There's a new challenge at Crafting from the Heart and it's sponsored by Le Ann's World 101. I chose Molly to use for my Design Team inspirational card. She makes a great Memorydex card!

I colored this adorable image with Copic Markers and cut it out leaving a narrow white edge.

I printed the sentiment on colored card stock. I used my Cuttlebug Machine to cut it out with Spellbinders Nestabilities die S4-110. I cut a second shape larger in a contrasting card stock and glued it to the first.

I cut 3 memorydex cards in my Cuttlebug Machine, using the Heidi Swapp dies. I adhered the cards in layers and glued the sentiment and image on top.

Come and join the challenge at Crafting from the Heart, where anything goes.

Here's my second card this month for the Scrapbook Stamp Society. My choice for the design team card, the My Besties Chill In Out, from the Fancy Pants Collection.

I used Copic markers to color this cutie and cut her out leaving a narrow white edge.

My Goodness Memorydex Card

There isn't a sponsor for the current challenge at Crafting from the Heart, the challenge is just for fun. I chose to use Goodness by Mo Manning for my design team inspirational dex card.

This sweet little girl brings back memories of watching Shirley Temple on TV, when I was a child.

I colored the image using Prismacolor Pencils and cute it out leaving a narrow edge. I cute 3 dex cards using my Heidi Swapp dies in my Cuttlebug Machine. I also cut several small hearts from a with a small punch.

I used the Craft Artist 2 program to print the quote and a Spellbinders Nestabilities Classic Oval Die (S4-110) in my Cuttlebug Machine to cut it out. I layered the dex cards and adhered the image, hearts and quote to the top of the layers.

I am looking forward to seeing your work in our challenge at Crafting from the Heart, where anything goes.

The new challenge at Fabrika Fantasy for April is to make any shape project except a square or a rectangle. I chose Cute Toy #5 for my design team inspirational card. My card is circle Memorydex card.

The image is a lovely bunny reminding me of Peter Rabbit, a character from a children's book by Beatrix Potter.
