Clothing vs Cards

I finally got a card done for the Coffee Lovers Bloghop!

 (stamps: My Favorite Things You're My Cup of Tea, Papertrey Ink Super Stripes/The Sweet Life  dies:Papertrey Ink The Sweet Life)

Inspiration is everywhere...even in my dressing room...

I lay my top on my humangous purse and thought...hey I like that!

It's one thing to walk around in those colors...but making a card is SERIOUS BUSINESS GUYS. ;)

right?!

Lace and a Verse

When I wanted to learn about creating cards many moons ago...I started peeking at card blogs.

I came upon Amazing Paper Grace 

who led me to Our Daily Bread Designs.

I had no idea that such a gorgeous variety of  Bible Verses and images could be found in ONE PLACE.

I was smitten.

I was inspired.


Fast forward to the present...their 8th Anniversary!

 Congratulations Our Daily Bread Designs!

ODBDSLC272~Scripture and Lace

 I usually aim toward CAS, abstract, angled (think architecture)...so the lace factor had me stumped.


I rummaged through my stuff to find these Martha Stewart seals I've had for awhile.

After peeling these off their sheet, I spread them around on Black Soot Distress ink.

They seemed a bit too dark, but

 a baby wipe softened the color~so I placed them on the card.

Those still held quite a stick after going through all that!

The sentiment panel was watercolored (it's what I built up from).

That's the long and short of the creating part.


Getting back to the company...

I'm glad they are still around, serving the Lord. ;)

You have lots of time to participate in the challenge and wish them well.

Yellow, Purple, Pink

I'm feeling a wee bit out there~

fighting something sicky at the moment.

Hence, the reason this tree seems like it's from a dream. ;)

I used poppy dies to give the tree a billowy feel~

Check out the beautiful pastels at this challenge...

Thanks for stopping in. ;)

Colors and Circles

I wanted to try out these colors, and came up with something before the challenge ended.

(stamps:My Favorite Things Bokeh Builder,Verve Birthday to You Plain Jane  die:Spellbinders)

LOVE these colors, esp the lime!

My gray panel IS gray...it just looks almost black.

You still have time...

Simple Journal Card Creation

I had laid out this journaling card when I created with similar colors a few posts ago.

It made a pretty card all on it's own...but I added layers and stamped another sentiment.

Originally I was aiming for St. Patrick's Day~but missed that boat.

No matter...it works anytime the weather is sweet.

It WILL get sweet someday, right?!

Right?!

I used the 80's vibe and modernized it with colors from the following challenge.

I should send it to one of my high school friends...just because. ;)
