Color Throwdown Challenge #595 & Freshly Made Sketches #437

Turquoise...Black...White

This color combo from the Color Throwdown challenges stumped me for a while, but I love how it turned out.   The sketch challenge from Freshly Made Sketches was also part of the inspiration behind this card.
  
I used Stampin Up's So Many Shells stamp set for the sentiment and the shell.  The background stamps that I used were laying out on my work table and fit perfect for creating this fun back drop.  I think the dots are from Stampin Up's Penned and Painted set and the stripes are from their Gorgeous Grunge set.

Tic Tac Toe Challenge #062 & Freshly Made Sketches #433

Today I am playing along with the Tic Tac Toe challenge and the sketch challenge from Freshly Made Sketches.  For this Tic Tac Toe board I am playing along the top row...Pink//Die Cut//Grass.  I am using three of Stampin Up's stamp sets for this card...By the Dock bundle (frog stamp and die), Friend Like You (sentiments and grass), Gorgeous Grunge (pink background).

Paper Craft Crew Challenge #371

Gorgeous Grunge from Stampin Up seemed like the perfect stamp set for playing along with the Paper Craft Crew challenge this week.  I even used the colors called for in the sketch.
