March Challenge at Triple B

  Hello Friends!

Have you checkout our challenge blog called TRIPLE B?
It's all about using any of your stash but your project must have at least a BIRD, a BUTTERFLY or BLOOMS (flowers) visible on it.  Hence the title Triple B.

Here's this months inspiration board ...

Isn't this mood board gorgeous?
I tell you, that Diane is amazing at creating her boards and today's is just breath taking!

Here's what I decided upon for today's card ...

I have used the stamp & die set from Altenew called 'Build-a-Garden - Dear Dahlias' and have used my Tombow markers, an artist brush and water for the coloring.

The background paper is a 6x6 paper pack by Dress my Craft called 'Hydrangea Lawns'

The two 'pink' ovals were left overs from another project that were still laying on the work table and thought they'd be the perfect accent/back drop for my floral spray.  The butterflies are from an old Martha Stewart punch and the sentiment is one of many I have precut and waiting in the wings to be used.

Remember, our challenge begins on the 3rd of each month, ends on the last day of the month and Winner's are announced on the 2nd of each month.

I hope you'll come join in the fun!
Thanks for stopping by today!

As always ...

 

Peace on Earth Challenge #59

 

 Hello Friends and welcome back to my blog! 
SO happy you stopped by!

Today I have a card to share for the new challenge over on the PEACE ON EARTH CHRISTMAS CHALLENGE BLOG.  Of course the theme is Anything Christmas and we hope you'll come join in the fun! 

Here's a fun inspiration board we've created to help get you started ...

 

 I went with a simple design today since I couldn't decide WHAT I wanted to draw from our mood board.  Love the stockings, the pine containers, the baubles but decided on this simple design combination.

I have used a die that I don't think I've ever used before and it's an older one (that tells me I have way too much schtuff!)  It's the Penny Black 'Ornament Branch' (#51-481).  I've used a small Hero Arts sentiment stamp and the pine stamp comes from Stampendous.  I've used two different TH distress oxide inks for my stamping of the pine.

Here's a peek at the inside . . .

 PLEASE be sure to pop over to THE BLOG and check out the amazing designs our design team has created for your inspiration.  What a group of talented ladies!!  Then come join in the fun!! 

  Have a great day!

As always ... thanks again for stopping by!

Two Old Bats - March 2024 Challenge

 

Hello friends and thanks for stopping by today!

It's time once again for a new monthly challenge over on the
Two Old Bats Halloween Blog!

Just wait until you see what the team has created ... OMG!!  And to help us get our mojo going, Diane (yep, my Old Bat partner) has created this fabulous inspiration board. . .

 

 I have had this lime green card stock in my stash for several years now
and I'm happy to have the chance to use some of it!  Here's what
I came up with being inspired by not only the colors but the
spooky spiders ... eeks ... spiders give me the creeps!!

 

The corner stamps is a VERY OLD Inkadinkado stamp and though I
get very little use out of it, I felt it would work perfectly for today's card. 

The sentiment panel came from one of the sheets in my Echo Park 'I Love Halloween'
6x6 paper pad and the glittery spiders were in my scrapbooking stash.

  Just to refresh your memory ... here's a recap of how things are done on our blog.
