Cooking it Up with Katie

Hi Everyone!

Sorry about the later than normal post today. I'm working on some other non-crafting projects at the moment, and time has just slipped away from me today. Here is my card for this week's "Cooking it Up with Katie" challenge. This week we are so happy to be sponsored by Stampin Dragon Designs. The recipe for this week is to start with flowers , make it for a Lady and finish with a little(or a lot of) pink.

Lots of bright colors and papers in this card, so I hope it makes you all think of happy spring days with beautiful flowers.

Have a great day, everyone!

There's No One Like You

Hi Everyone!

Here is my card for yesterday's Mojo Monday. I really liked this sketch. It was easy to work with and I was very surprised how quickly my card came together. I used a softer color palette for this card, combining Kraft, Harvest Gold, Fine Linen with Perfect Plum and Pale Plum. These soft colors remind me of spring! I stamped the "Flower Pattern" Cling stamp from Hero Arts with Versa Mark ink and stamped it on the Pale Plum background piece. I embossed the flower from SU's "Fifth Ave Floral" with gold embossing powder and then used Copic Markers (Vo1, V12, V15, V17) to fill it in. I used Y11 around the edges to give it a little bit of a "glow". The Harvest Gold piece was embossed with the Cuttlebug Swiss Dots folder and then I paper pierced the edges of the Fine Linen piece in the center.
I was rather pleased with the final results of this card and I hope you like it too! I will enter this card into the following challenges:

1. Mojo Monday: Sketch 187

2. Cupcake Craft Challenge: Lots of Layers

3. Woodware USA: Die Cuts and Punches
