Happy Mojo Color Teapot Tuesday Challenges!!

Hello everyone and happy Tuesday!! I stayed up late last night to make this card so I am dragging a little this morning. It's a good thing I don't have to go anywhere!!
I made this card for the Color Challenge on Splitcoast...Pretty in Pink, Rich Razzleverry, and Chocolate Chip.
This is also for the Mojo 121 Sketch Challenge and da Mudder's Teapot Tuesday Challenge. It seems we are going to Hampton Hills, NH to find out who the Bad Apple is who keeps puttin Annie on her Fannie!!! It's happening in an apple orchard and poor little Annie Mae Appleseed who is a professional apple picker has developed a new Technique to pick 42,000 apples in 1 hour...yikes!!! The Bad Seed throws apples at her till she falls down...we gotta find out who is tossin those apples...hummmmm...Charlene...where is Bertie?????
I used the adorable Twinkle Tots Lottie image from the Greeting Farm...colored her with copics and added the ribbon, scallops, flower, button, and twine.

This card was made yesterday for the CAS challenge on Splitcoast to cut it out!! Cut out any paper elements/designs to attach to your card. I combined this with the DDC challenge. Charlene (LilluvsStampin) was the hostess for the DDC challenge last week and she dared us to make a grid background. I scored my background and then stamped over it with the Rubbernecker Victorian Diamond Panel background image....gives it a little dimension. If you want to play along, please add DDC to the keyword section of your upload. You can find the DDC challenges in the challenge forum here on SCS. The Stamp Oasis hearts, sentiment, and lace were stamped on white with Rich Razzleberry. Silver pearls were added to the flower centers on the hearts and on the tips of the lace.
I'll tell ya a little secret. I had to stamp the grid on the inside of the card so I had a guide to scor by. Then I stamped the image on the front trying to line up the scoring and the stamped image...it's a little off center but I thought it looked kinda dimensional. I was hoping everyone would think I planned it that way...LOL!!

Thanks for visiting and I hope you have a great day!!!!

New from Gina K.- Valentines Galore!!!

Hello everyone...hope you are having a wonderful Saturday!!! My sister, Kathy, and her husband, Scott are visiting this week from Iowa. They were expecting to bask in the sun...not!!! Since we were below the 20 degree mark this morning they felt like they never left home...LOL!!! Anyway.....enought whining about the weather!!!

I wanted to share the cards I made for Gina K's January Release Party on Splitcoast. The above two were made with images from Sung from the Heart illustrated by Rupa Shevde for Gina K. Designs. They feature Gina K's Pure Luxury Wine With Everything (new this month) and Chocoalte Kiss cardstock. My Minds Eye patterned paper, doilies, ribbon, with some silver pearls finish them off.

This card was designed using Happy Hearts illustrated by Tami Mayberry for Gina K. Designs and two Gina K's Pure Luxury cardstock colors called Innocent Pink (new this month) and Chocolate Kiss. The patterned paper is from SEI's Jolie Chocolat collection.

This card features the adorable umbrella image from Sung from the Heart. Two of Gina K's new Pure Luxury cardstocks were used...Lipstick Red and Passionate Pink. The patterned paper and glitter paper are from Doodlebug and the button, ribbon, and scallops finish it off.

The string of hearts image from Sung from the Heart was stamped with Memento Rich Cocoa and colored with copics. Silver pearls were added for the glam factor and the lace and twill finish it off.

Thanks for visiting....hope you have a great weekend!!!

Happy New Year! Bring on 2010

Hello everyone...are y'all getting ready for the big celebration tonight?? My DH and I will be staying home this year with a good movie and a bowl of popcorn. Not too exciting but it works for us!!

I made this card Tuesday for the Teapot Tuesday challenge. Sabrina (Cook22) was the Teapot Tuesday hostess with the mostess who filled in for da Mudder. She took us to the woods to look for bears, trees, and all the other things you can find there...not sure if I really want to find any bears but we should have fun!!! I went in style with my little camper...the grandkids were all sooo anxious and they were driving us crazy asking "Are we there yet??" I bet you have heard that a hundred times!!! The image is a paper cut from the Mr. Campy kit...I did a little sewing around the background layers and the bears from Happy Camper were stamped with Chocolate Chip. Ribbon and the tree brads finish it off.
This is also for the DDC challenge (found in the SCS challenge forum thread) this week hosted by Fran (Francie G.) to make a card showing what we would really like to be doing right now!! Whatever it might be, that is what your card should depict! I would love to be camping right now but I guess with all the rain, sleet, and other bad weather around here, I'll only dream about it!!
Please join us in our little challenge and add DDC to the keywords section of your upload so we can find your card. You can find all the DDC cards here.

I also made this card last Tuesday for the color challenge on Splitcoast. Betty picked Dusty Durango, Basic Gray, and Barely Banana.
I found a scrap piece of Anna Griffin dp for the background and stamped the main image with Basic Gray and Rubbernecker's Floral Silhouette image. Clear bling was colored with a copic and added to the flowers. I did a little sewing around the background layer and lace trim, PTI ribbon, and a heart charm for dessert finished it off.

I loved Tuesday's color challenge colors so much that I just had to make another card!!

I also combined the color challenge with last weeks DDC challenge hosted by Joanne (sleepyinseattle) to make a New Years card. The sweet little bird from Little Paper Shop's Christmas Wishes set was stamped with Dusty Durango and matted with Barely Banana. The sentiment from the same set was stamped with Basic Gray and sponged with Barely Banana. Scallops with a Martha Stewart punch, gray pearls, and gray ribbon finish it off.

Exciting News!!!

I have some exciting new to share with you!!!! I was invited by Gina K. to participate in Stamp TV's Center Stage Spotlight team for the month of January......Whoohoo!!!! What an honor and I am thrilled to share it with Betty Neville and Jen Charboneau (Miss Boo on SCS). Here is the link to the announcement on Stamp TV. We have lots planned for this month so stay tuned...the new stamps are awesome!!!

I made this Valentine treat box for my DH's Valentine gift. I know it's a little early...I just hope I don't forget where I hide it...lol!!!

This is also for two challenges on stamp TV....the Monday Color Challenge to use pink and brown and the Anything Other Than a Card challenge to wrap something with ribbon and use a circle sentiment, image, or flower in the center.

The dove image from Elegant Post was stamped with Memento Rich Cocoa onto vanilla cs and dusted with glitter. The round tin was covered with My Minds Eye dp and the lid was wrapped with ribbon.

The image was layered on a brown silk flower and a large flower die cut from the My Minds Eye paper kit. Pearls add the finishing touch.

Thanks for visiting today....hope you have a wonderful and safe New Years!!

Monday Morning Catch Up

Good morning everyone!!! I hope you are all recovered from the fun of Christmas last week...now we have a New Years celebration to look forward to!!! Not sure what we will be doing Thursday night .....nothing too exciting, that's for sure!!!

I did manage to get a little stamping done last week but not much time to upload. I hope this post gets me caught up and ready for a new year of posts!!! Anyway....

SmilynStef was chosen to be the Featured Stamper on Splitcoast today!!

What a FABO gallery....so many beautiful cards to case!!! I finally decided on the Marbled Agapanthus card...I kept the same style with the silhouettes and multi colored one layer background but I changed the stamps to Rubbernecker Sunflowers, changed the colors....sponged Tempting Turquoise and Bermuda Breeze on the background and a little yellow and green on the flowers. I also changed the sentiment and added the pearls. Perfect Pearls mixed with water was spritzed over the sponged background to add a little shimmer.

Recipe:
Stamps: Rubbernecker Sunflowers and sentiment
Paper: White, Black
Ink: Black Craft, Tempting Turquoise, More Mustard, Old Olive
Accessories: Clear Embossing Powder, Perfect Pearls, Black Pearls,

I made this gift box yesterday for the Inspiration Challenge on Splitcoast. Stef found the most awesome baby store called PoshTots...an upscale store that sells baby furniture and all the fixins. I can't imagine paying $2000.00 - $3000.00 for a baby bed but what ever floats you boat!!

The stripes of the Asa Bedding reminds me of the Cosmo Cricket Dutch girl paper I have been hoarding so I actually used two pieces (gasp!!). I took apart a box of candy I received for Christmas and made a template for this box. The images, all from Rubbernecker Stamps, were colored with copics. The sentiment says " There is no greater gift than a baby". Now I will be ready for the next baby shower I'm invited to...the box is big enough for a couple of onesies, booties, and bibs.

Don't look too close at the buggy handle...I had every intention of stamping another handle and adding it to the buggy outside the circle but I forgot till I looked at the picture on Splitcoast. I am toooo lazy to fix it now so pretend it's there!!!

Stamps: Rubbernecker Baby Inchies, Rubbernecker Bear in Carriage, Rubbernecker Sentiment
Paper: Cosmo Cricket Dutch Girl dp, White, Real Red,
Ink: Memento Tuxedo Black
Accessories: PTI Ribbon, Nestabilities, Copics, Dimensionals

I liked the inspiration site so much that I just had to make two projects using the PoshKids store for inspiration!!

Sunday was my DGS's 6th birthday so I made this fun little card for him and based my inspiration on the Percival the Dino Big Kid Backpack. The Clear Dollar Stamps Teeny T-Rex image and sentiment were stamped with Memento Tuxedo Black and colored with copics. The ribbon and fuzzy heart finish it off.

I made this card Tuesday for the Color Challenge on Splitcoast. We were to use Real Red, Crushed Curries, and Sahara Sand.

I also didn't want to miss the Mothermark's Teapot Tuesday Challenge Christmas Tea Party that Peggy was hosting!! Seems we were meeting rodents for a fun time and when my little space men showed up I thought they would like to come, too!! Actually, to tell the truth, I had one more Christmas card to make for one of my DGSs and this fit the bill perfectly!!!The Clear Dollar Stamps Alien Fred image was stamped on Sahara Sand cardstock and colored with a hint of color with a red copic. The little half aliens came from the the Clear Dollar Stamps Lost in Space set and the sentiment from their Just Chillin set. The balls were punched out of a scrap piece of SEI chocolate Mint dp. Silver cording and googlie eyes finish it off.

Happy Saturday!!!

Hello everyone...hope you are all having a great weekend!!! I have been shopping, shopping, and shopping!!! I tell myself every year that I am going to start my Christmas shopping early and every year I always make the mad scramble the last week. I will finish my Christmas cards tonight so I can concentrate on finishing all my shopping next week. Anyway...enough whining!!



I made this card today for the Inspiration Challenge on Splitcoast. Stef picked a great Etsy store called Sushipot. I really liked the collage layout of the Bricolage #43 with Poultry. I didn't have the right poultry stamps so I used woodland critters from Clear Dollar Stamps December Stamp of the Month set called Critter Log. I sewed around some of the squares, (I would have sewn around them all but my one and only needle broke...grrrr!!) stamped all the images twice, colored them with copics, and popped them with glue dots and dimensionals. Buttons tied with twine and ribbon finish it off.


Recipe:
Stamps: Clear Dollar Stamps December Stamp of the Month
Paper: White, Really Rust, Chocolate Chip, Basic Grey's Mellow, Daisy D's

This is one of the cards I made for my Christmas cards this year. It is really flat for easy mailing. I used Rubbernecker's Snowflakes and Stardust tree image and the edges were punched with an EK Success scalloped border punch. Blingy stickers and a ribbon to finish it off.

Recipe:
Stamps: Rubbernecker
Paper: Scarlet Jewel by PTI, Brazzill Green, Very Vanilla, Karen Foster dp

This card was designed by my DD Holly for the Austin Area SCS Christmas Swap I went to last weekend. She used a diecut card form Creative Cuts and More...the stamped trees (Stampin Up!) were attached to the Sahara Sand layer and then it was attached to the inside of the front...such a cool look!!! Since I smudged ink on the front edge, I used the EK Success Scalloped Border punch along the side to eliminate the smudge....don't ya just love this craft!!! You can always fix a mistake and no one knows what happened!!!

Thanks for visiting today...now I'm off to Target to find a Legos boat...hope they aren't all gone!!!

Creative Belli Challenge #80

Good morning everyone and welcome to another Creative Belli Challenge!!! Today's challenge is to use flourishes. You can use flourish stamps, pearls, chipboard, metal, stickers, rubons....what ever strikes your fancy!!
I used some teal colored sparkly chipboard flourished that I won as the 350th participant in the Moonlight Madness challenge...thanks Phyllis!!!
Both the deer images are stamps from Redlead Paperworks. The large double deer image called 2 Deer in Winter was stamped with Rich Razzleberry onto Pretty in Pink cardstock and the smaller one called Darling Doe was stamped with RR onto a scrap piece of Basic Grey dp. Ranger Distress Clear Rock Candy Crackle Paint was brushed over both of the images. The scalloped chipboard frame was colored with a copic marker and the dried image was attached to the back of the frame. The little deer was glued to the metal frame and tied to the ribbon with silver cording. The flouriehes were attached with glue dots and the pink ribbon finishes it off.
