I made this card for this week's sketch challenge on Stamptv. I have some pink flowers in my yard that I colored these to match. I also have purple Iris blooms, but I decided after the purple card yesterday that 2 purple cards in a row was pushing it a little! *wink*
I've been looking through my stamps... this is one that I haven't used. This week's Color Throwdown #90, is Barely Banana, Old Olive, Rich Razzleberry & Pale Plum. I can honestly saw that I have never used these colors together. 
I'm finally getting around to getting a card made for this week's Card Patterns Sketch 61 -- I am so behind on challenges. I guess that's good... I have plenty to choose from! LOL!
I love this image!!! :D We were supposed to have rain today, so I thought it would perfect... it didn't rain, but oh, well! I've been hoarding this dp from Cosmo Cricket. I didn't have any ribbon that would work, so I colored a cream colored twill ribbon with my B97 copic marker. 
Lee asked me to make a sample for her color challenge. The color challenge for the Gina K. release is turquoise & yellow + one neutral. I cut out the butterfly & popped it up.
The Creative Belli Challenge #89 was to use die cut shapes on your card. I still need a few more Mother's Day cards, so I decided to make this one a Mother's Day card. My May is packed with birthdays, thankfully we don't have any graduation cards. 
The Inspire challenge on stamptv this week was to make a card that would make someone smile & then to send it out. I have a friend who is going through some uncertainty in her job. She loves sunflowers, so she will get a big kick out of this card.
I had to make a post office run today & on our way home, we noticed a new place open for business in our tiny little town. It's a nursery, the flower kind!!! :) We had to stop today & ended up bringing home a few more flowers. My hubby just smiled at my haul!!! :) He had already seen the new seeds that I planted today... I had ordered some seeds on ebay & part of them arrived today. We are going to have flowers everywhere!!! :D :D
This is a double challenge card, the sketch is for the Card Patterns Sketch 59, and for the Moxie Fab Tuesday Trigger: Lovely As a Rose
I'm feeling a little out of my comfort zone. I need a birthday card for a 4 year old girl. Now, I know this will come as a complete shock to some of you, but I don't have that many stamps for little girls! LOL! I don't even own pink stickles!!! I had to use crystal stickles on the pink ice cream. I used this week's Mercy's Tuesday Sketch Challenge
This is for this week's sketch challenge on stamptv. I got it posted just under the wire of the deadline. Whew! Those little pearls were a pain to put on. But, I bought them last June & just opened the package tonight. 
Can you believe it's less than a month away from Mother's Day? I really hope to have all of my cards made before May... it seems like we have a ton of birthdays in May.
A friend of mine called me today... she's a hospice nurse & one of her patients died overnight. She needed a sympathy card & couldn't find one to meet her requirements at the gold crown store she was standing in. She wanted a green & purple polka dot card with yellow accents & purple violets. Could I create something to fit the bill? Since I just *love* purple, I wasn't sure that I would have any purple polka dot paper. I thought I was going to have to make my own, but I did find this little scrap of Almost Amethyst dp. 
The sketch is for this week's sketch challenge on stamptv. I paired it up with this week's challenge for the Crazy 4 Challenge blog-- it was to use Kraft as our base.
I used to participate in the Featured Stamper Challenge on SCS & have gotten out of the habit. When I saw that TheresaCC was the featured stamper this week, I knew I had to participate. This is the card of hers I chose to CASE I think her work is incredible!!! I also paired it up with this week's color challenge on stamptv-- yellow, black & white & whatever color we needed for an accent.
The color challenge at stamptv this week is Kraft, Red & Ivory. I signed up for the Christmas Card Challenge on SCS & let March slip away from me. I decided that I better get a jump start on the April cards.
