Southern Scraps

I combined several challenges with the next two cards. Both of them feature die cuts cut with my Sizzix for the Dutch Dare Card Challenge. The first one is for the Flourishes Timeless Tuesday challenge to use shimmerz or anything to make it sparkle. I don't have shimmerz so I used Stickles to make that big bow shiny and sparkly. The layout for this card is the sketch from the Little Paper shop and the color theme was inspired by PaperTake Weekly's Color combo challenge. I chose pink and yellow. Little Paper Shop also has a challenge to make a birthday card and it can be combined with the sketch. A Spoonfull of Sugar also challenges you to use swirls this week, so I've used a swirl on my card. Stamp: Flourishes All Wrapped Up Paper: K&Co. Accents: Stickles, Fiskars border punch, flowers 2 die cuts and swirl by Sizzix Next is another card using die cut corners. This card is for Digital Tuesday Challenge. It's Christmas in July.

Really fancy or fun packaging makes the simplest gift feel super special. The Timeless Tuesday challenge at Flourishes Newsletter this week was to make a tag. Here's mine: Details are really simple. Cardstock; patterned paper by HOTP; Martha Stewart lace doily punch; Flourishes All Wrapped up stamp set, color pencils, ribbon, nestabilities. Thanks for looking and have a great week.

I used the sketch from CPS this week for a sympathy card I needed to make. And even before I checked in on the Timeless Tuesday challenge at Flourishes, I knew I wanted to use this flower stamp. As it turned out, the Timeless Tuesday challenge is to use flowers. I like this card because it's simple and peaceful to look at. The sketch is really clean. I added a little more texture by stitching and tearing and rolling the edges. Enough from me, have a peek for yourself.
