Color Dare 185 with Atlantic Hearts

Hi everybody! I haven't posted in a while because life has been super crazy. I have about 10 projects I'm in the middle of (and getting nowhere on), and I feel like making a card is not high on the priority list. But I got some time and motivation to sit down and make something tonight, so here it is!

We are challenging you at Color My Heart this week to use Topiary, Sweet Leaf, Glacier, and Cotton Candy along with White Daisy on your projects. I like this combination; it's very refreshing. I used the Atlantic Hearts sketch with the Balloon Animals stamp set for my card. It is the first time I've used this set. It's so cute!

Come join us this week!

Color Dare 180 with Reds

This week at Color My Heart, we have a joint challenge with another fabulous Close to my Heart challenge blog - Heart 2 Heart. We are joining in with their "Share the Love" challenge. I hope you can come join us!

Today we said goodbye to some lovely people. A couple at our church is moving to Florida, and we had a farewell party for them after our evening service. My friend who's moving likes to stamp and make cards, so I knew she would appreciate this one I made for her and her husband. I took inspiration from these challenges:

Color My Heart - B&W with reds
Sunday Stamps - Sketch
Opus Gluei - All you need is love
Pile it On - Make your own embellishments
Cupcake Inspirations - Hearts and Arrows
Heart2Heart - Share the Love

Shades of Grey with Color Dare #176

This week at Color My Heart we are challenging you to use Black, White Daisy, Slate, and Whisper. I had one pic from Halloween that I wanted to scrapbook, so I though I might use the Nevermore paper. But I didn't get the paper pack, just the swatches. When I looked at my swatches and saw that I didn't have enough from Nevermore, I saw a bunch of grey and black & white paper in there. So I got the idea to cut 2-inch strips and arrange them on a white background with the picture matted in the center. So I cut strips from La Vie en Rose, Georgie, Nevermore, and Zoe. I also had some from Urban, but they didn't end up fitting. So, it's a hodgepodge, but it works with this color combo! For embellishments, I added some felt stickers and a zip strip from the retired Mischief paper pack.

Come play along!
