Elements of Style

This is my entry for the Colour Throwdown #187 challenge.

My creation came from a layout in the April Stampin' Success magazine. I started on a piece of Whisper White cardstock. The stamp is from the 'Elements of Style' stamp set. I used So Saffron, Certainly Celery and Lavender Lace ink. I punched the Purple paper panel with a scallop border punch, and the Lavener Lace butterfly was punch out with a Martha Stewart butterfly punch. The seam binding was hand dyed by me, using Tim Holtz Lettuce ink.

Here are the colors combos:

Thank you for stopping by!

Gold Star

This is my entry for the Mojo Monday challlenge. This has been a very busy week, with working 2 jobs, weight training, and writing a final exam, I have had very little time to relax and craft. I was unable to come up with my own idea and cased this card from Teresa Kline/Paperie Blooms . Now that I am done my course I have a little more free time. Until next time.

Summer Smooches

Today I am entering my card in two different challenges. I always like to pick a color challenge with a sketch challenge. I chose the color combo from Colour Q #130 and the sketch from Just-Add-Ink . I love this new stamp set Summer Smooches, that will be available April 01-30. It's super cute a quite versatile. I began my creation a 4 1/4" x 5 1/2" piece of Tempting Turquoise cardstock. The first layer is Certainly Celery and measures 4" x 5 1/4". The second layer is an embossed piece of Whisper White cardstock and measures 3 3/4" x 5". I stamped the tulips using Melon Mambo, and the other image using Tempting Turquoise, Certainly Celery and Daffodil delight. Here are the sketch and colors:

CASE Study Challenge #133 & Happy Birthday

For this weeks CASE study challenge, I used a variety of papers and embellishments. Michaels was having a 30% off sale on many of their stickers, so a bought a pile and used some in this card. I used many layers of paper with a variety of patterns along with die cuts & embellishments from Martha Stewart to Stampin' Up! and Creative Memories. Happy Sunday! Alyson
