I may do a tad more creating tonite but probably will not finish early enough to create add to this post as I am doing my best to get on a better bedtime schedule. Thanks so much for stopping by.
I'm Paula, an avid scrapbooker with 2 nearly grown sons. I have been scrapping for about 17 years & decided that I would like to share my love & talents for it with others. I created 'Precious Pages by Paula' to do exactly that. There is a line of pre-designed scrapbooks & frames, as well as doing custom one-of-a-kind albums with your photos. Cards are prayerfully made in the hopes of carrying special blessings to their recipients.

MAKING THE GOAL!
This weekend was another online crop and my normal goals for a weekend crop are 4 layouts and 4 cards. Yesterday I obviously made the layout goal (and some). For today I needed to complete the cards. I was getting tired by the third but wanted to make the goal so here we are!
My first card was for the Paper Secrets CYAO challenge. I had to use the following sketch plus 3+ hexagons and wood. The Colorful Creations Creative Card Challenge called for using 3 patterned papers so this card also meets the criteria for that challenge.
I cut my 3 hexagons and layered them on top of each other. Then I took a wood piece of holly. I colored it first with markers and then to subdue it I went over the top with some black ink which I also used to ink the edges of my hexagons and circles. I added a rub on sentiment which reads Seasons Greetings.
Here is my first card:
The sketch:
Card #3 used Color Palette #229 from Color Throwdown and Deconstructed Sketch #89 from Decontructing Jen. I used scallops and lace for the Frilly Challenge at Delightful Challenges. I started with a layer of sparkly brown cardstock. I edged some olive patterned paper with a scallop punch. I added some blush cardstock which I also edged with the scallop punch. I added a square that had the colors and the sentiment Let It Snow which was on a brown sticker. The edges of everything were inked with brown ink. Last I added some white snowflake lace.

My card:
My 4th and final creation for today used color palette #62 from Inspired By, and Pretty Patterns sketch number 82 from My Time Made Easy. I added a butterfly which made it qualify for the "A" - Anything With Wings challenge from Alphabet Challenges, things with wings for Allsorts Challenges week #194, and Less Is More challenge #107 Up in the Air (things that fly). I started this one with some yellow patterned paper, some yellow cardstock, grey herringbone patterned paper, a white cardstock oval, some white gimp, and a yellow felt butterfly.

I hope you have enjoyed tonite's creations. Thank you for stopping by and sweet dreams...I am off to bed!

My second card used sketch #197 from Unscripted Sketches and the color palette challenge #102 Red, Pink, Purple and/or White from Die-cuttin Divas. For this card I started with some pink patterned paper. Next I cut a strip of Coredinations red/white cardstock which I embossed and sanded. I backed this with some red cardstock. I added a small square of purple cardstock on which I put a charm that reads 'Follow Your Bliss'.

MONDAY MONDAY
Today I have a tag and two cards to share with you. We will start with the tag. The tag was done for a challenge over at Dragon's Dream which calls for the color orange, leaves, metal and a real stamp. I also entered it into the tag challenge over at Colorful Creations calling for a Halloween themed tag. I started by embossing my tag and coloring it with Persimmon and Walnut stain Distress Inks. I then used a leaf stamp and stamped all over the background. I added some Halloween diecuts and a few sticker leaves, a metal brad that says Halloween and finished it off with some fun fibers.
Here it is:
My first card used inspiration from Inspired By which I chose to use the colors of the inspiration as I knew I had some fun retro papers that would be perfect. I chose a sketch from My Time Made Easy and a scripture from Word Art Wednesday.

Card #1:
My second card is for this week's CYAO challenge over at Paper Secrets. It uses a sketch and you must select 3 of the following elements to include on your card: *heat embossing *metal *glitter *border punch *handmade flower *pearls. I chose a metal frame, a border punch and pearls.
