Spring/Summer Coffee Lovers Hop

This is a card I made for the 2021 Spring/Summer Coffee Lovers Hop using the colors from ColorMyHeart Color Dare #436 "TicTacToe" and combining it with the Try Stampin' on Tuesday Sketch Challenge #498 Chose a tea cup die and cut it with one of the design papers from the CTMH Daisy Meadows.  The images, flowers and eggs were fussy cut from the same design paper and adhered with 3D thin foam tape for dimension.  A border die was used for the lace and the eggs replaced the bow in the sketch.  Two mint embellishments were added to the left-hand upper corner.   








Please visit Coffee Lovers Hop, ColorMyHeart Color Dare and Try Stampin' on Tuesday for inspiration and create something for Spring/Summer.  Looking forward to seeng what you have created.

Some Bunny Loves You - Color My Heart Color Dare #436

Here is my Design Team Card for ColorMyHeart Color Dare #436 "TicTacToe" which is the Color Palette for Daisy Meadows CTMH paperpack and I chose to use all the colors.  The Sketch used is from Heart2Heart and perfect for a variety of design papers. 

The floral design paper was used for my background, the other panels were cut to size using one of the other design papers and zip strips and placed as in the sketch.  The bunny in the basket and flowers were all fussy-cut from another design paper and adhered to the panels with 3D thin foam tape. Finished with a sentiment stamped in black in the upper left-hand corner.   







Color My Heart Color Dare challenges are carried forward for two weeks so if you didn't share your project the first week you still have another week to enter that challenge... both of these challenges are on the side bar of the Color My Heart Color Dare challenge blog.

Double Trouble Challenge #51 "Go Green" - HoHoHo

This is my DT card for our DoubleTrouble Challenge #51 "Go Green" with optional twist to use "something gold" and partnering with Heart2Heart "Putting Our Green On".  Rather than making a St. Paddy's Day card...decided to do a Christmas card.  This green plaid was in one of my paperpacks and wanted to use it for my background.  Stamped the tree in White Daisy and a Green Glitter and adhered with 3D thin foam tape to the background.  Stamped, die-cut and colored this adorable Rubbernecker Gnome and adhered with 3D foam tape in front of the Tree.  Added a candy cane, sentiment and a couple snowflakes in gold glitter to complete my first Christmas card this year.  



Please visit us at Double Trouble for this fun challenge,

Back 2 Books "I'm a Big Kid Now" - Color Dare #358


This is my ColorMyHeart Color Dare Challenge #358 "Inspiration Photo". Oh my, what a fun time this was, but very time consuming because I used a lot of Cricut cuts which were pretty small (many were only 1" and for some there were many pieces and colors for one item). Wish I had done individual photos of each piece to show the detail but below are photos from the Cricut Design Space and approximate size of them.

This was my project for our last day of our Buffalo Crop back East and even though some thought I was crazy a lot of input and conversation was shared by all. Gave to one of the girls at the crop because she has a Big "Little Grand" Kid going back to School this Fall.

Color My Heart Color Dare challenges are carried forward for two weeks, so please join us and also check out our previous Challenge #357 which is still open.

Apple image was stamped on Cranberry, Colonial White and NE Ivy Cardstock, each fussy-cut, pieced and adhered with thin foam tape for dimension on sliced apple.  Cup was stamped on Colonial White cardstock and colored with a variety of Copic Sketch pens, fussy-cut and adhered with thin foam tape for dimension. The sentiment tag was a die and cut using Juniper cardstock and adhered to striped background.  The leaves were a die and cut with Fern and Pear cardstock, adhered with glue, edges curled and positioned before the apple and cup were adhered.
