Papertrey Dolls Congrats to Laurie Beth Blog Hop!!

Good Morning and Welcome to the last stop (I am running a bit late...sorry)  on the Papertrey Dolls' Blog Hop in honor of Laurie Beth's top 10 in the Idol Challenge over at Paper Crafts.

Our challenge was to CASE one of Laurie Beth's projects.   

Here is my card:

Here is Laurie's card.   Its more of a CAS than a CASE, but I love her simple style and her use of white space.

Hope you enjoyed the HOP!

Colour Q # 94 and OTWC #57

What a unique group of colors!   The girls at Colour Q should pick out some fun combos!   I am also entering this in OTWC #57 for their anything beach challenge.    We used a sketch that I found on pineterest which you can see here.

Papertrey Dolls Challenge # 38 and #40

Hello All,

I cant remember if we said that it was a NO NO to double up on challenges?   I was working on Deena's challenge to use a background stamp, and at the last second I added a wedding sentiment.    So I am posting this card for both....hope that is ok "wink"

Sara Mac's challenge was to make a wedding or anniversary card.    I haven't needed a card for either of these, but I noticed that Giga Guidelines had a wedding sentiment that I liked, so I inked it up.

The background was tough!!   Glad I was forced to breakout a background stamp :)

Thanks!

Papertrey Dolls Challenge # 37

I am behind on PTD's challenges, so I thought I would focus on catching up this week.  My first one is for Suzanne's patterned paper challenge.   Just trying it, helped me understand how difficult it is, as many of you have mentioned.  I am not really happy with the result, but after messing with it forever, I just glued it down.

One new thing I messed with for this challenge was die cutting patterned paper.  It has some potential, but I am not there yet.

I am so thankful for this forum that pushes me to try new things.

Here is my card:

Thanks for looking!

Scraping on the go

Hello Everyone,


I am posting from Southern California.   We packed up the minivan and drove for three days to get to the coast.   My DH was kind enough to let me bring tons of scrap stuff, but I still miss a few things I forgot.   Oh well, necessity is the mother of invention as they say.


Here are two similar cards I made this am.    I have two people who have had accidents in the past two weeks, so I made them some get well cards.

You can see the background on the lower one is a palm tree.   Everything grows so well out here.   Its quite a change from the burnt dirt of Texas.

Looking forward to some of my homies coming out to visit.

Wishing you all well!

Embellish #2 and CAS-ual Fridays

This is my second card for the Embellish Magazine challenge. 

Again I also used the CAS-ual Friday challenge as well.   It was so fun!

Hope you will go check these challenges out!

Thanks for looking :)
