Two Hearts...

Crazy4Challenges had a crazy challenge this week: a sketch, color, AND theme! Here is the challenge photo:



Here is my card:

I altered the sketch just a little, but you can still tell. I made the background panel above and below the circle instead of right behind it. I really like how this turned out. CTMH doesn't have colors like this, even though they're kind of trendy. I used some old cardstock that I had from my days before CTMH. I like this combo.

Materials used:
Cardstock: Colonial White, scraps from my stash (not CTMH)
Stamps: Precious Love
Ink: Black, VersaMark
Other: Gold Embossing Powder

WORD Art

Here is some artwork from the Word. I used the sketch from CASE This Sketch from last week, and the word art from Word Art Wednesday from last week. I made this card last week, but I didn't get a chance to upload it. I've ben busy because we had our anniversary on Wed, plus Dr.'s apts, grocery shopping, and all kinds of stuff. So here it is, a little late.

Materials used:
 Cardstock: Black, White Daisy
Stamps: Classy Doily, WAW word art (not CTMH)
Ink: Sweet Leaf
Other: Silver Bitty Brads, vellum (not CTMH)

OWH Penguins

I made this penguin card for two Operation Write Home Challenges.

Late again!

I started making this card for Sweet Sketch Wednesday, but my vellum got caught in the printer. It took me 4 days to figure out how to get it out! That's why this card is so late! I'm using the colors from ColourQ and the image from A Day for Daisies.

Materials used:
Cardstock: Black
B&Ts: Hooligans
Stamps: ADFD digi image
Other: Purple gems, vellum (not CTMH)

Materials used:
Cardstock: Black, Honey, Sunset, Autumn Terracotta, Colonial White, New England Ivy
