Heart 2 Heart Ribbon Challenge

Tracy — Mon, 03 May 2010 01:46:37 +0000

I’m getting in under the gun again on the deadline but I’ve been having problems getting my picture transferred over to my computer. I need a new card reader I guess! Grr …

Anyway, this weeks Heart 2 Heart Challenge was a ribbon challenge. The challenge was to use at least 2 different ribbons on your card.

I managed to use 3. In my card I used ribbon has my background “paper”. Then I added a little piece of green ribbon behind the clear CTMH button. The paper flower is also CTMH and the stamped image is from the CTMH Treasures set!

Enjoy!

Heart 2 Heart Sketch Challenge

This week the Challenge over at H2H is Let’s Get Sketchy….

I followed it generally pretty close!

My official entry is this one:

The only thing about it that’s not CTMH is the kraft card base.
CTMH Cranberry CS
CTMH Cranberry Grosgrain Ribbon
CTMH Cupcake Sprinkles Stamp Set
CTMH Red Sparkles
CTMH Patterned Paper (very old, and very retired)

But I was on a roll and was really liking the monochromatic look of this card so kept making different versions of the same card:

Enjoy!

Heart 2 Heart Challenge

Tracy — Mon, 12 Apr 2010 01:47:53 +0000

Hi everyone … it’s been awhile, a long while, since I posted artwork!

But I came across this new CTMH Blog yesterday and was inspired to make a card! I have a lot of stuff to actually post, I just don’t have pictures of it all yet! Oops! So, I’ll start here.

This new blog is called Heart 2 Heart Challenges. You should definitely check it out!

This is my submission for the current challenge (just getting in under the 7pm PST/10pm EST deadline buzzer).

I made the background piece out of Chocolate and did the faux croc leather technique. I also used the CTMH stamp set Treasures and CTMH bling. The other colors are Sunflower and Sweet Leaf – the only non-CTMH piece is the wide ribbon!

Enjoy!

Pink Flower Card

I know Amanda, I missed a week! So sorry! I posted 2 tonight though, so hopefully that makes up for you!

I promise to do better in the future!

This is the 2nd card I made for Mom for her Birthday. She loves pink! It worked!

Enjoy!

Flower Pot Pocket Card

Tracy — Mon, 31 Aug 2009 03:49:54 +0000

I am on permanent “commission” with my Dad to make 3 cards a year for him to give my Mom (Valentine’s Day, Birthday and Anniversary). Yesterday was Mom’s birthday and all of us spent the day in the Tri-Cities going to the Benton Franklin County Fair and Rodeo. More on the rodeo in a later post!

I saw this card on the Split Coast Stampers site and thought it was a good card to make for Dad. The tutorial for it is really easy and located here.

I used the CTMH Bella papers and colored paper flowers. In fact, everything on this card is CTMH, down to the rub ons on the front of the pot!

Enjoy!

For My Friend

Tracy — Mon, 24 Aug 2009 04:58:04 +0000

This isn’t the card that I was going to post earlier in the week. I was going to finish that card this week and never did, and now I’m not happy with it and am starting over. This card was made from a kit of stuff that I got from somewhere … not sure where … But it’s all pink, and I love pink!

Enjoy!

That’s Amore Thank You

Tracy — Mon, 10 Aug 2009 05:25:58 +0000

Amanda – I have 1 hour and 38 minutes before this week is over, so I’ve held my bargain so far! (PS – My week goes from Monday-Sunday).

I actually MADE this card TODAY! And it came fairly easy to boot! Crazy.

I used the That’s Amore paper pack from CTMH and the stamps are CTMH as well!

Enjoy!

Thanks a Million!

Here’s a card that I made in May! Just a simple Thank You card!

Amanda – 4 for 4!

Enjoy!

On vacation!

Well, I arrived in Waikiki yesterday around Noon-ish. I’ve just been killing time since then. I found the Condo I’m staying at, unpacked, found a grocery store (whoa, can you say expensive!!!) and made some dinner and chilled.

I was in bed early, and therefore, woke up at about 5:45am this morning. Ugh! LOL Oh well.

It rained off and on yesterday afternoon. This picture was taken just a few minutes ago off my lanai! Plans for today … track down the scrapbook store (it doesn’t op until 11) do a little shopping, and walk down to the beach! My friends come in later tonight.

I did finally make a card! It’s similar to one that I posted in the early days of my blog. One of our farmer’s was digging up their spuds this week and we had made plans to go gleen his field when he was done (there are tons of potatoes left on top of the dirt when they are done harvesting – and as long as the farmer doesn’t care, you can go pick them up). Well, he called to tell us he was digging and to send a truck out and he’d just fill up the truck for us! It was pretty cool – they just moved the combine boom right over the bed of the truck and dropped a load for us!!! So, we of course needed a Thank You card.

It was pretty easy and straight forward.

Hope everyone has a great week!!! I will!
