CTD280, Blue Poppies

The color challenge for this week was to use vanilla, soft sky, night of navy, and old olive.  What a beautiful combination!!  I had this pretty piece of dp sitting on my desk so I thought I would stamp some poppies on it.  I then stamped an olive one on some vanilla card stock.  I added some ribbon and brads and that was about it. Thanks for looking!!

One of a Kind, CTD279, WT466

I made this card for two challenge - First for the Ways to Use it - We were to use red.  The other challenge was the color throw down challenge - to use pink pirouette, melon mambo, red, and gray.

Mojo331, Enjoy the Little Things

This is for this week's Mojo Monday - #331.  I used SU dp and a sentiment from Verve.  I did a little paper piercing and popped up a couple of panels.

F4A206, SUO, Flowers Everyone

I made this card for the Free For All Challenge on SCS today.  We were to use the word love.  I used all SU supplies except for the sentiment (I just realized that.)  The colors are cantaloupe, slate, and dark gray.  I used the two step flower set Stippled Blossoms.  The ribbon is gray, and the little button is a current cantaloupe piece.  The embossing was a striped one from SU.

The Love of Fall - Acrylic Batik

This is my second card made with the acrylic batik that was featured on SCS this past Wednesday.  There is a great tutorial on it found on SCS.  My bg is meant to look like tree bark.  It took me a while to find the right image to use with it.  I finally came across some old photos I had and used them.  I also added a bit of dry embossing for some more interest and texture.  Thanks for looking!!  Give this fun technique a try.

Acrylic Batik - Delphinium

The Wednesday tutorial done by Dina Kowal on SCS was acrylic batik.  I really enjoyed the technique and results I got.  For an explanation and terrific tutorial please see SCS.

Mojo330 - The Lord's Word

This card was made for this week's Mojo Monday sketch.  I used my new Verve stamps.  The colors are actually pool party and island indigo and look prettier in real life.  I hate when you can't capture the real thing.  Thanks for looking!!
