TSOT#156 Lollydoodle Card

Hello. I am back again today with a card I just finished making. I didn't want to miss the Try Stampin' On Tuesday Challenge #156 deadline.
Recipe:
Paper: Lollydoodle, Slate CS, White Daisy CS (CTMH)
Stamps: Girls Rock, Greatest Love (CTMH)
Inks: Blush, Sorbet, Cotton Candy (CTMH), Black (Versa Fine)
Tools: Circle Stax Die (MFT), Scallop Circle Die (Spellbinders), Cricut Art Philosophy, Dots Embossing Folder, Paper-Piercer, Micro-Tip Scissors (CTMH)
Other: Sorbet, Blush, Cotton Candy Brads (retired), Clear Sparkles (CTMH)

I would also like to enter this card into the Fantabulous Cricut FCCB Challenge #199. This week's challenge is All About You: Use Your Favorite Colors. Our new Lollydoodle paper pack is cheerful and makes me happy each time I use it. I don't think I would miss our brads as much, if we could get enamel dots in every color we carry. Until that happens, I guess I will be digging into my hoarded brad stash. 

This card makes me think of my Grandma. Whenever I think of her, I see her sitting at her kitchen table singing some of her favorite hymn's. Amazing Grace and How Great Thou Art were 2 of her very favorites. She loved it when I cross-stitched and made friendship bracelets as a teenager. I think she would have loved that I am now a papercrafter. 

I'm going to enjoy the quiet until the kids come home. They were both home sick most of last week, so this is my first day in a week getting quiet time to myself. Have a great rest of your day!

SSSC187 Chantilly Rocks Card

And yes, I'm back with my 3rd post now. I am loving my new Circle Stax dies. It's so nice when you just want a circle or two, to just pull out the Cuttlebug for a second and put it away.

I liked the sketch from The Sweetest Thing blog so much, I just had to create a second card with it. Yup, two in a row! I am also linking this card up to the H2H Challenge for the week. The challenge is all about what colors make us happy. Well Chantilly colors definitely make me happy. :)
Supplies Used:
Paper: Chantilly, Twilight CS, White Daisy CS (CTMH), Kraft (MFT)
Stamps: Chantilly WOTG, Girls Rock (CTMH)
Inks: Pear, Lagoon, Cotton Candy, Buttercup (CTMH)
Tools: Circle Stax 1 (MFT), Embossing Folder (Cuttlebug), Paper-Piercer, Scissors (CTMH)
Other: Bitty Sparkles (CTMH)

This is a little 4 1/4" x 4 1/4" size card. It will still fit in a regular size envelope and mail with one stamp. Love how bright and cheerful this turned out. Thanks for the inspiration, Sweet Sunday!
