colourQ Courtiers for cQc#161

Yet another nice surprise!!  This time with colourQ for the card I made with Mojo Monday's sketch MOJO265.  I was selected as one of the colourQ Courtiers for the challenge.  Many thanks to colourQ and the wonderful DTs for all the inspirations and recognition.  And thanks to Nance for your comment.  If I had not signed on my blog to read the comments, I would never have found out about this!!

Pals Paper Arts Artist Pick Winners - PPA146

Hurray!!  The last card I made before taking a hiatus to focus on healing is a PPA Artist Pick.  I have not been signing in to my blog to read the comments and decided to do so this evening.  Lo and behold, a message from Mike Funke to contact him.  I went into his profile to make sure it was not a hoax and found his delightful blog.  Thank you to all the wonderful DTs for the recognition.

Time Out

Taking some time off to focus on the teachings of Bruno Groening.  Will be back soon with more cards...

Sending Warm Fuzzies with Blooms

Lovely sketch from CAS(E) this sketch CTS#4 and Pals Paper Arts PPA146

 

I used solely Spellbinders Carnation Creations for this card

with sentiment from Hero Arts Everyday Messages.

Papers used ~ vanilla DCWV, plain red card and recycled box card.

All on a white card.

Freshly Made with Dynamic Duos

This card is made for two of my favourite challenges
Dynamic Duos #26 ~ Monochromatic and Freshly Made Sketches FMS59

I have grown to love pairing color challenges with sketches.
I do not have the exact colours but I think the sketch turned out rather well.
The black banner is embossed with Sizzix Polka Dots.
The scalloped squares and butterflies are Spellbinders.

Thank You MOJO265 and cQc161

I love Mojo Monday MOJO265 so much that I made another card with the sketch.
This time with colourQ's cQc#161,
using orange, black, saffron and white cardstocks with
Cosmo Cricket's Salt Air paper,
Spellbinders Scalloped Circle and Dahlia dies,
and Kaiser Sentiment Rub on.
Completed the card with a black and white button.

MOJO265 ~ Thinking of You

Fabulous sketches again, Mojo Monday!  Square peg for me.

I have had a leave of absence from card making for almost 2 week.
When I saw this sketch, I had to get cracking before I rusted further.

A rather simple square card using

1 patterned paper

2 scalloped squares from Spellbinders

3 words ~ Thinking of you

4 colours ~ mustard yellow, green, black and white

topped with a bright dragonfly from Spellbinders.
