Hexagons for TSSC270

Monday's here already, the weekend went fast!  It's time for another Monday Lunchtime Sketch Challenge.  Mary Jo has another fun sketch for us this week, take a look.



I worked with the new Six-Sided Sampler over the weekend, so I used it for today's sketch challenge card.



Along with using hexagons lately, I have also been trying to do more masculine cards, so this card reflects that.  I used two of the new In Colors, Baked Brown Sugar and Pistachio Pudding.  Other products used for this card are the Honeycomb EF and Crumb Cake Taffeta ribbon. 



Here's a closer look at the focal point of the card.  The Whisper White has a pattern of hexagons stamped in Pistachio Pudding.  I just free hand stamped since I have the clear mount set and can see where I am placing the images.  The last hexagon is stamped on a separate piece of Whisper White in Baked Brown Sugar with the greeting in Pistachio Pudding.  I punched this hexagon out and adhered it with a dimensional.  This card definitely has a more masculine feel from the colors and patterns.  I have another hexagon card to share tomorrow, so please stop back!

    Great masculine card, I am still not on the hexagon wagon, lol. Not sure what I am waiting for. Great job on the sketch this week as always. Thanks for being a part of my TSSC team!

Let's get ready for Halloween!

Image
I don't know about you, but I love little treats and decorations for Halloween.  I am already planning out some party ideas that I thought would be fun to share! I've been busy as you can see!  It all started with the thought of doing a banner and I just kept going and going! Each piece of the banner has different stamps and die cuts from the Howl-o-ween Treat bundle and was way more fun to create than I anticipated!  The panels are each 4" x 6" with the banner end hand cut.  I am actually working on a tutorial to release next week with the instructions for the banner and the treats so you can make your own!  UPDATE: YOU CAN FIND THE TUTORIAL HERE! Now let's check out all the treats.  I wanted a variety so there would be something for everyone's taste. I am well known for my chocolate chip cookies, so a cookie envelope was the first idea to come to mind.  They are 3 1/2" x 3 1/2" and are just the right size for a cookie!  The envelope punch board mad...

A Cupcake Birthday and BLOG CANDY!

Image
Today is the second day of Preview Week for the Create with Connie and Mary Summer Collection 2014!  And I am super excited because it's my turn to offer BLOG CANDY!!  First, let me show you my card for today.  And yes...it's another birthday card! Isn't this just too cute!!  Do you recognize this card at all?  Well, I used a Create with Connie and Mary Thursday Challenge card that I made two weeks ago as my inspiration.  I just loved the banners so much from that card and thought they would be even cuter with this little cupcake. I changed up the colors and stamps but kept the design the same. The first part of the design was the cupcake and sentiment.  I stamped the cupcake pieces and punched them out to adhere to the card.  The sentiment was stamped next to it on the Whisper White. With the bottom of the card in place, the banners were easier to arrange.  I alternated my colors, Baked Brown Sugar, Coastal Cabana, and Strawberry Slush....
