Retro Sketches #84 and Dynamic Duo's #73



Hello....and happy Tuesday, another busy week and another quick post.  I have 2 cards to share, one for Retro Sketches and one for Dynamic Duo's.  This week's Dynamic Duo's took me some time, the colors this week were not ones I would generally use but in the end I have to say I really love the way they look together.



My second card is for this week's Retro Sketch and this is take two on cards, the first one I made I have tucked away for the next "ugly card" challenge and yes it is that bad!  Thank you so much for taking time to stop by to peek at my cards....have a great rest of your week!

  1. I adore your first card. Those colors are fantastic together, and I am so happy that you now have that medallions set. I can copy everything you do. Your second card is really so very cute. I love that LF paper, and you used it perfectly. I thought that sketch was challenging, and you knocked it out of the park with this card.

  3. You did a great job with the DD colors! Love the crisp, clean design and the enamel dot accents. And your Retro Sketches card is such fun with all the mix of patterns and bright colors.

  5. I love both cards - I really like the DD card - those colors are really pretty together. I thought the retrosketch was very difficult this week - great work!

  7. Your card for DD is wonderful! I'm just calling 'winner, winner' for that one! I absolutely love how you've used the colors, and the design is perfect! Sweet card for RS too. I've had my eye on that LF paper, but just can't seem to order it! Both cards are so happy. Sweet! Bev

  10. Oh, Kim, the DD card is glorious ... you've combined the colours beautifully and I love the enamel dots! The leaves scattered among the DP sections on your RS card are positively touchable ... such a fun, happy card! BTW, I can't imagine anything you make fitting even remotely into an 'ugly card' challenge! Anita :)

  11. Hi Kim! I peeked at these very early this morning so back now to comment. Love the way you used all those fun bright papers from Lawn Fawn. I bet your other card is not even ugly!

  14. Oh my goodness--the DD card immediately grabbed my attention! Love the look of that card & not colors I would usually put together either!

  15. Two more beauties! I love the simplicity of your DD card - especially the few bits of bling on the patterned paper! Your second card is a perfect example of how to expertly combine various DP - beautifully coordinated! Love the stitched leaf die!

  19. Two great cards but I especially love the Dynamic Duos card. Great idea to use the photo finishers strip to separate. Lovely!
