Love to Create Challenge - Something for Kids


Happy Monday, Today I am sharing my cards for this week's  new challenge over on my challenge blog
Love to Create Challenges


This week the team and I are sharing some inspiration with
images from one of our two fabulous sponsors 2CuteInk  and Di's Digi Downloads


 Our challenge theme this week is  

Something for Kids


2 Cute Ink has some adorable images perfect for kids projects.
Heidi sent the team over some images to create with and I decided to use all of them for a set of cards 


It was fun to create some CAS cards that will make a nice little gift set for 
one of the sweet little girls across the street. I made two of each design as 4 x 4 cards
and now just need to make a little tote to hold them in. Pretty sweet gift and perfect for a school aged child.


Hope I have inspired you to come join us at Love to Create Challenge, for a chance to win some fabulous prizes from our two wonderful sponsors!

New Sassy Studio Designs Challenge over on Paper Craft Planet Group Page

Hello and Happy Wednesday!

Sharing fun news about a new monthly challenge Sassy Studio Designs has started over on their group page at Paper Craft Planet! 

It's a monthly Progressive Challenge, where each month SSD will offer an image to our followers and a fun challenge to play along with. Each month you participate in the monthly challenge you will receive the next month image for free!!!

Our first Progressive challenge is perfect for the end of the school year and for those Graduates!!
This month's image is Sassy Graduation which makes a fun image for all those Graduation cards you are going to need!! 


For my card I started with a center step base and then was lost on what to do LOL!!
So after coloring up this fab image I begin looking through my stash of paper and found this one which 
I thought would work. So after cutting it up a bit, this is what I came up with. Wouldn't it be a wonderful card for one who majored in music or has a love for music?

If you would like your own Sassy Graduation image, then pop on over to our group page over on Paper Craft Planet - and join us this month for our Progressive Challenge - you can find the group page here.

Love to Create Challenge - Flowers and More Flowers

Happy Monday, Today I am sharing my cards for this week's  new challenge over on my challenge blog
Love to Create Challenges


This week the team and I are sharing some inspiration with
images from two of our fabulous sponsors Sassy Studio Designs and Beccy's Place

 Our challenge theme this week is  

Flowers, Flowers and More Flowers

Both sponsors generously offered images to team to create with, thank you to Sassy Studio and Beccy'Place


From Beccy's Place I choose to create with this beautiful image call Bicycle Blossom. 
Using papers from Jillibean Soup Blossom collection which where perfect match to my image and I created a  simple clean design as a "Just a Note" card. 


For Sassy Studio Designs I asked to play with the ever so sweet Honey The Netherlands.
I masked her with some single stamps from There She Goes "Blossom by Blossom" stamp set 
to create my design of her walking through a field of Tulips.  My papers are a mixture of scraps from my Scrap basket (gotta love when you can use up some beautiful scraps you just can't throw away).
My clouds were created using MTF small cloud die and then running them through the Cuttlebug with large dot folder. 

Hope I have inspired you to come join us at Love to Create Challenge, for a chance to win some fabulous prizes from our two wonderful sponsors!
