April 2025: TOL Color Challenge

Good Afternoon!
I am a bit late again with my project but I'm here now to share that a new Color Challenge has started at The Outlawz Challenges. You can check it out HERE

We have a gorgeous pallet to work with this month with an optional twist of adding a floral focal point!
I love the color combo and since I always need birthday cards for ladies at work it was perfect.

• Design Paper from The Paper Studio (Watercolor)
• Dies from PoppyStamps (Stitched Bloom Trio) & Creative Craft Products (Wiry Banners & Borders)

CIU Challenge 326 Colors of Spring

A new Cut it Up Challenge has started. You can find the challenge HERE.

For these challenges, a die-cut is anything made with a manual or an electronic die-cutting machine. (Spellbinders, Cricut, MFT dies, Silhouette, etc.). Store bought die-cuts are also acceptable. Please note that handheld punches and/or paper-piecing DOES NOT count as a die-cut

Today I am sharing a piece that I made to display on my desk at work. I’ve been trying to make one for each season and we are here we have Spring.

These do take a bit of time to make as I must cut the die multiple times to get all the pieces I need. But I love the way they turn out and have given several as gifts.

Card size: 8 x 8
Supplies

• Cardstock from Stampin Up!
• Design Paper from PhotoPlay (Snail Mail)
• Die from Gina Marie Designs (Leaf Quilt)
• Embossing folder from Crafters Companions (Celtic Frame)
• Frame was purchased from Amazon

Thanks for stopping and remember to stop by the challenge to check out all the DT projects and play along!
