Card Patterns #154

Here's a spring card I made with the new PTI set to go along with the Christmas label:

And here's the sketch I used:

All supplies are PTI including ribbon, patterned paper, stamps, cardstock, border die. The gorgeous crocheted flower was made by my friend Christina! Sorry for such a short post, everyone, but I was up all night sick and now I'm rushing off to work because I couldn't get anyone to cover for me, but I wanted to make sure this card meets the noon deadline today. Thanks for stopping by!

Looking for the Green Eggs and Hambo blog hop? Scroll down, this is my 3rd post of the day (can you tell I have the day off from work??)

Check out this adorable Valentine's Day card!

To make this card, I combined 3 challenges (something I've never done before!). Here is the sketch from the Card Patterns Blog:

Here are the colors I used from this week's Color Throwdown Challenge:

And finally, I'm entering this week's Ribbon Carousel Challenge that was issued by my close friend Suzanne! Find the challenge here.

So back to my card using Paper Smooches!

The cardstock is all PTI, the card was cut using a Sizzix scallop circle die and the circle with Nestabilities. The border die is from PTI.

The big heart is from a Sizzix Bigz die from SU (hearts and brackets). The ribbon is from the dollar bin at Michaels.

I did outline the monster with BG10, but it didn't turn out as blue as usual because its on the kraft. It still makes him jump off the paper, though.

I'm just loving this card, it turned out so cute!! Thanks for stopping by :)

cQc #119 and Card Patterns #148

I had a very productive cardmaking day yesterday, and here's another of my creations for two challenges that I haven't played along with in awhile:

I used these colors from this week's ColorQ challenge:

And this sketch from this week's Card Patterns challenge:

Isn't this little girl sweet? It is a My Favorite Things stamp. I remember seeing someone using it at PTI's Stamp-a-Faire, and ever since then I wanted her. I just found her the other day at my local stamp store. The rolled rosette and the resin flower are both from Suzanne.

The pattern on the pink paper is from PTI's Background Basics: Retro. The floral paper is also from PTI. The grey paper is from an old SU DSP pack. The ribbon is also Melon Mambo Swiss Dot SU ribbon.

The scallop punch is also SU. Her shirt is stamped with PTI's Background Basics: Polka Dots. The sentiment came with the little girl stamp. I think that this card turned out sweet, but good grief it took me forever!
