2 Challenges

I have been having fun doing challenges this week. They have given my creative juices a boost. I haven't cased a card all week :-) For this card I did 2 challenges. The Clean & Simple FTL123 and Play Date Cafe PDCC66. My daughter crocheted the flower and gave me a little packet of them for Christmas. Thanks Vickie! (Check out her wonderful blog here.)  I used my black marker and the mat pack to get the dotted lines.

Stamps: Teeny Tiny Wishes

Paper: Almost Amethyst, White, Black Textured, Almost Amethyst Prints DSP

Ink: Black

Accessories: Crochet flower, Bold Bright button (ret), black embroidery floss, Scallop Trim border punch, mat pack, black marker, corner rounder

Love You Valentine

I have been wanting to participate in more challenges so I made this card for FTL124.

I didn't have a heart punch big enough so I freehanded the heart and then doodled in it with a Rose Red marker.  The small heart under the button is punched out using the Heart to Heart punch with Rose Red cardstock.  There isn't actually any stamping on this card because I used some rub-ons from Stampin'Up.

Paper: Elegant Eggplant, Rose Red (small heart), Whisper White, Rose Red Print DP

Ink: Rose Red marker

Accessories: Love Impressions Rub Ons, Oval and Rectangle Nestabilities, 5/8" white satin ribbon, Dot EF, Heart to Heart punch (small heart under button), BItty Button, linen thread, Dotted Scallop Ribbon border punch, Scallop border punch
