Color Dare 103 with Jubilee

That rhymes. :) Here is the layout I made using this week's challenge colors - Honey, Indian Corn Blue, Topiary, and Cranberry. I used Jubilee paper pack and level 2 complements. I really am a sucker for this country look! I think I'd do my whole house up like this if I could!

The layout is Juggling Act from Magic. I have yet to put a title on it because I'm not sure which pictures I'm using.

Materials used:
Cardstock: Colonial White, Kraft, Indian Corn Blue, Cranberry

Singin' in the Rain

The theme at Less is More is "singin' in the rain." I had this stamp that was perfect. The color combo at Just us Girls was also perfect for this theme. I used the sketch from Crazy 4 Challenges.

Color Dare 102 with Twitterpated

It's time for another Color Dare! This week we are challenging you to use Indian Corn Blue, Sorbet, and Sweet Leaf. I used the Twitterpated pack. The blue isn't quite Indian Corn Blue (I actually used Dutch Blue for the base page) but that's okay sometimes. If you don't have the exact color, just use a similar color. My layout is Make It From Your Heart Volume 2 pattern 5.

Come join us this week at Color My Heart!

Materials used:
Cardstock: Dutch Blue, Chocolate, Colonial White

More Balloons

Here is a card I made inspired by one on pg. 39 of the current Idea Book. I've been having fun making some of the projects from this book before the new one comes out! I also am entering it into these challenges:

Freshly Made Sketch
Color Throwdown
Word Art Wednesday
Simon Says - Dots and Spots

Instead of using the suggested stamp set (which I don't have), I fussy cut a balloon out of the "hero" paper, and used the Live Out Loud set for the sentiment. I put the verse from WAW on the inside.

 

Materials used:
Cardstock: Whisper, Colonial White, Sorbet
B&Ts: Balloon Ride
Complements: Balloon Ride
Stamps: Live Out Loud
Ink: Saddle

Teddy Bear Picnic...

Yesterday I found some challenges. The first was at Less is More to make some fingerprint art. I thought it would be cute to make a teddy bear. Then I went to Crazy 4 Challenges and their challenge was to make a project with a teddy bear on it! Isn't that serendipitous? (I've been wanting to use that word.) I found a sketch at Nacho Average Challenge that worked well (my first time playing there), and the colors from colourQ were the same as the inspiration photo at the Pink Elephant. After I finished making this card, I had to go take dinner to a lady who had a baby boy. The card was perfect, so I gave it to her (but not before I took a picture). Also serendipitous, don't you think?

I used Goldrush ink for the teddy bear. I used my index finger to make the body and the head and my pinky finger to make the arms and legs, but my fingers were to small to make the ears, so I used the baby's finger (she's 3 months old now). Isn't that cute?
