You Amaze Me


  4 challenges inspired today's card...

Just Us Girls // #JUG770 ...A word challenge!! YOU is the word of the week!!  When I saw this week's challenge, I right way thought of this YOU die that is retired from Stampin Up.  It is perfect for creating a YOU themed card.

The Paper Players // #PP733 ...A color challenge!!  Purple, Yellow, Aqua, and Green...a springy combination!!  I had this green chalked up embossed background left over from a "crafting date" with my nephew and it seemed perfect for the starting point of this challenge...I just on it with layers using the remaining colors.

Can You Handle The Pressure // 12APR25 ...An embossing challenge with an optional theme!!  Rainbow colors is the optional theme of this current challenge.  I sorta used it...I used 4 of the 7 colors of the rainbow in pastel!!  I think pastel colors are actually more realistic to what we see in the sky...don't you agree?!?  Back to the embossing part, I used a Tim Holtz embossing folder for my base and the layered up embossed pieces of my card.

Colorful Options // APR2025 ...A color challenge!!  Pastels!!  Textures!!  That is my inspiration from April's color board.  I love the textures offered in the lower left hand corner of the board and my light purple, yellow, aqua, and green seemed fitting for the colors this month.
