Daisies and Cone Flowers

Who doesn't love daisies and cone flowers?

This first daisy card is for the A Muse Summer is Blossoming challenge.

It was inspired by a sketch over at Scrapadilly.

It features some DCWV papers and a Gina K Designs Stamp with a touch of Washi Tape.

This card is also for the A Muse Studio Challenge.

This card was inspired by the Kraft with Ribbon challenge over at 3 Girl Jam.

I just love using the crinkle ribbon.

The paper is from Canvas Home Basics and the stamp is from Unity. 

I cut out the oval and lacy oval (spellbinders) and used some gold metallic rub-on paste to the black lacy oval.

Thanks for stopping by!

Pop Art Flowers

Here is a colorful pop-art flower card.

I made it for the A Muse Challenge:  The Summer is Blossoming with Fun.

The challenge was to use a flower stamp on your card and that's exactly what I did.  I stamped it four times on bright card stock, cut them out, and added them to coordinating squares of color.  

I had this card stock for years, back before these colors were hot.  

The flower stamp is from Gina K Designs and the sentiment is from Gourmet Rubber Stamps.

I hope you are having a brightly colored summer!

Christmas in August?

Christmas in July August

Here we go!  I made a card with a Christmas theme.  This isn't a usual Christmas card for me, I usually recycle old Christmas card into new ones, but this one is from scratch.  

This card is inspired by the Crafty Steals Third Thursday Sketch Challenge.  

They asked that you use Christmas colors or a Christmas theme.

I opened my scrap paper drawer, and these papers happened to be on top, so I used them.  They are from the DCWV Christmas Stack from a few years ago.  The candies were given to me in a swap.

Well, at least I'm making headway on my Christmas cards.  How about you?
