Happy Spring - CD #546 "TicTacToe"

This is my Design Team Card for ColorMyHeart Color Dare #546 "TicTacToe using the CTMH paperpack "Cosette".   The cup with flowers determined my choice of colors (using the diagonal French Vanilla, Mist and Peach) and also determine the focal point for the Try Stamping on Tuesday Sketch Challenge #603 including the optional twist to add a sentiment.  Loved the simplicity of the sketch and with plan in place this was probably one of the fastest cards I've created.    
 





The patterned paper in Mist and French Vanilla was perfect for the Cup of Flowers background.  Two banners were cut... the top was Mist adhered to a French Vanilla border and the bottom in French Vanilla using a decorative stitched die in Mist.  Sentiment was added to the lower banner.  

Fussy-cut the cup of flowers for less trim on the edges and adhered with 3D Foam Tape in a couple layers to add dimension and roundness.  


For the inside of the card I added a pocket for a card gift or money using the same patterned paper in the background.

Please hop on over and join us at ColorMyHeart Color Dare Challenge, check out our Design Team inspiration, and let's see what you create... hope to see you there.

Happy Easter - Double Trouble Challenge #107 "Build a Scene"

Here is my DT card for Double Trouble Challenge #107 "KISS - Create a Scene" using Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challenge #467.  If you include Twisted Sister's optional twist you can also enter your card in Cupcake Inspirations #541 "Bunnies".  The bunny stamp already had a good portion of a scene and all it needed was to enhance the green grass and add a blue sky with whisp of clouds.  The scene panel was cut partially so that the bunny was over the edge instead of adding flowers as in the sketch.  

The background is one of my favorite plaids and I always like the combination of polka-dots.  Sentiment was added at the same angle as the scene.

Beach - Double Trouble Challenge #31

This is my DT card for Double Trouble Challenge #31 "Dry/Heat Embossing" and partnering with Pile it On Challenge #  "Transportation/Vacation/Holiday" theme, using the Try Stampin' on Tuesday Sketch Challenge #412.  Decided to use my Cricut Design Space program to put together a beach theme for Vacation/Holiday, Dry Embossing and Twisted Sister's optional twist of a road sign.  A lot of piecing together but pleased with the result. 

Wasn't quite sure how I was going to work in the embossing; but looked through my folders and found one with long grass that reminded me of the beaches in the Outerbanks, and of course the fences separating properties.    






THING 1: Double Trouble
says, "It's time to hit the road."
It's a "dry heat" here in Arizona so include dry and/or heat embossing using the bonus theme at Pile It On "Transportation and/or Vacation" themed project. You can stop here and you have already met this challenge so Pile It On.

Or, if you included Twisted Sister's optional twist below you will receive another chance at our random draw.



THING 3: Twisted Sister
says, "From Easy Street to Broadway I usually take the scenic route. I always have my GPS so I don't take the wrong road." Include a “sign” on your card that you’d see in your holiday/vacation travels.

This is an OPTIONAL TWIST but you will be awarded an additional chance in Double Trouble's random prize draw if you include a sign.







THING 2: Double Dare
says, "Pile It On's theory is to create a project using More than One Challenge." So, if you have created a project for our challenge you will have already reached their requirement by entering your project in Pile It On Challenge #155 "Transportation and/or Vacation" theme.

Check out the Design Team blogs and entrants at Double Trouble and Pile It On to see what other challenges may meet your project and then Pile It On your post too.
