2 Challenges // 5.13.21

  

2 challenges inspired today's card...

Mojo Monday // #mojosketch559 ...A sketch challenge! These sketch was perfect for showcasing a smaller focal point.  Stampin Up's Lily Pad Lake and Friendly Silhouettes worked great together for small square focal point.

Just Us Girls // #JUG583 ...A trend challenge!  The trend for this current challenge...LAYERS!!  Oh boy does this card have the layers!! My heron is 5 layers thick...that is right, I cut out 5 images and glued them together creating my own "chip board". And the sketch challenge from Mojo Monday was already chocked full of layers!!

Just Add Ink #553 // TGIF Challenge #315 // Inspired By Challenge #173

 Two Cards...

Card #1 inspired by 2 challenges...

TGIF Challenge // #tgifc315 ...A color challenge!! The trio of color for this current challenge...Daffodil Delight//Mango Melody//Magenta Madness.  These three colors from Stampin Up are perfect for a floral card.

Inspired By // #IB173 ...A photo challenge with a sketch option!! I used both the photo and the sketch.  These card would have made a great Mother's Day card but it can also be sent at anytime since it actually doesn't included that sentiment.  Maybe it I don't use it or sell it this year I turn it into a Mother's Day card by adding that sentiment to the inside.

Card #2...
Here is my take on the sketch challenge from Just Add Ink.  #JAI553  I had fun playing with my new Flower Cactus Product Medley from Stampin Up.  The paper, the stamps, the dies, and the felt embellishments are so fun!
