My Crafty Weekend



A beautiful sunny weekend in Southern California, and I had some time to play in my craft room.

First up is a card I made for the Dog's Life challenge at Simon Says Monday Challenge and the color challenge at Just Add Ink #382.  I die cut the dog that looked most like my friend's lab in black, grey and Autumn Rose and arranged them randomly on my card front.  The sentiment is from Paper Smooches Lucky Dog and the dies are Impression Obsession.






Next up is a card using Word Ribbon and the Funky Square Tag Die from CAS-ual Fridays.  I am playing along in their CFC#185: Think Pink Breast Cancer Awareness.  I love this awesome quote, and how it can be used for more occasions than breast cancer awareness.  I am also entering this card at Addicted to Stamps and More #264: CAS.






Even though the colors at Just Us Girls #416 said Halloween to me, I challenged myself to make a birthday card, since that is what I needed more.  I am also entering this at Seize the Birthday Anything Goes.





I fell in love with the roses in Altenew Bamboo Roses, and used them with my copic markers to make a get well card, which I am entering at CAS on Friday #119 to make a card with flowers on it.




And, finally, I need to start making some holiday cards, so here are two of them.  First up is a card using the sketch at CAS(E) this Sketch #244.





And, lastly a card using the colors from CAS Colour and Sketches #245.  I used String of Lights dies from Lawn Fawn.





Thanks for Visiting

  3. Dude! You have had a killer crafty weekend!! I am loving all of these! The first with the pooches of course makes me so happy. Who makes that die? I love the balloon card - so simple but effective and great for guys or gals. The Bamboo Rose card is so pretty. I need to dig those out. And finally I was totally stumped by those CC&S colours and you rocked them!!! Thank you for all the inspiration! I just wish it wasn't bed time and I could run up to my craft room...
