Where Creativity Meets C9 - Challenge #14 - Colors of Concord & 9th

Hello, crafty friends! Welcome to the next Where Creativity Meets C9 Challenge. This month we are focusing on the Shades of Concord & 9th. For my card today, I used the super fun Hooray bundle. Let's jump right to my card...

I started by die-cutting circles in a few different colors...green, aqua, turquoise and teal. I die cut a separate white circle to stamp my sentiment on and also, three hearts for the centers of my circles. Using the dots and stripes in the stamp set, I stamped each of the hearts to dress them up a bit. Then I simply started attaching my pieces to the front of my white card base. And lastly, I added a few sequins. So super quick and easy, right! 

Thanks for spending part of your Monday with me. I hope you'll join us in this next challenge, Shades of Concord & 9th. You have until October 29th to get your projects in and enter for a chance to win a $25 gift certificate to Concord & 9th. Happy creating!

Honey Bee Stamps + Chibitronics WCMD Blog Hop

Happy Saturday to you! Welcome to the World Card Making Day Honey Bee Stamps and Chibitronics Blog Hop. There is a whole line up for you today, filled with tons of inspiration using this great product. This was my first time creating with Chibitronics and it certainly won't be the last.  

I kept my card just very sweet and simple for today. Seasonal Sweeties is one of Honey Bee Stamps new fall sets and also the set I chose to use.  

 I started with a piece of white cardstock and stamped my image right in the center. I knew I wanted to use the hearts in the set, so I stamped those underneath the umbrella and then picked a sentiment that fit with the rest of my card. Sending Showers of Love was perfect! I used my Zig Real Brush Markers to color that adorable image in. I wanted to add a little something to the scarf and boots, so I simply used my white gel pen to add polka dots. You can NEVER go wrong with polka dots! :)

And here are those three little hearts all lit up after I attached all my Chibitronics pieces! So fun, right? 

Here is the complete list of hoppers for you to visit. Honey Bee Stamps will be giving a $25 gift certificate for comments on every blog, as well as Chibitronics giving away a starter pack.
