House of Cards - Photo Inspiration any Style Challenge


Hi, friends!  It's time for another new FIFTH WEEK challenge here at House of Cards!  We've got a fabulous one for you this fortnight and we cannot wait to see what you've got in store for us!  Since our entire DT will be creating for this one, there is TONS of inspiration for you to choose from! Go over to the House of Cards blog and see what our fabulous DT has created!









You see I got inspired by the striped pillows and the vertical lines in this photo. I used a TCW stencil. The sentiment is by Papertrey - Mum's the Word. And those enamel dots - again!


This WEEK, we're asking for 
ANY AND ALL STYLES OF CREATIONS
PLUS USE THIS PHOTO INSPIRATION~

I hope to see you there!
THIS IS A ONE WEEK CHALLENGE...please make sure to get your entries in before next Sunday at noon CST! :)


I'm also  adding this card to the Moxie Fab STENCIL challenge 
and to Virginia's View challenge - its stencils for the next two weeks.
Looking at this weeks Muse challenge - hmmm - I think this cards fits, even that I did not make it for that challenge....happy coincidence, what d' a think? Or too much use of the same stencil? Too repetitive? Well, that was actually the first card I made with that stencil -just had to keep it hidden for the HOC challenge...

 Here is amazing Jacquie Southas Muse card - I like those little twirly thingies...

Another very cool and awesome card with this stencil! I have never looked closely at that stencil but if you keep coming up with gorgeous cards made with it I will have to put it on my wish list! Is it the 6x6 or the 12x12?

Deine Idee finde ich super. Diese Blau-grünen Streifen und der tolle Schriftstempel ergänzen sich prima und die drei kleinen Enamel dots passen auch hier wunderbar dazu.

Beautiful job you did, Cornelia! I love the gradient colors from the stencil. The gorgeous inking (on the 1st card) really speaks volumes here! So glad that you join the fun over Virginia's View Challenge!

Dynamic Duos combined with CAS Colours and Sketches

I am getting the hang of combining challenges....not sure if that's good or bad... In the past I would just put all my "creative energy" into one challenge and then just link up with others, if the card just happened to fit...but now I do that on purpose. Well, I'll see how it goes....                           Anyhow here is the card that came out of this: I did not want to add a sentiment - I 'll add it later, when I know who will get it. And here is a close -up: Challenges: Dynamic Duos CAS Colours and Sketches Addicted to Stamps and More Amusing Challenges Materials: Papertrey Background Basics: Super Stripes, Memory Box Chloe Stem die. --X-- Card for Maddy: You may know already about  Maddy ,  who  was diagnosed with Acute Myeloid Leukemia and went through chemotherapy treatment followed by a stem cell transplant from her (then) fifteen year old sister Melanie.  She now has a relapse and this car
