Card 3-FarmQuest Challenge Blog-#68 Hibernating Animals

Card 4--Shopping Our Stash

I had a blast making these 4 unique cards using the Echo Park Bee Happy, paper pad. I used the darling bear from the W Plus 9 stamp set-Curious Forest Friends.  I won this set some time back, and I finally got to play with it.  I used a Paper Smooches tag die. This is my favorite tag die. I wish I could buy another one as this one is not cutting as well. I used Newton's Nook Designs Hexagon Frames dies and Frames & Flags die set for the banners.  For some of my cards, I used Beekeeper Newton for the bees and a couple of the sentiments. 

I was inspired by the sketch from CAS on Friday.

Inky Paws Challenge #220

Today starts a new Inky Paws Challenge!

One lucky participant will win a $20 store credit to Newton's Nook Designs!  You have until Friday, April 12, 2024 at Midnight CST to link up your project using the challenge sketch!

Here's my inspiration!

I created a slimline card using a combination of dies from the Slimline Frames & Windows and the Slimline Frames & Portholes die set.  I then distress the skyline before adhering the clouds, sun, and raindrops using the  Sky Builder die set. I added the floating feline from the Newton's Umbrella stamp set the grounded puppy from the Rainy Day Doxie stamp set. I used my Scan 'n' Cut to cut out these images; however, there are coordinating die sets for both. I then paper pieced the umbrellas using polka dotted using papers from the Pastel Basics (rain and puddle) and the Bright Basic (umbrellas) paper pads. I used Copic markers to color all the images.  I love how this turned out and how perfect to send to a friend who lives in rainy Washington!  

Hugs,

Debbie

You are Loved

Schools are closed again, so I am playing in the craft room!  So fun!

This card features these darling mice from Gerda Steiner Designs. It's called Fall Mice, but I decided to make this set have a Valentine's theme. I added a lot of little hearts in the wheelbarrow and had them floating down from the sky. I used the coordinating die to cut the mice.  The white card base was cut using the Framework die by Newton's Nook Designs. It's one of my go-to dies!

Cupcake Inspirations #278--Core'dinations

It's Sunday, and that means a new challenge at Cupcake Inspirations.  This week we are sponsored by Core'dinations and have a fun color theme.  I'm totally loving these colors. I paired my Core'dinations card stock with Taylored Expressions' Green Acres set. Velcro, my new kitten, lent me a paw and helped with this card.  He really loved running over everything, attacking my fingers, and swatting the stamps.  It took me over 30 minutes to find the one he lost! But in the end, we had a great time and I finally finished the card!

Now it's your turn to use these amazing colors in your project.  Go to  Cupcake Inspirations to check out more amazing cards by the design team Sweeties and to link up!  Hugs, Debbie
