Color Dare #656 Thank You

This is my Design Team project for Color Dare #656 using the Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challenge #633. Chose a CTMH Toffee patterned paper for the background and bordered it with Harbour cardstock.  All the die cuts used for the floral and sentiment were cut from CTMH cardstock, closest match of the three colors in the graphic, and then adhered to the background direct and some 3D foam tape for dimension.  Fun sketch and perfect with our color challenge.  
 





Please hop on over and join us at Color Dare's Color Board #656 and check out the Design Teams inspiration, and then let us see what you create... hope to see you there.
 
If you like to combine additional Challenges... consider hopping over to either Double Trouble "3-2-1 Recipe" and/or our sister challenge Try a Sketch on Tuesday and see how easy it might be to combine one or both challenges with Color Dare.

Try a Sketch on Tuesday #672 "Happy Father's Day"

This is my Design Team project for Try a Sketch on Tuesday (TSOT) Sketch #672  and combining it with our Sister Challenge, Double Trouble #193 using the 3-2-1 Recipe "My Guy".  




The TSOT sketch is perfect for layers and patterned papers. "My Guy", same guy,  but this time is a bird enthusiast and a Father's Day card. Used complementary papers from CTMH's Skylark paperpack and colors that went well with Kraft. The patterned papers were cut and bordered with Toffee (Kraft-like) cardstock and adhered to the white cardbase as in sketch. 

The focal point was a larger cut panel from the Skylark patterned paper and then cut to size and fussy-cut the bird to fall off edge of panel.  A sentiment was stamped on same as one of the panels, bordered with Toffee and adhered to bird panel.  


On the inside a couple of the patterned zip strips from the same paperpack were adhered to the right-hand border. 

Please hop on over to Try a Sketch On Tuesday, check out the Design Team's inspiration for this sketch and share your creativity... hope to see you there.

You may want to hop on over to our sister challenge, Double Trouble to see if you have already met their 3-2-1 Recipe ingredients. If you have, you can enter the challenge and be eligible for random drawing chances... or maybe you just have to add an ingredient to meet the requirement. Hope to see you there.

DTC #193 - 3-2-1 Recipe "My Guy" - Have a "tee-rific" Birthday

This is my Design Team project for Double Trouble #193 using the 3-2-1 Recipe "My Guy" and combining it with our Sister Challenge, Try a Sketch on Tuesday (TSOT) Sketch #672 which starts on Jun 10th. This card will not be entered in TSOT challenge due to the backlinking rule but used as an example of combining the two challenges for interested participants. 




The TSOT sketch is perfect for layers and patterned papers... "My Guy" is a goIfer enthusiast and it was fun looking for complementary papers in his colors that went well with Kraft or Kraft-like colors. The patterned papers were cut and bordered with Toffee (Kraft-like) cardstock and adhered to the white cardbase as in sketch. 

The golfing bag consisted of three cuts, a corrugated blue paper and two Kraft-like colors which were layered and pieced for dimension.  This was adhered to the blue and white checkered panel. 

Also cut a tee and golf ball in Toffee and white glitter layered and placed next to the stamped tee sentiment.  

On the inside corner of cardbase another sentiment was added and some stamped golf balls.



Please hop on over and join us at Double Trouble, have fun with our 3-2-1 Recipe "My Guy" and play along with our optional twist and dare while earning additional chances to our random draw. Check out the Design Teams inspirations, and then let us see what you create... hope to see you there.  

Then hop on over and check out the TSOT Sketch Challenge, check out the Design Teams inspiration, and consider using their sketch with our 3-2-1 recipe.
