First challenge: The clean and simple August challenge at Hero Arts using the sketch seen at bottom right. My card is clean and simple and follows the sketch, too. There are always great cards in the Flickr group at Hero Arts...play along if you can, everyone is so welcoming and friendly over there!
Second challenge: The CASology Challenge for Week #7 using the cue word "Green." I am so happy that I have been able to play along with every challenge so far...I am LOVING this challenge site! There is so much inspiration each week if you like clean and simple designs.
Third Challenge: The Minty Fresh Challenge in the Moxie Fab World; there are some really cool, minty cards over there, you should definitely check it out!
I also think it fits the Focal Point Challenge in the Moxie Fab World so I will enter it there, too. (I think it will be clear what the focal point of my card is when you see it!) That's the fourth challenge.
So, my card involved mint green card stock, black ink, green distress ink, three stamps, one gem, and some masking. I used all Hero Arts stamps...my favorite!
Stamps Used:
I am so excited that yesterday was a particularly crafty day...I was able to make several cards for several different challenges and hope to post them in the next day or two. (My kids were in on the act, too!) We are still trying to squeak out as much fun in this summer vacation as we can before school resumes!
Thanks for stopping by!

I am not looking forward to nagging my son to do his homework again either, Judy, and I know how terribly busy you get with home-schooling your four kids, so keep making those summer memories! Love this wonderful minty card! Hugs! :)
ReplyDeleteThanks, Barb! Actually I don't homeschool my kids, but I do work in a school so when they go back to school I go back to work, too! Any way you slice it, there is lots of homework to be done! I hope you are enjoying the rest of your summer, too!
Deletethis is a very lovely card
