Addicted to CAS 210 // Inspired By 195 // As You See It 263

  3 challenges inspired today's card...

As You See It // #AYSI263 ...A recipe challenge!! The five ingredients called for...one word sentiment (MERRY), embossing folder (tree is embossed with retired folder), ribbon or twine (cream cording), punch or die (I used both tree & circle dies and tag punch), and neutrals (kraft, chocolate, and cream).

Inspired By // #IB195 ...An inspiration challenge with an optional sketch.  From the
picture I pulled the tree and the neutral colors.  I also used the sketch but converted it to a circle base.

Addicted to CAS // #210 ...A code word challenge!! The code word for this current challenge is CIRCLE!!  So...I made a circle card!!

Time Out Challenges 200 // Try Stampin On Tuesday 532

 2 Cards each inspired by 1 challenge...

Card #1...

Time Out Challenge // #200 ...A word challenge!! PRECIOUS is the word for this current challenge.  This one stumped me for a while...no gem stamps...what else can I use?? How about a baby card...nothing is more precious than a brand new baby!!  So out came Stampin Up's Treasures of Life set.  Those hands...aren't they just PRECIOUS!??!

Card #2...

Try Stampin On Tuesday // #tsot532 ...A sketch challenge!! This card was originally made for yesterday's post but then I felt like it wasn't masculine enough for the Cardz 4 Guyz challenge. The gingham was just to girly...so while it does fit the gingham, checks, or plaids theme portion of our challenge it really wasn't masculine enough for the Cardz 4 Guyz challenge!!  That means another entry for the Try Stampin on Tuesday sketch challenge...oh and I do think I hit the optional COZY theme too!

Verse of the Day:

“There is no one holy like the Lord ; there is no one besides you; there is no Rock like our God.

Cardz 4 Guyz 284 // Try Stampin On Tuesday #532

 2 challenges inspired today's card...

Cardz 4 Guyz // #C4G284 ...A masculine challenge using gingham, checks, or plaids!!  Now here is a true challenge for you...because so often ginghams and plaids are feminine by nature!!  Lucky for me I still had some designer papers in my stash that helped me accomplish this challenge!!  I can't wait to see what the rest of you come up with!!  Head on over to Cardz 4 Guyz and play along with our current challenge!!

Gingham, Checks, or Plaids

Try Stampin On Tuesday // #tsot532 ...A sketch challenge!! This sketch was perfect for showcasing both plaids and ginghams called for in the above challenge.  And since plaid and ginghams give off that cozy blanket feel...I am also claiming the "cozy" theme that is optional with this sketch.

Verse of the Day:

Joyful are those who obey his laws and search for him with all their hearts.
