Scribble Posies

It's amazing how fast time goes by.  Here we are almost at the end of April and it's time for another Double Trouble Challenge.  

I am again presenting a card as a Crazy Cousin Guest Designer.  

This is for Double Trouble Challenge #215.


For this card, I started off embossing a piece of greenish/yellow cardstock with Daisy Tiles 3D embossing folder by Altenew.  I used Fossilized Amber Distress Ink on the center of each daisy to make it pop.

I used Scribble Posies Background and Outline dies my Memory Box and adhered them on top of the embossed cardstock.

The sentiment is from Happy Year Around die set by Technique Tuesday.






                                                                          

                        



                                    









I'm also joining in with the Try a Sketch on Tuesday Challenge #694.

Spring Chicken

I decided to finally play along with Splitcoast Stampers.  I've been neglecting their sketches, so I'm playing catchup.  This is SC1110.



The paper I used is from a 6x6 paper pad by Carta Bella called Sunflower Summer.  It had the little chickens that I wanted to use.

The chickens are from a stamp set by Simon Hurley called Spring Chicken.  The sentiment is also.















Shell-ebrating

 Here's another take on Freshly Made Sketches FMS #732.


The background paper is from a 6x6 paper pad by Reminisce called Hello Sunshine.

The sand dollar, conch shell and moon shell are all dies from Cottage Cutz.

The sentiment is from a Pink & Main stamp set called Shell-ebrate.

Breakfast Time

Can you believe it's Friday already??  We are more than halfway through this month of April.

And it was so hot yesterday, up to 80 degrees and today it was close to it.

Anyway, this card is for FMS #732.


The paper I used is from Coffee Shop by Newton's Nook.

The coffee pot, coffee cup, spoon and toaster with bread are all part of a die set by Cottage Cutz called Coffee Pot & Toaster.

The sentiment is from a stamp set by Honey Bee Stamps called Life's Sweet Moments.

Ovals and Foliage

 Here's another Mother's Day card that I made using TGIF Challenge TGIFC #572.


For this card I used paper from Coffee Shop by Carta Bella.

The ovals are from Cottage Cutz: Nested Scallop Ovals.

The little leaves are from Alex Syberia: Classic Foliage Set.

Sentiment: For The Ladies by Waffle Flower.

The butterflies and the flight loop are from an old Jolee's Boutique dimensional sticker set called Colorful Butterflies.

Happy Spring

 Happy Spring! Happy Tuesday!

The beautiful yellow tulips on this card makes one want to take a sniff to smell the aroma of spring.

It all came together using a sketch by TSOT #693.

I think it might also qualify for Double Trouble Challenge #214 because of the butterflies and the 3-2-1 recipe.


This card was made with:

Spring Vibes Paper Pad by Echo Park
Layered Tulips Die by Waffle Flower
Little Etched Butterflies by Paper Rose
Sentiment from Crocus Stamp Set by Waffle Flower
