6/27/24 - Cardz 4 Galz #228 Inspired by Books - Attention Shopper (Confessions of a Shopaholic)

Welcome to the last challenge of the month at Cardz 4 Galz and this week we are making cards inspired by book! It took me awhile to come up with a card so I picked the bundle I want to use – Attention Shopper and then see what book I can paired it up with. I remembered reading a fun series by Sophie Kinsella about shopping and the lightbulb went up in mind and I created this card! The sentiment is perfect with the book I am sharing (Confessions of a Shopaholic) and I created 3 shopping bags with a quick paper piercing technique with the in-color paper. It’s subtle but I sponged Pretty in Pink on the background of my sentiments/images to make the whole piece pop. I hope you enjoyed this card and be sure to join us at the challenge.

6/25/2024 - Cardz 4 Guyz #350 Anything Goes - Submarine Life

Welcome back to another challenge here at Cardz 4 Guyz and for this challenge, it’s Anything Goes!! I need a congratulations card this past weekend for my dear friend, Evan’s retirement party from the Navy and this card was truly perfect because he spent 19 years working in the submarine! I was really excited to be able to make this card for him – not just for kids! I tried to add some really fun under the sea elements like bubbles, starfish and few bright colors of fishes! I hope he enjoyed this card as much as I’ve created it for him! Thanks for stopping by and be sure to join us at the challenge.

6/24/24 - Atlantic Hearts Sketch #583 - Painted Lavender Dies with Hugs & Kisses

Welcome back to another challenge here at Atlantic Hearts Sketch and this is my take on the sketch. I used the rectangle instead of the oval on the sketch and instead of the wreath, I used the leaves images and added the die cut flowers from Hugs & Kisses! The color combination I picked are unusual as well but somehow it works! I hope you enjoyed this card I am sharing today and be sure to join us at the challenge.

6/17/2024 - Make My Monday#228 Summer Outdoor Fun - Just a Note Crafting with You

We are back here at Make My Monday for another fun challenge and this week we are making Outdoor Fun! For the challenge, I created a card for all the artist inside us with an easel image from Crafting with You bundle! When the weather is nice, I see lots of people with their drawing pads or Easel at the Botanic Garden, capturing natural’s beauty. This is also a quick and easy fun fold, where you create a card base hot dog style (long way) and then cut it at 2.75 inches and use that piece as a panel for the fun fold! I paired this with the DSP. I hope you enjoyed this card and be sure to join us at the challenge.
