Timeless Tuesday #211

 

Hi there. :)  This week's Timeless Tuesday is being hosted by Deborah and her challenge is to feature GREEN on our projects.

Here's a birthday tag I made...

The sentiment is from Inside and Out Hello and it's stamped on classic ivory CS.  I just bought the Spellbinders lacey circles (they've been on my list forEVER) and the Farm House patterned paper.  The lacey circle and the die-cut sentiment are both up on foam tape.  I added some sponging around the sentiment with Memento bamboo leaves and the ribbon at the top of the tag is moss green seam binding.  The layout is Deconstructed Sketch #92.

Be sure to stop by the Timeless Tuesday blog for all the details of the challenge and, of course, you can find even more inspiration by hopping around to see what the rest of the FTTC girls have created for you....

Color Throwdown #232

Hi there. I'm back with a card for this week's Color Throwdown.  Here are Joan's fun colors...

I found this really cool layout by Stephane on Pinterest that I just had to CASE.  You can click HERE to see the original card, and here's mine...

I made two cards. The one in the front uses this week's CTD colors. The one in the back is the same except I used Island Indigo.  Stamps and dies are by Verve.  The two butterflies are each up on foam tape and so is the scalloped square.

FTTC209--Glitter and Shine

Hey, that rhymes...FTTC 209, Glitter and Shine.  :)  How are you all doing today?  Hope your week is off to a good start.  We had a nice weekend; went out with some old friends on Friday night, I got the grocery shopping out of the way on Saturday, and then on Sunday got myself to the gym (hubby and I are having a weekly "biggest loser" contest between ourselves....and this week, I won...yayyy!), we watched the Daytona 500, and I had some good crafting and cooking time during the race.  One of the cards I made is this one for this week's Timeless Tuesday...

The sentiment is from Inside and Out Happy and it's stamped on classic ivory CS.  The main image is popped up on foam tape and I added some turquoise organza roses. For the glitter and shine challenge, I added adhesive finesse rhinestones as well as some Stickles under the word "happy" and in the centers of the flowers in the DP.  The layout is Deconstructed Sketch #90.

FTTC208 Red

Hi everyone! It's my turn to host the Timeless Tuesday and this week's challenge is to use red on your card/project. Easy peasy, right?

For my card I used Old Fashioned Florals, Perfectly Pierced Victorian Ovals, and Perfectly Pierced Classic Frames.  The DP is Bo Bunny Serenity, the card base is Classic Ivory CS, and the sentiment is stamped in white craft ink and heat embossed with white embossing powder.  The oval, red classic frame, and white square panels are all up on separate layers of foam tape.  The main image is colored with Copic markers from the Poppy and Leaf Green Collections.  Some red ric rac ribbon and Kaiser adhesive pearls finish it all off. The layout is Deconstructed Sketch #89.

CTD229 Kitties

Hi there! It's Color Throwdown time and Wanda is our hostess this week.  Here's the sweet combo she picked for us:

Here's my card:

I used my Penny Black "Stuck On You" clear set.  The layout is Deconstructed Sketch #88 and I totally took inspiration from Tobi Crawford's card (you can see it by clicking HERE....sweet, right?!) with the square card with rounded corners, twine, and pearl accents.  I didn't have Blushing Bride CS so I replaced it with some Pink Pirouette CS and patterned paper. The circle with the cats and the pink scallop circle are both up on separate layers of foam tape. The green polka dot paper is actually Christmas paper (lol!, hey, if you got it, use it!); MME Merry Christmas Winter Wonderland.  I colored the adhesive pearls with a G21 Copic.  The Penny Black image is colored with 0, E41, E42, E43, R20, R22, G21, G28, and G40 Copics.

FTTC207 Love You

Good morning, everyone. This week's Timeless Tuesday Challenge from Maki is to use hearts on our projects.  After I saw THIS adorable card that my friend Dawn made, I just had to CASE the layout. Here's my card:

I changed it up a bit to make it my own with an aqua color scheme and I used two hearts since I didn't have a big enough heart die like she used on her card.  Stamps are Flourishes' "Inside and Out You" and the card base is Flourishes' Classic White CS.

CTD228 Crafted with Love

Hi all. It's Color Throwdown time and Tammy is our hostess this week. She picked a really pretty color combo for us this week. Check it out:

Here's what I came up with...

The rose stamp is an oldie of mine but one of my favorites to color; it's by Inkadinkadoo (stamp #90438). The sentiments are from Flourishes' Stitched For You.  Yes, I did add a little green to the leaves in my image (G40 Copic), but the rest of the image is strictly reds, pinks, and grays (0, W1, W3, R20, R22, R24, R29).  The sentiments were cut with SU's word window punch and MFT's file tab die.  The background was embossed with my swiss dots embossing folder, and some crochet ivory lace and silver pearls finish it all off. Oh, and the main image is up on foam tape.

FTTC206 A sketch!

Yayyy! Ally has a sketch challenge for this week's Timeless Tuesday over on the Flourishes Blog.  I love sketches!  Here's what I came up with...

I used Flourishes' Sentimental Favorites, My Mind's Eye Sweetest Thing--Lavender, some heart dies, an adhesive pearl, my swiss dots embossing folder, some baby pink seam binding, and the card base is classic white CS.  The hearts and the large DP panel are all up on foam tape.

FTTC205 Vintage

Hi everyone!  It's Timeless Tuesday time and Amanda is our hostess this week. She's challenging us to make a vintage card.  Here's what I came up with...

I used Inside and Outside You from Flourishes, papers from MME Sweetest Thing-Lavender, and the card base is classic ivory CS.  For the vintage theme, I added some maching stitching, ivory crochet lace ribbon, a button, and sponged the edges of the heart with ink.  I think that makes it vintage, right?  I hope!  :)  Oh, and the heart is up on foam tape.

CTD226 With Love

Hi there! I'm hosting this week's challenge on the Color Throwdown Blog.  Here are the colors I picked for us...

I love purple and green together so I hope you'll find them fun for this week's challenge.  Here's the card I came up with...

Pretty straight-forward and CAS card.  The hearts are up on foam tape and so is the largest embossed panel that's against the card base.

FTTC204 Moon & Back

Hi there and happy Tuesday.  Hope your weekend was good and your work week is off to a good start.  Our weekend was busy with my husband's work holiday party (yeah, they decided to have it in January when people had more "time" for it), paying bills, cleaning....and my youngest got the stomach bug that's going around. Boo!  Thankfully, she's better now though. I hate when kids are sick.  :(  Anywhoooooo, it's Timeless Tuesday time so let me get onto card talk here.  ;)

Cindy is our hostess this week and she's challenging us to make cards with a circle, a fishtail flag, and pearls. Here's what I came up with...

I used one of the newest sets from Flourishes; it's called Just My Type.  Papers are MME Ooh La La For Her. The main panel was stamped on Classic Ivory with Versafine Onyx Black, and the panel is up on foam tape.  I sewed around all the patterned papers and added light pink pearl swirls.
