Less Is More Challenge #419 & Freshly Make Sketches Challenge #434

A few days ago I created a white on white card...the current challenge from Less Is More is to create a card using cream on white!!  For my cream on white card I am also using the sketch challenge from Freshly Made Sketches.  


#bethegift challenge: Write a card to the person you prayed for yesterday!

Tic Tac Toe Challenge #063 & CAS(E) this Sketch #371

Another duo of challenges! Sketch challenge from the CAS(E) this Sketch team and a three in a row from the Tic Tac Toe team.  My win goes across the middle of the board...Purple//Stickers//Digital stamp.  

Sunday Stamps Challenge #230 & Global Design Project #239

White on White!!  I love it when I see it done by others but I'm never as excited with them when I try it.  Anyway it was perfect for the Global Design Project challenge to create a wedding themed card.  And....I used the sketch challenge from Sunday Stamps.  

#bethegift challenge: Set a timer today: pray 3 times for someone who is really hurting!

Global Design Project #239 & The Color Throwdown Challenge #592

WEDDING....was the theme challenge from the Global Design Project team.  Today I paired their challenge with the color combo from the Color Throwdown challenge.  The current color combo is...teal, aqua, gold and gray.  

#bethegift challenge:  Leave one note of encouragement in an unlikely place today!!

#ShareSunshine

Here are two more cards created using the Share Sunshine digital downloads from Stampin Up.   This 15 page download has so many fun quarantine quotes and images.  Stampin Up created it as a fund raiser for charity during this Covid-19 pandemic.  

This first card was created for the CASology challenge...MAGICAL.   I feel like it requires some magic to be "all here" and yet have to be apart!!  Don't you agree?!!?   I have even had to get creative with how we can accomplish this!!




My second card was created for the Library Challenge.  The book for this current challenge is The Girl on the Train.  For this challenge we are given a book and asked to create a card that is inspired by the cover, title, or story. Several elements of inspiration... The double lined lettering carried over to my card in the double strands of gray cording.  The sketch...red off center with the heart "peeking" out.  And the color combo...gray/black/red...one of my all time favorites!!  So classy!!  

#bethegift challenge:  Ministry of smiling day!! Smile at as many people as you can today...mask and all!!  Right now with smiles so often hidden it is even more important!!

Hand Stamped Sentiments #338 & Paper Players Challenge #489

Here is my take on two challenges.  The sketch from Hand Stamped Sentiments and the "make you smile" challenge from The Paper Players.  When I first saw this image/sentiment from Stampin Up's digital downloads fund raising special I couldn't stop smiling!!  How perfect for this season we find ourselves in.  


#bethegift challenge:  Give up one this this month.  Use that money to bless another person.  These prompts were written several years ago by Ann Voskamp when times were not so crazy, with that being said...let me add...A lot of us have already have had to give things up just in order to make ends meet, but even in tough times it always is rewarding to live generously.

Addicted to CAS Challenge #183

Silhouette....that is the code word for the current Addicted to CAS challenge.  Nothings says silhouette like a watercolored background and a die cut out of black card stock.  I used Stampin Up's Friendly Silhouettes die for creating my card.  Once again the sentiment that I used is part of the digital downloads from Stampin Up's Share Sunshine fund raising project in relation to the Corona virus.


#bethegift challenge: Go for a walk today with someone...inhale fresh air...laugh...enjoy the sunshine.
