Just popping in quickly at the start of the weekend to post 3 quick cards.
First up is a card inspired by the Project Reachout: You are My Favorite Challenge. I decided to use a sentiment from Think Big Favorites as my favorite element. I have been meaning to make a cheery card using this sentiment, as it is perfect for today's situation.
I stamped sun rays in the upper left corner from Hello sunshine, a sun from Heart 2 Heart, and added a frame from Infinity Frames and texture from the Stitching Impression Plate. The clouds are L'il Inker.
I am also entering this card at Retro Rubber #133: Anything Goes. The stamps on this card are all at least 5 years old.
Next up is the final card I am entering at AAA Cards #163, as the challenge is almost over. It was such a great sketch, it inspired quite a few of my cards these past few weeks. I used a die set from PTI called Kay's Critters Cuddly Cats along with Cat's Meow.
Last up today is a card inspired by the Stay Crafty with Hero Challenge #6: Out of the Box. I used the Hero Arts Color Layering Stamps and Dies. I used die cuts to create some white on white texture as well as a border--that is my 'out of the box' use for the ice cream cone die. I am also entering this card at Seize the Birthday #189: Food and/or Drink.
Stay Safe
Thanks for Visiting

ReplyDeleteOh I'm old enough to remember clockwork mice! Fab use of the sketch and maybe the mouse will fly if he spots the cat! Thanks for playing at AAA Cards, hope to see you join in with future challenges too. Keep safe, stay home and craft instead!
ReplyDeleteLovely! I really like the way that the rays of the sunshine are embedded in the texture. The cheery yellow frame is a perfect addition. Thank you for joining us at Retro Rubber Challenge.
ReplyDeleteLove all of these cards Joyce! I came by to get a better look at the ice cream cone! Love how you carried the cone shape across the card and the texture on the cone is perfect. Thanks for playing along at Seize the Birthday!
ReplyDeleteSpotted your ice cream cone card at Hero Arts Stay Crafty - just love it!! The pop of the colored cone among the white ones forming a border - genius!! Love your other cards too - great texture on card one and that cat is too sweet on card two!!
