Perfect challenge for this time of year!

Where do I start to let you know all the fun things I used on this card?  My background paper has been embossed with the DAMASK folder and all my decorative papers are from the LOVE LETTERS 6×6 pad.

The doll is called RUSSIAN DOLL, her wings are SMALL LACE BUTTERFLY WITH ANGEL WING.

The stamp YOU ARE LOVED finishes off the card.  I also used the FRUIT PUNCH Stickles to add some pretty shimmers to this.

JW Illustrations with Authentique Paper

It is a rainy day AGAIN and I ham creating with some cute things today!

Today I am going to show you a card I have made for JW Illustrations.

JW stands for Jessica Weible, just so you know!

Most of you know I have a thing for ladybugs, so I am using the LADY LOVE BUG digital stamp.

Here is what I came up with.

How do you like the paper combination?  It is a new collection from Authentique Paper called MIRACLE COLLECTION – GIRL.

As already mentioned the adorable bug is by JW Illustrations.  I love digital stamps because there is so much you can do with them.

I love being able to manipulate, and do what ever I can figure out how to do with, digital stamps.

As for the products I have used today here is a little list:

Stamp – Lady Love Bug – JW Illustrations

Paper – Authentique Papers – Miracle- Girl

Letter Stickers – Authentique Paper – Miracle Collection

Rhinestuds – Rhinstone Hues – Etsy

Pennant Die – Cheery Lynn Designs

What do you think?  Do you use Digital Stamps?  If so, what is your favorite thing to do with them?  I’d love to know!

Ok…I am done for today!  I might make another something for tomorrow…you never know!

Have a great day!

HEARTS

What an EASY PEASY challenge!  You have to play along.

My first thought was the title from a song in Les Miserables, A Heart Full of Love.

I could visualize what I wanted to do, and this is how it turned out.

Here it is with a dark background. I hope it is obvious this is a shaker card and I have filled the shaker with glitters and glass beads.

I used the gorgeous Forget Me Not Heart from Sweet Stamps.   Other supplies I used are Cheery Lynn Designs dies:  Heartland America,  Black Eyes Susans Embossing Plate.

I used the Heartland America die with the Embossing Pads so it would emboss my paper instead of cut it,

My embossed green background paper is from the Authentique Paper Splendid 6 x 6 pad.

Sweet Stamps Time!!

Starting today on the Sweet Stamps blog, we have another new challenge for you!

WINTER

(Whatever it means to you!)

What would you do for this challenge?

I have this adorable STUFFED BEAR that I have wanted to use and the WINTER challenge was the perfect excuse!

I used the HAT AND SCARF SET , MEDIUM SNOWFLAKE and the ICE DAY stamps.   Other supplies I used are Cheery Lynn Designs dies: Sunflower Die, Lace Edger,   Scalloped Rectangle Nesting Dies and Tropical Flourish.

Isn’t it great how the hat and scarf fit the bear? I love how it looks.

What kind of winter stamps and craft things do you have?  I would love for you to join our challenge and be sure to head on over to the blog to see my very creative team-mates winter designs!

CELEBRATE

How would you interpret this challenge?

My first thought was BIRTHDAY!

I used the cute little STUFFED ELEPHANT and the HOPE YOUR BIRTHDAY stamps.   Other supplies I used are Cheery Lynn Designs dies:  Sweetheart Frame, Miniature Rose, Black Eyes Susans Embossing Plate.

Although this card is in blue, I think it could easily be a boy or girl card.  With a different sentiment it could be a baby card.

My decorative papers are from the Authentique Paper – Journey stack.  This is such a fun pack of paper, I am sooo glad I have it to play with!

Chipboard fun with Sweet Stamps

Starting today on the Sweet Stamps blog, we have a new challenge for you!

CHIPBOARD

I love chipboard but I have to say, a little over a year ago, I had no idea what to do with it.

I even had to post in forums, “How do you use chipboard?”

Well, now having played with it quite a bit, I know there is pretty much nothing you can’t do with chipboard!

Here is what I have come up with today.

What I did was take this large die cut flower and cut it in half, covered it with cardstock and then embossed the candy canes on the cardstock.

I tried top take a couple of different pictures to catch the shine of the embossed things, pretty hard to do, sorry if you can’t see it.

The ribbon slide flower is also chipboard and I covered it with some decorative paper to compliment the other colors on the card.

New Sweet Stamps Card and Challenge

It is Tuesday and it is that time of the week when Sweet Stamps has issued a new challenge.

This week we are challenging you to do a Christmas Bling Card.

Here is what I came up with.

Bear with me.  This was extremely hard to photograph.

If I was able to capture the sparkle and bling, the background was washed out or the wrong green.  If I got the green to be right, you could not see any of the shimmer and sparkle.

I tried outside, inside, in the shade in the light, in the sunlight and nothing worked.  This is the best I could get and I am still not happy with the final outcome.

On the positive side, I have to say, the Holiday Sweets Set is just about the most fantastically fun set ever.  I love how all the candies look stamped.

I could use this set forever and never get tired of it.

Other items used:

Flower Tree

Authentique Paper – Wonder

Sweet Stamps Gate Fold Card

It is Tuesday and it is that time of the week when Sweet Stamps has issued a new challenge.

This week we are challenging you to do a Gate Fold card.

I found this adorable pattern here.

I used the basic design, but added to it.

Here is the card tied up.

This card is actually sized and made to hold a gift card. Here you can see I have untied the bow.

The Sweet Stamps supplies I used are Holiday Sweets Set and Christmas Joy. This is the inside of the card.

I have to tell you, the Holiday Sweets Set is just about the most fantastically fun set ever.  I love how all the candies look stamped.

The image below shows where the gift card enclosure is.

Here is the card with the card portion removed.
