Color Hues Challenge #127 - Peach and Teal - Thanks for Everything (Better Press)

Hello,

Welcome to Colour Hues Challenge #127, where our lovely Jules has selected Peach and Teal as our inspiration for the next two weeks. So pretty!

We're delighted to have Gundi joining us as our Guest Designer; her card is amazing.

My card features a Better Press plate that I've had for well over a year. Time for it to make a debut - and so it has! Prismacolour pencils for the flowers; teal cardstock for the background panel; a trio of teal enamel dots.  Simple! 

Please head over to the main blog to see fabulous cards from our guest designer and my talented team.

Looking forward to your Peach and Teal creations.

The challenge will be open until February 28th at 9:00am (EST).

The winners will be posted an hour before our next challenge and the overall

 winner will have the opportunity to be a future Guest Designer.

Thank you for dropping by!

Inkspirational Challenge #361 - Visual Prompt - February Collage - Heart Frogs Valentines

Hello,

Welcome to Inkspirational Challenge #361.

We're continuing to 'spread the love' here for the next two weeks (Feb. 14 - Feb. 27) with inspiration coming from the variety of love/Valentine-themed images in the collage below. Rainbows, hearts, gnomes, Cupid's arrows, postage stamps, bouquets, the 'love' vibe...so much to capture your imagination.

(larger photo on the main blog)

I've created two cards for this challenge, both inspired by the 'love' vibe, the word Love on the bottom left, the colours and the 'singleness' of the images that, together, create this wonderfully whimsical collage.  My 'single' image for both cards: frogs, that are part of the delightful Heart Frogs ephemera from Simply Stated Design.

This little Frog Prince is ready to come a-courting, isn't he!  

And this frog is certainly dapper with his rainbow umbrella and bejeweled heart! 

Please head over to the main blog to see fabulous inspiration from my team.

Looking forward to seeing how this photo inspires you.
Let's spread the love...this month and all months!

Hello,

Welcome to Just Us Girls Challenge #810. I'm delighted to be your hostess for Word Week, where I've selected VALENTINE as inspiration. Even though Valentine's Day is February 14th (this Saturday, already), it's impact continues far beyond a single day. It's all about sharing and spreading love in a myriad of forms. Think: Valentine's Day, date night, Galentines, friendships, family...and so much more. 💕 Let's celebrate the Valentines - the people we love - throughout this week...this month...this year.

Once again, we welcome Denise  Morgan as our February Guest Designer. 

I've created two cards using Love Bots ephemera from Simply Stated Design, die cut words from Lawn Fawn and hearts from Studio Light. So much fun when companies play together to help spread love!

Looking forward to seeing your Valentine-themed cards/projects filling the gallery.

Please head to the main blog to see fabulous inspiration from Denise and the rest of my talented team.
