365 Challenge Day #48









Today we are just to score the card, make patterns on it. I have 2 cards and they are very different from each other......


Card 1, uses white cardstock that I scored a basket pattern (can't seem to figure out how to get great pics with white cards-LOL!), used MStewart butterfly punch, Michaels beads, red satin ribbon and Close To My Heart Sentiment stamp set. Misc hat pin and beads. I love how this turned out (there are small butterflies on the patterned paper in watermelon and red, thus the color scheme...LOL! bright and cheery, green is my fave color!)

Card 2 I saw somewhere years ago and just loved the colors of it. This is my take on it. I sanded the tan textured c/s to give it a linen feel. The purple c/s is scored and sanded to show off the pattern (must use a white core c/s to get this effect!). Stamped with Sweet Flowers another CTMH set, Friend from Say it in Style set, tags cut from my cricut (love this machine!)

Thank you to those of you that wished me well on my back. I am finally feeling better but am moving slowly and cautiously to avoid reinjury. Hopefully in a few more days, will be 100%.

Have a great friday and enjoy the spring! Softball season officially starts this weekend, our first game is a doubleheader! Long weekend ahead------

Beautiful cards Kelly. I love them both but to me the second would be my choice, don't know why maybe because it's white and red. . . oh bugger, I love them both never mind which I like better. I took another look and decided that if I had to choose I choose both lol

these each have such a different style but I love them both - I have to admit that the way you sanded the lavender card probably makes it my favorite for its uniqueness. But they are both so pretty!
