Full Circle With A

Heart 2 Heart Challenge
My Heart 2 Heart Color Challenge: 2012
Use Black & White with 1 other color.
In 2012 I used Twilight with Black & White for my tag collection.
In  those days we made our fancy tags and shapes with the Cricut.
Today in 2023 we have Thin Cuts to make our fancy shapes and tags.
 I used  Black & White with my favorite new color Periwinkle 
As we play Full Circle at Heart 2 Heart, it is with sadness that we say 
goodbye to this fun and awesome challenge site. I will miss your 
challenges and all the creative designers who have inspired us
through the years. Blessing to all, Jody

A Color Challenge

At Color My Heart
This week's colors were not fitting into my working on Christmas cards. Then I was looking at our Christmas tree with some bright colored ornaments. So I grabbed my ornament stamp set and made some brightly colored ornaments for my card. Thanks Color My Heart for this unusual color combination at Christmas time.

Take the challenge and play at Color My Heart.

It's Tic Tac Toe Time

At Color My Heart
I've been working on my Christmas cards. It was hard to decide which 
Tic Tac Toe colors to use.
I finally decided on the top row: Harbor, Shortbread, and Scarlet.
I really like to add gold or silver to my cards but that will be for
another day. I did add the Shortbread colored liquid pearls
 on the berries. Liquid pearls are a fun addition to holiday cards.


Come play Tic Tac Toe with us at Color My Heart.

A Triple Play

At Color My Heart
This was quite a challenge. First I had to go into my retired stacks
 to find my Carolina CS. My Sangria CS was still handy and
 Flamingo is with my current cardstocks. I used the water brush 
with the ink pads to color the scarf and hat on my polar bear. 
It's always fun to go back with retired colors. 
Carolina is one of my favorites. Thanks Color My Heart.

Come Triple Play with us at Color My Heart.

We've Moved


From the West Coast to the East Coast
We've Moved Announcement
Front of card


Inside card
One of my long time friends moved from San Bernardino, CA
 down to the Salton Sea area.  Recently we had been talking 
about her moving back to San Bernardino to be closed to her son. 
So recently she called me up to give me her new address and 
I was so excited that she was back. But to my huge surprise
 her son packed her up and moved the whole family to
 Georgia. She was calling me to say she wanted 
me to make her "We've Moved" announcements.
