This is one of the grids I made, which was won by Dee in England.
I went for blue and birds.
ETA - adding this to the Moxie Fab challenge, Mix and Match, which can be found here.

Red, white and black
I sorted the reds and neutrals to make this grid.
Love this color combo which has a beige card stock base.
Have a great weekend!

Mix and Match
I was busy making this puzzle when I saw a tag in between my punched out squares. I thought I would use it on my card in this way, adding a coordinating stamped out flower.
I love it that this represents the colors I have been working with lately, just the scraps, of course!
Have a lovely day. Unfortunately here the weather is cloudy, windy and cold.
ETA - Cath's challenge was launched on 12th of June and this is from the 12th of May - so four weeks previously which counts as an addition to her challenge.

Spring theme with green and brown scraps
My theme today is Spring - using the green scraps - I love making these puzzles!
These punched out squares are smaller than the ones I use for the home-decor projects.

Grid for Home Decor Project
This is one of my newest Grids for Home Decor projects. I chose the tones of orange/turquoise/shades of brown/green and black.
This is what it looks like when it has been framed. The size is 12"x8,5". They look very decorative in a small space, like just above a low cupboard for example. It is not for a huge wall as the only piece as it looses itself in that way.
I am thinking of doing a give-away of one of these very shortly on my other blog. The color theme will be all shades of blue, red and brown. But that is still a surprise.
Thanks for popping by. Oh by the way, if ever you feel like making one, they make perfect presents for birthdays or even weddings. I make these with butterflies too, perfect way to use up the scraps. To me, its like making puzzles.

Grid-Tag card
Because I love making them, another grid card, this time with tags, three in a row, vertically placed.
I chose coral, pink, grey and brown. I used the scraps I had in my basket. Unfortunately the scraps are diminishing in such a fast rate! But I'm glad I can find a home for everything I have and hardly throw anything away.
My tags are 8cm x 4cm and my card size is 13cm x 8cm, which for me is the standard size I usually use.
Have a lovely week of crafting!

Winners!
I won't keep you waiting any longer, I just got back from an eye-test. Before I went I had already picked out two names. I put all the names (and two times for those that visit this blog often) in a cup, as there was nobody in the house I had to pick the winners myself.
First of all I picked out Laura-Jane, who said to have no desire for the stamp, so she gets a card, and then I had to pick another, which was Maria from Russia who will get the stamp.
So there you have it ladies. I wish I could do more, but its the luck of the draw!
O.K. so I just now picked a third name and that is... KAILASH - she will be getting a card from me too.
Congrats ladies!

A Tag-grid design and a give-away
As I have said in the past, a grid design can be all shapes and sizes. So this time I'm introducing the tag-grid, made from scraps.
These are so enjoyable to make and they give a home to all the little bits of paper, embellishments etc. that you may have. I hardly have to throw anything away.
Now, I have a give-away. The following photo was on my post of 1st April. I would like to give this stamp to anyone who could find a use for it. No use keeping it if I'm not going to use it. That is not what stamps are for.

So, if you are interested, leave a comment and I will pick a name on Wednesday. I will also be sending one of my inchie cards with it.
Good luck.

Changing the source, but still the same style, I have been playing with old magazine covers and punching out inchies to create these cards. ...
