Ribbon Reel Spring Colors & Mojo Monday 241


Today I decided to make a card based on 2 challenges.




I took a piece of Crumb Cake cardstock and ran it through my Big Shot using the stripes embossing folder. I then shaded the edges with some Whisper White craft ink to give the edges a beautiful soft look.  I had a left over piece of polka dot Blushing Bride which have the edges inked aa weel and adhered that to my base.  The second layer is a piece from Melissa France, along with a piece of handmade lavender paper.  I took a cute little doily and stuck a Melissa Frances sticker onto the center and finished it all off with a greenish button and twine.

Thank you for stopping by!

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:

Happy Sunday! Alyson
