Kitchen Sink Crew Challenge #24

I used the large sunflower that I won in last month's Crew Challenge to make the Hip to be Square card for this month's challenge. I used a square card, square panels, and my cuttlebug folder with squares to emboss onto the panels and card. The sentiment is from the daisy set. I am using up some of my soon to retire summer sun cardstock from Stampin' Up. The other colors are kiwi kiss from SU, lime freeze and hazelnut tan (both from Mark's Finest Papers).

MOJO Monday 135

I used the set from Mark's Finest Papers called Spring Breeze for today's Mojo Monday sketch. The card base is hazelnut tan from Mark's Finest Papers as is the ribbon. I used a scrap of design paper and a scrap of Basic Grey design paper for the card and also SU's basic black. I colored the image with my copic markers. I stamped the image and sentiment with Memento's Tuxedo black.

Color Dare #63

This week's colors for the color dare challenge are some of the retiring Stampin' Up colors:

pale plum and lovely lilac together with tempting turquoise.Glad the turquoise is sticking around.

I use the medallion stamp in the tempting turquoise pad. I hope Riley had a great spring break, that everyone had a happy Easter, and that all of you will join us in the Color Dare Challenge this week. Post your card to Mr. Linky here.

Belli Challenge #89

This week's image is a digital image from Sweet n' Sassy. The challenge for this week is to use diecut shapes. I used one of my new spellbinder set.I also used  some nestabilities for the tag. The design paper is from my favorite company, Basic Grey. The cardstock is pink pirouette, which Stampin' Up is bringing back--yeah!!! I liked it with the kraft paper and  white natural. I colored the image with my copic markers. The sentiment is from Sweet n' Sassy as well.
I hope you will join us using some of your favorite die cut shapes. Go over to the Creative Belli Challenge blog to link your card to Mr. Linky.

FLLCAPR10 Cherries

Not liking my chances as #1 on Mr. Linky, I decided to do another twincy for Flourishes' monthly challenge so I could have another shot at the free sets to be given away.  This is one of my favorites sets from Flourishes. I used pure poppy cardstock from PTI. I colored in with my copic markers.
I cuttlebugged half of my card and used my Martha Stewart punch along with my SU punch  on the black cardstock. Red, black, and white are one of my favorite color combos, and that touch of green in the leaves gives it a little pazazz as well.

MOJO MOnday 134

This card is for the Mojo Monday sketch. I used a piece of Basic Grey design paper to inspire the colors and other elements of my card. The punch is my freebie from Stampin' Up from Salebration. The sentiment is also Stampin' Up.
Using some of my retiring barely banana and apricot appeal on this card as well as dusty durango. The cardbase is pretty in pink.

Psalm 27:14 SSIC#34

Learning to trust in the Lord has given me great peace. He teaches me patience in my waiting and builds my strength in trusting His timing to be much more perfect than the time frame I place upon situations. I take peace in knowing when His timing is right,  it will be perfect in every way.I love John Waller's song "While I'm waiting" which says "While I'm waiting, I will serve you. While I'm waiting I will worship.

While I'm waiting I will not faint, I will run the race even while I wait." God can put that wait time into very productive things when we just give it to Him.

This scripture stamp is from Sweet and Sassy. I used sage shadow cardstock to emboss with my cuttlebug, and two pieces of Basic Grey design paper that I cut with my spellbinders. The flowers, leaves, and butterflies are punch from various paper punches. Yellow stickles added the glimmer.
