Paper Smooches Designer Draft Challenge



For the Designer Draft Challenge I used the Free Spirits stamp set.  I seem to be fond of chevron designs recently, so I used that for the embossing and patterned paper.

The best part is I stamped the bottles with a clear embossing on black paper and cut around them and mounted them with some foam adhesive.

I think the Paper Smooches stamps are the best!  I have used all different inks and the images are always crisp.

I felt like celebrating when I finished this card!

Thanks for stopping by . . .

Art Impressions Challenge 129 - Card Two


This is my second card for Get Krafty Week 2 challenge for Art Impressions.  Sadly, the camera has not caught the coloring very well, she really is not quite so orange!  I used the kraft paper as sand and tore the edge and embossed it.  Copic markers were used to color the scene.  I used the Wink of Stellar clear glitter pen on her bathing suit for that subtle wet sparkle look.  I love the AI stamps, they all make me laugh.

Thank you for visiting.

Art Impressions Challenge 129


For the Art Impressions Challenge 129, Get Krafty Week Two, was to use brown kraft paper somewhere.  I stamped the kraft paper with a brown ink using a woodgrain stamp. The die cut is chicken wire and of course the stamp is one of the funny AI Bird-Brains.  I colored the hens and the die cut using copic markers.

Thank you for visiting.

OWH - Sketch Challenge #210


Tim Holtz all the way!  This Sketch Challenge was the third part of the Super Card Bowl for OWH.  I have not done any distressing in a long while and it was fun.  The sentiment is an old Cuttlebug die.   The sad part of these old photos is one of them looks just like me and my mom when I was a little girl . . .

Thank you for visiting.

OWH - February Daily Bread Challenge


For the February Daily Bread Challenge, you are to use brown and make a masculine card.  My dog is white, but a Great Dane is more likely brown.  This is a Inky Antics stamp set and a touch of glossy accents on his nose makes this card!  This will also qualify for the Super Card Bowl for OWH and then it goes in my pile to send to Sandy.

Thank you for looking.
