Two Card - Quick Post

 Hello!  A quick post to zip a couple cards off to a couple challenges.

Card #1 ~

This one was Inspired By the "pumpkin rocks" theme at IB #190, but I also wanted to make a cute scene.  I colored it in Copics, free-handing the ground and grass.  (P.S. My little buddies were colored last weekend while camping)  However, it'll be my next card that is entered into the challenge because I'm running out of time for multiple posts!

Card #2 ~

This one was actually Inspired By the sketch this time.  I hope you can see it, because I chose to keep those "ovals" a little discreet.  This card will be entered in IB #190 and TO #198 - Breast Cancer Awareness.

  

Well, Folks, that's it for me today!  I hope you enjoyed yourself, come back and visit again -- I do appreciate YOU!

Supplies:

   Card 1 - SSS Harvest Mouse, PTI Autumn Hills (sentiment), PB Simple Stackers die

   Card 2 - Stamplorations Fierce & Brave, PB Petite Blossoms stencil

Hugs,

Thinking of You

 Hello again!

I made a card for Time Out #172 Breast Cancer Awareness, so wanted to post before it's too late.  I seem to run just at the end of challenges, and it isn't because of lack of effort.  Most of my "creating" time is on weekends, so it seems like I'm always on a push to get cards posted (after my idea marinates for awhile), and this one is no different.  Onto the card then, shall we?

This sweet stamp set was gifted to me and I knew it was a timely blessings.  Then came the challenge over at Time Out, and I knew I had to play.  I have a few other stamp sets from CAS-ual, so I've combined a few.  I first stamped and heat embossed the silver trim piece; stamped the dragonfly and cut the outline die in vellum to place on top, popped it up on foam.  Once that was done, I needed to hide my glue strip (a small piece of  Sookwang, rolled like a tootsie roll on a non-stick mat), so I used the silver gems to cover it and enhance the body.  The sentiment was stamped and heat embossed as well.  Then I decided I needed more of the pink, so I used the same ink and colored my own strip to fit under the silver trim.  A close-up ~

This card is already on its way to a friend, going through this right now.  Thanks for blessing me with the stamp, Lisa!

Oh!  And what about NBUS #19 -- my new stamp/die set!  Man!  And another thought - Pixie's Snippets #389 (for the scrap strips I embossed and colored pink)!

Supplies:

   CAS-Friday:  Everyday Dragonfly (NBUS), Tin Roof (the side strip), Pretty Posies (sentiment)

    My heart and prayers are with anyone and everyone who has to deal with this personally, I can only imagine the intense emotions involved.

Hugs,

TK

Courageous

Hello once again!  I'll be straight forward and get right to why I'm here.  Women fighting Breast Cancer, they are who's courageous!  I really wanted to play along for the fact that this is such a terrific reason to make a card -- to support those going through it and to declare them courageous in the face of something major!  Here's my entry ~

I can't tell you how many boo-boos I made along the way (crafting too late maybe, or possibly too early) but the picture I had in my head actually came to fruition finally!  I'm going to enter this at  Time Out #145 and use the twist.

  

ETA:
