Welcome to our Create with Connie and Mary Saturday blog hop!

Our theme this week features all blue cards!

And that is just what I made, a set of all blue cards!

Look at these lovely cards –

I used a 6″ x 6″ piece of the Boho Indigo Product Medley Designer Series Paper and strategically cut it to create 4 cards! I call it a 6″ x 6″ One Sheet Wonder. I have made these before here.

I started with a Misty Moonlight card base for all the cards.

Next, I used a piece of Very Vanilla , 3 1/4″ x 4 1/2″ to place all the pieces on.

Each sentiment from Happy Thoughts is on a strip of retiring card stock, Seaside Spray, 1″ x 3″, stamped in Misty Moonlight.

For a little added *flair*, I used the Well Suited Twine Combo Pack filling in the off space and adding a bow to each card.

Pretty nice set of blue cards, wouldn’t you agree?

Go forward to check out Debbie Henderson, and back to Cindy Elam. I know they’ll have some great projects to inspire us!

Welcome to our Thursday Create with Connie and Mary sketch challenge!

Here is our newest color challenge –

I pulled out all the card stock colors for this card and funny how I pulled these exact pieces alone!

I thought they needed a little something. I added some simple stamping from the Vine Design stamp set in the same colors.

I stamped the sentiment from the soon to retire, So Sentimental using the Stamparatus and Stampin’ Write Markers to get the two colors! I love being able to do that!

Speaking of retiring, the list came out yesterday. Get your must haves before they are gone!

Luckily, the Vine Design stamp set and Well Suited Twine Combo Pack will be around until June!

Welcome to our Thursday Create with Connie and Mary sketch challenge!

Here is our newest color challenge –

Fun colors this week with lots of great inspirations from our Design Team! Here is my take using the colors –

Pretty, pretty. Great option for a masculine thank you card too!

I pulled out the three colors for the sketch. Oddly enough, I pulled this Old Olive, already cut with banner bottom, the Bumblebee rectangle and a Night of Navy circle.

I decided to add a little something something with the Vine Design stamp set in the same colors as the card stock.

For the sentiment, I wanted to fill the circle. I found a nice sentiment from the So Sentimental stamp set and pulled out the Stamparatus and the Stampin’ Write Markers to color it in two colors. The Stamparatus is great for this technique.

I finished this off with Well Suited Twine Combo, using the Night of Navy.
