FLLCAPR10_My Twinchy

This is for the challenge over at Flourishes that you can find here. I used red pure poppy paper from PTI and the dotted design paper is from Basic Grey. I used a white strip that I punched with one of my Martha Stewart punches and added the red organdy ribbon. I stamped my twinchy with Flourishes' poppy. I colored it with my copic markers. I added a basic black piece to frame it.

CCEE1014_silhouettes in the shade

I've always loved this retired set from Stampin' Up. I thought one of the stamps in this set would be perfect for the CCEE challenge this week called "Silhouettes in the shade". The little girl chasing butterflies seemed just the image for spring. I used some old SU design paper, certainly celery cardstock and Basic black. The other design paper is from Basic Grey.  The butterflies are punch with a Martha Stewart butterfly punch using some scraps from my scrapbox.

FTTC61

What fun it was today to get the chance to play all of the Tuesday Challenges I love!! This card is for the Flourish Timeless Tuesday Challenge to use something you've been saving. This little dragonfly charm is from a small collection I have hoarded for years. I used one of my newest Flourish sets, Lace Edges, embossed in gold onto a piece of Basic Grey dp. Even though I have used the larger violets in the violet set, I have not ever used this small one. Seemed like the perfect challenge to put some ink on it.

CC265 and MMSC48

This is a double challenge card. I find myself doing more of that because of time limits. What's the old saying,,,killing two birds with one stone?? This is for the Midnight Madness sketch challenge this week and also for the SCS' color combination challenge. This week's colors: soft suede, tempting turquoise, and certainly celery. I used a Paper Trey stamp for the flower, and a SU sentiment. I punched out my butterflies, colored my white pearls with a brown copic marker and did all my coloring with copic markers.

MOJO 133

It's Mojo Monday and I just had to get one done as I have missed a few Mondays lately. Love this quote of Oprah's on this stamp from Verve.

Stampin' Sisters in Christ #33

The challenge for the Stampin' Sisters in Christ was based on the scripture, John 3:16. Your card was to represent something that represents LOVE to you. Well, I just happen to have this scripture on my latest Verve stamp set, so I could not think of anything that shows more love than the love of which these words speak.

I love this paper from Basic Grey that I mounted onto Scarlet Jewel cardstock (PTI).

I hope everyone had a very blessed Easter and were reminded of just how much God loves you in these words.

Copic Creations challenge #25

I love these sweetpeas from Flourishes. They are so fun to color with copic markers. I used BV00, BV04, V12, G20, G21, G24 and the blender pen.
