CTD 607 - Punny Farm

I have a fun, interactive card for you this week featuring stamps and dies from two of my favorite companies, both near and dear to my heart: SugarPea Designs & The Cat's Pajamas

Whatever The Weather
Barn To Be Wild
Peek-A-Boo Frames

Each of the farm animals is watercolored in this week's Color Throwdown Challenge colors - yellow, purple and blue. Have you heard the poem, The Purple Cow? I remember reading it in our ancient set of Childcraft: The How & Why Library waaay back in my younger years and there was an accompanying picture of a purple cow. Growing up on a dairy farm in WI, I thought it was the funniest thing I'd ever seen. Anywho, that's where the inspiration for my card started. Oh my gosh, I just searched and found it! Anyone else remember this?

Childcraft, I love these books | Purple cow, Poetry for kids, Cow

The first view is all buttoned up with sentiments from SugarPea's Barn To Be Wild stamped on interactive Peek-A-Boo Frames from TCP. The cloud and sun die cuts are from SugarPea, but I'm sorry to say they may not be available any longer.

This second view shows the windows opened revealing the adorable farm crew from SugarPea's Barn To Be Wild.

Finally, a peek at all of the elements before I put everything together. I love these punny sentiments and know just the special recipient who shares my pun-loving sense of humor. 🖤

And here's more inspiration for you to enjoy from the CTD team!

Color Throwdown #576

It's time for this week's Color Throwdown Challenge with yet another yummy color combo - navy, teal and mustard. Take a look at the challenge graphic below and you'll see what I'm talking about.

I used a combination of the SugarPea Designs Hexagon dies to feature my sentiment and additional embellishing layers. The sentiment is from Totally Random Sayings Vol. 3 and the diagonal striped stamp from Painted Stripes both designed by Julie Ebersole, available at Ellen Hutson.

Check out some awesome inspiration below...promise, you're gonna love it!

CTD 575

Welcome to this week's Color Throwdown - gold, green, kraft and white. Notice something missing here? Yep, forgot kraft (smacking forehead)...I'll try and sneak it in somewhere this week! I again used a sentiment die from Simon Says Stamp and the hearts from Essentials by Ellen. The hexagons are from SugarPea Designs, and I love the extra interest they add in.

oh hello, paris

Welcome to this week's Color Throwdown Challenge. This week's colors lend themselves perfectly to a watercolored rainbow look and that's just what I've done with SugarPea Designs ParisScape die. I've paired the watercolored Paris skyline with my favorite SugarPea word die, Hello.

Love You

This week's Color Throwdown palette is just perfect for that last minute Valentine you need to make - gray, fuchsia and black.

Once again, my card features a combination of a sentiment from SugarPea Designs and Home & Hearth dies from Ellen Hutson. After all, they were just lying there on my stamping table. I've also used a piece of patterned paper from Ellen Hutson, Modern Graphics, designed by the one and only, Julie Ebersole.

Color Throwdown 517 + SPD Mix It Up Sketch

Hello, friends!

I've got a double challenge card for you today featuring the sketch from the October SugarPea Designs Mix It Up Challenge in combination with this week's Color Throwdown Challenge palette of orange, red, turquoise and kraft as seen in the graphics above.

I chose a few of my favorite SugarPea products for my card, including Moose, Hello, Postage Stamp and the rolling hill dies in Card Front Element Builder.

After coloring Moose with Copics and fussy cutting him, I tucked him within my hills of snow and added the Hello die cut and a stamped sentiment from Easily A'Moose'd.
