Amy's FAVE

Amy Mattingly uses the Cat Silhouettes and the Dogs Silhouettes die set in a spectacular way.  She creates her silhouettes in a rainbow of colors for a bright, fun card. Those bright colors against the black panel makes for a bold contrast!

A little floral paradise!

Amy's FAVE

Kristi H.'s Halloween card caught Amy's eye.  With the spooky purple background peeking out her windows, Krist adds the little ghost and owl from the retired Boo Hoo stamp set.  For her third window, she adds the sweet, little Jack-o-lantern from the Newton's Perfect Pumpkin stamp set. Those playful polka dots are from the Halloween Meows paper pad, and they pull all the colors of Kristi's card.  For her sentiment, she pulls the Happy Halloween from the Spooky Roundabout stamp set.  Fabulously done!

Claire's FAVE

Vicki's use of the pastel papers from the Birthday Woofs paper pad with the two ice cream cones from the Summer Scoops stamp and coordinating die set was a fabulous idea. The pale yellow ice cream looks so delicious, especially with the added sprinkles using the Celebrations Embellishment Mix.  She also uses the heart from the Furr-ever Friends die set and the postage-edged die from the Framework die set to complete this scrumptious card!

Crystal's FAVE

Becca's combination of the lime green paw print paper and the pink polka dotted paper caught Crystal's eye.  Both papers are from the A Cat's Life paper pad.  Becca continues the fun by turning the card and adding circular elements with images from the Cat Treats stamp set. Don't you just love the little donut and ice cream cone?!  Wonderfully done!

Danni's FAVE

Jennifer K. caught Danni's eye with her use of the lime green!  Jennifer finds the perfect color of green ink to create her background using the Holiday Foliage stencil. She continues the fun by adding striped paper from the Canine Christmas paper pad. Instead of stamped images, Jennifer carefully cuts out her canine images from the paper.  Such a clever idea!  She then pulls the sentiment from the Puppy Present stamp set.  Such a bright, festive card!

Debbie's FAVE

Danielle's use of purple and orange caught Deb's eye. Danielle pulls the orange seashore paper from the Summertime paper pad, and then uses the Confetti hot foil plate with purple foil.  For her stitched circles she uses the Slimline Frames & Portholes die set.  Love it!  She adds a trio of very scrumptious-looking drinks from the Cocktail Mixer stamp and coordinating die set.  The overall effect is "Let's celebrate! 

Thank you for playing!

Today I'm sharing some more inspiration for our current challenge! 

Amy Tollner uses these delightful cheeseburgers from the Buns Out stamp and coordinating die set and places them on the picnic table (retiring Hardwood stencil) complete with a red gingham table cloth (Gingham stencil). She adds her punny sentiment on a stitched circle using the Slimline Frames & Portholes die set. A fabulous way to use the challenge sketch!

Eeek! Claire Lamb creates this delightful green & black Halloween card using images from the Franken-Newton stamps and coordinating die set. She adds the perfect sentiment on a scallop-edged heart using the Heart Frames die set. The polka-dotted paper is from A Dog's Life paper pad. Don't you love the added little heart with the stitches! So cute!

For even more Halloween fun, Crystal Minkler's card is filled with pumpkin cuteness! She uses the pumpkin paper from the Halloween Meows paper pad and combines it with the green & yellow striped paper. That cute little feline in her witches hat is from the Newton's Perfect Pumpkin stamp set as are the little Jack-o-lanterns. For her die cut elements, Crystal uses the Frames & Flags and the Circle Frames die set. Happy Meow-oween, indeed!

Danni Bindel is back with more feline fun. She pulls coordinating papers from A Cat's Life paper pad and adds two sweet orange tabbies from the Newton's Antics stamp and the coordinating die set. She adds the sentiment on a stitched circle using the Frames Squared die set. For her postage-edging, she uses the Framework die set. A purr-fect way to wish someone a happy day!

Debbie Owens designs a striking card using the Quatrefoil stencil. She adds colorful succulents (Succulent Garden stamp set) upon a black background for a dramatic touch. She adds her sentiment on a banner using the Frames & Flags die set. A bold, beautiful card!
