Talk about being oppositional! Two cards to post, one for winter and one for summer.
No doubt in my mind though that in REAL TIME, we are definitely experiencing summer.
So maybe a winter card will help bring on a cool down...
I was inspired by the Sketch Sunday on 365 Cards, Day 146, Super Sketchy Sunday
The following challenges worked their magic in inspiring too!
Paper Pretties - no markers - I used colored pencils and OMS
Picture Perfect Creations - color challenge (night of navy, crumb cake, whisper white)
Christmas Stampin' All Year Long - favorite color, I like vintage looks,
so crumb cake is used a lot!
Craft Your Passion - Christmas in July
Designed 2 Delight - free snowman digi for participating in monthly progressive challenge
Designed 2 Delight Designers Challenge - Christmas in July
Paper Cutz Challenge - Anything goes
Polly Craft Challenge - Ho-Ho-Ho Christmas
Totally Gorjuss - Punch or die (the oval cutout with a nestie)
Cupcake Craft Challenge - Vintage Glitter
Party Time Tuesdays - Anything goes
And I was motivated by Pam's challenges this week at 365 cards with the focus on backgrounds.
This is my first attempt at making a rolled fabric flower. Probably need to practice more. But I think I'll wait till the blister on my ring finger heals from using hot glue to keep it together... :(
Challenges entered in:
365 Cards, Day 147, Monday Background Challenge - 1/2 polka dots, 1/2 solid
Paper Craft Star - Anything goes
Crafty Ann's Challenge - Emboss
Stamp Something - embellish, oh yeah, that blistering fabric flower!

Keep your cool! SAM

oooohhhh, both are so LOVELY! I LOVE, LOVE your coloring on the first...don't think I've tried coloring on colored cardstock but now I definitely want to! And the border on that card? FA-ulous!!! So textural and perfect with the snowman. Now the second card is beautifully simple and that rolled flower is GORG-eous (sorry you got burned putting it together! (I think that why I haven't tried one of those...wasn't sure how to keep it together!) Thanks for the inspiring inspiration and keep'em coming!! (you only have a few weeks until it's back to the grindstone, who know?!?!)
