Crafty Cardmakers Challenge # 250 Love is All You Need

Welcome to 2020's third Challenge at Crafty Cardmakers and the challenge is Love is All You Need. As usual, anything you care to enter is fine, a card, scrap layout, mixed media piece or some home decor.

A Grandson & wife are expecting twin daughters in March and I decided to start making some cards in advance in order to give them down the road.  All so exciting. I made a card way back when using this same Doodle Pantry image  (long retired) (see here), so I now have two.

                                       Challenge #249 Crafty Cardmakers:  Black & White

 Welcome to 2020's second Challenge at Crafty Cardmakers and the challenge is 'Black and White' As usual, anything you care to enter is fine, a card, scrap layout, mixed media piece or some home decor.  I am hosting the challenge and I am looking forward to seeing what marvelous creations come our way!

I chose an image by Tiddly Inks titled 'Wryn - Grow a Little Love', coloured her with Prismacolor, markers and used designer paper (Stampin Up's 'Urban Underground) for the card background. I made the flower from punches & a die and added 4 rhinestones in one corner. The LOVE die cut (Stampin Up's Big Shot Expressions Thinlets die) finished it off.

Catch the Bug Holiday Critter Chaos Day 4 2019

 

Bugaboo's  Holiday Critter Chaos continues at the Catch the Bug Challenge Blog.  Day Four challenge is Tic-Tac-Toe: pick three in a row. I choose the corner to cornet line (bottom left to top right) and used Bugaboo's digital image titled  'ReindeerPeeker' as my 'free' choice. I punched and added three sparkly circles and a die-cut 'Christmas' word. I also added some sparkle to the trees. The ribbon is the two sparkly strands beneath the tree and sentiment.
