Red, Black and White Love

It is a cold and drizzly day..... bummer........ but, over on Seongsook's Stampers FB page there was a challenge to make a card using red, black and white and I decided to give it a try.  The red background paper is shimmer paper so it was a bit hard to photograph.  The hearts are all dry embossed and popped.  OWH always needs Love cards for our Heroes.  :)

OWH - MWT - Red, White and Blue Any Hero Card

The challenge for this week is a color challenge of red, white and blue and to make an Any Hero card.  This is one of my favorite sentiments by Paper Inspirations.

ODBD February 2014 Challenge

This is the 2nd challenge for the Superbowl weekend "Cardbowl" and is in combination with Our Daily Bread Designs monthly challenge.  The challenge is to make a masculine card using primarily brown as the color.  I've got more than a 12x12 sheet of the argyle so I will make a pile of these for the Operation Write Home box.

MWT - Show Us Your Green

This week's challenge is a color used on cards and it is to be green.  I'm not making St. Patrick's Day cards but I do love the greens in nature.  Playing with the new Cricut cartridge I got for Christmas.  I made 6 of these!

Midweek Throwdown Color Challenge

Ah, finally got back to the craft table.  Just in time for an OWH Midweek Throwdown.  This color challenge is to make a card using red and green so I made 4 of these for the box that goes out next week.  The present is popped for dimension and interest and the silver glitter paper is fused to there is no flaking off.  (sorry about the glare, eek)

This week's challenge is to make a card using Tropical Colors!  Summery bee-utiful tropical colors!  It is being sponsored by Great Impressions and they are giving away a wonderful prize!  We all love prizes don't we? 

Stars and Stamps Blog Color Challenge X2

This week's Midweek Throwdown is a color challenge.  The colors to use are green and yellow.  Digging through my paper I found that yellow is not a major patterned paper color I have.  eeek!  And will all the paper I have you would think I might have more.  But, no!  LOL!  The first card might look like a familiar design.  That is because it is S&S Sketch #85. 

The second card is made with handmade paper and the rick-rac is velvet.

OWH - Color Challenge Gold #2

Late last night I started playing around with some gold (almost) linen texture paper that Debby had sent to me. It already had the hearts punched out of the paper so it was actually like a scrap. I decided to cut out the "cut out" part of the scrap to make the tumbling hearts. Yes, I hand cut around what was already cut out, used a bit for the border and added the lace.

OWH - Color Challenge Gold

I made this card from a die cut flower that was sent to me by UtahAnn. I just used gold crochet string to wrap the flower and then wander the card, gold embossed the tips of the petals and added matching gold brads.
