Hope thats ok! 2nd: Stamptacular Sunday Challenges #51: I had to create a card with a scene on it. I used the TAG as my ocean scene inspiration! Waves.. sunset! 3rd: Stamp Something : The challenge was to distress!

Wow! Its been forever since i've done a card challenge. This card is for 3 challenges.. 1. Peachy Keen Stamps - we had to use the follow sketch and we had to have a peachy keen stamp. Well, the only PKstamp i own is the smiley faces. I hope to get more if i WIN!! :) hint hint! 2. Stamp Something - The requirement was the card had to be green & cream. I used different shades of green and cream colors. The bling is a deep green. 3. Cricut Card Challenge #16- Requirements.. Make a card for spring using flower, birds or butterflies from any cartridge and any color. Well, for the butterfly i used the home accents cart. Sidenote: i'm gonna send this card to someone..

OMG.. This months challenges were HARD!! Challenge 1: RAINBOW BRITE: challenge is to make a layout using every color of the rainbow {red, orange, green, blue and violet} PLUS white+grey+black OR cream+kraft+brown. You can use any shade or tone of a particular color that you like. For example, pink is a shade of red, so using pink on your layout will fulfill your red requirement Challenge #2: Acid Wash Jeans--challenge is to make a layout or project that incorporates stamping with bleach. Note: since bleach is acid, this project will not be archival safe. (waiting for FERN To buy me bleach!) Challenge #3: Breakfast Club--challenge is to create a layout about eating. For example, my husband and I have a tradition of making a fabulous Sunday brunch together each week. It's a chance to be together in the kitchen, read the paper, relax and enjoy each other's company. It's something I've really missed since he's been gone. Your layout doesn't have to be about breakfas
