2 Patterned Papers

3 Word Sentiment

 

Patterned papers are from a pile of scrapbooking paper I was given.  Flower is from the Stampin' Up Mixed Bunch set and punched with the Blossom punch.  Elegant Eggplant was used for the flower, the border and the border around the Designer Label punch.  God Bless You is from the Stampin' Up Trust God set.  Now on to the next challenge.  Thanks for viewing.



OWH - Our Daily Bread September and VCMP Challenge

 

This is going to be a fun weekend.  I am taking part in a Virtual Card Making Party with Operation Write Home.  This first challenge was from Our Daily Bread Designs.  It is also part of Our Daily Bread's monthly challenge.  We are to create an inspirational card with a scripture verse or some other type of encouragement.  I chose a stamp from Stampin' Up's Trust God set.  It says, "Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding."  And since I was making a card, why not make two to send in my next box to OWH.  Thanks for stopping by!  May your day and weekend be blessed and filled with much creativity!

August Card Buffet

The temps have gone down (a little), we've finally had some rain, and school has started in some places.  That must mean Fall is on the way.  Though the leaves won't change for a few months, I always look forward to this time of year.  I hope many of you will be able to join in on the creativity this month.

Butterfly - "Each one of us is God's special

work of art.

I'm Praying for you - Can be a Get Well card or a

Sympathy card.

Open Sea Thank You - Change the sentiment and

you could have a masculine birthday card

Mixed Bunch Blossoms - Add your own sentiment

inside for whatever occasion you need

Gratitude - Thinking ahead and getting ready

for Fall and Thanksgiving



OWH Sunday Sketch Challenge #130

I recently joined the wonderful organization Operation Write Home.  I am part of a super group of crafters that makes cards for our deployed Heroes so they can stay in touch with their loved ones at home.  This is my first card challenge so I was super excited to give it a try.  All the products are from Stampin' Up.  The cardstock is Whisper White and Lucky Limeade and Floral District Designer Series paper.  Ink used is Lucky Limeade and Daffodil Delight.  Stamps sets used are Betsy's Blossom (a new favorite of mine) as well as Trust God.  The new Fancy Fan embossing folder was used on the green strip on the left side of the card.

Thanks for stopping by!



July Card Buffet

Can you believe July is almost over?  I love it because that means we are another month closer to Fall and cooler weather.  We are also near the release of the new Stampin' Up Holiday Mini catalog.  It's larger in content and layout, and you will love everything, and you will probably want everything too.  I'm anxious to use some of the new things for my classes, but that will have to wait until August 1st.  Thanks for viewing the cards below.  Hope to see many of you this month!

Just for You - Love the new Betsy's Blossom set

Thinking of You... - The July special Reason to Smile set.  Put in a $50 order

and order this set for only $5.00.  What a deal!

Get Well Soon - Another card from the Reason to Smile set

Happy Birthday - Punch art is fun and I just love the

Floral District designer series paper

It's Your Day! - More Betsy's Blossom and the new International Bazaar paper



Ready to SWAP!

Swapping cards with fellow demonstrators is always fun and a great way

to get new ideas.  Our swap for this month's Bluebonnet Stampers

meeting is to use products in the new Annual Catalog along with

two embellishments.  I used the new Trust God and Papillon Potpourri stamp

sets as well as the new butterfly punch.  I punched a solid butterfly

from Daffodil Delight and then stamped the detailed butterfly on

vellum, colored it with Daffodil Delight and Pumpkin Pie ink, punched

it out and mounted it onto the solid butterfly.
