Thinking of you...

Hello my Scrappy Friends! I found a new challenge blog and thought I would play along. I came across this blog CPS "Card Positioning Systems"  last night and they have a sketch challenge that I wanted to  participate in.  I will be combining it with HIMCR #44 Mothers Day. The Paper Variety, May flowers challenge. 

Here's my card-

On the inside it says- On your special day! Happy Mothers Day! 

I made these yo yo flowers about a year ago and thought I would use them for this project. I think the fabric works really well with the paper. All paper is scraps and I used the Cricut cartridge Florals Embellished for the paper base that I sewed the yo yo onto. 

Here's the sketch

Thanks for stopping by :)

A Card for Skipping Stones

Hello my Scrappy Friends:) Here's another card for a sketch challenge at Skipping Stones Design Blog. They teamed up with Scor-Pal Blog to give us an interesting challenge! If you have followed me you know I don't make many cards so I don't use my Scor-pal very often. Well after what I saw the design teams do I think I will not only use it on my cards but my scrap book pages as well! I will also be entering this into Hiding in My Craft Room #38 KISS "Keeping it Simple Sweetie" challenge. Well I did just that, my card couldn't be any simpler.

Here's my card-

I scored all around the outer perimeter and four sections.

Here you can see it better.

Noel...Three Challenges in One

Noel....Three Challenges in One plus One more:)
Hello my Scrappy Friends! I wanted to share a page I did for three different challenges. 

1. Whimsical Designs - Sketch challenge #44.

2. Hiding In My Craft Room (HIMCR)- #36 color challenge the colors are Monochromatic Green.

3. Really Reasonable Ribbon- Challenge #43 is Monochromatic Green & to use some kind of ribbon/lace or trim somewhere on your project.
Paper Issues- Go Green or Go Home

Here's my page-

I went with the Christmas theme because this was the first picture I came across that I could use green! My little grandson has on a green shirt and with it being Christmas Eve it was perfect.

I took scraps of ribbon and paper for the side strips, some old Christmas stickers that I put on card board and layered them to look like a Christmas tree then popped it off the page with foam tape, added a wooden star button for the topper. The title was bought just yesterday at a garage sale! Whoop Whoop I think it cost me a whole 10 cents. I did some distressing using the Tim Holtz distresser and sewed on the title and the crochet ribbon. 

Here's the sketch-
