Sweet Thing

 


4 challenges inspired today's card...

AAA Cards // #318 ...A clean and simple "follow my lead" challenge!!  For this current challenge we are following Marlies.  I used a new embossing folder from Darice and created an embossed strip instead of a black and white strip.

Alphabet Challenge // 26JUN26 ...An ABC challenge!!  E is for embossing.  I embossed a full folder in white and then cut out three of the images and colored them.  I used the left over bit for my side panel and envelope.

Double D Challenges // 1JULY26 ...A "visual prompt" challenge!!  My inspiration from the visual given...the watermelon slices!!  I know they are candy in the photo but fresh works, doesn't it?!?

FarmQuest Challenges // #84 ...A "farm & country" challenge with a theme!!  The theme for this current challenge is FRUIT, GARDEN, or ORCHARD.  I picked the fruit element for today's card.



Never Before Used // #NBUS88 ...

The NBUS blog doesn't give challenges but offers a great place to show off those items that have "never been used"...whether they are brand new or items that you have had for a while but haven't gotten around to using.  Today I am using a brand new embossing folder from Darice that I picked up on my trip to VA at the Green Valley Book Fair.

  2. Thanks for the verse of the day. Watermelon is one of my husband's favorite summer fruits. Your card is so cute. I like the embossing and the simplicity of the way your card looks. [Bunny]

  3. What a wonderful summer-inspired card. I love tthe CAS design and how you used the embossed watermelon motif twice - once in form of a white background, and once as the main motif. I'm sure the sweet fruit is the highlight of many summer birthdays. Thanks for joning the Alphabet challenge.

    Hugs, Veronika

  4. Nice! I don't eat watermelon but I love the color of it! Great folder for your added strip of dimension to go with the images. Thanks for sharing with us at the Alphabet Challenge.
