Time Out #210...Happiness is a Warm Puppy

 






It is time for a new challenge at Time Out.  We challenge you to make a card inspired by this quote:

"Happiness is a Warm Puppy"

--Charles Schultz


I chose an image with puppies and a quote about happiness for my card this week.  I used Woof Pack stamps by our sponsor Newton's Nook for my card.  I just love this stamp, which has so many adorable pups all squeezed together.  I chose to highlight just one pup in particular, and colored the rest of the pack with various tones of grey.





Where will this quote take you?  You do not have to stick with dogs....pick anything that makes you happy.  We'd love to see it on a card.


Please head over to Time Out to see more inspiration from our fabulous Guest Designer, Asa, and the Time Out Design Team.  Newton's Nook is our sponsor for this challenge.  Details for the prize are on the Time Out Challenge Blog.


This challenge will run for 2 weeks.  I hope you will take some Time Out of your busy schedule to play along with us.

Time Out #209...Hello

 




It is time for a new challenge at Time Out.  We challenge you to make a card inspired by the word:

CUTE

Our sponsor this week is Lawn Fawn, and I didn't have to look too long through my stash to find something cute from Lawn Fawn for my card.  In fact, I had a hard time narrowing my choices and making a decision about what to use.  I decided to make a cute 'Hello' card using Lawn Fawn  Car Critters and Dandy Day stamps.







Please head over to Time Out to see more inspiration from our fabulous Guest Designer, Sue Symens,  and the Time Out Design Team.  Lawn Fawn is our sponsor for this challenge.  Details for the prize are on the Time Out Challenge Blog.


This challenge will run for 2 weeks.  I hope you will take some Time Out of your busy schedule to play along with us.

Cards for Ukraine

 






I am joining in with fellow crafters in creating some cards inspired by the colors of the Ukrainian flag and the courage of the Ukrainian people.

I am entering all three of these cards at Color Hues #36.




First up is this card using one of my favorite new Hero Arts dies.  



I am entering this card at Stay Crafty with A Blog Named Hero: Anything Goes and Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge: Die Cut





I was inspired by my friend Lindsey's card when planning this next card.  Sunflowers are the national flower of Ukraine and are now a global symbol of solidarity.




 I am linking this card up at Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge: Die Cut.



This was actually the first card I made in this series, again being inspired by the colors of the Ukrainian Flag and their national flower.  The stamp is a very old PTI called Botanical Blocks.  I am entering this card at PTI What Do I Do with This challenge to use embossing powder.

CASology Week #401...HAT






Hello and happy Tuesday. It's time for another challenge at CASology.   This week, our cue word is HAT.  It's still winter somewhere, and these 3 snowmen friends are just hanging out, each wearing their own unique hat.




Now it's your turn.  How does HAT inspire you?


As always, remember the following CAS guidelines when creating your design:
  1. One main image
  2. Lots of open space, uncluttered
  3. Limited layers & embellishments
  4. Quick & easy to recreate (Note: It may take a while to create a design you like, but once you have that design, making more should be a piece of cake!)

I hope you play along this week.

Please head on over to the CASology blog and gather some inspiration from our Guest Designer Tracy, and our design team.  



Thanks for Visiting
