I ended up using only 3 of the colors on my card and I got to use my new Ruby Rose set :-)

1 Card - Many Challenges

Hi! Happy Saturday!  Here's a card I made yesterday that fits with several challenges.

Simon Says Stamp Challenge - Flower Power, CASology: Bloom, colourQ #189 and CAS(E) this Sketch #28.   Can you believe that? 4 sketches!


  

 




I made this card because my daughter says I've doing too many geometric cards. This is for you Liz :-)

I first stamped the sentiment and then positioned it so I could see where to stamp the flowers. Then I ran the stamped flower panel through my Big Shot using the linen impression plate.  The sentiment panel is up on dimensionals.  That's about it.  This card will go into my stash for Operation Write Home.  If you haven't heard of it check it out!  Have a great weekend!




Supplies by Stampin'Up unless noted:
Stamps: Bloomin' Marvelous (SAB), Irresistibly Ikat (PTI)
Paper: Ruby Red, White 
Ink: Ruby Red, Calypso Coral, Certainly Celery, Versafine Onyx Black
Accessories/Tools: Framelits-Labels Collection, Linen and Canvas Impression Plate (PTI), dimensionals

My Grandson is 3 Months Old!

This is for the 3 month birthday of my grandson, Titus.  It also sneakily is for the Seize the Birthday Challenge and the Simon Says Stamp Challenge for things with wings.

The theme for his bedroom is red, white and blue and also transportation. So for her baby shower my older daughter and I made a a bunch of these little planes, some cars and trains and hung them from bare tree branches as a centerpiece on the table.  I thought it would be cute to use one on his card.  You can't see it well in the picture but the red glimmer paper is all sparkly and pretty.  Hope he likes it! Thanks for stopping by.

Retro Sketches #63 and Dynamic Duos #52

My original plan was to make a card for The Alley Way Stamps Be Inspired Challenged.  I don't have any TAWS stamps so I printed out the free bird image.  That was a couple days ago. I sat down this afternoon to make a card and got caught up in the Retro Sketches layout and then the Dynamic Duos color challenge and didn't remember that the TAWS challenge was also a color challenge. Oops!  So I guess I don't qualify for that challenge anymore.  I still had fun making this bird card :-)

The DD Challenge is celebrating their one year anniversary and they are letting up pick from all their past challenges. I chose the yellow and black combo from DD#3.





Both the bird and the arrow are popped up on dimensionals. Hope you like my little bird. I think he's kinda cute!






Supplies:
Stamps: TAWS free digital bird image, Love Ya Bunches  sentiment (SU), Sketched Shapes (PTI)
Paper: Brights DSP Stack (Daffodil Delight), White  (SU)
Ink: Daffodil Delight marker (SU), Versafine Onyx Black
Accessories: Teresa Collins & My Mind's Eye enamel dots, dimensionals
Tools: Sketched Shaped die (PTI)


Edited: I got a Dynamic Darling honorable mention for this card. Yay!
