Fusion {Hypothesis #7}

Squeaking in a card for this week's Fusion Card Challenge.

I have to say that I really struggled this week with the inspiration.  Loved the photo and the sketch but the fusion and still making it my own--wasn't working for me.  I persevered and came up with a card that I will be giving to my niece who just got engaged this past weekend at the cottage!  

So excited for this fabulous couple!

Here is my card:

CAS(E) this Sketch #28

A last minute submission for this week's CAS(E) this Sketch challenge.

I had it all set up that I was going to combine this week's colourQ with this sketch, but I got in the zone well creating my card for colourQ and my card ended up nothing like the sketch.  LOL  So a good reason to create another card.  I used my Hero Arts Shadow Inks and the coverage is amazing.

Have a great day!

colourQ #190

Happy Tuesday and time for another colourQ palette!

Rich jewel tones based off of this fabulous umbrella that Arielle happened upon.

I used my Waltzingmouse Camellia stamps for my card, I think this has to be one of the most gorgeous flower sets I have ever owned.  So much detail in every single bloom.

We hope that you come a play with us this week at the colourQ and while you are there make sure to visit the blogs of the rest of the Design Team to see their fabulous creations.

CASE Study Challenge #141

Happy Victoria Day Canada!

A much needed holiday weekend and fabulous weather. 

I think that winter has finally left the building!

Another fabulous card this week by Maile Belles.  I love to CASE Maile because her CAS style is always so fresh.  This is her card for this week, don't you just want downright copy her?

10 Minute Craft Dash #18

I haven`t done the 10 Minute Craft Dash in a long time.  Week after week I save the colour palette and then don`t get to it. I was having trouble getting to sleep tonight so I figured tonight is the night.  I thought I was doing so good until the first butterfly I put on he card didn`t work.  So I die cut another butterfly, found the co-ordinating stamp and did the exchange.  

Coming in at 9:41.7 minutes, here is my card.

All supplies are from Papertrey Ink unless otherwise noted.

Cardstock:  White, Lemon Tart, Lavendar Moon, Spring Moss

Patterned paper: Lemon Tart Patterned Paper Pack
