Sketchy Time

Good Morning Fellow Crafters

It's Saturday, the sun is shining and it's a long weekend (in Canada) - what more could a girl ask for?

Not much really!!

Last night I had some crafty time and decided to play along with a sketch challenges.

The card is for the sketch at :

CPS

I did a square card so my dimensions are a bit different :

And a close up of the coloring :

What do you think?

Hopefully you like!!

I am off to enjoy the beautiful day.

Take care.

Fab 'n Funky - Colors that Clash

Hello Everyone,

Another wonderful Wednesday!!

It's new challenge day at Fab 'n Funky.

This week we are challenging everyone to mix up colors that don't usually go together. I know many of us use all sorts of colors in our card making - but let try and see if we can challenge ourselves to go out of the comfort zone and mix it up!!

Here are two cards that have un-traditional color combos.

I thought it might be fun to combine brown, black, olive and yellow.

What do you think?

I am also submitting this card for the current challenge at :

2 Sisters - Anything Goes

&

Copic Oz - All About the Hair

and for card #2 :

I combined orange, purple and brown.

I still think she's a cutie patootie.

I am submitting this card for the :

Anything Goes challenge : Flowers

Well, I hope you will come on over to Fab 'n Funky and join in the fun.

Have a good day.

Thanks for popping by.

Celebrate with LOTV

Happy Canada Day

to my fellow Canadians!!

This morning I am going to show a fun and out-of-the-box card that I made for my mom. She has a wedding to go to next weekend and wanted a creative gift card holder. I searched You-Tube for some creative card and found a great tutorial for a double-pull card. You can find it here.

Here's what I came up with :

This is the CLOSED view

And this is the OPEN view

The gift card pocket is on the top and there is room for a little writing on the botton. And it all slides back closed to fit nicely in an envelope. Love it!!

Here is another little close-up of the coloring. I even colored thier hair the actual colors of the bride and groom. (A little personal touch).

I am submitting this card for the :

LOTV - Celebrate challenge

Hope you enjoyed and have a great weekend!!
