Challenge: Easy as 1, 2, 3

Through the Canadian Crafters' group on Facebook I found a fun new challenge site: Seriously Creative Challenges. This site has monthly challenges and for September we are to use 1 ribbon, 2 embellishments, and 3 patterned papers.


I am a self-declared paper hoarder, so I thought this would be a good opportunity to use some of the beautiful DSP I bought two months ago! I rarely use more than one patterned paper at a time so this definitely was a challenge for me!! My mother wanted me to make a card for a friend of her's who is in the hospital. She loves flowers and purple, so I thought the Pocketful of Posies (which is my absolute favourite paper right now) would be perfect. Thankfully she's recovering quickly :)

Challenge: PPA #105 & SUO #24 Get Well Cards

My mojo sure has returned! I am having a great time playing with one of my newest stamp sets "I {Heart} Hearts". Although it's not new to the Stampin' Up! line, it's new to me and I {Heart} it. I created the card below to be entered into two different challenges - Pals Paper Arts' current colour challenge is using the new in-colours Island Indigo and Lucky Limeade along with Daffodil Delight - a sweet combination, especially for summer.



This will be my first time entering a card at Pals Paper Arts as well as the Stampin' Up! Only Challenge blog. This week at SUO the challenge is to create a Get Well card - something that is always a good idea to have in one's card stash. I'd been wanting to use the stamp "You're in my thoughts; you're in my heart" with "I {Heart} Hearts" since I got it, so thought this would  be a great opportunity to do it. Hope you like it!
