Color Dare 91 with Ariana

This week's colors over at Color My Heart are from the Ariana paper pack:

I used the paper pack and the Dimensional Elements to make this quick level 2 layout. The layout is Photo Fusion from Cherish.

Color Dare 90, 88, & 84

I had a couple setbacks getting some of the recent layouts made for the Color Dare, but I took some time on Friday and got some finished.

First, for Color Dare 90, a Pemberley layout using the Stickease:

Materials used:
Cardstock: Colonial White, Parchment
B&Ts: Pemberley
Stickease: Pemberley
Other: Bouquet Assortment


Next, here is the layout I made just after getting home from the hospital. I left it sitting for a week because I thought it was missing something, but I never did figure out what. Any suggestions?

 

Materials used:
Cardstock: Colonial White
B&Ts: Dotty For You
Stamps: Card Chatter - Love, Buzz & Bumble WOTG
Ink: Black, Smoothie, Lagoon
Other: Smoothie Keepsake Felt Alphabet, Blending Pen


Finally, here is the layout I had been meaning to make for Color Dare 84. I used scraps from Believe. I never got the whole paper pack, just the bulk pack. But these are from the sampler B&Ts. This one will look better once I get the pictures on it.

 

Materials used:
Cardstock: Topiary, White Daisy
B&Ts: Believe
Other: Art Philosophy Cricut Cartridge

Color Dare 89 with Perfect Day

It's been a while since I posted. I am getting used to having a newborn at home. Getting the hang of having 4 children is a challenge, but a super enjoyable one! Hopefully soon I can get back into regular crafting. I just got a bunch of pictures developed, so I can start on my baby's scrapbook soon!

My top priority though is getting the birth announcements made and sent out. Here is my prototype. What do you think?

Materials used:
Cardstock: Colonial White, Crème Brulee
B&Ts: Perfect Day
Stamps: New Arrival
Ink: Crème Brulee, Juniper, Chocolate
Other: Chocolate Brads, Cricut Art Philosophy

Color Dare #87 with Ivy Lane

I am so ready for my baby to be born! My husband even took me for spicy food tonight to try to induce labor... didn't work (yet). Anyway, I am scheduled to be induced Monday, so I really don't have that much longer to wait.

I haven't been super creative lately, so for my Color Dare project this week, I just made the layout from the Ivy Lane WOTG.

I hope you'll come and join us this week at Color My Heart!

Materials used:
Cardstock: Ivy Lane Green, Ivy Lane Purple, Kraft, White Daisy
B&Ts: Ivy Lane
Stamps: Ivy Lane WOTG
Ink: Hollyhock, Bamboo, Desert Sand
Other: Artiste Cricut Cartridge, Ivy Lane Assortment, Purple Glitter Gems

Another Ariana card

Here's a card I made for:

The Pink Elephant - Ribbon, Green, Layers
H2H - Lucky
Deconstructed Sketch

Materials used:
Cardstock: Colonial White
B&Ts: Ariana
Stamps: Sarita WOTG
Ink: Pear, Crystal Blue
Other: green ribbon (not CTMH)

Triple Trees

Here is a card for the triple challenge at H2H. Luck would have it that Less is More is also having a triple challenge! I used the sketch from Atlantic Hearts, using trees instead of mountains. I love the way these tree stamps look with the Ponderosa Pine.

Materials used:
Cardstock: Colonial White, Ponderosa Pine
Stamps: Always Grateful
Ink: Ponderosa Pine
Other: Cashmere Twill Ribbon, Kraft Borders

Sparkly Technique

I tried a new technique today, thanks to Mynnette's Technique Time Tuesday. It's called Caught in Crystal. It was pretty fun, especially since it works really well with these unicorn stamps! I'm entering this card into these challenges:

Technique Time Tuesday
Simon Says Stamp - Glitter
Mojo Monday
ColourQ

I'm sorry about the glare. It's there due to the transparency that the unicorn is stamped on. Hopefully you can see the fun glittery background behind the unicorn.

Materials used:
Cardstock: Whisper, White Daisy, Ariana Coral
B&Ts: Ariana
Stamps: Unicorn Dreams
Ink: Pacifica, Black StazOn, Crystal Blue
Other: Prisma Glitter, Claire Assortment, transparency & tissue paper (not CTMH)
