Our Colour Dare Challenge for #410 is a Red, White & Blue challenge with Black, silver, gold and neutrals free. You are invited to participate in this challenge too. Go to the link for Colour Dare #410 and add your entry. 

I made a selection of cards using the scraps of Red, White and Blue cardstock, paper and inks. I used Sapphire Ink, and Candy Apple Ink for my titles.


I used a variety of thin cuts, and cricut cuts mostly from Cricut® Artbooking Digital Collection. I used the off-cuts fro the star page to make the star cards on these 3x3 sized fathers day cards.

I'm not sure what the size of the original cut out that I used on another project but I kept all the star cutouts and used them on my cards below. That's how I got the random, half stars, and stars with their points cut off... I was able to add them to my cards and not waste a single piece of paper. I love a project that is a two-for-one cricut cut out. 

I made a bunch of these 3x3 sized cards for our local primary school to sell on their Fathers Day card. The ones pictured below are just a selection - I made 20 in total. I used my sequins in blue, and stickers in red, everything else was with paper. Every card has red white and blue in a variety of shades and tones. It was really great to scrap my stash and use up all those off cuts and little scraps of paper.

Our Colour Dare Challenge for #408 is a Tick-Tac-Toe with Black, White, silver and gold free. You are invited to participate in this challenge too. Go to the link for Colour Dare #408 and add your entry. These are the colours of the Timber Scrapbooking Workshop Kit & Timber Paper Packet + Sticker Sheet

I chose to make a Fathers Day Card as it is coming up shortly and I am needing some cards to sell at the Good Life Store in York, Western Australia where I have some of my cards for sale. This was one of the cards I made for that. 

The colours I chose in the tic-tac-toe were the left hand column were New England IvySapphireBallerina and then added some Toffee Exclusive Inks™

I used the You Make Me happy stamp set which is soon to retire at the end of August. So grab this stamp set and with every purchase of this stamp set, $7 USD are donated to the life saving mission of Operation Smile™.  Set of 25.

I stamped in Sapphire Exclusive Inks™ with one of my CTMH Script fonts and then stamped the "Just for You" from the You Make Me Happy stamp set also in Sapphire. 

Strokes of an Artist was used to stamp the Toffee Exclusive Inks™ in second generation on the corners. I inked it up and then stamped it on scrap before stamping on the edge of the card for a more aged appearance.

The heart banner was cut from the Cricut® Artbooking Digital Collection and trimmed on the edges after I stuck ballerina cardstock behind the hearts. 

The New England Ivy paper was from my stash as was the Sapphire paper. I used the stitched circle thin cut which has sold out now but new thin cuts are coming soon (watch this space!).
