For my card I also incorporated this weeks Clean and Simple Challenge on SCS which this week is to use pink, green and blue on a card. The colors on the Tickled Pink paper were perfect and even better I used up some more scraps! The main flower is fussy cut (3 pieces) and layered. It is hard to tell in the picture but I used my Swiss dots cuttlebug on the white background paper. All supplies are from Close to My Heart except punches (Martha Stewart, SU!) and sentiment (PTI)
For this card I also incorporated the Pile it On Challenge to include some type of pastry on a card. I just had to use my Cricut Home Decor again as I love this cupcake. The paper is Collage Press. Of course I had to scent it with Cupcake Card Scent - oh so yummy!
I am also incorporating the Just Buggin challenge - to use a die cut (I used the Hannah Montana cricut cartridge for these) and alter it (I added some bling to the guitar). Finally, this is for the Scrapping Out Loud Challenge to repeat a motif on your layout. I have repeated both circles (I have some dotted patten paper in there too) and the music notes. Danica had a couple of options for Halloween costumes last year. This was one of them.

I had to use my Cosmo Cricket Earth Love again (I have so much of it - that is another story!). I love this little hedgehog.
I love how this card turned out. Used October Afternoon again and I played with one of my Unity Stamps. Everything just fell together perfectly, must have take less than half an hour to make this, love it when that happens!

For my card I incorporated a few challenges again. First of all, the Practical Scrappers challenge is to use die cuts - I used my Slice for the watering can and the sentiment. Then the Pile it On Challenge is to incorporate punches, I used a border and a butterfly punch. Finally, it fits for the 365 Challenge to use triplets (this case three large butterflies, 3 small butterflies and 3 gems).

For my card I dug into some CTMH stuff and used up some more scraps. All supplies are from CTMH. I also incorporated the 365 Challenge - Tuesday Triplets - to do things in threes.
We are very lucky to be sponsered by My Favorite Things this week. If you have never been to their site you need to go! So many fun goodies! I love this little Halloween stamp set, the tree is my favorite, so fun! Pop on over to Get Sketchy and see what the team did with the stamps. 
Pattern Paper: Bo Bunny
I incorporated a few challenges for this card. I incorporated the Pile it On Challenge - to use punches (I used a border and a circle punch), and the Just Buggin challenge to use the Blackout feature on a cricut cartridge (I used the Holly on Christmas Cheer). The words are cut out with my Slice and then glittered. The circles are glittered and mounted with foam squares.

I pulled out some Amy Butler scraps again and came up with this card. It gave me a chance to use my new Slice Cartridge (Words & Expressions Holiday), and a Cricut cartridge that I don't use enough (Paper Dolls).
Please scroll down to see my new postings, this is going to remain at the top until September 23.
The Color Challenge from Our Creative Corner:
Here is my card. I used the yummy Collage Press Paper again, I so love this set! Collage Press has a challenge, to make a card using Collage Press paper and as a bonus use a stamp. The Bunny and word easter are cut with my Slice. The bunny has been stamped with the Intrinsic Background stamp (CTMH), and then mounted with foam squares. 
Since I still had this paper out (yes my scraproom is a disaster!) I decided to use it again. The bird and snails are fussy cut from the pattern paper. The snails are on foam squares. 
Pattern Paper: Cosmo Cricket
I was stumped for a bit, as I always have a hard time with circles both on cards and layouts. I made it work. All supplies are from Close to My Heart except the baubles.
Pattern Paper: Twitterpated
I wanted to play with my Earth Love by Cosmo Cricket so this is what I came up with. Everything is from Cosmo Cricket except the Stamp (PTI) and Ink (CTMH)
This sketch was perfect not only for the picture but also for the challenge over at Practical Scrappers this week. The challenge is to use felt. Now unfortunately this layout wasn't photographing very well, the colors do match better IRL! I cut strips of felt for the background and I also used my sizzix to cut circles and leaves from felt. To give the leaves a bit more oomph I sewed them down on the paper. I also have some felt ribbon in my stash so I used a bit of it on the edge of the photo. 
Pattern Paper: MAMBI
I pulled out my Amy Butler paper - I never seem to tire of this beautiful paper. However, what should have been a quick and easy card ended up being a pain in the ...... My Slice wasn't working properly to cut out the sentiment (took 5 times - finally changed the blade and cleaned the glass and it worked). Then my silly Xyron made a mess of the adhesive so when I was trying to rub it off (CTMH has an AWESOME adhesive removing eraser), the delicate paper was tearing! URGH. Anyhow, it is done and although somewhat flawed, I do like it!

I am sooo... exhausted and limited in mojo but wanted to play for a bit. Now I'm off to bed!

This week we are sponsered by Neatnix, and there is a cute little organizer up for grabs. Wouldn't you just love to win this:
Cardstock: Close to My Heart (Desert Sand, White Daisy, Sweet Leaf, Olive, Bubblegum and Watermelon)
Now for the inside of the card. I am going to send to my friend who I hardly ever see (we don't live in the same town) nor do we talk much anymore. So sad.
