Mon. 3.5.12 A challenge and a thank you

Hi friends! I hope you all had a wonderful weekend!

Chevrons are all the rage right now, at least that is what I have been seeing in blogland. This card is the one I made for Betty's Black, white and on other color challenge for Mix it up Monday on StampTV.

The chevron background was made with a cut file and the flower, from Melanie's Stately Flowers 2 set was colored with Copics and popped up. This came together rather quickly and I liked the result.

I needed to create a Thank you card for a very nice sponsor on The Outlawz blog.  I hope he likes it. For this one, I used the chevron pieces left over from the card above, which I colored with Copics to match my dp.  The sentiment is a stamp that I received as a gift with an order, but for the life of me, I can't remember which stamp company sent it. Duh!!!!  The balloon image is from Melanie's "Square Pegs" stamp set. All CS used is from Gina K.

 Thank you for visiting!   ...Karen
