Well we are off to another week. I cannot believe it is the middle of April already. Time is passing so quickly. Soon my youngest will be moving to California for a year and my oldest will be moving back to the area for 3 years. So many changes coming up. My card today was created using 2 challenges. I used the color challenge from Diva Coffee Break Designs. I combined it with the sketch…
I spent some time in my stamp room yesterday. I played with something different on my card I am sharing with you today. I started with the color challenge at the Color Dare/ blog. The colors were Lovely Lilac, Pale Plum, and Tempting Turquoise. I didn’t have any problem with the Lovely Lilac and Tempting Turquoise but the Pale Plum I thought would be the problem. I have to say the colors do go together…

I used the sketch from Mary Jo’s…

I was inspired by this card by Chera and by a card that someone made (can’t remember who) that used strips of red, white, and blue at the bottom. I used the small star punch to create a stencil which I…
Edited after picture! Today I played with an inspiration challenge at Hand Stamped Sentiments. There was a picture collage that you were to use and create a card or project . When I saw the picture I was drawn to the ivory shell pillow. I thought it would be fun to create a monochromatic card using Very Vanilla. I used the Perfect Details template to make the back layer and added to card base with…
Glad you came back to check out my Easy Peasy card. This is a card you can create in about 10 minutes. This is a 4 1/4″ square card. I used some of my Cottage Wall DS paper for the background (I love this paper and will be so sad when it retires). I added my ribbon at the bottom. I stamped the sentiment and butterfly. Round the edges of your sentiment and cut out…
