Card Creations & More by C Challenge #1

May I say that I just love making these flowers. They are so pretty and so easy to make. I thought a basket full of flowers would help spring feel just a little closer. (As we are getting snow today)
I made these for the very first challenge at Card Creations & More by C.  We were to make anything but not a card.  I am excited to be one of her design team members.  Hope you join us for the challenge and check out what everyone else made. 

The paper I used is from DCWV Summer Dream paper pack.
I used a few scalloped circles and decide that I liked the one from Mini Monograms best, since it creates two different looks depending on how I folded the circles.  Inked the edges and then glued them together. See my post here for the link of where I got the idea and directions of how to make them.

Scallop card

I have seen some cute scallop circle cards. They are sooo cute. I am excited that I finally made one. I did this one for Monday Mojo Challenge 154. It also fit the Cricut Cutz Challenge # 40 of scalloped circles and squares. My final thought was to also  use only black and white and one other color, so I could enter it into Momo's challenge # 31 this week. I have never done three challenges with one project, mainly because I like doing the challenges that it doesn't bother me to do a couple at a time and I like to keep my project simple.

The Scallop circle and the circles are cut from alphalicious and the scallop square and squares are from mini monograms. Lastly the clovery things are from Storybook.

Strawberry Card for Card Patterns Sketch 73 Challenge

I did my second card for Card Patterns Sketch 73 Challenge.  I was a bit nervous of this one.  I was not even sure if I liked the pattern, but after this one came together, I am rather thrilled with the layout and happy I did it.  It looks rather simple, but it has a bunch of layers.    I used Close to my heart paper for both pinks and the brown is papertrey ink.  I used the Mini Monograms & Hello Kitty Greetings cartridges.  Inked the edges and used a white gel pen for stitching.
