What a beautiful summer we've been so fortunate to have! Our weather's held for the past few weeks in the mid-20's giving us just the perfect summer.
Today I'm starting off the week with a bit of a twist. I created a card using the Paper Pals Art CAS sketch designed by Margaret Moody.
While choosing my card stock and designer series paper, I decided to go with a Mossey Meadow print from the paper stack and use the paper colour for a monochromatic scheme.
I made my card and I really liked it but then, and here's the twist, I decided to remake the card using the colour challenge from Just Add Ink, and I did it not once, but twice!
Here's the Sketch and Colour Challenge:
Here Are My Cards:
For my Monochromatic card, I used a Whisper White card base with a layer of Mossey Meadow and then a second layer of Whisper White card stock. I used 31/2" tags made with the Scallop Tag Topper Punch instead of panels for my card.
I also used the Scalloped Tag Topper punch to create a panel measuring 4 1/2" x 1 3/4". I stamped this with leaves from the the Blooming with Hope stamp set, before adding the "You Make Me Happy" tag from the Perfect Pennants stamp set. This was cut out with the Banner's Framelits.
I stamped 9 floral images from the Petite Petals stamp set and cut them out with the co-ordinating Petals punch and adhered them to the front and inside of the card. Some basic rhinestones finished off the card.
Here are the three cards together.
Hope you enjoyed this challenge and will visit both Paper Pals and Just Add Ink to see all the other great cards by the designers and participants.

Here is my card for the Just Add Ink colour challenge. It features Blackberry Bliss, Calypso Coral and Mossey Meadow. |
Each of the cards has a slightly different set up for the panel in terms of the positioning of the border stamps and the flowers. |

Way to use the those tags for the sketch challenge! I love the flowers too. Thanks for joining us at the Pals Paper Arts this week!
Penny, it looks like you've been having a heap of fun in your craft space! What a cute way to use tags; very creative. Just by switching around the colours, you've created two quite different cards for our challenge - and they're lovely. Thanks for joining in the fun at Just Add Ink this week!
Sweet and clever use of colour Penny, your tag layers are a great idea too!
Thanks for joining us at Just Add Ink.
Great way to use the tags! Thanks for sharing one at PPA!
Fun! Love the tags!! Thanks for playing along with us at Pals Paper Arts challenge!!
Interesting and creative use of tags for your color panels... would not have considered that. And the flowers are exquisite. Thanks for sharing all three cards with the PPA sketch challenge in mind!!
What a clever take on the sketch! And such pretty flowers. Thanks for sharing with us at Pals Paper Arts!
Thanks Kelly for your comment. I wasn't sure if the tags would work as layers but they seemed to.
Thank you everyone for your wonderful comments on my cards. I sure appreciate it. This was simply a great sketch colour challenge to participate in.
Oh you have been busy. I like all your cards. Great way to use the tags and the sketch. Chantell JAI
