Merry Monday #121

This is the first time I am participating in a Merry Monday challenge. However, I am a big fan of the Merry Monday challenges as I love Christmas so much. I got a free pinecone and greenery cut file from Miss Kate Cuttables and this seemed the perfect challenge for it. Don't have any plaid ribbon so I stamped my own plaid for the border panel using Off Beat Background stamps from Waltzingmouse Stamps.

Have a Sweet Day

This week's theme at AAA Cards is, "Enjoy Summer Foods".
I got the free ice-cream popsicle cut file from Miss Kate Cuttables and was so happy to be able to use it on this card.

PTI Make It Monday #175 (Third card)

I am really enjoying this week's MIM technique. There are just so many options...unfortunately, many of PTI's first dies were on a single base so they cannot be used for this technique. Nevertheless, I have many dies that I can use. Next, I want to use some word dies.
My third card uses Beautiful Blooms 1 and Happiness in Bloom Leaves dies and Happiness in Bloom stamp set.

PTI Make It Monday #175 (Second card)

My second MIM card uses a Spellbinders circle die and 'Wreath for all Seasons' stamps.

PTI Make It Monday #175

This week on PTI's MIM your project must use a creative border created with non-border dies.
I have really enjoyed this week's technique and still have so many ideas for more cards.

My first card uses 'Enjoy the Ride' stamps and matching die.

I used the inspiration from 3 challenges to help put my card together.

The sketch came from Retro Sketches.
The challenge at Addicted to CAS is to use GOLD on your project.
The technique is watercolour and that is this week's challenge at AAA Cards.

I stamped with Distress Inks, then I spritzed with water and painted around the stamped images. The sentiment and parts of the leaves were embossed with gold.

Shine Bright

Here is my card for this week's challenge at The Cutting Edge. Can't believe I did not use any stamps on this card.
