WWC 310 - MARSHA'S CHALLENGE: ALL ABOUT OCCASIONS

 HELLO AGAIN!

My card uses two techniques:-   Using blends on Black and White dsp (True Love), and the Love it - Chop it technique.

  

First I colored my black and white dsp with various blends.  Then using the Love it - Chop it technique completed my card.   There was enough dsp to make 2 cards.  I am entering this one into the "All about Occasions Challenge this week.

WWC 307 - HEIDI'S CHALLENGE: ANYTHING GOES WITH A FEMININE TWIST

 Hi Everyone!

February is such a blah month - still cold and rainy here!    We had a sunny day on Tuesday and it was a good opportunity to take the Christmas lights down on our patio.    I had a surprise when looking at my plants to see how they were doing.   Have a look -

I kept these Primroses over, but never expected to see them survive.    How cheery they are and hopefully it will be Spring soon.

My card this week is for Valentine's Day.

It was my first time using the Arrange a Wreath Builder Dies and they worked beautifully for a Valentine Card.    I combined the Foil sheets with the dsp.    My camera did not capture the lovely colors together, but hopefully this will give you some ideas for your cards.
