My Favorite Things, Color Challenge #211

I was so glad to be able to make time for crafting this weekend that I decided while I was in here working on the sketch challenge I would do another card using the same sketch for the color challenge. It's been such a trying time at our house recently, and my sister has been my rock, so I wanted to make a card for her in appreciation. 

I used five different stamp sets for this card. The backgrounds are from My Favorite Things, Artistic Prints stamp set. I used three of the four colors from the current challenge to create the background images. The lighthouse is from MFT's Pig Time Fun, the waves from Seaside Seagulls, the sentiment from You Keep Me Afloat, and the life preserver is from Ellen Hutson's Float Your Boat stamp set.

The accent paper is also by My Favorite Things, from the Black and White Stripes 6x6 paper pad.

Thanks for coming by! 

My Favorite Things, Sketch 646

It's been way too long since I've been able to enjoy my craft room, but this weekend I simply had to make some me time. Life has been a mess with health issues and scheduling (or lack of!! grr) and I really needed the break. With graduation time fast approaching, I used the MFT Sketch 646 as the base for my design and created this card for my grandson in his school colors. I can't believe he's already at the end of his high school years!!!!  

The background is silver foiled using a die from Pinkfresh Studio called Geo Arch. The stars are heat embossing with clear embossing powder over blue ink on white cardstock. 

The graduation cap is black embossing powder heat embossed over black cardstock. The tassel is heat embossed in blue powder over black cardstock. 

Foam tape under the grad cap and sentiment strip for more dimension. 

My Favorite Things, Outside the Box, Animals

This Reel-y Great Day stamp set is so cute I decided to make another box card for the challenge. Hope you like it!

I also used the grass and waves dies that coordinate back to the outside the box set.

The pattern papers are by Bo Bunny, and older 6x6 pad called Camp-a-lot.

Lots of copics for this one.

My Favorite Things, Sketch 644

I combined this week's sketch with the color challenge and I think it turned out rather cute. These little birds are from the MFT Tweet Memories stamp set. 

Instead of colored cardstock I used my copic markers to color white cardstock circles in the challenge colors. 

One little bird is popped with foam tape, everything else is layered cardstock.

My Favorite Things, Outside the Box - Animals

These cute little guys are the London Mouse stamp set. I've had this set for so long and these images are so sweet I thought they would be fun for this animal theme challenge. Also, it's been too long since I've traveled, and this seemed like a fun way to 'get away' for a minute. 

I don't have a copic color list, as I colored these some time ago and didn't make a note anyplace to refer back to. The sentiment is Paper Smooches and the paper pad is Passport by Carta Bella.
