3/24/2025 - Make My Monday #248 - Let's Celebrate with Planted Paradise,

Welcome back to another Make My Monday challenge and this week we are making Green card! I decided to go with as many green as I can! I used the Timeless Plaid and picked up a piece of DSP that I wanted to use and goes of from there. The card base is 4 ¼” x 5 ½” and the middle flip panel is 3 x 8 ½” and score at 4 1/4”. The DSP piece is about ¼” inches smaller. I then stamped a big pot with Boho Blue and inside different succulents with different shade of greens. Hope you enjoyed this and be sure to join us at the challenge.

Friday is a fun day at My Time To Craft and this week we are making Celebration card! I make a friendship celebration card, good friends are always hard to come by. I used the Year of Flowers bundle for this. The die cut only cut out the flowers and not the month, which is very nice I think. I cut out 3 flowers (Jan – March) and adhere them onto Pool Party cardstock to the image can really pop! Hope you enjoyed this creation and be sure to join us at the challenge.

3/20/25 - Cardz 4 Galz #246 Spring - Thankful Garden Bundle

Happy Thursday and it’s another challenge here at Cardz 4 Galz and we are making Spring card! We did get a few days of spring like tempetures last week but now it’s back in the 30s again, blah! The stamp set I used is from Online Exculsive – Thankful Garden. It’s a big image of floral and not usually something that I would purchase but I am stepping out of my comfort zone to get use it. I sponge the image with the coorindating mask to create mutliple layers. Although the color I picked was darker but when I sponge it, it came out lighter, since I am using the colors for The Card Concept challenge. I am also submitting this card to The Paper Player (Single Stamped Image). Hope you like this card I am creating today and be sure to join us at the challenge!

3/17/25 - Atlantic Hearts Sketch #621 - Spotlight on Nature Dear Friend

Hi everyone – hope you are all doing well! Today’s card is with Atlantic Hearts Sketch and this is what I came up with. I started with using the mask (#4 and #5) to create a subtle background focusing on the bottom left corner and stamped a big, bold floral image with Basic Gray and colored in with Stampin’ Blends. It still looks a little plain so I added some spot background and pearls. I gave this to a friend at OnStage event this past weekend. Hope you enjoyed this card and be sure to join us at the challenge.
