CR84FN with OWH Gel-a-tins Challenge

 OK, I've been falling behind posting these fun challenges...here's one for CR84FN 39 Color Challenge to use the following:

...and combine it with a Gel-a-tins Operation Write Home Challenge to create a Fall Themed card using this cute sketch:

I think I overdue it with the Clean and Simple when making cards for OWH so the card can be mailed more easily...I find it's hard to fit the card into the envelope if I get too carried away... I know there's a balance there somewhere!

So many great challenges out there right now!  What a busy time in Blog Land...oh, to be able to play all day long!

The stamp is from Skipping Stones Design Heartsong.

OWH Case - Color Throwdown 160

This is for two challenges, one is for Color Throwdown #160 to use the following colors:

This is also for a challenge at Stars & Stamps Birthday Bash to case a card from another designer.  Stars & Stamps is a blog for Operation Write Home and they are celebrating the whole month of September.

You mean the world to me...

 

 I've wanted to mix the sentiment from Skipping Stones Design's Victorian Summer with the old world globe from Stampin' Up The Open Sea since I saw the new sets...and now I'm mixing Skipping Stones Design SSD 93  with the OWH (Operation Write Home) Birthday Bash at Stars and Stamps for a call to use something round on your card.

Here's the sketch...

And here's another card with a few less layers with a color challenge to use Kraft, Red, and Blue or Black from Stars and Stamps Birthday Bash Color Challenge.

CR84FN with a Sketch for you to try...

The sketch is from the September monthly Sketch For You To Try.

Sending you smiles-PDCC and OWH

Ok, this is the first card I made for this challenge at The Play Date Cafe Challenge 97.  Sorry for the lengthy post...I went a little crazy with the Black and White with a splash of red!

The door image is from Scroll Works and the wreath is from Skipping Stones Design.
The sketch for the first card was also inspired by Operation Write Home Stars & Stamps Birthday Bash Challenge-Day 2.  For those of you who are not familiar with OWH, it is an organization dedicated to making homemade cards and shipping them to service men and women so they can send them home to their loved ones.



And this card reminded me of the cupcake tower in the inspiration photo.

And I couldn't resist using the black and white for the shaggy dog and the fire hydrant for the splash of red!

So tell me, which is your favorite?

Tweet Birthday - CR84FN and OWH

I made this card with two challenges in mind...the colors came from CR84FN #37.

And the sketch inspirations came from Operation Write Home Stars & Stamps Birthday Bash Challenge-Day 2.  For those of you who are not familiar with OWH, it is an organization dedicated to making homemade cards and shipping them to service men and women so they can send them home to their loved ones.
