A Flower and Hearts

I played this week in the Teapot Tuesdays challenge on Splitcoaststampers. The destination for the card this week is for Nancy's/nwilliams6 mom. You can find the story here. Nancy is a good AL friend of mine and her mother is having health issues and she would like Valentine/love cards for her Mom and step-dad as they are so much in love.

I linked my two hearts together. We were to bring flowers or other items (cows, puzzles, etc.) but I didn't have most of those :-) (you would have to read the story) so I stuck to a flower.
When I photographed my cards the color changed to more blue than purple. They were a very pretty periwinkle color. I worked and worked but never got it right. In real life, mine had more purple color.

A Corner of Love

Yes, it's me with another post and it will be the last one this week.

This card is for the Queen for the Day on Splitcoaststampers, QFTD150. The Queen is Beate! Who doesn't know Beate if you are ever on SCS. She does so many wonderful video tutorials for us so we'll have many techniques to use. Plus, her cards and projects are beautifully done.

I cased this card from Beate's gallery. It is one of her CAS cards. If you turn the card upside down, you'll see what I did. Also, I didn't do the scoring and placed a ribbon on mine.

Have a wonderful weekend. Hope it warms up for everyone.

Hearts and a Key

 

CCEE1302

Joanne Grzelak gave the challenge at CCEE Stampers this week. She asked that we use our newest stamping 'toys' and to identify them. I know it doesn't seem that I used my new Inkadinkado Stamping Gear. I did, just using the heart stamp from the set and not the cog, wheel, etc.  My other new item is the key. It is a QuicKutz heart and key die, Key to My Heart.

 

I used Stampin'Up! Dazzling Diamonds on the hearts and Glossy Accents on the key.

 

We hope you will play along with us and use your new toys. Be sure to let us know what they are.

Chipboard Challenge-CCEE Stampers

Yours truly is the hostess for the month of October at CCEE Stampers. For the first week, I chose to use chipboard as the challenge. The chipboard I'm using is Chipboard Pennant from Paper Accents. It is the container to hold my pumpkins. I had to cut the pennants down a bit as they were 4" x 6". I covered the chipboard with a patterned paper.

The pumpkins were punched with a Martha Stewart Jack-O-Lanterns border punch and each one cut out and I layered yellow cardstock on the back for the eyes and mouth. They were then attached to the toothpicks with pop dots. I really wish my pumpkins were smiling, not scary.

Below the pumpkins, I used an adhesive border from Martha Stewart called Elegant Witch. I cut out my banner for the sentiment and die cut some ivy to place in the container. That finished it!

Hope you'll join us this week for this fun challenge. Just make your card or project and upload to CCEE Stampers using the inlinkz tool.

My card fits the Splitcoaststampers Ways to Use It challenge which is odd numbers. I have 5 pumpkins for my odd numbers.

Fall Leaves With a Message

Friday has arrived and this will be my last card to post this week. Guess who it is for? You got it..my usual, Queen for the Day 130. The queen is Loll Thompson and here is the card I cased. Loll has a gallery full of wonderful CAS/clean and simple cards. I have really gotten to love creating this type card so I jumped right on this challenge.
My ribbon is from my sis (a box full of different ribbons) and all so pretty. Thanks, Sis!

My card is also for a challenge I haven't entered before-A Paperie Journey/One Layer Wednesday-The challenge is AUTUMN and what you love about it. For one thing,  I love the beautiful leaves God gave us to enjoy.
