After a month off for a holiday break, The Flower Challenge is back with new challenges for 2024!</p><p>This month is a fun one - Add a Heart! I love making valentines, and love Valentine's Day. Probably because of all of the fun chocolate! But my favorite color is also pink, so there's that!</p><p>Today I am sharing a card made with Spellbinders Sealed Blooms. I also used the retired Postal Cover Panel from Reverse Confetti. My sentiment is from Paper Smooches.</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjjbVYQlm_4uwEgJjfYgggTp1_1OyQww8zAfyP8zmjGT3Fs6Su2kGXFxREOKKoX6JLwR8GSpzoQNeMVN8vl34yVukLir4tSIlml7uGmHgu3N4W2W3XC1TMDho9b9xsfe24sL864_Y59DVo0qRhFgmsL777dqIKMzuABj2rRly1DWg-2g7FYRdYY5bSgvtsk/s2400/PhotoRoom_20240204_063038.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2400" data-original-width="2230" height="478" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjjbVYQlm_4uwEgJjfYgggTp1_1OyQww8zAfyP8zmjGT3Fs6Su2kGXFxREOKKoX6JLwR8GSpzoQNeMVN8vl34yVukLir4tSIlml7uGmHgu3N4W2W3XC1TMDho9b9xsfe24sL864_Y59DVo0qRhFgmsL777dqIKMzuABj2rRly1DWg-2g7FYRdYY5bSgvtsk/w444-h478/PhotoRoom_20240204_063038.jpg" width="444" /></a></div><p>I hope you will join us in the month of February at <a href="https://theflowerchallenge.blogspot.com/2024/02/the-flower-challenge-88-add-heart.html" target="_blank">The Flower Challenge</a> - and welcome our new team member, Vicky, too!</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhttr-VhBEcNIimUAbM85SZoBpd_z4UAw3a8geqqb7RI9UXQli6i0SRgWAddCzDGjVVcDgTyf36XGgaMMNIAbuML0nQhsHExfcw2hgIvC_IcKGtNtV8hkFL_0NCXjyGAWHXQAE0EcDUSkf-l_nvj4oRiIAIyP4GT4idJ2r33s8tzz4M140bw1Dn0vCU-fiC/s640/2024-1%20January%20new%20graphic-001.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="400" data-original-width="640" height="261" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhttr-VhBEcNIimUAbM85SZoBpd_z4UAw3a8geqqb7RI9UXQli6i0SRgWAddCzDGjVVcDgTyf36XGgaMMNIAbuML0nQhsHExfcw2hgIvC_IcKGtNtV8hkFL_0NCXjyGAWHXQAE0EcDUSkf-l_nvj4oRiIAIyP4GT4idJ2r33s8tzz4M140bw1Dn0vCU-fiC/w418-h261/2024-1%20January%20new%20graphic-001.png" width="418" /></a></div><br /><p><br /></p><p><br /></p>Judy Rozemahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04273470004608947862noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7250249658831736534.post-81071530578249048462024-01-31T07:00:00.030-06:002024-01-31T08:10:06.136-06:00Freshly Made Sketches #621<p>Welcome to a new sketch for the week from Freshly Made Sketches!

Dip a piece of acetate into the wet ink, and apply to watercolor cardstock, until you get the look you like. Dry the layers in-between with a heat gun. I use the Ranger Heat It Craft Tool for watercolor work. </p><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgNplLfGysMJ3AhfLseZJn5kJOwLKYCgwFqQhqPTlK_xBiXW7kgtWw246A2kugHaFm94xdu8hBHYdi-03yrcURectG9K2Ti4cXYPLJmkoRShOOH0CpbFrvZhLayKMTm1DYfE0UgrKPhO0y_JlQioW71-N0ZVUQe-99C-vHgbvvDH_A6yDWpGqNt_nCMBBVx/s503/IMG_0944.jpeg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="503" data-original-width="503" height="438" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgNplLfGysMJ3AhfLseZJn5kJOwLKYCgwFqQhqPTlK_xBiXW7kgtWw246A2kugHaFm94xdu8hBHYdi-03yrcURectG9K2Ti4cXYPLJmkoRShOOH0CpbFrvZhLayKMTm1DYfE0UgrKPhO0y_JlQioW71-N0ZVUQe-99C-vHgbvvDH_A6yDWpGqNt_nCMBBVx/w438-h438/IMG_0944.jpeg" width="438" /></a></div><p></p><p>I stamped the snowflake border and sentiment with VersaFine Clair Nocturne, and my MISTI. Watercolor paper can be a bit hard to get a good impression, so it's always nice to be able to stamp again! I added some Ice Blue Rhinestones for bling.

I stamped the main leaf and cut it out, and added a mat of black cardstock. I tied some gold metallic thread around both, and popped it up on a peach coral cardstock - close to the Pantone Color of the Year!<br /><p></p><p><span style="font-family: inherit;">This challenge will end at 3:00 EST time on Monday, January 15, 2024. </span><span style="text-align: center;">Don't miss all of the amazing creations on the <a href="https://freshlymadesketches.blogspot.com/" target="_blank"><span>FMS blog</span></a> to inspire you!</span></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgnIBSIwhLPa84zdAOWS9rJZYlyEkFUmOxpS4idxljHjEeIH_v74TAGY43wBAheA3xTvf_DhEm2qX6fq-BxftsCmsSJlXVEnPsCW1d0FWVjLWtpXFx5Nz_pnozyAAbfFBKqS-zAOWbwHETTpBgcnu5jCGd0qdtZVYlfma8VUh7MRjcSm5SwynlUUHD89DVa/s400/FMS618.jpeg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="400" data-original-width="286" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgnIBSIwhLPa84zdAOWS9rJZYlyEkFUmOxpS4idxljHjEeIH_v74TAGY43wBAheA3xTvf_DhEm2qX6fq-BxftsCmsSJlXVEnPsCW1d0FWVjLWtpXFx5Nz_pnozyAAbfFBKqS-zAOWbwHETTpBgcnu5jCGd0qdtZVYlfma8VUh7MRjcSm5SwynlUUHD89DVa/s320/FMS618.jpeg" width="229" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div>Judy Rozemahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04273470004608947862noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7250249658831736534.post-20437395267028049232024-01-07T06:00:00.034-06:002024-01-07T06:00:00.137-06:00Valentine Iris<p><span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: medium;">Good morning friends!</span></p><p><span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: medium;">I hope you had a wonderful holiday and new year celebration!

I love circles, but had TOO many ideas for what I wanted, and then ended up doing something that I hadn't planned or thought about before at all. Isn't that always what happens?</span></span></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: medium; text-align: left;">Today's card is a combination of products from several different companies. I started with the coffee circles from FSJ (my set from two weeks ago was still on my desk....) using three different colors of DOX inks: Vintage Photo, Gathered Twigs, and Ground Espresso (which I forgot I had, and just ordered this week....). I used a Reverse Confetti cover plate (my favorite) for the embossed lines on top of the circles. The sentiment is from MFT, and the coffee girl from Picket Fence Studios. I kept it pretty CAS this week.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: medium; text-align: left;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiH5g44ByDsNSBpYlu0XXC4JafrmOj0Zcsg9NMNFm3bUbOsG11jQ05H7QteUI6BWYRHGXEjmopAuRowJyyUuait3EaqQamIwhOKGak43_hw8xun0cfRBM9WhsfWcMzDYl8ya27NBLa9pYGKksC1oL70_E1zAG0KlUSVIsHby6qej2piYI1gOYHFw_w65yV3/s1080/IMG_9390.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1080" data-original-width="1080" height="439" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiH5g44ByDsNSBpYlu0XXC4JafrmOj0Zcsg9NMNFm3bUbOsG11jQ05H7QteUI6BWYRHGXEjmopAuRowJyyUuait3EaqQamIwhOKGak43_hw8xun0cfRBM9WhsfWcMzDYl8ya27NBLa9pYGKksC1oL70_E1zAG0KlUSVIsHby6qej2piYI1gOYHFw_w65yV3/w439-h439/IMG_9390.jpg" width="439" /></span></a></div><span style="font-size: medium;"><br /><span style="text-align: left;"><span style="text-align: center;">I hope you will join our sketch challenge this week, and add your creations to our gallery. </span><span style="text-align: center;">This week's challenge will end at 3:00 EST time on Monday, December 4 (whaaat?

The weather was beautiful and it seemed like fall. Today, back at home, we got a couple of inches of snow, and it feels like the Christmas season now! I spent a lot of the day decorating the house and just enjoying finding new places for familiar things. </span></p><p><span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: medium;">Today I am sharing a traditional card that reflects the traditional style of my Christmas decor.

I love being able to combine elements. I started with the colors in mind (see below) - I wanted to use Kitsch Flamingo for my <a href="https://shareasale.com/r.cfm?b=975657&u=1833504&m=70385&urllink=www%2Epapertreyink%2Ecom%2Fstencils%2Fho%2Dho%2Dho%2Dstencil%2Dcollection%2Dset%2Dof%2D2%2F&afftrack=" target="_blank">Ho Ho Ho Stencil</a> from Papertrey Ink, and have a pretty light aqua for the card base. I cut my trees from the Memory Box Pine Tree Grove dies. I love the sentiments in the <a href="https://www.tayloredexpressions.com/all-together-christmas/" target="_blank">TE All Together Christmas</a> and used the "merry & bright" for today's card. That sparkly silver goodness is from <a href="https://www.cutcardstock.com/collections/silver-card-stock/products/silver-glitter-discount-cardstock#" target="_blank">CCS</a>. I had a leftover piece of vellum with printed snowflakes from another project.

font-size: large;">Hello everyone! I am here today with a no fuss, CAS (clean and simple), mailable holiday card! I have a couple of friends who I think would love this style. I love black and kraft together (well, kraft and anything, really!) and I think this turned out super cute. It would be a very easy to mass produce if you wanted to make a lot of cards!</span></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEigxFqHt6ksniQDJpaGSKNd1re9M0ykR5r3D0aD54R8Cr8Y4FayWYhATBBOJa1pKDiE1xOjX3czntk14kcsfE1RtmuIv-IX6Cv2nH6Ez6dCjR8oEZVU6I_Ey6jtMVoK7eFLZUcVJyFH2Wj5Dz0l76IW6dVV7IepsvsUJ5h9UDSf631rfhu3BVAYZeTDfMk/s1080/IMG_8810%202.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: medium;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1080" data-original-width="1080" height="486" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEigxFqHt6ksniQDJpaGSKNd1re9M0ykR5r3D0aD54R8Cr8Y4FayWYhATBBOJa1pKDiE1xOjX3czntk14kcsfE1RtmuIv-IX6Cv2nH6Ez6dCjR8oEZVU6I_Ey6jtMVoK7eFLZUcVJyFH2Wj5Dz0l76IW6dVV7IepsvsUJ5h9UDSf631rfhu3BVAYZeTDfMk/w486-h486/IMG_8810%202.jpg" width="486" /></span></a></div><p><span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: medium;">I used the adorable snowmen and matching sentiment from the Prickley Pear Stamps <a href="https://shrsl.com/4awnm" target="_blank">Zipper Card Christmas Clear Stamp Set</a>.
