Hi Everyone! Because of everything going on both here on my blog and elsewhere over the weekend I didn't post my cards for days 4 - 7 so as promised I am back now to share with you the cards I have made over the past few days playing along with the 31 Day Card Challenge.

Day 5 - Color Aqua
I only had one piece of Aqua paper in my stash so this is what I came up with playing along also with the latest Sketch Challenge at Sketches by Carly.
The Butterflies Stamp is from the Dream Big Itty Bitty Stamp by Unity. I have stamped in Tempting Turquoise Ink and used a similar color in my Gelato Pens to ink/smooch around the edges.
Day 6 - Technique - Paper Piecing
For this Card I am also playing along with the latest Color Combination Challenge of Tangerine Tango and Old Olive from Dynamic Duos and the Sketchbook Saturday Sketch.
For this card I am using up some of my old Stampin' Up! Papers in the two required colors. The Pear Stamp and Sentiment are both from one of my Unity Stamp Company KOTM's. A polka dot flower and some gem stones to finish.
Day 7 - Technique - Embossing
For this Card I started with Sketch #69 from the Sweet Sunday Sketch Challenge and decided to have a bit more of a play with my new Gelatos.
I clear embossed my butterfly and colored over it with a selection of Gelatos. These same Gelatos were then used to create the dry embossed watercolor look background which my cut out butterfly was mounted to. I mounted this on my card following the sketch and adding some rhinestones and dew drops to finish.
I am also entering this card into the Stamp Man October Butterflies, Birds and Bees Challenge.
Day 8 - Technique - Spotlight
This is one technique I haven't tried before, I have seen it around, so it was fun to try this one. I have used one of the ladies from the Darkroom Door Stamp Set Just My Style and colored the spotlight in with my Tria Markers. I have used an Echo Park Paper and SU Cardstock and Ribbon.
I will be back tomorrow with Day 9 and 10's Cards, until then happy stamping!

A beautiful selection of handmade cards. I love the different colours and techniques you've used.
All the cards are amazing Danie.
Love the unusual layout of the first card. Adore the homely feel and colours of the pear; and the simplicity and colours of the last card is stunning.
