Wee Memories Challenge #12, Red, White, and Blue Color Challenge

The Wee Memories challenge this week is to incorporate Red, White, and Blue into our projects.

Here is what I came up with quickly. I now have a head start on next years 4th of July cards! :)

Stamped Woodgrain background in VersaMark ink and poured embossing powder to heat set.  I really love how it came out and so pretty and shinny! Which is not really showing up in this photograph. urgh!

I then used my Big Shot die cutting machine for my scallop border die and spellbinders cut. Next I used my Cricut for the star. I stamped a Hero Arts Fancy Flourishes image on my scalloped rectangle in SU Real Red, and then I stamped my Happy 4th Sentiment by Our Craft Lounge and punched it out and added it to my star. Easy Peasy. For a finishing touch I added a Pure Poppy button at the top of the card.

Thanks for looking!

Embellish Magazine Color Challenge **Baby Theme**

I am back with another Embellish Magazine Color Challenge with a baby theme. The colors we are to use are Yellow, Cream, Peach, and Green.

My inspiration came from my son's nursery! The theme in his room was Moons and Stars.

I used cream as my card base and layered peach on top of that which I found in my scrap box.  While rummaging through my scrap box I challenged myself to see if I could finish the rest of my card using my scraps. Sure enough everything I needed was in there. {yeah}


I stamped the peach card stock with Papertrey Ink's Polka Dot Basic's II using VersaMark Ink. I used the Cricut to cut the stars and moon. I used my Divine Swirls embossing folder to add texture to the top star! I added foam mounting squares to add dimension to the Star.
