July Papertrey Blog Hop

It's Blog Hop time over at PTI! Here is the card that I created to play along with this month's challenge. I have been using butterflies a lot lately and after my last card I told myself I wouldn't use them for a while. Well, that was until this morning when I saw PTI's photo inspiration! So here we go again...

I wanted to keep this card simple so I started out using Card Patterns Sketch 125 but it just wasn't turning out like I expected. I had very little time to play around with it, so this is what I ended up with. I also tried to use the colors from the 3 pillows on the right as well as the stripes from the middle pillow...and of course, the butterflies! :)

Here is the photo inspiration from PTI along with the sketch from Card Patterns Sketch 125:

Summer Card Camp 2011 - Week 4

WOW, week 4 of Summer Card Camp! Here is the card that I made using this week's color combination.

I combined this week's color challenge with Mojo Monday 200 sketch challenge for this card.

Here is the color combo from Summer Card Camp:

Congrats Housewarming Card

This is a card that I made for a friend who just recently bought a new house. Congrats on your new house Janice!

This card took me a while to finish...I walked by it several times during the course of a week before I could finally put it all together. Not sure why, but that happens to me every now and then.

Fence and flowers are Jolee's stickers which I had for a long time and I insisted on finally using them. House stamp is from Stampology and sentiment is from Hero Arts.

Summer Card Camp 2011 - Week 3

Here is the card that I made for this week's Summer Card Camp. A simple card to make using some of my favorite colors and of course I had to add some extra bling! :)

Here is the color combination for this week:

Be the CHANGE...

Here is a CAS card that I made using the Summer Card Camp, Week 2 color combination. This quote is one of my all time favorite quotes and I couldn't resist buying it when I first saw it. I've had it for a long time and it sits on my desk but I've never used it. As I was cleaning up from making my first card today, this stamp caught my attention and this was the result of my attempt to clean up! :)

I used the same patterned paper from my first card for this week's color challenge. Can you tell that I love this color combination? :)

Here is another look at the color combo:
