ODBD Sneaky Peek, Color Throwdown, and MORE!





Happy Wednesday, everyone!   It is time for another fun trio of colors.  I have a card to share today along with the other girls from The Color Throwdown  using this week's colors!   Barbara is the challenge host this week.  We would love to see what you create!  I would like to thank all of The Color Throwdown designers for having me guest design for the month!  Thanks so much!




For my card I am using two ODBD sets to be released on Friday.  The sets are Sweet William and Large Scrapbook Words.  The Sweet William flower coordinates with Spellbinder's Blossom 3. 

I stamped the flowers and die cut.  I colored with copics and added some glitter.  Actually, I added quite a bit of glitter to the front flower.  It is really sparkly in real life.  To add some leaves I looped some green ribbon.  I added a sentiment using one of the large scrapbook words. 


Thanks so much for stopping by!  Please check out The Color Throwdown designers to see what they created with these colors!

Sending You Smiles! Mojo, CTD, and MORE!





Happy Wednesday, everyone!   It is time for another fun trio of colors.  I have a card to share today along with the other girls from The Color Throwdown  using this week's colors!   Great colors to play with this week! We would love to see what you create!


For my card I am using Verve's A Cup of Life, Always on My Mind, and Thoughtful Florals sets. I am using the sketch from Mojo Monday195.    I used Verve's Charming Banner die set for the smaller sentiment.  I used a few different patterns from My Mind's Eye and Crate Papers designer papers.   I colored with copics and cut out the teapot and teacups.  I finished with some soft sponging and golden colored gems.

Beauty of Dreams! Color Throwdown and some Happy News!





Happy Wednesday, everyone!  I have some fun news to share with you today!  The girls at The Color Throwdown have asked me to be their June Guest Designer!  How fun!   The colors for this week's CTD144 were  chosen by the hostess, Cathy Rulli. 


For my card I am using Flourishes Life Lines stamp set. I kept this card pretty simple.  I stamped the sentiment in Memento Rose Bud and sponged the edges with Ranger Marmalade.  I added a little branch rose twig I got with some blog candy out in blogland.  I cannot remember who exactly, but thank you so much!  It is perfect! I love that the leaves have touches of pumpkin pie at the ends.  Finished with seam binding and bow!
