Gift giving bear

Hello all.

Playing in the Freshly Made Sketch #663 challenge today and a few others below.

The bear image is from My Favorite Things. I stamped him onto kraft cardstock and colored it with primsacolor pencils. The stitched snowflake cover die is from Waffleflower which is used on the green panel to add a bit more interest. 

Anywho - thanks for stopping by.

Hello and welcome to another sketch challenge for Try A Sketch On Tuesday. 

The stamps are from Technique Tuesday. I fussy cut two of the nails to use behind the sentiment panel. The self-adhesive silver pearls are supposed to resemble nails as well. I specifically used an odd number of them, but looking at it now, maybe I should have added that last one to balance it out. What do you think?

Here is the sketch.

Hello all. Here is your mid-way reminder to play in the "thanks" challenge over at The Flower Challenge.

This flower stamp is from Concord & 9th. I used simon says stamp saturated ink with the stencils to color it. I also used a black gel pen to highlight the stamins. The thank you sentiment is from My Favorite Things.

Hello. Welcome to a new challenge over at Sunday Stamps. This time around we have a sketch for you.

The sentiment is from The Stamp Market.  I colored up a white die cut from Tim Holtz Sixxiz flowers and then colored it using Copic markers.  The gingham paper is from A Muse Studio.

Hello. Playing in the snow challenge over at Addicted to CAS today.

I used a stencil and Lisa Hortoncraft premium dye metallic pigment ink in silver to create the main snowy panel. I also embossed the snowflakes with silver embossing powder for additional dimension. The panel is popped up with a piece of fun foam. 

The Merry Christmas sentiment die is from Simon Says Stamp and cut out of silver cardstock.  I did back it with vellum that I added a bit of sparkle to with a wink of Stella pen. Lastly, I spritzed it with sparkle shimmer spray, which of course does not show up in the photo. 

Thanks for stopping by.

Hi and welcome to another sketch challenge over at Try a Sketch on Tuesday. 

I used a Penny Black embossing folder to emboss the circle.  The greenery around it comes from several different companies. Lawn Fawn, memory box, Echo Park, etc. 

The cream cardstock is from Papertrey Ink.  The rectangle dot die is from My Favorite Things, and gets a good workout from me. This one and the stitched die are pretty much a staple in all my cardmaking.  Do you have any that get a good workout too?

Hello. Here is the new prompt for you to use at The Flower Challenge blog.  We are looking for "thanks" this go around.

The rose stamp is an old red rubber one from Gray Wolf Graphics. I colored it with Copic Markers. I got lucky and found a piece of cardstock to layer it with.  Added a thanks die cut using some glossy black cardstock.  The dot rectangle dies are from MFT.
