I haven't had a chance to work on challenges lately so I thought I'd work on some today. But first I visited my LSS because they were having a scrap yard sale. Scrappers rented tables and sold some of their unwanted items. I bought some ribbon and paper -- can never have too much :)
This first card is for the sketch challenge at OWH. I got the sentiment stamp in a group of others and didn't think I'd use it but it fits with this pretty butterfly.
Red, lime green, and grey - who would have thought but the do look pretty together. Go on over to the Play Date Cafe and see how others combined these 3 colors.
The Wednesday challenge last week at OWH was a monochromatic card. I'm not crazy about this completed card but I do like elements of it - the colors, the DP, the tag/ribbon - but it didn't come together like I wanted it to.
I've not kept up with my Christmas cards either. But, I'm happy to say that this card can be used for both the Jingle Belles' and Hazel's challenges.
enjoy your day and thanks for stopping by. Susan

ReplyDeleteHi,
ReplyDeleteMy name is Monica and I happened to visit your blog while I was blog surfing... You make awesome cards and I am your newest follower. These cards here are wonderful - the Christmas tree with the lights looks so very real. The second one with the fake buttons is cute and the first one is so stylishly simple and neat.
I would love it if would you follow me too. Hehe!
