Happy Saturday once again....I have two more cards to share tonight and each card will go to the challenges listed above. Thanks to my friend Joyce, the challenge queen...she always knows all the current challenges. I decided that all the cards I made today were going to use stamps that have never seen any ink, so much fun playing with new goodies, even if they have been hanging around for some time.
My first card is for this week's PTI - Make it Monday, Dynamic Duo's, Freshly Made Sketches and CAS-ual Fridays. My inspiration for this card is this week's color combination from Dynamic Duo's, pink and brown look so beautiful together!
My second card is for PTI - Make it Monday and CAS-ual Fridays challenges. This was my first take at using the banner/flag trend, so fun to do and the possibilities are endless. I used the Heart-2-Heart stamp set with the sweet sun and a few clouds from PTI dies...I needed a rainbow to go with them and used Doodlebug Take Note patterned paper for my rainbow flags, I love the way my card turned out. Thank you so much for taking time to stop by for a peek at my cards....enjoy the rest of your weekend!

ReplyDeleteTwo terrific cards - love that they have such different feels to them but still use similar elements. The mats in the first one are great and really frame your flowers!
ReplyDeleteTwo amazing cards. I love the pink and brown together on the first one, and those flowers are just so soft and pretty. Very fun idea to use that mat stack shape, too. Your second card is just so bright and fun. That rainbow Doodlebug paper is so cute, and is perfect as a flag. Cute idea to use a sun and rainbow and clouds--it all pulls together so nicely.
