Olympic color challenge plus the Mojo Monday sketch and the 2S4Y sketch

Today over at SCS we were challenged to make cards using the colors form the Olympic logo for this year. Below you will find 2 cards that I made for this challenge. One using the sketch from 2S4Y and one for the Mojo Monday Sketch. I may not be able to compete with these gifted atheletes but I can create in honor of them....so here is to all those men and women who are out there giving it their all!!



This card was made using the sketch from 2Sketch4You. My color combo is Taken with Teal, Summer Sun, and Real Red. I used a masked to stack up the birdies...added some color to them with my Stampin Up markers...punched out my sentiment using my oval punch...layered it on Summer Sun that had been punched out wit the large oval punch...added in the scallops using my MS border punch...added some ribbon to finish it off.




Today I decided to use the round sketch.....I am loving these round cards!! This card also fits the Olympic color combo....Pacific Point, and Real Red. I used my nessties to cut out each layer...the white layer I ran through my CB using the Distressed Stripes folder...my sentiment panel was also cut out with my nessties...I stamped the sentiment in Pacific Point...added some butterflies that I punched out of the same DP...finished it off with some ribbon and gold half beads.

Thanks for stopping by to have a good....I hope you all have a great week!!!

    Two great cards, Deb :D Love the stacked birds and the bright colours you used. Fabulous mojo card too :D

    Vancouver is a buzzin' after we won gold last night in the Ice Dancing and downtown is a zoo. Had between 400,000 and 500,000 people downtown this weekend (yup, we were part of that number). SO nice to see the national pride and spirit come out of a usually conservative nation. LOVE IT!!
