days in the Midwest. Unfortunately it means that my photos come out dark or with shadows. For this card, you can't really see the stickles and sparkle on the flower or humming bird.

Sketch Saturday - Sketch #55

Sketch Saturday posted sketch #55 and I knew that I had to try it out with the new Technique Tuesday stamps that I purchased.

Here is my little ballernia card for the little ballernia in my life:
