Color Dare 245

Little Dreamer

Color My Heart challenge this week is with the Little Dreamer paper pack.

During my endeavor to clean out my CTMH stash of unused items

I ran across this card from Artfully Sent that was never used. The colors in

the Little Dreamer seemed perfect for a cheerful and happy card. 

I used a sample of each paper for the letters and accented

with the flowers from Happy to be Friends.

Be sure to share your creations with Little Dreamer 

this week at Color My Heart.

Everyday Life

In Retirement Land

Heart 2 Heart challenge for Everyday Life got me to thinking. 

Since being retired everyday is like Saturday. No worries about

what time it is or where do I have to be or what do I have to do.

No clocks to rule the day. Everything gets done on my schedule.

Whether it's sipping my favorite drink, lounging in my favorite

chair, or chilling under the umbrella everyday is a Saturday. 

OMG...It's Sunday and I need to get this post up for

Atlantic Hearts.  No worries. I still have time. 

If you missed this sketch at Atlantic Hearts a new one will

be posted tomorrow. Be sure to check it out and come play.

Coming Up Roses

With Live Beautifully 

Heart 2 Heart Challenge "Coming Up Roses" worked

just great with the Color My Heart Live Beautifully

 paper pack for National Scrapbooking Month.

To make a layered rose just stamp the rose 3 or 4

times and cut out different sections of the rose. Edge

each section with a sponge to accent the section. Pop up 

each layered section and add bitty pearls in the center. 

You still have time to play at Heart 2 Heart and Color My Heart

and share your special creations with us.

Heart 2 Heart

Meets Color My Heart

The color challenge at Color My Heart is inspired by the colors of 

 Little Dreamer: Glacier, Juniper, Canary, and Thistle 

The Teeny Tiny challenge at Heart 2 Heart inspired me to

make some inchies. So....what do you do with inchies?

I used them to accent some tags so I can have tags for any occasions.

Play along at Heart 2 Heart and you could become an Addict, a Darling

and/or a Sweetheart. And join the fun at Color My Heart with the Little 

Dreamer color inspirations.

Teeny Tiny

With Little Dreamer

Addicts, Darlings, And Sweethearts play at Heart 2 Heart. You have all month to 

achieve your Addict,Darling. or Sweetheart goal. To my surprise,

I was an Addict. and a Darling and a Sweetheart in the month of April.  

Time to play again. 

For my teeny tiny project, I wanted to make some inchies with the Little

 Dreamer paper pack for the challenge at Between the Folds. 

 Then I added the inchies to a tag so now I'm ready to Tag any Occasion. 

 Come and play at Heart 2 Heart and you could be the next 

Addict, Darling, and or Sweetheart. And... A new Between the Folds

Challenge will come your way on Tuesday.
