Three Clouds

Happy Wednesday, lovely people!

The clouds were cut by hand and freestyle. I didn't use a pattern, so each cloud is unique - just like the real deal!

I also embossed the patterned paper with swirls to add a little extra texture.

Have you made your own embellishment lately? If so, what was it? Do you enjoy making your own or do you leave it to others?

Clear It Out Challenge #11 - Sympathy

Clear It Out Challenges is all about clearing out your stash, hence, the name :)

Our challenge is sympathy and you must use dark papers from your stash. Sympathy cards may seem difficult, but they are actually quite simple.

With sympathy, you don't have to be over the top and you can keep everything CAS. Of course, if you need to add some bling (like me), there is nothing wrong with doing so.

Digi Darla is our wonderful sponsor and I was able to use one of their digis for this creation. It's actually a poinsettia, but I figured it would work, especially since I sparkled it up with glitter.

The style of this card can be used for any kind of sympathy, too.

Have you made a sympathy card before? What did you decide was the best look?

If you haven't, definitely join us at Clear It Out Challenges!

Cupcake 197: It's In The Eyelets

Another wonderful challenge is offered at Cupcake Craft Challenges this week. It's all about eyelets! This creation has a monochromatic color scheme. Isn't lovely how emerald & sage go so well together?

What colors have you used that didn't initially seem like they would fit together, but once you combined them, they turned out splendidly?

Chipboard was covered by emerald glitter before I added eyelets & hemp twine. The flower was made by me, too, & punched leaves complete this CAS creation.
