Kraft, Blue, and White...

Woo Hoo - I am so excited because today is Colour Create Day!!! For the last challenge, I was so under-the-weather that I just didn't really get to participate.

For this challenge, Chris has chosen the most lovely colour combo:

Isn't that great! I love those soft colours together! And we have a fabulous sponsor for this challenge:

The Rubber Room is offering a gift certificate as the prize for this challenge. Head over to Colour Create to get the details.

On to my cards:

I have been making lots of Valentines lately, but not using the traditional red and pink colours. For this card, I used the new Tiny Treats: Valentine set from Papertrey Ink. That set contains the cutest little images and sentiments! Stay Tuned because I am working on my kids Valentines for school and I am using that same set for those! I will post those in a couple of weeks.

Anyway, here is a close-up of the little boat image. I sewed the little ruffle so that the thread would look like waves - well that was my intent anyway - ha ha! I am going to enter this card into the Just Us Girls Challenge as well, where the challenge is to use sewing on your project.

Up next, a tribute to one of my favorite beverages... Coffee! Well, I guess this card could apply to tea or latte's or espresso....

I had all kinds of ideas for this card - and it started out completely differently! Then I found this little sentiment on the Cricut Graphically Speaking cartridge, and I just had to use it!

I stamped the little circles with the Papertrey Ink Background Basics Retro set. I inked all of the edges with PTI Dark Chocolate ink.

If you get a chance, please head on over to all of the other design team members blogs. They all have some beautiful creations to share with you!
