Retrosketches 4 & 3

Well, I am still having LiveWriter issues today but hopefully this will post through Blogger!  I am just not computer-savvy enough to figure out why things happen the way they do!  Anyhoo, I needed a quick thank-you card, and the RetroSketches sketch#4 was perfect to get me started:

And here is my card, done in monochromatic shades of Wisteria Wonder:

I used Butterfly Prints, Short & Sweet and Style Beautiful, along with a Label Framelit and Adorning Accent Embosslit.  Here's a closer view:

I also did a card for the RetroSketch #3, but never got a chance to post it:

I used one of Arielle's digital images, colored with Copics.  I don't have a picture of Cassidy to share today, but how about one of Pumpkin, sleeping in one of her favorite places.....a SU box!

Enjoy your day!

Happy Butterfly Card

I wanted to share a card with you a made last week; I cased the idea from a swap card that I have had for years!  Here we go!   The front panel of the card folds up from the bottom:

The second panel folds from the inside; it is a bit shorter than a standard card front:

And then the inside panel holds the sentiment!

I think if I do this again, I’ll have the front panel fold down from the top!  Anyway, I had fun with the colors and images!  And my friend liked it (wink wink)!   If you have any questions about any of the products, be sure to zip me an email with your email address; I can’t respond to anonymous comments!

A big dipper for a wee little girl!  Be sure to come back tomorrow for a new ColourQ challenge!!

SSC234 & OCCC

Happy Saturday!  I had a chance to do a little stamping today and I found this beautiful color challenge at Our Creative Corner from my DT girlfriend, Anne Marie, and I just had to put it to good use:

My niece just graduated from nursing school, so I wanted to make her a congrats card.  I thought these colors would be fun—hope it’s okay that I didn’t make a holiday card!  Here we go:

 

I chose to use Bashful Blue, Pretty in Pink, Pink Pirouette and Cherry Cobbler as my colors.  I also used the sketch from Stamping 411 for this week:

Pumpkin was taking a little break on my computer desk this morning….overpowering a different kind of mouse!

At 18 years old, she still mouses like a champion!  And she has to put up with all kinds of distractions…Cassidy is getting ready to give her a kiss, although it looks like she is going to bite her, LOL!

Thanks for visiting today!  If you have any questions about stamps or accessories, let me know!
