Tuesday Throwdown - Let's Go to the Pumpkin Patch!!

Hey there friends...  It's Team B's turn to bring you some inspiration over at Tuesday Throwdown!!  This week we are Sponsored by Freckled Fawn!!  They were so generous and sent a surprise package to each of the members of Team B - what a nice surprise!!  Our Challenge theme this week is Pumpkin Patch!!  I love to pick out my pumpkin, set it on my steps, and eventually carve it =)  I haven't gone for my pumpkin yet this year...  someday soon =)

One of the embellishments Freckled Fawn sent were really cool metal flowers!  I used one of them on my creation along with some long time retired paper from Close to My Heart (I was so glad I had a sheet left, perfect for this Challenge)...!!  I used an image from Robyn's Fetish and a sentiment from Paper Smooches.

I hope you will head on over to Tuesday Throwdown and check out the amazing cards from the rest of the Design Team and then...  play along!!

Tuesday Throwdown and The Colors of Fall

Hey there friends!!  Time for Team B to step up to the plate and provide some inspiration over at Tuesday Throwdown!!  This week our Challenge is The Colors of Fall!!  Fall is my most favorite time of year, so I was so glad this Challenge was for Team B =)  I just LOVE the cooler weather we are having and love seeing the colors of Fall starting to appear, more vibrant with each new day!!  I spent Saturday in New Hampshire and stopped by one of the many Apple Orchards.  This particular one is celebrating their 100th year - WoW!!  Here are a few pics showing some of those wonderful Fall colors...

         

There's just something about those GIANT Pumpkins that gets me every year...  Back to the Challenge.

Are your Toes in the Sand???

Happy Tuesday friends - time for Team B to bring you a new Challenge over at Tuesday Throwdown.  This week's Challenge is Sponsored by Sweet 'n Sassy Stamps and our Theme is... Toes in the Sand!!  Have you gotten any good beach time yet this Summer??  I haven't... yet.  I'll be heading to the Cape mid August through Labor Day and will be getting my toes in the sand for sure.  In the mean while, work and Wedding planning are keeping me pretty busy.  I loved pretending with this Challenge though and chose Hello Summer  which features fun images direct from the beach along with two summery sentiments for my Theme card!!

I used the Sketch from this week's Challenge over at Sketch Saturday.

Tuesday Throwdown and A Day for Daisies!!

Happy Tuesday Friends!!  Team B is supplying your inspiration over at Tuesday Throwdown with images from our awesome Sponsor this week - A Day for Daisies!!  I adore their images and this week I chose to use this beautiful Castle image "Where Dreams Come True".

Our Challenge this week is to make a project using the Spotlight Technique. I had never used this technique before and actually had to head over to Youtube and view a couple of Tutorials.  I found them very easy to follow and LOVE the effect!!  I will definitely be using this technique again and again!!

 This will be for a sweet little girl's 7th birthday...  May All Your Dreams Come True!!

I'm posting this card in the Make it Monday Challenge - Always Anything Goes.

Lace and Doilies!!

Happy Tuesday!!  We are having a wonderful Challenge over at Tuesday Throwdown...  This week our Challenge #137 is "Lace & Doilies"!!  Whenever I see doilies, I think of my Mom and all the "Church ladies" from my childhood years.  They always used doilies under there baked cookies, cakes, squares and even their fancy little sandwiches they would bring to Church events.  I think I need to make an effort to bring back the doily...  hmmm...

Back to the Challenge...  Our Sponsor this week is Robyn's Fetish Digital Stamps and More. 

This week's winner will be awarded FIVE free digital stamps from Robyn's Fetish!!

I have used the image "Tea for Two".  I cut the doily in half and mounted it on each side, added a strip of pink lace from Recollections topped off with some white ribbon tied off in a bow. 

I do hope you will stop by our Blog and check out the rest of the Design Team's cards for some inspiration, and then... break out your Lace & Doilies and join in on the fun!!
