Three Cards for Three Challenges

Here's my card entry for the monthly "Our Daily Bread Design" (ODBD) Challenge. The challenge was to use 3 patterns on the same card. If we reach 50 entries ODBD will generously pay shipping costs for 2 large boxes. The deadline is February 4th.




This is for the MWT "Floral Fantasy" Challenge and it uses a sentiment from the new OWH Hero Arts stamps set called Year Round Sentiments. As is the case with all these cards, the papers, ribbons and embellishments are all from a long collected stash that I a determined to use up completely.


Lastly, this one is my interpretation of this week's OWH Sketch Challenge #104. Though I typically try to  stay as close to the original sketch as possible, this time I moved and altered stuff but I think it's still obviously based on the sketch.




Happy Crafting Everyone!

  1. 3 great cards - I like your interpretation of the sketch - my sketches always take a different path usually.

    thanks for everything you do for OWH.

  2. I just knew you would nail the patterned paper challenge. You are the the queen of that!

    Your sketch card is terrific. Your bow placement is a great idea. My card may get a "redo." Moving it over was smart.

  5. Paula, your cards are all terrific! I like the way you modified the sketch 104 card. I think we can stray a bit and still make a sketch card. :) I really, really like your Floral Fantasy card. I have been pondering about a card using that saying, and I think your card is fabulous. I love the big U and the flower and button combo. Thanks for playing in our Midweek Throwdown challenge at Operation Write Home Stars & Stamps!

  7. I came here for the Sketch 104 card - but they are all great cards! On the sketch card, I love the soft pink-green-brown colors and patterns, and the raffia bow is a nice natural touch. My favorite though is the bright "missing you" card - such fun patterns, shapes, and ribbon.

  8. You've been a busy crafter to make three cards in one evening! They're all so great! I love the torn panels on the sketch challenge card and the A E I O Missing U is just the cutest card ever!

  12. "Completely use up" your stash? Wow! If I could only live to be that old...

    Beautiful cards, all three. I love the placement of the raffia bow in the last card. It's a nice twist on the sketch.

  16. These are all wonderful! I love your take on the sketch and the pop of raspberry color in the squares. This card looks very "alive" (does that make sense?)
