HARVEST SILHOUETTE CARD

Hi Everyone! Fall is here and I've used a beautiful harvest style stamp from Quietfire Design. It's new and you can find it HERE and on sale!

I used the COLOUR Q challenge-

Black, white and Cajun Craze.

 

I used these stamps from the set, on the inside of the card.

The card layout comes from Mojo Monday 

 

Again, I managed to use two challenges on one card. I know, there are artists that use WAY more challenges at one time. Baby steps :)

 

Have a ridiculously and incredibly amazing day!

 

Thank you for stopping by.

 

 

 

CASE THIS SKETCH AND COLOUR Q CHALLENGE CARD

Hi! I took on two challenges today- I am getting so bold! 

This super simple card is basic stamping and matting onto the card base.

That's it.

Couldn't be easier.

The card uses a sentiment stamp from Quietfire Design and floral stamps from Stampin' Up!

 

I'm playing at Cas(e) This Sketch .....

 

...and Colour Q.

 

Hope you are enjoying this lovely extended summer we are having here in BC.

 

Thanks for stopping by!

 

COLOUR Q & CTS CHALLENGE

Colour Q has chosen a pretty palette for us to use.

Case This Sketch brings us this cute arrangement.

 

Here's my take on the two together.

It's hard to see the three flat backed pearls on the small panel,

but they are there.  :)

 

Click the links, HERE and HERE to see loads of other entries for these challenges.

Give one or both a try and have fun!

 

Thanks for looking!

 

Q'S & C'S

Are you wondering what Q's & C's means?

Q is for Quietfire Design- sentiment stamp, and Colour Q- colour challenge.

C is for CAS(E) This Sketch and again for Colour Q, if you like.

FUN! Love, love, love clean and simple sketches.

Colour Q Is always fun and Quietfire Design always has a stamp that will work.

 

Thanks for looking!

 

Edited to add:

Imagine my embarrassment to find that the CAS(E) this Sketch I used here was LAST weeks challenge!  Now I'm just laughing at myself.  :)

I still like the card.

 

 

CUPCAKES & COLOUR Q

This card makes me happy.

The challenge at Colour Q combines these cheerful colours.

 

The cupcakes and Happy Birthday are a set from Quietfire Design and it has one more stamp that says 'Let them eat cupcakes'. The pretty ribbon came from there too.

 

I've been busy sorting and cleaning in the craftroom lately, and have a lot more to do. I look forward to the creative breaks to share here with you.

Thank you for looking!

 

 

 

 

 

MOTHERS- HEARTS FOREVER

Colour Q presented this great button bracelet for inspiration this time around. It shouts Spring!

 

Less Is More has a challenge using a frame.

 

I jumped at using the colours and the frame, knowing it was an opportunity to ink up another new stamp from Quietfire Design. Another beautiful stamp from Suzanne. Love her style!

 

You can click on the names and see other entries, and the new stamps are still on special.

 

Thanks for stopping by!

 

 

 

ARE YOU SEEING GREEN?

 

It's March. Have you noticed that in March, GREEN is used a lot? It's a nice change from the colours of winter. Colour Q has greens this week and look at that beautiful bracelet. They always find the best photos to pull the challenge colours from. I'm also sharing my card at Less Is More. The challenge is using stripes and spots.

I love the boldness of this Quietfire stamp. It comes as a set of two, with the same sentiment in two sizes- this one is the larger one.

 

Thank you for looking today and I hope you are inspired by some March green.

 

COLOUR Q & THINKING OF YOU

Tulips for Spring. Colour Q is giving us a peek at what we can hope to see in a month or so. These ones will last much longer. :)

 

Now that I see this card, I wonder if I shouldn't have reversed the colour placement. I mean, calypso coral for the background and daffodil delight for the butterflies, still edged with cherry cobbler.

For now, I'll share the technique used here.

It's called Puzzle Piece Resist and you can find the full tutorial HERE. 

This shows the clear embossing and the puzzle piece butterflies .

 

 

You can see what others have done with the Colour Q challenge HERE.

 

I hope you can find some time to try the colour challenge and/or the technique.

Flex some creative  muscle today!

 

Thanks for stopping by- I appreciate it.
