Love Those Pretty Papers March 2025 Challenge

 

  Hello Dear Friends

It's a new month and that means it's time for a new challenge over on our
LOVE THOSE PRETTY PAPERS blog.

Today, our OPTIONAL theme is
Rainbow Colors
.
 
Diane & I will be sharing a Themed pretty paper card as well as an Anything Goes card.

 Here's my card using today's THEME:

 

 When I saw today's theme, I knew EXACTLY what paper pack to reach for! 
Diane has got me hooked on these beautiful Brutus Monroe papers and  love this one in particular.  And it pretty much has every color in the rainbow!

I don't see where this particular pad is available any longer but there are several other paper pads that are available that are equally beautiful.  You can find them at brutusmonroe.com  or other online stores such as Scrapbook.com and Simon Says Stamps.

 I've used the Impression Obsession 'Special' die for my sentiment.
I've die cut it 3 times from white card stock and once from the scrap piece of Brutus Monroe that I cut off the end for my A6 card size, then adhered them all together for dimension.

  Now for my 2nd card (anything goes) ...


( Inside )
 

Violet Fragrance 6x6 designer paper
Tutti Designs Scalloped oval dies
Tutti Designs Scalloped rectangle dies
Stampin' Up (circa 1999) sentiment stamp (front)

 I hope you've enjoyed what I created to inspire you today!  Please come join our fun and show us what you have created using pretty patterned papers.

Thanks for stopping by and as always . . .

 

Four Seasons Challenge - Spring (3/2025)

 

 Hello Friends

Over at the Four Seasons Challenge Blog, we are ready for a change in seasons! 
This months theme is:

Anything Goes - SPRING

check out this fabulous inspiration board we have created to help inspire you . . .


Inspired by the little lamb in the lower right corner, I went on a mission to see what I might have in my stash.  I actually had a 'baby' image on a sheet of TooMuchFun images so I proceeded to fussy cut him out and showcase him on an over panel die cut using a very old Creative Expressions Sue Wilson Austrian Collection #CED2204.  I've used the 2 largest dies from this set. Then weaves some narrow pink satin ribbon through the opening for dimension.

Thanks so much for stopping by today!

As always . . .
