Trading Card...Love

Happy Saturday to you!  Hope you have a little sunshine to brighten your day today.
As part of Papertrey's 7 year anniversary celebration they are having challenges.  Today's challenge was to make 3" by 4" trading cards.  They will slide in the page portecters of the new pocket scrapbooking trend.  I don't do a lot of scrapbooking right now so mine could also be used on a card front.  I also wanted to incorporate the Color/ Sketch Challenge that is going on too. The first photo will show the Color/Sketch cards and the second will show my project. Thanks for dropping by, Sentimentally Sue.

Cool Leaves

Good evening.  Another "7 Under 17 Minute" card.  I also used one of the Color/Sketch Challenge combos too. I started with the kraft cardstock and maked off a circle at the top. Rubbed aroung the edge with Aqua Mist ink to give a shadow and then I stamped the Lovely Leaves in Hawian Shores, New Leaf and Ripe Avacodo ink in the masked area. Lifted the mask and stamped one mote leaf in New Leaf ink and one in Aqua Mist ink. Stamped greeting and wrapped with linen thread. Quick and easy one layer card. First photo will show the color and sketch cards from Nicole Heady's blog and the last photo will show my project. Thanks for stopping by, Sentimentally Sue.




Sketched Circles

This is my go to set for stamps.  Sketched Shapes.  Simple but it gives so much impact.  I am going to enter this in 2 of Papertrey Inks challenges that they are running to celebrate 7 great years in business.  If you come to my blog at all on a regular basis you will know that they are also my go to company for stamps, dies, ink and card stock.  The first challenge is to grab 7 items or less and create a card in less than 17 minutes.  The other challenge is to you a sketch and color palette that was given to us to create a project.  The first photo will show the sketch/color challenge cards and the second photo is my 10 minute card project. Thank you for stopping by. Come again! Sentimentally Sue.



Rainbow Thanks

Again I want to thank you guys for even trying to read my posts.  This Blogger thing is really bugging me and I need to find a fix for it.  Incase you hadn't read earlier blogger will not let me correct my posts. So here is another card for the Papertrey 7th Anniversary Color/Sketch challenge. The first photo will be the color/sketch cards that I used and the last photo will be my card. If you go to Nicole Heady's blog "Capture the Moment" you can download a set of the cards for yourself.  I think these will be great reference tools when we need a boost or idea to start us off on a new project. 
Hope you drop by again, Sentimentally Sue.



PTI Color/Sketch Challenge

Hi!  So I took a stap at another color/ sketch challenge.  My goal is to at least do the seven cards with the options provided.  I try to challenge my self by just grabbing one color card and one sketch card and trying to make it happen.  If you notice a lot of typos in my posts it is because blogger will not let me go back and fix them right now.  So everything is as it is typed. Now can all see my skill level or lack there of. The picture will include the color card and sketch card that I used for the project.
Thanks for stopping by, Sentimentally Sue.



Seven Supplies, Under 17 Minutes...

No problem.  Hello again!  So this card had a time challenge on it.  My seven supplies were the 5 inks, Sketched Shapes stamp set and PTI white card stock. I also wated to make it for the Color/Sketch Challenge going on at Nicole's Blog too. I guess for this is was to keep it simple.  I might have to try the time limit with the rest of the cards I make for the Day 1 Color/Sketch Challenge.
Included in the photo was the color card and sketch card.  Thanks for stopping by, Sentimentally Sue.


Ssooo...I messed up.

I was thinking that the PTI 7th aniversary digital images challenge ended today.  As I was gone all day yesterday I got up this AM and started playing with all the images.  Well after I mades 5 cards I went to the site to load things and realized the challenge closed at 7 AM.  So I will just share the cards with you for ideas.  I used the sketches that they at PTI had shared ealier in the week.
Hello by the way!




I will enter the first card in the Papertrey Ink "7 Under 17 Minutes" challenge.
