Monday Lunchtime Sketch Challenge 10

Here is today's sketch. I think it is a fun one and can't wait to see what you come up with!




And here is my card. Pretty simple actually. I did not fill in the front yet because I am not sure of the details. I made this card for a friend who is having a baby shower. And obviously we already know it is a boy! I am so excited for her. Congratulations Sheryl! Now I just need to make a bunch of these if her mom approves of it!. It does not open up it is more like a postcard with a pull out tab.



Stamps: Hugs and Wishes, Nursery Necessities
Papers: Basic Grey, Wild Wasabi, Bashful Blue, Pumpkin Pie, dp from the Crew Kids Boy scrapbook kit and dp from the Summer Picnic paper pack
Ink: Basic Black and Wild Wasabi
Other: Star faux brads, markers, word window punch, circle punch.

Baby Frame and More Sketch Players!

This was a super fast, but kinda cute gift. I used the Bundle of Joy set and the Spring Picnic papers. I love the colors and wanted the middle of the frame to really stand out. This $20 frame was on clearance for $2 so not only is is a fast gift but cheap too!

Check out these great cards done for this weeks sketch!

Happy Easter! He is ALIVE! and living in our hearts!

Lucky to have you!

Isn't this the cutest ever! I love it. I used the cherries from the Tart and Tangy set. I have to admit this was not my idea, I was inspired by this card by Laura (scrapextras) on SCS. I just made it look like a traditional slot machine with the handle and spot to put your money in. Way too fun! Hope everyone has a terrific Easter.

Right Back At Ya!

Today's SCS Limited supply challenge was to make two cards using the same stamps and papers. (that is the short version of the challenge to see the whole thing click here) So since I just did my last minute Blogger's challenge in the last post--and you know I didn't clean up after--I thought why not?! So here is round two of the color challenge.


This shows both cards next to each other. Which do you like better?



Here is the card on its own. I embossed the silver frame from the Hodgepodge to make it match. I also stamped the one flower in Apricot Appeal. The only other addition is the one of a kind stamp from the designer label punch box set. I like it!

Stamps: Wild Rose, Always, Floral Background and the retired designer label punch box stamps
Paper: Chocolate Chip, Soft Sky, Blue Bayou, Real Red and Whisper White.
Ink: Chocolate Chip, Soft Sky, Blue Bayou, Real Red, Apricot Appeal and Always Artichoke
Other: Hodgepodge hardware, large chocolate chip brads, designer label punch, paper piercier, water pen, embossing powder and versa mark

OK, I have to go and participate in our local Cross Walk-- our church reenacts the last days leading up to Jesus being crucified on the cross in our town! It is such a sight and a real reminder.

Blogger's Challenge #39--Roses are Red

I am very happy with the way this turned out! I went down to my studio to make a card with this week's Monday Lunchtime Sketch and a coffee theme and somehow this is what I made instead! Tee Hee funny how the creative mind works, lol. Anyway, I think this will be my Mother's Day card this year -- because she does mean everything to me!

So the Blogger's Challenge this week was to use the colors Chocolate Chip, Soft Sky, Blue Bayou and Real Red .


Stamps: Wild Rose, Always, Floral Background and the retired Watercolor minis
Paper: Chocolate Chip, Soft Sky, Blue Bayou, Real Red and Whisper White.
Ink: Chocolate Chip, Soft Sky, Blue Bayou, Real Red and Always Artichoke
Other: Chocolate Chip wide satin ribbon, large chocolate chip brads, large scallop oval punch, sponges
