Here's where I'm playing:
The theme for the week is "going dotty"
On to the cards:
My study in yellow and gray looks like this:
This one is for LIM and ATSAM. CAS, yes. Gray and yellow? Yes. SSS flowers cut and popped up. MFT frame die, and SSS sentiment. A bit of stickles for some shimmer. I watercolored the blooms with Zigs.
That's a Uniko blossom and leaves and a HA happy and birthday. A scrap of LF dp, some ribbons, and a few enamel dots. Colored with Copics. (Wish it wasn't so dark, though...)
And lastly, this card is going over to SSSW to play.
You just never know when you're going to need a "cool" card. Job well done, congrats, way to go...
Scraps of dp, and a Studio Calico sentiment and popsicle die. And that's all there was to it!
Now, if they boys keep solving the world's problems, I can get to some commenting! Here's hoping!!

Great selection of card Bev, I love those pretty yellow flowers, Cathy x
Lovely cards!!!!! You made my day popping over!!!!
It's great that you got a little "me" time and could crafty! I love how you've got three great styles going on. Soft and subtle colors on the first card, beautiful blooms on the second, and a totally cool retro look on the third. Love 'em all!
super collection of cards-my fav is the first, so pretty and fab dimension-pleased that head is better x
Three fab cards, Bev - from the soft elegance of the first to the vibrant punch of the third! I love your colouring on those Uniko flowers too. I have those SSS flowers but am ashamed to say that I have never inked them up - they look gorgeous in the pastel yellows with the grey frame. Thank you so much for playing along with us at Les is More this week :)
What gorgeous makes, Bev! They all look so stylish and beautifully laid out. Your card for our grey and yellow challenge is stunning. Perfectly CAS and so elegant with the soft, fresh yellow flowers and clean background. Thanks so much for playing along with us at Less is More :)

Glad you had some fun ... yay ... for the head, for card making and happy dancing!! Love your yellow and gray colored card. Thank you for stopping by my blog ... always enjoy your comments. Wish you a happy Mom's Day. Hugs!
So glad you are feeling better. Love the softness of the gray and yellow and the fabulous pops of red on the second one.
Those Artful Flowers are one of my favorites, Bev, and they look so pretty in yellow. I love the little flowers you used on the tag and who wouldn't want a cool Popsicle. I'm so glad you go some crafty time.
Bev such a lovely yellow and gray card! You TYI card is so pretty, I LOVE the Uniko blossom and leaves set. Of course the cool popsicle is super cute! Yay for not UKW's and hubby on a play date. Glad you found some time. Thank you for sharing with us at Tag You're It!
This post is excellent for showing off the wide range of your design talents, Bevie! I love the soft and sublime nature of the first, the bright and happy feel of the second, and the fun and delicious colors and lines of the third!! Winners all around!! Happy Mother's Day!! Hugs, Darnell
I adore each and every one of your cards!! The yellow and gray on the first one is so pretty together. I love the shine inside the flowers. The second card is striking with the red elements. I just posted my take on this challenge today and it is not as good as yours!! I LOVE your third card. That popsicle die is SO COOL!! Happy Mother's Day!!
You made good use of your play time! The three cards couldn't be more different, but they are all fabulous. Love the pretty, yellow flowers in the grey frame. The delicate flowers on the tag look so fresh in red and green, and the last card is simply cool and summery!
These are all so fabulous Bev, loving the subtle yellows with the grey and that funky bright ice cream it's uber cool!
Gorgeous cards! Those vibrant red flowers really pop off the tag. Thanks so much for joining us at Freshly Made Sketches.
How fabulous you're back 'en forme' Bev ... fantastic for you, and equally wonderful for us being able to enjoy your happy post and see this trio of delicious cards! Cool and funky ice cream, gorgeous vibrant colouring on the Uniko florals (I have this set!), and just the most dreamy little yellow blooms with their grey frame ... sigh (I have this set too!). One of these days I'll feel a CASE coming on! Thinking of you, mon amie ... and missing you! Hugs & bisous, Anita :)

I popped over to see your TYI card, and you have three! All are beautiful, but I do appreciate your take on my tag! Thanks for playing along.
Lovely tag card Bev
Wonderful cards, Bev! You've really showcased those SSS flowers beautifully in the yellow and grey. I'm partial to those red blooms on your beautiful tag. I like the darker red, myself. Cool "cool" card, and you are right, when those occasions come up, it's great to have one ready. Sorry for the late comment, I've been away for all kinds of reasons too. Lastly, Thanks for joining in on the fun over at Tag, You're It!
What a wonderful mix of cards!! And it sounds like it was a wonderful mix of music too!! I have to admit that I celebrate too on the rare occasions when I am alone in the house - my dancing happens in the kitchen moving between the sink, stove, fridge, etc.!!
Your flowers are so soft and gentle - perfect for "thinking of you"! And the red flowers are happy (I definitely need that stamp!) and the popsicle is cool!!
Love the 'me time' and sounds like you earned it! All beauties today. I came to comment on the gorgeous red blooms on your tag/card, and got treated to all the others. Feeling blessed by your lovely creations! Thank you for playing along at Tag You're It!
Such great cards love them all. Thanks for joining us over at Tag You're It.
