Challenge #2 at Papertrey Playhouse

Challenge #2 at Papertrey Playhouse is:

I am often inspired by color combinations found in photography throughout blog-land, and that is where I came up with the inspiration for this challenge. To play along all you have to do is use Black and White with a Pop of Color.

And here is my card.

Apron Strings Monday challenge

Here is our challenge issued by Lori at Apron Strings.

Today, a little "Inspired by. . ." I was watching my toddler wandering around in his dinosaur pajamas the other day, all baggy and saggy and, frankly, very comfy looking and thought that would make a good challenge. So in honor of my son's dinosaur pajamas, create a layout that's inspired by them - the colors are browns, creams and greens (both moss and evergreen) and a touch of golds, with little dinosaurs all over them. They are long-sleeved and soft cotton.

I took my inspiration from the color and made this layout.

Five on Friday at Apron Strings

Our five on Friday today is:

•1 sheet of cardstock
one sheet plain white cardstock
•1 sheet of patterned paper
Red polka dot Doodlebug
•1 set of "themed" buttons or brads - if you have them, if not regular round is okay.
Dragonfly brads (not butterflies, but close enough)
•1 set of stickers
Doodlebug border stickers
•1 length of ribbon
Red and white ribbon from my stash, brand unknown



Then I took my paper scraps and made some butterfly embellies. Still just used my two sheets of paper! The scanner smooshed the butterflies, so here's a camera closeup.

Apron Strings Sketches on Wednesday

Nice easy challenge today. Use this sketch. I love sketches!



And my page using our BoBunny kit and embellies from different kits through the summer, plus some rub ons from my stash. OH! And I used my newest EK border punch. Isn't that a great one?

Papertrey Playhouse challenge

Today, I am playing with a challenge for a group called Papertrey Playhouse that was formed on Papertrey. This is our first challenge:

Challenge #1 - Felt

This challenge is an easy one. All you have to do to play along is use felt somewhere on your project. If you want to up your game, include a bow too! But the main requirement is felt.

I needed a quick get well card for a guy, and wanted something fun.
So here's what I came up with. I took inspriation from one of Nicole's cards.
I used my new terra cotta tile felt and my new eyelet die and the first time to use Harvest Gold. Always fun to play with new goodies!

My Croppy Summer Assignment #31

Here we are at the last challenge. I kept up, and did them all! The last challenge is: create today's layout with a vintage, homemade "flavor." Vintage doesn't come easy for me. When I think vintage, I tend to think Christmas without the cute. So, here's my attempt. Thanks Lori for the summer fun!!!

My Croppy Summer Assignment #30

Create a layout today using the color gold, and at least three round items, one of them large.
