MOJO #382 & Color My Heart Color Dare #126

Both MOJO #382 & Color My Heart Color Dare were quite a challenge for me for some reason, but I am happy with the results!  

Here's what I used (available on my CTMH website):

"Have a Happy Day" stamp set

White Daisy, Black and Indian Corn Blue Cardstock

Archival Black Ink

Spray Pen

Clear Sparkles

Discontinued: Ribbon & Black Sequins

Other: 

Silver Chevron Paper by Amy Tangerine

retrosketches #150, Close to My Heart, Studio Calico & Teresa Collins

Oh my, I have to say this was an extra fun card to make!  I have kind of been hoarding my gold polka dot velum that is from a CTMH campaign kit last year but decided that this would be a great time to break it out.  The reason is because I picked up some fun gold accents by Teresa Collins and I think the gold doily is just the perfect background for this retrosketches challenge # 150!  It all paired so nicely with Close to My Heart Whimsey Paper Fundamentals Cardstock and Sudio Calico Brighten Pier Paper Collection.  Talk about hoarding? I bet I've had the gold puffy heart and heart button, which are from Close to My Heart also, for over 10 years!!   That's what prompted me to also play along over at Heart to Heart Challenges. It would have been a good Valentine's Day card but I'm in need of a birthday card right now. The sentiment is from "Just to Say" and comes in the Close to My Heart Artfully Sent Cricut cartridge bundle. 

CTMH Hopping By and Cricut Art Philosophy cartridge

I've really been looking forward to playing with more of the images from the CTMH "Hopping By" stamp set and the Addicted to Stamps and More #128 was a perfect way to combine the Heart 2 Heart Tic Tac Toe and Freshly Made Sketches #170 challenges all together.

Supplies available on my CTMH website:

"Hopping By" stamp set
Cricut "Art Philosophy" cartridge
ShinHan markers
Clear Sparkles (colored markers)
White Daisy cardstock
Special cardstock from "Year >>Noted" National Papercrafting Month special

Other:

DCWV Patterned Paper

Tuesday Morning Sketches 284 & Close to My Heart Hopping By

Here's my submission for the fun Tuesday Morning Sketches #284. I stamped and colored these little bunnies over a year (may be two) ago!  I knew I would use them because my grandson wanted me to make him an Easter card so now here it is finally!  The sentiment is from the current CTMH Seasonal Expressions but the bunnies have long since retired.  Everything else is pretty much just all older also from my stash.

Muse #101, Friday Mashup! 193 & Color Throwdown #326. CTMH Happy Birds

Here's what I made quite last night (so it's not perfect!) to play along with Muse #101, Color Throwdown #326 & Friday Mashup! 193 even though it was too late to link up at FM193 I just thought it was a great challenge. Boy it's been a while since I have combined so many challenges. 
The flower & feather stamps are from the CTMH Happy Birds set they're stamped in black CTMH ink. The cardstock is all CTMH - White Daisy, Topiary and Lagoon.  I embossed with the chevron embossing folder & colored with ShinHan Twin Touch markers from CTMH and available on my site also.
