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!

Simple Pleasures!



I had a bit of time to stamp for fun today! WooHoo! Of course, there are things around the house that I could have done, but I really needed to stamp!





This is the room I chose as my inspiration!


I am also doing The Corrosive Blog Challenge for the GUYS! This week we are make a card for the guys! Goodness that is so hard for me. I still added my fou fou bow and a butterfly. The butterfly is marine mist and only sports one gold pearl so I am thinking it can be a manly butterfly. The bow is brown? This is about as manly as I can get I am thinking.  This card is also for Speedy the Cats Friend Challenge #18!

I like to cheat the nesties from time to time to get more bang for my buck.  I am using the new lacey squares, but I needed a rectangle.  So, I cut out two and pieced together.  You really cannot tell and I think it looks great!  Thrilled about this look!
