Hard Challenge

Hello all! Thought I would share with you real quick what I made for the challenge on Heart 2 Heart this week. The challenge, Clean And Simple. Well, this challenge for me was NOT simple! Ha. I am usually one to just pile in the detail when it comes to making cards, so when I had to make it simple, lets just say it took me a bit to get it together.



I used the surf's up paper packet for this weeks challenge. This paper is one of my favorites because I absolutely love going to the beach. The paper yo-yo I used is from the Surf's up assortment and I added a touch of sparkle by using the Bitty Sparkles. I used Versa Mark to stamp my saying and then sponged ink over it with CTMH lagoon and chocolate ink.

Make sure you check out the Heart 2 Heart blog this week to see what others have created.

Tags

This weeks challenge over at Heart 2 Heart is tags. I love, love LOVE making cards, so here is my card with a tag.



I just love how this tag fits into the little brown paper bag. It was a perfect embellishment for a masculine card. I am still hooked on the Chantilly paper packet! It is so versatile that I can make girly cards or masculine cards with it.


I simply stamped our friends name on the tag, so that if his wife chooses, she can reuse the tag! You should now head over to H2H and see what other creative things are being crafted!

LOVE

Our blog challenge this week is "Love is in the air." I had already started working on a Valentines Day card, so I decided to finish it and share it with all of you.


I am smitten with the CTMH glitter paper, so I just had to use it on this card! Another favorite of mine are the pink glitter gems.



I used the Die-Cut cards that are available in the Spring/Summer 2013 catalog. These cards are so fun to work with because they add a touch of beauty to any card.

Hope you will head over to Heart 2 Heart and enjoy all the love in the air.

Just for fun, I created these cute little valentine bags to give away to close friends.


I used the Who's your Valentine stamp set and created little tags for each treat bag. I filled them with chocolate kisses of course and tied them shut with white bakers twine.

H2H Challenge- Home Decor

Our first challenge for February is creating Home Decor. I decided to do up the 12x12 display tray that is available in the Spring/Summer 2013 catalog.
 
 

I wanted to create something that I would be able to display all year. I used the Chantilly paper packet in this challenge as well. Since the paper is double sided, it gives you many options to work with. I am in LOVE with burlap, so I used that as a base and worked from there.

I really enjoyed this challenge:) Head on over to H2H and see what others have created!
