Two Cards for Saturday




Well, things have calmed down here on the old blog....trying to get back to normal after all of those incredible PTI Anniversary Challenges.  Today, I inked up a brand new Paper Smooches set that came in a couple of days ago--Hooties--and it is so cute and perfect for paper piecing.  I used some new patterned SU paper that I ordered off clearance, and the sketch from CAS(E) this Sketch CTS#64.  I am entering this card in the challenge at Paper Smooches to create something new that is FUN and CUTE. 





I also had a chance to play along with this month's One-Layer Simplicity Challenge #2:  Can You Repeat That?  I used the dress form image from PTI, stamped in a rainbow of colors.  I tried coloring my own bling using Copic markers for the very first time, and I cannot believe how easy it is to get the perfect color of bling.  I really love these one layer challenges, and hope to play again before the month is out.




The challenge at Simon Says Stamp Monday is We Love Stamps (and I really and truly do), so I will be entering both of these cards over there as well.


Thanks for Visiting

  10. Love the hooded eyes on that owl image - great paper pieced! I rarely by colored gems once I discovered I could create custom colors with my Copics.

  11. I just put that owl stamp on my wish list. He is adorable and I love the way you paper pieced him. The one layer card is lovely. I have to tell you a funny story on myself. I was reading another blogger who entered the same challenge and when she wrote "Can you repeat that?' after the challenge name I thought she meant saying it was difficult. It wasn't until I saw your mention of it that I realized that was the challenge - to repeat something. I think my head has been somewhere else lately. ;)
