 Greetings -

I love the stamps and dies from Newton's Nook Design, so when I saw this Inky Paws challenge I had to play along.

I stamped the NND image in versafine sepia ink and used colored pencils to add color. The sentiment comes from SSS.  Then panel was die cut (Reverse Confettii) and placed on an orange cardbase. 

I am also adding this card to the Time Out Gallery - Festive.  And to the Freshly Made Sketches challenge.

     

Thanks so very much for visiting.

 Hello-

A quick CAS card for CAS Christmas.  I'll probably make a few more for my stash with other holiday greetings. CAS Christmas is asking for Pine as their theme this month. 


The bough is from Stampin up and I added a few red gems to add small bits of color.

 

Thanks for visiting.

Hello-

I am sneaking in almost at the wire to Cupcake Inspirations. The challenge is a color challenge for pink, gray and white. 



I have such a hard time with those darned slimline cards and photographs. I played again with Pink Fresh's Floral Notes.

 

Thanks for visiting.

 Hello-

Two challenges come together to provide the inspiration for this card. 

I used Pink Fresh's Floral notes Stamp, Stencil for coloring and Die to cut the image out.  It makes for quite a quick card, and I love the big image.

My card will visit the galleries for:

Just us Girls - Stencil  

Addicted to Stamps and More - Die Cuts and Stencils


   

Thanks so much for visiting.

 Hello there-

The temps are starting to come down some, so I am spending more time upstairs. It seems the humidity seems to linger upstairs so even with the AC the stickiness bugs me and I tend to stay  downstairs where it is cooler.  

Again I have two cards for you which were inspired by three challenges.  In order of challenge closing:

Less is More has a theme of Butterflies.  I hope just one will do... I used the sketch from Just Add Ink for the card design,



 


My second card goes to Double D Challenges with a Theme of Lighthouse.


 


Time to go make some food, thanks so very much for stopping by!
