Smooches - Color Dare #404 TicTacToe

Here is my Design Team card for our ColorMyHeart Color Dare Challenge #404 "TicTacToe" using the Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challenge #378.   Unicorns and fantasy need Sparkle so glitter paper was used for almost everything. The American Crafts 6 x 6 glitter sheets were used so the colors are the closest match to the TicTacToe.  A lot of Cuttlebug cuts and a lot of piecing... here is my result for an any occasion child's card.

Gnome for the Holidays - Double Trouble Challenge # 62

Here is my DT card for Double Trouble Challenge #62 "Christmas in July", using Twisted Sister's optional twist of "Gnomes and/or Elves" using my "Cuttlebug" so that I can share with Heart2Heart "Your Favorite Tool".  There were so many cute Gnomes on this stamp set and wanted to use them all... so rather than do a card I decided to do some Christmas tags for the Holidays.  And I was certainly putting my favorite tool to work today with (3) tags, (2) trees, and (1) Gnome on each tag.   











Please join us at Double Trouble "Christmas in July" and if you want to use Twisted Sister's twist "gnome/elve" you can earn an extra chance at our random draw. And if you submit the same card to Heart2Heart "Favorite Tool" you have earned another chance at our random draw (or two chances, if you use at least one CTMN product in your project, and mention the item your post).  



Please follow us on Double Trouble Challenge and receive notices of our new challenge on the 1st and 3rd Mondays of the month, and if there is a 5th Monday we run a special one week challenge like this one for our "Something, Everything, Anything", which will be coming up the end of this challenge.

Oh. Yappy Day! - Color Dare #402

Here is my Design Team card for our ColorMyHeart Color Dare Challenge #402 "Blues Monochromatic" using the Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challenge #376The design paper, frame,  sentiment and little pup were in my stash from a make and take that was never completed.  Felt it was a good time to use the Blues... so out came my embossing folder of pet paws and layered it with blue cardstock.  The pup was already colored and I adhered it to the scalloped circle frame with 3D thin foam tape, along with the yappy sentiment.  Before placing the image in place went to see what I had as far as ribbon.  My comfort zone is not making ribbons and when I came across some strings from a tassel knew exactly what I was going to do... make a lease for the pup.  Love the results.

With Sympathy - Double Trouble Challenge #61 - TicTacToe shared with Cupcake Inspirations

This is my DT card for Double Trouble Challenge #61 "Puzzling TicTacToe" and partnering with Cupcake Inspirations, using the sketch from Just Add Ink Challenge #512.  Cut the three panels and put a Wisteria border on them.  The floral was a fussy cut from one of the Every Little Thing design papers, partially colored with Copic pens and adhered with 3D thin foam tape. Added the smaller middle of the flower and layered with foam tape for another dimension.  

The vellum butterfly was colored with the same colors as flower, small black beads for the butterfly's body and adhered with 3D thin foam tape.  Sentiment was added directly on card.  

This card was made for one of our members and close friend of Our Little Crop Group, whose son was in a fatal motorcycle crash.  Our prayers go out to her and family.  









Please join us at Double Trouble "TicTacToe" and if you want to use Twisted Sister's twist "sequins/pearls" you can earn an extra chance at our random draw. And if you submit the same card to Cupcake Inspirations, using flowers and pearls, you have earned another chance at the random draw.
