Hello and happy Friday. I was so lucky to find myself in my craft room many times this week, and I thought I'd better post, before the challenges I am playing along with close.
First up is a trio of cards using the Hero Arts MMH kit from September 2018. I pulled out the kit, die cut and colored a bunch of images, and then just started putting some cards together. I made 6 cards in all, and am sharing the first three here today.
I am entering both of these cards at CAS on Friday #216: Autumn and Addicted to Stamps and More #416: Make Your Mark.
This card also was made using elements from the same kit. I used gold heat embossing on the stamps, with a bit of distress oxide ink blending. I am entering all three of these Hero Arts cards at Stay Crafty with Hero #28: Fall Colors, Retro Rubber #169: Anything Goes (stamps are from 9/2018), Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge: Fall Mood Board, and Shopping Our Stash #456: Autumn.
Next up is a Christmas card, inspired by the challenge at PTI: The Great Cover Up, Addicted to Stamps and More #416: Make Your Mark, and Retro Rubber #169: Anything Goes (stamps are from October, 2012)
I was inspired by the color challenge at Less is More #453: Purple and Yellow for my next card. I never think of these two colors together, but really like this combo. I used PTI Blooming Thoughts stamps and dies--and have to say that until I splurged and bought the dies, I found it impossible to imagine how to layer and line up the layers of stamps. I added a few sequins to this card and am entering it at PTI What Do I Do With This Challenge: use sequins, as well as AAA Cards #200: Celebrate and WCW326: Occasions.
Aren't these mice from Colorado Crafts just adorable? I love the style of the illustrator, who I remember from when my kids were little. I was inspired by the colors at Color Throwdown #664, and am also entering them at Addicted to Stamps and More #416: Make Your Mark.
Thanks for Visiting
