Hi friends! I have two cards to share with you today - my 2nd Riley and Co sneak peek and the Dueling Darlings so if you are stopping by for either, you are in the right place :)
First up, the sneak peeks continue at Riley and Company where 35 fabulous new Funny Bones stamps are about to hit the store! Exciting! For my card today, I used the new Funny Bones stamp "Seeing a spider" and paired it with Miss Muppet Sophie ~ eek is what I'd say! Luckily, this little spider is as cute as can be!
Please be sure to stop by the rest of the Riley and Co DT to see what sneaks they have for you today!
And in case you wanted to play along, you still have time to enter your cards in the biweekly Riley and Company Challenge at the blog. The challenge this week is to use Sophie on your card, keyword 1413.
Also, just as a reminder, the Riley and Company blog hop will be at 10 PM EST on Thursday, July 18th! Hope to see you there!!

Next up, it's the 15th of the month and that means the Dueling Darlings post our cards created from the kit sent to us by the monthly hostess. This month, our hostess is the fabulous Barb! Her kit was absolutely delicious and she was so generous with the gorgeous supplies ... I can easily make another 2 cards with her kit!
Using the image she sent to us, I colored it up with my prismacolor markers and used the brightest, boldest and most fabulous papers of the kit ~ love these fun, summery colors! She sent us the Whipper Snapper Ice Cream bear image to color along with a plethora of ribbons and embellishements, it was really hard to chose! I used a scrap of one of the front papers to add a little to the inside of the card. I supplied the cardstock for this kit and used the In colors: Primrose Petals and Summer Starfruit ... exactly what color is Summer Starfruit? I love it! I can't tell if it's a yellow or a green or a little bit of both!
I hope you get the chance to stop by the rest of the Dueling Darlings blogs and see what they made with this card kit!
You can find them in my sidebar :)
Big hugs, Bigger Blessings!

ReplyDeleteAW!! Both creations are really sweet Kelly!! I love that sweet little teddy bear!! Beautiful job on both of these my friend!
ReplyDeleteWOW, WOW, WOW, great cards both of them. Love the sentiment on your riley card...it is so true and I love the colorful burst of happiness your DDD card brings. You have created two masterpieces and they both are absolutely perfect..So glad we are friends and am truly blessed you are part of my life...♥
ReplyDeleteYour Sophie card is too cute. I am not a spider fan and do like this one!
ReplyDeleteYour DDD card is so cute! I love the square panels and DP showing off. That green flower ties it all together with a 'lil pop!
Kelly--first your Riley card is adorable--and so true.........
ReplyDeleteAnd, your DDD card is too cute. I love how you used so much of the kit. I really like the layers of the ribbon at the bottom and I love the inside of your card. AND--great use of buttons!
Thanks for the awesome creation that month--and keep eating ice cream!
I love both of your wonderful cards! I have to say that the sentiment of the first card is so very true!! Of course, if all spiders were as cute as this one it wouldn't be so bad...
ReplyDeleteYour ice cream bear is adorable and I love the awesome green fringed flower!
Isn't summer starfruit the coolest color? Initially I hated it, but it looks wonderful paired with other colors! Kind of morphs with the surrounding colors...
Oh Kelly this is fabulous - love the Riley card - it really made me smile as there is nothing worse than a White Tail spider getting away (they have a toxic nip)!!
ReplyDeleteLove the Duelling Darlings card too - so glad we are now half way through winter!
Blessings
