Merry Monday 97

This week's Merry Monday challenge is a colour combination, one of my favorites of aqua, silver & white. I used a combination of silver & grey because my silver embossing powder  doesn't always photograph well. Also used Verve stamps, dies & ribbon. Thanks for looking!

Dynamic Duos 91 Triple Threat Week

 This week the Dynamic Duos challenge  uses three colours instead of two. I've used the Stampin Up set Tart n Tangy, I thought it would go well with the vibrant colours and  some Stampin Up punches. The sentiment stamp is Verve. Thanks for looking!

Mojo Monday 334

I had another chance to try a Tall & Skinny card for this week's Mojo Monday 334. I'm sure it will get easier every month and by the end of the year it will come more naturally. Last month I did a Tall & Skinny thank you and this month I've done a birthday. I'm going to do a mix of thank you, birthday and sympathy and at the end of the year I'll have twelve cards to give to my mom on her January birthday. I've used Verve stamps and dies, thanks for looking!

Viva La Verve February Week 2

For  Viva La Verve  February week 2 I went blues and yellows with Verve stamps and dies. I'm so over Valentine cards for this year :)  Thanks for looking!

Merry Monday 96

I've used mostly Verve stamps and dies for this Merry Monday Christmas card. The theme is to use Holly on the card and for that I dug out an older set from Stampin Up and stamped and embossed the Holly leaves. The berries are some larger stick on rhinestones I found at the dollar store. Thanks for looking!

Freshly Made Sketches 123 & Dynamic Duos 90 Black & Yellow

I needed to make a wedding card and I'm hoping with these colours and layout that there is a balance of masculine and feminine incorporated here. I've used the current Freshly Made Sketch and Dynamic Duos colours with a Verve sentiment, die and ribbon. Thanks for looking!


 

Merry Monday 95

 
 I've used an older stamp set with three merry Penguins for the Merry Monday challenge use a critter on your card. I think the stamp may be  from Stampendous and the sentiment is from Stampin Up on a die cut from Verve. Ribbon is Verve too. Thanks for looking!

The Paper Players 182

The Paper Players 182 challenge this week is a colour challenge. My card didn't photograph as well as I would have liked, the gold against the peach (the closest I had to Crisp Cantaloupe) don't have enough contrast. I've used Verve stamps and dies for this card plus the Stampin Up Upsy Daisy stamp. Thanks for looking!

Paper Players 181



This week's Paper Players Challenge is a theme with food or treats plus a Valentine. I used an older Stampin Up Stamp that says Hugs & Kisses and then a Verve stamp set and some Verve dies. I've got a little bag of chocolate hearts in this picture but I may get some Hershey's Hugs & Kisses to go with the sentiment, which means I will have to eat these chocolate hearts! Thanks for looking!
