Happy Saturday!

Hello!
Oh boy I have a long post today but I do hope you'll still read and look....lol
It's Saturday which means it's time for Lauren's My Time To Create Challenge!
Here is a sneak peek of the girl's work....Lauren put together a little collage...love it! I can't wait to see the full cards now!
Here is my card I created with the sketch 32 which you can find below ;)
This weekend is Lauren's birthday and to celebrate we thought it would be fun to make our sketch cards birthday cards too! I decided to pull out a very fun set from Unity called Giggle Grove. My colour inspiration actually came from a jar of primas that I've NEVER used...shame on me eh? LOL! You'd think maybe I would have used one or two on this card but nope...couldn't figure out where to put :(
Stamps: Giggle Grove, PTI birthday sentiments; Cardstock: Choc chip, Old olive, Tangerine,PTI Berry Blush, White and DP; Inks: Memento Rich Cocoa, White Craft; Accessories: Copics, paper snips, choc poly twill, flower trio punch, kaiser rhinestones, stardust stickles, dimensionals, photo corner punch
Now stop by and see what all the other fabulous Saturday My Time To Create Challenge girls have come up with!
Here is the sketch and if you play along be sure to go to Lauren's blog and use Mr. Linky so your card can be seen. Also please use keyword mytimess32 when you upload to SCS :)
I just can't get enough of these cute new Sugarplum's from All That Scraps! This is Emma and she will be available on Monday evening. I've used Taylor's TECC66 for my card but did move the three embellishments to the bottom as it worked better for my card ;)
Stamps: Sugarplum Emma, AmyR's Beach Sentiments; Cardstock: Real Red, White, AC dp; Inks: Memento black; Accessories: Copics, nesties, primas, silver brads, dimensionals
I combined a couple of challenges for this card. This one was for the Limited Supply Challenge of creating a border with stamps and also the WSC79 that is being hosted by Jenn Balcer. I've used a new set from H & M Stamps called Seeds of Kindness. As I type this up...the new sets still aren't on the site and I'm not sure when they will be but keep looking :)
Stamps: Seeds of Kindness; Cardstock: PTI plum pudding, lemon tart, white; Inks: Plum pudding, Lemon tart, Black; Accessories: Nesties, Bazzill flower, Prima flower, Silver brad
Thanks for stopping by today!

I love the colours you used for your sketch card. Too funny that you used primas for inspiration, but couldn't find a place to put one on your card :)
I love the giggle groove set from Unity too, and that is a great use of it.

Oh my...your work never fails to amaze me :O) LOVE all of your cards, especially the one you made for the sketch. I was laughing about you finding inspiration for your color scheme from a jar of primas that you ended up not using on your card! LOL I think we have a few things in common...this is something I would totally do! Also love how you added the small, punched flowers to the tree. Very clever!

Have a great weekend, girl!

All three cards are fantastic, Dawn! I'm not a prima girl, even though I have a bunch!! Just can't seem to work them in on my cards!!

Denise Marzec said...

Oh WOW girl, these are GREAT!! I love the colors on the first one (great idea to take inspiration from a bottle of primas..I have lots of jars that I've never used either. Sometimes I think I buy them just because they look pretty in the bottle, LOL!) I really love the purple and yellow combo on the third card. I've always liked those colors together. Emma...well, she's just TOOO cute and you did a great job coloring her!

Renée said...

Hey girl. . .you've been busy! Aren't you suppose to be spring cleaning? LOL!

Trust me. . I have bottles of Primas that I bought over a year ago and have never opened the bottle but I keep buying more. I have this thing of hoarding them. So silly!

I love all your cards. . .all so different and so pretty! I love the color combo on your first card and the pretty flowers that you added. Great dp and cute image on your second card and fabulous color combo on your 3rd card too. I love what you did with the border! Very pretty!

Hope you have a fun day cleaning!!
