Welcome to the new challenge at Get Creative!!! This is a Challenge Blog with this week's challenge theme - PINK Monochromatic with the fabulous sponsor being QKR Stampede!!!!!

For those who know me, this is a real challenge as I am most definitely not a "pink" person - 




RECIPE and SUPPLIES:
  • 5 x 7 inch using coral Recollection card stock and scraps for the background
  • image was colored with Whisper Stroke Markers, Prisma Colored Pencils with gel pen accents with rounded corners and chalked around the edges and background
  • lace doily was from a goodie package from Edwina Brown
  • buttons were added for the center of the little pink flowers which were also from Edwina Brown
  • feathers were added for him to shake his "tail feathers"
  • sentiment, "Side by Side or Far apart Friends are always in your heart" had been previous freebie from  Create with TLC  with rounded corners and was chalked around the edges, mounted on matching paper from the front with Martha Stewart Eyelet Border punch - love when paper is double-sided as you can use the same paper and get a different look

Home Sweet Home - New Home New Baby along with New Challenge at Crafty Hazelnut's Patterned Paper Challenge Blog

It's a new month which means a new challenge at Crafty Hazelnut's Patterned Paper Challenge Blog????? Here's a challenge blog you are going to want to enter as she offers a once a month challenge the first of every month AND you can enter as many times you would want!!!!!!! 

Jean, not only had a new baby BUT in the process, they had moved to a new home. This is a card I had made for her along with taking some homemade rolls to wish her happiness in her new home. My grandmother had always taken a loaf of bread to wish people good luck and happiness in their new residence and to ensure they would always have "dough" . . . thus, I carry on the tradition. Here's my card I had made using a Create with TLC image, Home Sweet Home:


RECIPE and SUPPLIES:
  • size A2 card using aqua Recollection cardstock with a beautiful cloud paper for my background 
  • Home Sweet Home was colored using Whisper Strokes Markers, Prisma Colored Pencils, chalk, fussy cut around the edges with Stickles and gel pen accents
  • sentiment, "May love and happiness move in with you", had been a previous freebie from Create with TLC is chalked around the edges with rounded corners
  • sentiments, "Congratulations on your new home", had been hand-written by me with chalking around the sentiment to match my background
