Combined challenges

I wanted to share my card that I did for a few challenges :) I kind of like mixing challenges together.

Here is my card that I created using the PaperMakeup Stamps that I had won during an earlier Copic Color Challenge. I used the Hope Awareness Fairy stamp.



I used a combination of E33, E35 and E37 for the hair. R20 - for the dress and accented the dress and shoes with YG06. I used a combination of R35 and RV34 for ribbon. BG10 for the wings and B12 for the bird.

1) I did this card for the Copic color challenge #37 - which was to use colors - YG06 (Yellowish Green), R20 (Blush), E33 (Sand).

Here is their color chart,



2) This was also for the Pals Paper Arts challenge - PPA14 - which was to use Pink in the card (For breast Cancer Awareness Month)

3) I used the Our Creative Corner Thursday Sketch - SASSC38 for this card.



Supplies:
Stamp - Papermakeup Stamps - Hope Awareness Fairy
Paper - Generic Pink DP, PTI White CS
Ink - Memento Black, Copics
Other - PTI Hibiscus Burst Ribbon, Nestabilities

PTI October Blog Hop


It is time again for a PTI Blog Hop. The blog hop this time was to show our best upcoming Holiday plans for cards, gifts etc...

I have tried to get a head start on Holiday cards this year...:) It is still a slow progress. I was very inspired by the Take a Note released this month by PTI - from Mish to create these cute note pads. I thought those would make very good holiday gifts. So, that is what I am planning to do this year, do these notepads as gifts and also do some of the no layer Holiday cards showcased by Nichole.



Here is one of the notepad that I did as a gift,

Supplies:
Stamp - PTI Take a Note, PTI Peaceful Poinsettia, PTI Signature Christmas, PTI Vintage Labels
Paper - PTI White, Kraft and New Leaf CS. PTI Bitty Dots and Bitty Boxes DP

Other - Circle Punches, PTI Raspberry Fizz Ribbon, Photo Corner Punch
