Two Cards

Hello blog friends.  I came home today made dinner then went to my craft area and made two cards for a couple challenges.  A new challenge for me is The Playdate Cafe.  Julie has a great color challenge to inspire you.  I decided to make a Christmas card since I still needed to make a few more.  Here is my take on the challenge.  I decided to combine it with the sketch challenge over at Card Patterns.











Cardstock:: Bazzil ~White
Patterened Paper:: Basic Grey~Figgy Pudding
Embossing Folder:: Cuttlebug
Vintage Image:: from my book
Ribbon:: Target
Button::
Boarder Punch:: Fiskars
Twine:: Archivers

For my second card tonight I played over at SPCC for the color challenge and combined it with the sketch at 2 Sketches 4 U  .  I really love combining color challenges with sketch challenges.  I don't think I would
be able to get them done otherwise.  So here is my take on the two.



I decided to flip this one as well.  I just put the circle on the other side.
Cardstock:: Archivers~Craft  / Blue~ Bazzil
Patterened Paper::  Daisy D's
Paper Doily::
Chipboard Image:: K and Company
Ribbon:: JoAnn

Thanks so much everyone for stopping by.  I enjoy seeing what you all create as well.  I will visit you if you leave me a comment.  I get so much inspiration and great ideas from all my blog friends.  I am awaiting the 12 inches of snow from a blizzard we have coming throught.  Thunder snow!  Woohoo.  :)
Good night,
Heather
