Busy ... but fun!

This month is already off to a busy start.  We has a ton of snow, or at least a few feet of snow over the past week, so Handsome Hubby worked really long hours.  I taught a couple of classes, and came up with some new projects, got caught up on birthday cards.  Worked on my quilts and started some baby booties for a gift.

Challenge #137 - Feb 15 - Recipe Challenge

Here are a few ideas using the Creative Belli Challenge RECIPE The ingredients are: 1 Ribbon 2 kinds of Designer Paper worked into the design of your project 3 Colors 4 Gems or Pearl;s Hope you will also post to the Creative Belli Challenge Have a fantastic Day! ~Markey
The image on the above is made using retired papers, remember the purpose of the Creative Belli Challenge is to use accessories that we may have been saving for a special day... so they are not forgotten. I cut the flower shapes out of the Designer Series Paper. You only need two, but I did use three Designer Series Papers . I used the current product of Basic Pearls and Rhinestones. My colors are Kiwi Kiss, Baja Breeze, Crumb Cake, Black and Early Espresso- though you only need three colors I simply laid sticky Strip across the bottom and then folded the Crumb Cake Seam Binding Ribbon across the sticky strip. Very simple and fun card to make The card below is made in My Digital Studio, remember you are able to down load a free trial version during February and use it for 30 days free! For this card I used Pear Pizzazz Ribbon Knot for my one Ribbon. For my two Designer Series Papers, the first background paper, which has the bird on it, as part of the imagery. I used the flower punch and filled it with my second Designer Series Paper and created layers with it. There is also a strip of Designer Series Paper across the bottom to make the border stamp stand out more. My three colors are Pear Pizzazz, Marina Mist, and Soft Suede. for my 4+ jewels I used the Basic Pearls and Rhinestones and re-sized them to fit the watch faces on the umbrella stamp from Rue Des Fleurs Set. I love this set and also have it in wood Mount (WM)
