Dynamic Duos #6-Thank You

Welcome to another week at Dynamic Duos!!! This week is a Soft and Subtle Colour Challenge using Regal Rose and Basic Gray. I love pink and gray together and decided to try the one flower in the Mixed Bunch set I had not tried yet!  The lacy flower is so pretty and delicate looking! I'll admit, my card is not very soft and subtle, when I chose the colours, the pink seemed a lot softer but I think it will be fine! I hope you think so too!

{Supplies Used}

Stamps: Mixed Bunch, Perfectly Penned

Inks: Regal Rose and Basic Gray

Paper: Regal Rose, White and Basic Gray

Tools and Extras: Blossom Punch, Brad (retired), White Organza Ribbon, Stripes Embossing Folder, Scallop Edge Die

I hope you get the chance to join us at Dynamic Duos!

Freshly Made Sketches #36 {A Sketch from Tui}

These next few weeks you will be seeing less of me on my blog as I have the opportunity to work with a children's chorus in "Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dream Coat". I will be sitting and teaching them songs rather than sitting and making cards! But it is only until June 15th and I will be back more regularly after that! 

This week I have my cards ready for all my challenges starting with Freshly Made Sketches! We have a fabulous sketch from lovely Tui Nathan and I was excited to break into the new IN Colour pack and to use the new Ink Pads! I used Raspberry Ripple, and I love it! Those new ink pads are amazing, and I will be buying up some new ones for the other colours too. 

We hope that you will join Freshly Made Sketches this week!  Please be sure to visit the other DT Members to see their wonderful creations!

Paper Players #96 {Happiness}

This week at the Paper Players, AM has an awesome Clean and Simple Challenge! She is looking for some Polka Dots! I LOVE Polka Dots! 

I inked up my new set called "Mixed Bunch" and used the colours from Colour Q. Then I punched out a couple of flowers, to match the Colour Q Graphic.  Then I used my bird punch to create the leaves for the flowers. I embossed the gray piece of cardstock with my Stripes embossing folder, to make it look like a fence.  The sentiment is from Fabulous Phrases and I cut it out with my new Framelits called "Bitty Banners". Oh I love them!!! The backdrop is embossed with the Swiss Dots embossing folder.

We hope that you will join the Paper Players Challenge this week!  Please be sure to visit the other DT Members to see their wonderful creations!
