Happy Christmas

Hi all. Playing in this weeks Freshly Made Sketch #504 today.  Went a little rustic on this slimline Christmas card.

I made an online purchase from a stamp company and they wrapped up my purchase in this gingham paper. It was actually a bag, but I cut it apart and used it on this cad. Sentiment is from Impress cards and crafts and I embossed it in Ranger liquid platinum embossing powder. Most of the dies used for the greenery are from Echo Park/Carta Bella. Doodlebug designs made the dark red candy dots that I used for the holly berries.

Thanks for stopping by.

Thanks

Hi there from the snowy pacific northwest. Since it's a snow day (sort of) I decided to play with the Tuesday Morning Sketch #592.

Eucalyptus stamps and dies are from The Ton.  The thanks sentiment is from Simon Says Stamp. I used Rubbernecker fuse inks set #9 to stamp everything in. 

Washi tape is from Hobby Lobby (the paper studio) in "that" eucalyptus design.  Candy dots are from Doodlebug Designs and I colored a length of seam binding with the BG11 copic marker to match. 

Totally fun sketch to use up some washi tape or scrap papers with. Check it out!

Blue birthday balloons

Hello. Playing in the shades of blue challenge over at Just Us Girls today.

I used a alcohol ink background that was done in shades of blue from my unused card bits pile. Balloon dies are from Elizabeth Craft Designs.  Happy Birthday die is from Doodlebug Designs and cut out three times and layered together. Tied some natural string from PTI onto the ends of the balloons and tied a bow. Dot outline die is from MFT. Blue cardstock is from PTI.

CAS graduation card

Hi everyone.  Playing in two challenges today. Less is more recipe week is to use Shimmer. I started off using a piece of shimmer cardstock to create this clean and simple graduation card.

Cardstock and the congrats sentiment stamp are from Papertrey, Ink. I picked up these really cute graduation stickers from Doodlebug Designs at Impress Cards and Crafts.

I stamped the sentiment several times using my Nano Stampaholic to get it as dark as I could on the slippery shimmery cardstock.

That's it for now. Thanks for stopping by.

Thinking of you

Hey there. Here is my take on this weeks Freshly Made Sketch.

Azalea is from Altenew. I stamped it using Altenew's Green fields and Red cosmo inks. Love how it turned out. I also bought the coordinating dies and used them to cut the leaves and azalea out. I popped up the flower using foam tape so that I could stick the leaf branches behind it.

I used the stripe stamp set from Simon Says Stamp to create the background. I used the two lightest inks in the pink set at the top and just plain black for the 3 line one. Sentiment also comes in the stamp set.

Doodlebug matte candy dots used below the sentiment for a bit of interest.

Also adding this into the Anything goes challenge over at Simon Says Stamp.


Thanks for stopping by.

perk up soon

Hi everyone! I just got this stamp and had to ink it up to color it as soon as I got it. She makes me giggle.

It's from Whipper Snapper Designs called monster morning. Isn't she fun! I colored her using Copic's.

Sentiment is from Altenew called coffee talk and it has a lot of cute coffee themed sentiments that are different that what I already had in my stash. This one goes well really well with her, don't ya think?

Dies are from My Favorite Things. Blue print #14 and I also used stitched squares.

Green enamel matte dots are from Doodlebug Designs.

Entering this into the Just Us Girls word week.

Eyes

Hi everyone. I finally got my latest stamps from SSS and tore into them to play. Here's what I came up with.

I started with the current sketch over at Freshly Made sketches.

Designer paper is from American Crafts. Stamps are from Clearly Besotted and colored with Copic's.

The cool self adhesive googly eyes are from Doodlebug Designs that I picked up at my LSS. They come in many different colors and sizes. So fun!

OK, back to playing with the new goodies. More later.

I've got your back!

Hi everyone. I got a few minutes to play around with the new challenge over at The Paper Players and here is what came about.

Stamps and dies are from Simon Says Stamp.

I stamped both animals in versafine and heat embossed with clear embossing powder so that I could color with Copic's.

To get the Giraffe print on the giraffe, I used a parts of a stencil and a fine multi-liner Copic pen.

The side panel is a piece of mulberry paper that was colored with distress inks to go with the wild animal theme. Doodlebug designs candy dots along the bottom balance out the card.

That's it for today. Thanks for stopping by.

RI Designers Choice Challenge

Hello! This week at The House That Stamps Built, Joy is our hostess and she has requested that we use up our leftover supplies/paper.  Here is what I did with it.

All stamps are from Repeat Impressions. I stamped the cup on cream colored cardstock and then heat embossed with clear embossing powder so that I could color with Copic's.

I had the mint and flower designer paper in my stash for a while now and was just waiting for a good time to use it. The kraft cardstock is left over after cutting out a mesh panel.

I used white satin ribbon and colored it with Copic' to match the cardstock colors and tucked it behind the cup panel. Stitched square die is from My Favorite Things.

Coffee colored candy dots are from Doodlebug Designs.

Thanks for stopping by and do drop by the rest of the rock stars blogs to see what they did with this challenge.

Hi everyone! It's our Color challenge over at The House That Stamps Built for Repeat Impressions.

It's a little bright, so you might have to put on your sunglasses, but fun never the less.

I stamped the coffee mug in versafine and then heat embossed it so that I could color with Copic'. I did add a bit of white foam on top to resemble a latte using Copic Opaque white paint.

I used a dot die from MFT to cut the main image and sentiment out. The pink candy sprinkles are from Doodlebug Designs. My LSS carries all the different colors and I think I might need to go back and snap up the remaining colors that I need.

You can pick this wonderful coffee mug up over at the Repeat Impressions web site here.

Don't forget to stop by the other RI Rock Stars to see what they did with this color challenge.
