Beautiful Flowers and a Butterfly Make a Cheerful Card


 Using the Color Dare Challenge 552 and the Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challenge 528 I made a cheerful card with brightly colored flowers and a pretty butterfly. The flowers and butterfly came from the Daisy Meadow Stamp & Thin Cut set. The sentiment came from the stamp set in the Dream Maker Scrapbook Kit.











Supplies:

  1. Green Turquoise Blend
  2. Citrus Blend
  3. Alpine Green Blend
  4. Dark red Blend
  5. Lavender Blend
  6. Bright Pink Blend
I enjoyed making this card. I always appreciate the inspiration from Atlantic Hearts and Color Dare. Additional inspiration came from Double Trouble Paper Crafting

Thanks to all of you!!!

Fun Fold Flying Cards Any Occasion So Fun to Create!!!

 These cards were super easy to make. It's a nice change to get a nontraditional fold card. The papers I used were floral black and white and spring florals. Any printed paper can be used to go with the particular occasion. The cuts and folds are very easy to do. As you unfold the card and look at it from the top it can look like wings or an M because of the folds.

My Gnomey-Sketch & Color Challenge Make One Card

Once again I used the Mini Garden Gnomes Stamp Set and Thin Cuts. These Gnomes are absolutely adorable and make a sweet card.

I used the Irresistibles cardstock to make the rectangles. It comes in 6 patterns and all you do is choose the color then sponge them.

Melon is our Color of the Year and will only be available through July. There are a full array of coordinating items in Melon, like the little flowers I used. Love Them!

I used the Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challenge and the Color My Heart Color Dare Challenge as the inspiration for the card.



Here's my card:
