 Fall to Layout 146 and Colour Q Challenge #90

I must have been on a roll today because I was able to meet the requirements for two sketch challenges:  the Fall to Layout 146 on the Clean and Simple Blog and the Colour Q Challenge #90 on the Colour Q Blog.  This does not usually happen for me!!  But today it worked out for some reason.  I did make a change to the colour challenge though.  I don't have Poppy Parade or Brilliant Blue so I used Riding Hood Red and Pacific Point instead.  Hope that is OK. :)

Supplies:  

Stamps:  Word Play, A to Z, Dot Dot Dot

Paper:  Whisper White, Riding Hood Red, Tempting Turquoise, Pacific Point, Bashful Blue

Ink:  Pacific Point, Riding Hood Red, Tempting Turquoise, Markers: Riding Hood Red, Tempting Turquoise, Pacific Point

Accessories:  Small Star Punch, Large Star Punch,  Dimensionals, Paper Piercer, Mat Pack

As I said, I was on a roll so I made another card using the FTL146.  As you can see it has a completely different look to it.  I embossed the bold flower stamp from Fabulous Florets in white embossing powder on Paisley Petals DSP (coming soon in the 2011-12 IB&C).

Supplies:

Stamps:  Engraved Greetings (retired), Fabulous Florets

Paper:  Whisper White, Tangerine Tango, Paisley Petals DSP

Ink:  VersaMark, Pear Pizzaz Marker, Tangerine Tango Marker

Accessories:  Dimensionals

On a final note, here are a couple of cards that were sent to me from some of my Stampin' Up customers.  Thanks so much.  They are gorgeous!!

To a Great Friend ~ From the Heart

 I made this card a loooong time ago.  I got the idea of placing a stamped image inside the punched our circles from somewhere!?!? Can't figure out from which blog I got it from!  I do remember the card I looked at had stars instead of butterflies.

Supplies:

Stamps:  Great Friend, Watercolor Trio (sentiment)

Paper:  Whisper White, Certainly Celery, Certainly Celery DSP, Crumb Cake

Ink:  Soft Suede, Certainly Celery

Accessories:  Hemp Twine, 1-1/4" Circle Punch. Square Lattice Embossing Folder, 

I am currently having contest with my Stampin' Up! customers.  One of the options they have to enter the draw is to send me a hand stamped card that they have made.  Here are a few cards that were sent to me.....I mean dropped off in my mailbox and emailed since Canada is  currently in the midst of a postal strike.  Aren't they lovely!
