Becky's Compose a Card Challenge #9

Life has just gotten away from me the past few weeks....hate when that happens!  I have missed the past 2 challenges so I am really glad I was able to get a card done for this week. I hope to go back and do the 2 I missed as I challenged myself to do them all.  Here is Becky's challenge and inspiration picture for this week:


I have been dying to use some Cosmo Cricket Material Girl papers on something so I pulled those out to get me started on my colors scheme. I cut my card using my Cricut, used a Nestability and everything else is PTI.  Here is what I came up with...sorry for the glare. I am still working on getting the right lighting down in my dungeon.



Thanks so much for looking......I really appreciate it!

"Compose a Card" challenge number 6

I picked up a new border punch at Michael's yesterday and I wanted to play with it so I figured  I might as well work it into my challenge card for this week. After looking at it, it reminded me of PTI's Dot Spot set so 2 elements of the card were decided fairly easily! Here are the challenge details for this week:



Aren't those colors pretty together? And I love embossing so this was a fun card to play with!

Here is my take on the challenge:



I am sooo enjoying these challenges.....guess I should send some cards instead of hoarding them though huh?!? 

Thanks for looking!

"Compose a Card" Challenge

I finally got my card done for this week's challenge. I actually did two since everything was out. I just changed a few details so they are slightly different. Here are the challenge details for this week:

 





I love these colors and love all things polka dot so this was a really fun one to work with!! Thanks again Becky! Here are the two cards I came up with....

 


Both are pretty simple.....that seems to be my norm. I have been waiting for Everyday Button Bits to be in stock for weeks now so I was very excited to see it last weekend. It arrived Friday and I could not wait to ink it up...love those cherries! 

Thanks so much for stopping by!!

Becky's "Compose a Card" challenge 4

I am so glad I was able to get another card done this week for Becky's challenge. It is great to be storing up a variety of cards for future use! Here are the details for this week's card:




I REALLY loved  this color combo and pretty much stayed true to her design.  I did not have a negative stamp (guess I need to fix that!) so I just stamped on black cardstock with Fresh Snow ink. I made the flower following Dawn McVey's tutorial here. I used regular printer paper, stamped it with Text Style II and then went over the pieces with Smokey Shadow ink. I also used some Ripe Avocado ribbon to make leaves.





Thanks so much for looking!
