Raspberry Suite Color Challenge #7

Here is my card I did for Dawn's Raspberry Suite Color Challenge #7. As you will see I went a little crazy with taking pictures! I actually made 3 cards and had a hard time choosing which one to use. So you'll see I posted my other cards I made as well below this post. I really like these colors, they're so pretty together!

See, I had a hard time deciding which one I wanted to use for the color challenge!

Card-a-holic

That's what I've been these past couple days! I've been making cards like crazy! I need to get caught up on some thank-yous, and a few others. I always feel so behind and late on things. But at least I eventually get to things! I don't like being late, but hey, it's better than not doing anything at all! I actually made 8 cards but one I did not like how it turned out at all and I need to see if I can salvage it!
Just a couple simple ones.

I really like how this card turned out!

And this one is one of my favorites! I think this is the card I will sent to my Grandma for her birthday.

These 3 I really like! I love the orange hearts with the blue!
I think I originally saw a similar card like this that Dawn McVey made.

This one is really cute!

Grandma + Me

This is a little something I created for my Grandma who just had a birthday. I love her so much and miss her so much! She lives several states away so I don't get to see her too often. This is going to be a little belated gift I will have printed as a 5x7 picture and then framed. I took this layout idea from page 23 in the June issue of Creating Keepsakes magazine. I really loved the colors and the delicate look of it, it reminded me of my Grandma. At first I thought it would be a little too busy, but I think I like it! I keep tweaking it, so we'll see if I end up changing anything else or not!

Todays cards...

Ok, this card I actually made a while back, but I did add those pins to it today. I'm really into those lately, I think it adds such a cute delicate touch!
This is actually the second card i made like this. I copied this card (the first one, you'll notice)Dawn made that I just thought was so cute and darling I had to recreate it! Not quite as neat as hers, but I think I pretty much pulled it off! I made the first card for my sister and her hubby's 13th wedding anniversary, and I didn't get a chance to take a pic of that one, cause it was a super quickie and I had to rush out the door. But I liked the card so much I made another one and figured with all the people I know I could send this for another anniversary. The only difference from the first one I made is that this one has a butterfly and that one didn't. I like the butterfly!

3rd card, all 3 + pure joy

Sometimes when I go to make a card for a particular person or occasion by the time I'm finished with it I sometimes change my mind on who it's going to be fore, but not always. Sometimes I just want to make a really special card for that particular person and if the end result isn't perfect enough or just what I wanted for that person than I will end up using it for something else. I needed to create a birthday card for my Grandma, while this card turned out cute, I'm not certain I am going to use this one for her or not, maybe though. I was inspired by this card that Ashley Newell created.

And here are all three of them together. If you haven't noticed, all three of these cards have something in common, have you guessed??? Yup, they all have pink! Haha! You're probably going "duhhh, Jessica".


And my handsomes were out with me while I was taking my pictures of my cards. This is my eldest being the cute big boy he is. Yeah, that hay bale is left from fall, eehh, I guess we should toss it, huh?!

And how could I resist such cuteness!!?!?!
