The Pick 3 Challenge #2 - Feb/Mar 2026

Hello Crafty Friends and Happy Friday!  Today begins a new challenge month at the new Pick 3 Challenge Blog.  The premise of the challenge is to take 3 of the 6 elements provided to you, and create using your choices, making sure to tell us which you've used.

  Here is the element list for this month:

For my team project, I've used Bright Colors, Flowers and Circles.  I had a shop in my stash and found some bright and cheerful floral stickers I thought be be perfect for the color and flower elements,  I've die cut 3 circles for that element and viola!  Complete!

The patterned paper is from the "Blush and Mint" 6x6 paper pad by Recollections.  The sentiment is from a Spellbinders Kit of the Month stamp set, and the sentiment strip has been popped on foam pads. 

Please stop by the Challenge and check out what my teamies have created with their Pick 3 elements, and we hope you'll play along too.  

Until next time, Happy Crafting!

Let's Play with Circles

Hello and Happy Tuesday!  The last Tuesday of the month...wow, I know February is a short month but this time it flew by faster than years' past.  I have a quick share today using a geometric shape and ink blending.

I was inspired by a video short I saw by Ardyth Percy-Robb, who is the Queen of ink blending and geometric shape designs.  For this simple design, all you need are circles, which I've die cut, and  shades of each color.  

After ink blending the circles, I've embossed them and adhered flat to the card base with a thick strip of black card as a backdrop.  I've splattered everything with gold and white paint, added silver sequins and popped the sentiment strip on craft foam.  That's it...easy peasy and so effective.

Have a fabulous day and until next time, Happy Crafting!

Make My Monday Challenge - Going Round in Circles

Hello and Happy Monday!  I hope your weekend was spectacular.  Today begins a new challenge at the Make My Monday Challenge Blog with the theme being Going Round in Circles.

I created a round card and embellished with circles in order to match the theme.  I used a few dies in my stash to create this pretty Spring card. I used the largest circle die I had to create a 5" circle for the base of the card.  I was lucky to find another circle die for the printed mat that left a nice border.
The sentiment is a sticker from a pack I found at the Dollar Tree; that was a special surprise!

Please join us this week at Make My Monday and let your imagine run with what you can create using circles.  We would enjoy seeing your creations.

Until next time, Happy Crafting!
