All is calm - TMS #775

Happy Tuesday to you!  It's time for Tuesday Morning Sketches!  I make Christmas cards all year long for another design team, but as we get into fall, I usually need to make more, so that's what I did for this challenge...

My paper is O Holy Night from Hobby Lobby.  The sentiment/image were cut from the paper, too, using CottageCutz Double Stitched Ovals.  i colored a few adhesive dots to match for the circles in the corner.  

Here's our sketch...

You make my day brighter - C4G #234

 Hi!  Thanks for stopping by.  It's time for a new challenge at Cardz 4 Galz!  Our theme for this challenge is "use any coloring medium."  I used my alcohol markers... a mix of Copics and Spectrum Noir.  

Here's my card...

This panel came from Honey Bee Stamps with my last order, so I colored it, trimmed it, and added it to a black card base.

So thankful for you - TMS #774

happy birthday - TMS #773

Happy Tuesday to you!  It's time for Tuesday Morning Sketches!  We've got a super fun sketch this week, and here's my card for this week... 

I started with 5 1/2 x 5 1/2 square card.  My hexagons were cut from the cutting and embossing folder from Sizzix Impresslits Sweet Friend.  My paper (and the fussy cut flower) is Simple Stories simple vintage botanicals.  (Sadly, the last few scraps of it.)  My sentiment is Sweet n Sassy Stamps Script Sentiments.  I added a few adhesive dots as it felt a little too plain.  

Here's our sketch...

sending love - C4G #233

Happy Thursday to you!  It's time once again for a new challenge at Cardz 4 Galz!  Our theme is "It's hip to be square!"  We want to see you use squares on your card or make a square card.  Here is mine...

I started by trimming an A2 card to make it square.  I cut a Kraft panel with Spellbinders Postage Stamp and dry embossed it with TH (Sizzix) Air Mail EF.  I inked the edges with ColorBox Cocoa.  My sentiment panel and dotted strip and butterfly were all cut from Simple Stories simple vintage botanicals.  Easy peasey, but fun.

JOY - SCC #164

 September is here and fall is not far behind!  Yay!  But no matter the season, we are making Christmas cards at Sparkles Christmas Challenge!  This month's theme is "sentiment as focus."  Here's my card...

It's hard to get a good pic of gold paper!! 

The main sentiment is Poppystamps Double Joy die.  "to the world" is from Kraftin's Kimmie Nativity Stamps.  The MFT Die-namics Christmas Ornaments were cut in gold paper then dry embossed with CB Swiss Dots, CB Holly Ribbons, or Lifestyle Whimsy. 

Be sure to come play along with us at Sparkles Christmas Challenge and show off your sentiments!
