Challenge #256: Color Inspiration Board

Good morning!!!
We have had the strangest weather here in California.  It's gone from high 70's sunshine, to cold, windy and even rain!!!  What in the world is going on?  Speaking of world; my heart and prayers go out to the thousands of people effected in the Nepal's earthquake.  I pray that they keep the faith in themselves, each other and their government to get through this unimaginable tragedy. 

This week we wanted to do something a little different with you.
COLOR BOARD INSPIRATION
Use atleast 3 out of the 5 colors.
You can use neutral colors such as black, white and kraft!
(Don't forget your sentiment!!!)

Challenge #255: Animal Love

Good morning...actually it's afternoon now!!
I am going to make a great effort to have the winners post from the week before posted before the challenge goes live.  I've received several emails suggesting that the wait is too long and I am taking that into consideration; however, I want to make a point. Running this blog is done out of love.  We do not get paid to run this blog, our time is completely volunteer.  So if we are running late with our posts, be patient with us.  We do have families and here at Sentimental Sundays...Family is FIRST!  So with that being said..Last weeks winners have been posted and here is this weeks challenge. 

This weeks challenge is:
Animal Love

We are delighted to welcome Jenn back as a sponsor.  we LOVE her image and and know that you you will too.

Now check out the beautiful cards created by the design team using these beautiful images from our sponsor.

Challenge #254: No SENTIMENT!!!

Good morning!!!
Did you miss us?  Well we missed you all, but we needed a little break to be with our families over Easter/Spring break.  We've also been talking about implementing some new changes to the Sentimental Sundays Challenges.  Everything is still in the air at the moment, so well will continue as normal til further notice!  :)  We will, however; be running a DT call in a few weeks.  So if you'd like join us, here is your chance to throw your name in the hat!

This weeks challenge is:

No SENTIMENT


This is the FIRST time EVER...EVER, this challenge has EVER taken place here at Sentimental Sundays!!  So please enjoy it!!!  Any cards WITH sentiments will be removed!!

We would like to welcome a new sponsor to Sentimental Sundays.
Fairy Tangle Art
We are so grateful for the opportunity.
She (Norma) is also offering a 10% discount to all our readers til Saturday.
Here is a little background on this amazing lady: 
"The magic of nature is what inspires me. From the little hummingbirds that visit my garden in summer to the great horned owls heard throughout the winter nights...there is magic in the air!
I've been involved in the arts all my life, painting, drawing, creating. Favorites are ACEO's (Art Card Editions & Originals), Zentangle® & Zentangle Inspired Art, and other Original Small Works of Art (OSWOA) These days, I mainly work in graphite, color pencil and ink.
I love fairies and fantasy - mermaids, dragons, fae of all kinds. Discovering the art of Zentangle about 3 years ago, I began incorporating "tangles" into my fantasy drawings and thus "Fairy-Tangles™" was born. I received my Zentangle® Teacher Certification in October of 2011 at the 7th Zentangle Teacher Training program held in Providence, RI.
I am co-author with 3 other fabulous Zentangle artist/teachers for the book, The Art of Zentangle. You can also find several of my drawings available as Rubber Stamps through Sweet Pea Stamps....just Google Sweet Pea Stamps."
Here are some additional places to look for Fairy Tangle Art:
