Bloggers Challenge #37

I was surfing around SUDSOL the other day and came upon this super easy template and thought it was just adorable so when this weeks Blogger's Challenge was to make a different shaped card I knew I was gonna try this one. I am really pleased with the results. And the good news for all of you is that I normally would not be able to share the template because it is on SUDSOL (a demonstrator only site that you pay/earn) but after doing a google search of the person that shared on there I found that she had a blog and better yet she has a tutorial for the card there too! So thanks goes out to Jana Mays for the inspiration! Click here .....for the tutorial.

And now for my versions of it. I want to try a few more of these because they really are fun. When the card is open it stands up by it self! But it folds down to fit into a regular sized envelope too!






This is the card open.



And here it is closed. I am so glad that I pulled out this set to use, I fell in love with it when I seen many of you (Pat Huntoon comes to mind immediately) creating wonderful samples but then I only used it twice and it has been on the shelf.

Stamps: Fabulous Flowers
Paper: Purely Pomegranate, Basic Black, Whisper White and Bali Breeze DP
Ink: Purely Pomegranate, Pumpkin Pie
Other: Paper Piercer, brad, glitter, Cherished Memories rub-ons.


Don't forget to click on the logo on my side bar to see all of the other players and what they came up with -- should be a lot of wonderful creations so get your cup of coffee and relax as you are inspired! TGIF! Hope everyone has a great weekend.

Merci and More Monday Lunchtime Sketch Challeng #7 cards.

I really don't like this set but since in was free -- ya got to give it a try, right? This is my first attempt. I think one of the things I don't like about the samples I have seen with this is the way this stamp looks colored in????? I really have not seen too many samples so that don't mean much, lol. Hence the reason I have NOT colored this in.

Stamp Sets: Merci and Simple Sayings II
Paper: Bashful Blue, Certainly Celery, Rose Red and Whisper White
Ink: Bashful Blue, Certainly Celery and Rose Red
Other: Paper piercer, markers, brads and coluzzle cutting system

And now for a couple more sketch challenge cards.....
