I'm a little late with these challenges, but I guess better late than never. The first one is for SCS Friday's Limited Supplies challenge 202. Basically use red and hearts. Nothing too fancy but it meets the requirements.All the red is SU! Riding Hood Red which has to be a favorite of mine. I'm not sure why but I'm not really a red person. However I have used this red on most of my Christmas cards and I just keep coming back for more. Pink Pirouette cuttlebugged hearts and Riding Hood Red taffeta ribbon(see what I mean?). I also used this for Tuesday's Card Sketch Challenge 210.

This one is for Patter's HHN09 challenge. I chose to do a rolodex type display so I can leave it out on my desk and have easy access to it. The first picture is of the back with the following scriptures, Psalms 145:21, 99:3, 103:1. I used my label maker with different size fonts to print the word HOLY then dabbed them with ranger's alcohol ink to cover up the white tape background. The buttons were given to me from a friend. Some are vintage, some aren't but I have A LOT of them so I thought I should start using them.

This is the front of my rolodex card. I love the adhesive felt flourishes and used them in different colors for the front and back. Prima flowers with a fire rhinestone brad to give it a little sparkle, and more buttons. HOLY is done with those alpha stickers from Julie's RAK. The paper is from K&Company. I can't remember the name of it but I love it. Flourishes, flocking,distressing and script all in my favorite shades of antique. It just doesn't get any better. I'm trying not to hoard it but I've used it on projects that I'm keeping for myself, so I'll always have some around.


And last but not least...actually this was the first challenge I completed last week. CC200 was pumpkin pie, garden green and brilliant blue. This is definately not my favorite color combo but when I saw them together I thought I could make it work for a boy card. SU!'s All Wrapped Up is retired but it's my "go to" set for little boys. There's also a gold fish and an accessories set that you can use to fill the jar with candies or bugs, etc. Definately boy stuff.
Sorry for the long post today, but I wanted to get all these up before I started on this week's challenges. Have a great Monday!
