Fri-Yay!! 6.23.23

 2 Cards...

Card #1 inspired by 2 challenges...

Hand Stamped Sentiments // #HSS416 ...A sketch challenge!!  This sketch was perfect for playing with these vintage newsprint papers that I have been hoarding.  I replaced the circle with a layered die cut rose.  A vintage anniversary card perfect for a 50th wedding anniversary.  Not many people make it to the 50 year mark in today's culture...a real milestone worth celebrating!!

TicTacToe Challanges // #tttc214 ...A game board challenge!!  You will find my winning three in a row down the center of this game board.  For the win I used: patterned paper, flower, enamel dots.





Card # 2 inspired by 3 challenges...

Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challenge // #AHSC530 ...A sketch challenge!!  This sketch was the starting point for my card and I used all pieces and parts from my "extras" box.  You know...that box that holds all those things started but never finished, those larger scrap pieces worth saving, and those items that you cut out more than you needed.

Color Throwdown // #ctd748 ...A color challenge!!  Red, blue, brown, and white are the colors called for in this current challenge.  Oh and the photo has a nautical theme too...which you know I love!!

As You See It Challenge // #AYSI301 ...A speed stamping challenge!!  The challenge...make your card in under 10 minutes using seashells!!  Since this card was make completely from pieces and parts out my left over box, it was a really speedy card to glue together!!  Under 6 minutes!!  The trio of embossed panels brought back memories of my 2 year old granddaughter's last visit...she embossed a stack of card stock pieces from my stash.  She loved seeing the embossed paper come out of the big shot...I think she could have turned that crank all day!!

  3. Both cards are so cute, Deb! Love your take on our sketch - that rose die is still one of my favorites! And great job on the shells challenge! Maybe I need to start keeping a parts and pieces stash, too - that was a great time! Thanks so much for playing at Hand Stamped Sentiments AND As You See It!

  4. Great use of both of these sketches. I really love the die cut flower on the top card and the color combination. And the texture to the panels to the second card add a very nice touch.
