A 'Sassy' fun challenge . . .

Happy Friday Everyone!

Unfortunately I got so involved with my Crafting Cave Cleanup that I missed out on a couple of my favorite challenges last week ... so I'm hopping on them right away this week!

First is the fun challenge at Sassy Studio Designs.  It's Dare to be Sassy time and this week's theme is "HAVE A HEART" and I have used last week's Friday Freebie image from their Paper Craft Planet group as my focus.

Inside View

I just started learning how to color with my new Spectrum Noir alcohol markers so this was my first try.  Not too bad but I'm sure will improve with practice.  I used Baby Blue Liquid Pearls on her wings for added dimension.  The corner punch is from Creative Memories and the hearts are from the Martha Stewart large heart punch.  

Here are a few other challenges I'd like to enter this card into:

Crafts 4 Eternity - Be My Valentine

ATCs & Cards with Attitude #33 - Be My Valentine/Anything Goes

Another challenge I always enjoy participating in is the one at Joan's Gardens (every Thursday).  This week Joan & Selma have challenged us to:

• Use Blue, White and Green
• Use a Flower that has a pattern
• Use an Oval
• Use a stamped sentiment
  
  
  I haven't made a paper flower in awhile now ... I was grateful to have the PUSH with this challenge to get back into making a few homemade flowers.
