Just For Fun® Color Challenge #13

I challenged the design team to use these colors this week...........
Orange and Black mean two things to me...... my high school colors or it must be Halloween. So trying to put these colors together for my project was a challenge. I wanted to keep it simple but elegant.

Soooooo here is my card. I feel this would make a really nice Father's Day card.

Don't forget to see what the rest of the design team has to show. You will be amazed.

Just For Fun's® Color Challenge #12

It's finally friday. This was a very long week at work. So on to some fun, Rita has challenged the design team to use the following colors.


Why don't you join us in this challenge over at the Just For Fun's blog. The images you use do not have to be Just For Fun's, just use these colors. A lucky winner will get $25.00 to go shopping for some new stamps.


This is my card for the week, it is the look of a Log Cabin quilt. I cut strips of colored card stock to match the challenge and decorated with stamped images. What is so nice about this technique is you can make it for any occasion and of course change up the colors

I created my own background paper using this weeks colors of lime green, turquoise and yellow. Stamps used were D3363 French Floral Design, D3355 Lotus Interpretations.



After the background paper was created I then used two different Spellbinders dies - Lg Classic Inverted Scallop Circles and Squares. I used one circle and two squares. Stamp the wording E3139 Sunshire in black ink and stamped D3355 Lotus Interpretations with yellow ink to high light the words. I like using solid stamp images behind words to help the words pop.

Now play along at the Just For Fun Blog and use Mr Linky so we can see your wonderful creations of lime green.....turquoise.....yellow. You don't need to use Just For Fun stamps, however it would be nice if you do have them.


Supplies:

Just For Fun Stamps D3355 Lotus Interpretations, D3363 French Floral Design, E3139 Sunshine

Ink Pads: Turquoise, Adirondack Brights; Sunshire Yellow and Citrus

Assessories: Spellbinders dies; S4-194 Lg Classic Inverted Scallop Circles, S4-196 Lg Classic Inverted Scallop Squares,

Just For Fun® Color Challenge #9

This week our leader Sherry challenged us to use red, blue and cream. These colors worked well for me because I'm a red, white and blue fan. And if there are stars, that just makes me even happier. You will notice my card does not have any stars, but that's ok I enjoyed using the flowers.


One of our newest design team members Rita Ybarra is showcasing her card this week. Welcome Rita to the team. But don't stop there, visit all the members of the Just For Fun's design team.

Just For Fun's® color challenge #8

Yes, I'm a day late, please don't hate me. I think you will agree the wait was worth it.


Broni challenged the design team to use the above colors. Two are my favorites orange and blue. Why you ask......the Florida Gators. My hero Tim Tebow just got drafted in the first round to the Denver Broncos. Congrats Tim.



And another winner for last weeks 25% discount is Sylvia from Little Treasures. Happy shopping.



So here it is, no I did not use the Florida Gators mascot, but I did use a Florida sunset. I really like this stamp image and I have used it often in sending cards and teaching classes. If traveling to Florida for your vacation, enjoy the hot summer sun.

I colored the sunset image with my Copic markers. Too many to list so here is a picture

Supplies:

stamps: Just For Fun H1614 Sunset with Palms, A2835 Vacation

Accessories: Martha Stewart border punch, ribbons
