Crafty Sundays

Don't you just love Sunday's in the Winter?  After Church I snuggled in the house for some nice crafty time.  It's too cold to do anything outside this time of year, the farm animals had been fed, and I had the entire day to myself. 

First up is a card I made for CardPatterns.  Take a look at Sketch 98:

I also made this card for a Moxie Fab World Challenge - "Gray Is The New Black".  Gray is such a fun color to work with and looks so good with pinks, teals, and any other color you can think of!  I'm so happy gray is getting the attention it deserves.

There is something so clean looking about the color gray, love it!  I used KI Memories Letters, Papertrey Ink Ribbon, and Creative Charms flower and jewels. 

Next up is another Moxie Fab World card for the Monochromatic Challenge:

                                    

Ah, darling pinks.  I used 3 different shades of pink to complete this challenge.  My pinks are brighter than the sample colors, but it was too cute not to post:

I used "lots" of Papertrey Ink Cardstock, Stamps, and Button.  My ribbon is American crafts.  And my cute crochet flowers and pink pearls are Creative Charms.

I also made a LO for Sketchy Thursdays "February Guest Designer Challenge". 

And here is my LO:

I used My Mind's Eye and Echo Park goodies for this LO.  Love the bright Springy colors.  My crochet flowers are Creative Charms.  This challenge had 3 other elements to make it more difficult - 1. Journal, 2. use a heart, 3. use red/or pink.  Fun Fun Fun!

Fab Challenges

Hi all!  How's January so far?  All it has done since the beginning of December is snow in Kentucky.  Constantly.  We don't even mention snowy days anymore, we comment on the days when there is no snow falling because it's a rarity!  I'm so ready for Spring and flowers and crickets and frogs chirping. 

I have a few challenges I took part in this week.  First up is a card I made for Moxie Fab World's Neutrals Color Challenge:

Oh how I love these soft colors, aren't they beautiful?  I also added this card to The Play Date Cafe's Color Challenge:

Very similar colors : )  And here is my card:

I am so addicted to My Mind's Eye at the moment, seems like that's all I use.  I added a darling bow using Papertrey Ink Ribbon and a Melissa Frances Rub-On. 

Next up is a fun sketch Shimelle created for her readers to use.  I love her blog, always full of wonderful tips and tricks.  Loved the sketch also:

And here's my take on the sketch:

This is Harley, my neighbor.  She's the cutest little dog and loves visiting on pretty Summer Days.  I used My Mind's Eye Patterned Paper and darling stickers from Echo Park.  I'm not big on using stickers, but I'm in love with Echo Park's and can't help myself.  The cute crochet butterflies are from Creative Charms.

I also have a Crop Spot post up at Scrapbooking Supplies R Us on nontraditional Valentine's using the newest Sampler Kit "A Bright New Year"! 

Enjoy!!!
