OWH Mid Week Throw Down - Stars

This week's challenge is to make a card with stars.  Here is mine:

Love the contrast between the refined gold paper and ribbon with the rustic graft.  Sizzix embossing folder, stash ribbon.  This one is not for OWH.  Christmas card time is past, it is now time for Valentine's!!!

OWH Sketch Challenge #196 looks like this:

 

Continuing on the Mid Week Throw Down for pink and green cards, here is my version:

DCWV Baby Girl Stack, Fiskars sentiment, Offray grosgrain ribbon, We R Memory Keepers corner chomper.  The glittery butterflies are completely covered in a glaze, and I made sure that I didn't cut into the sparkles.  The paper passed that sweater test. 

Mid Week Throw Down Pink & Green

The Mid Week Throw Down challenge at OWH is to make a card with pink and green. 

Papers from DCWV The Carnival Stack.  Chevron embossing folder, Fiskars sentiment, stash metals. 

OWH Sketch #195

 The papers are from a Mary Engelbreit 6x6 paper pack.  My friend Bonnie is a huge fan, and this will be heading her way.  Ovals cut with Spellbinders, paper strip punched with American Crafts Knock Outs.  Satin ribbon from my stash. 

ODBD Challenge - Sentiment Focused Cards

Our Daily Bread Designs issues a monthly challenge to Operation write Home cardmakers.  If 50 cardmakers link up their cards made for their challenge, they will pay the shipping for 2 boxes of cards destined for our heroes!

This month's challenge is to create cards with a sentiment focus. 

Unfortunately, this card can't be used for OWH for two reasons.  First and most important, the lower panel did not pass the glitter sweater test after I cut into it.  It was fine as a whole sheet, but cutting it released bits of glitter.  I think I got it all, but I would rather err on the side of caution.  Secondly, Sandy HATES this sentiment!!!  LOL!

Paper from DCWV Lemon Flower matstack, silver paper from stash, sentiment from TPC Studios, hot fix crystals from Design by Dawn.  OWH Sketch B-22. 

OWH Mid Week Throw Down

The Mid Week Throw Down this week is to make a card that is winter-themed, but not Christmas.  That way, the cards can be used for other holidays, love, thank you, etc.

I experimented with a number of sentiments for the front, but nothing  I tried was quite right, so I added the sentiment to the inside. 

Silver paper and DCWV Winter Magic patterned paper dry embossed with Cuttlebug Snowflake folder, Offray ribbon.
