MFT Sketch Challenge 369 - Hoot of a Day

This week's sketch challenge looked easy, but I really struggled to come up with a card that I liked and could use for Valentine's Day.  I'll send this one to a young boy in a Facebook group that I belong to. The group supports kids with on-going health issues by sending cards and "happy mail" on a regular basis.

Thanks for stopping by.  I hope you have a hoot of a day!

MFT Color Challenge 85 - Monster Love

I have to say that this month's MFT Stamps Color Challenge was truly a challenge for  me.  I normally wouldn't use the required colors together, and I thought about how to use them for awhile.   But isn't that the point of these challenges?  It's good exercise for me to think outside the box a bit. 

Once I decided to use the cute MFT monster stamps, the card came together easily.  I think it's a fun card, and I will donate it to Christina Hor's Cards for Little Hearts February Heart Month card drive.

Essentials by Ellen January 2018 Mix It Up Challenge with Concord & Ninth

For this month's Essentials by Ellen Mix It Up Challenge, I used the Happy Day stamp and die by Concord & Ninth along with the "it's your day" sentiment stamp from the EBE Wish Big stamp set.  

I used ZIG Clean Color Real Brush markers to color the pretty cake.  I tried to keep the colors soft and light, something I struggle with.   

Thanks for stopping by, and I hope you are having a great day!

MFT Sketch Challenge 367 - Tutu Sweet

After almost a month away from my craft table, I'm back with a card for this week's MFT Sketch Challenge.

This card will be donated to Send A Smile for Kids, a volunteer organization that I support year-round with cards for kids in children's hospitals around the country.

Instead of using a rectangular frame for the main image, I opted for a heart since it's a Valentine's Day card.

Thanks for taking a look!
