I have very few C&9 products & a huge wishlist, so decided I better get an entry made for the May Floral Challenge. Once again I used the Floral Fill-In Patterned Paper with the matching stencils. Such a clever idea!
Yesterday I entered this card into the Freshly Made Sketches challenge via Flickr as I just had minutes until it closed.
Edited to add: I think this card is pretty summery, so will also enter SSS Work It Wednesday.
Thank you for leaving a comment!
ReplyDeleteThat's so funny...I can just see you in the closet! I have to do everything as early as possible, because I'm such a baby about sleep. Your lavender, gray and black card is stunning! Love the watercolor stripes with the flowers stamped on top - so pretty!
ReplyDeletetoo funny, greta! I totally see you in the closet, too! for being last minute both cards are pretty darn fabulous!
ReplyDeleteyour floral in the lilac color is so pretty and love the watercolour wash on the second one. i was typing those last minute papers on a typewriter and what a chore that was using all that "white-out" stuff. when i started out as a library/media specialist i even had to type those card catalog cards - yikes - what a memory!!!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great way to use pattern paper, Greta! The curved edge on the lilac card is eye-catching and the color wash across the floral adds pizazz to the design. Your closet story reminds me of many a late night marathon adventure for me too!
ReplyDeleteHi Greta wow both cards are awesome ,love the colours you have used,well done my friend xx
ReplyDeleteTwo pretties, Greta! My little sister operated on the last-minute schedule, too - she said she worked best under pressure.....Your 2nd card with the repeating design and the plaid is my fave - thanks for sharing it with us at the Simon Says Stamp Wednesday challenge!
ReplyDeleteI'm with you, Greta - last minute many times! Just love both cards but especially the outline flowers with the color wash atop the plaid!!
ReplyDeleteLovely cards with the beautiful flowers! Usually I’m not a last minute person, but at times I am just depends on my mood. Anyways, love the plaid and the pretty colors on your cards, too!
ReplyDeleteYour cards are so lovely. So glad you made the deadline.
ReplyDeleteBetter late than never, Greta! Both of these are so pretty! I love the swoop of your C9 card and the plaid looks fabulous with your little artsy garden!! Hugs, Darnell
ReplyDeleteYou made me laugh with your anecdote about typing in the cupboard - I can relate to that. But about the cards. Love the curved element on your violet card and the watercolour/tartan one just steals my heart. I'm going to try that style - it sooo pretty. TFS
ReplyDeletePressure much! Glad you made it in time for your challenges. Your cards are awesome Greta. I love the first one with it's curved edging and the PP goes perfectly with the background colours on your second one.
ReplyDeleteWell done making the dead line with your ever so pretty card. Fabulous plaid paper on the second card and do so love the layout x
ReplyDeleteBoth cards are lovely Greta. The plaid paper is so sweet and a great layer for your blooming trio. That C&9th fill in paper makes for a fun look too. So smart.
ReplyDeleteSee... and I'm one of those crazy people who like to have everything done waayyyy ahead of time! LOL Both cards are beautiful Greta... the purples on the first card is my fav! :)
