MFT Sketch Challenge 186

 

 

I got a box of goodies that I had ordered from My Favorite Things

and so I thought to play along with their Wednesday sketch challenge.

You can check out their challenge HERE.

 

 

Here's the card I made:

 

This card folds at the top. To make it just cut 4 and 1/4" by 11 " and fold in half

I used a stampin up embossing folder for the front panel .

Then I cut a grey panel, added a patterned  paper circle

 that I cut with my new pierced circle stax dies.

The flowers were cut using the MFT Flower & Leaf Trio Die.

The HB2U Tag  is a  die that I got free for ordering a certain amount...so of course that gives me a reason to order even more stuff, because who doesn't love getting free stuff?!  lol

 

Thanks for stopping by.

If you want to make my day, leave me a comment..even if it's just to say "HI"

 

till next time,

Sweet Sunday Sketch

 

 

This morning I'd like to share with you a card that I made

using today's Sweet Sunday Sketch 228.

 

 

Here's what the inside looks like:

 

I paper pieced the cute little guy on the front. 

Easy to do...stamp on scrap of base color first and also stamp another one on white .

add shading ... no need to be neat, you're going to cut him out....

because I wanted him to have a pink tongue and white teeth,

I stamped him on white...colored his tongue and cut out the mouth , then

glued it on top of the green one. Then I cut out the green one and popped him

up with thin pop dots on the circle on the card front.

 

Here's the supplies I used:

 

 

and here's a picture of Gracie... who helped with everything!!!

 

 

Believe it or not ...this is her smiling!

Viva La Verve

 

Today's challenge on Viva La Verve is a sketch & an inspiration Photo

 

You can check it out out HERE

 

 

This is my take on it:

 

The butterfly was cut using my silhouette.

 I also used a edge punch and a MFT Die-namics open scallop doily die.

 

Thanks for Looking!

CAS(E) this sketch

 

Check out their  website and play along!

Here's the sketch for this week:

 

 

Pretty and simple...should be easy to do...right?

 

Well, I stayed pretty much just like the sketch and found out it's harder than you think

to get the right side exactly like the left side !

 

 

You can't tell from the picture, but I used black glitter on the butterfly

and a black glaze gloss pen over top of the flourishes .

the stamps I used are:

Simon Says Stamp- birthday messages

Butterfly by inkadinkado- spring mini assortment

and flourishes by Hampton Arts

The tiny black spots are very small black pearls.

 

Thanks for Looking!

 

till next time,

Splitcoaststampers

 

 

I love doing the challenges on Splitcoaststampers.

 

 

This is the card I made for Sunday's challenge:

 

You can check her out in my gallery HERE.

 

I colored her with copic markers. RV69 matched the plaid exactly...yea!

 

I was not so lucky when it came to the little pearls...but I did find out that you can color them with the markers....Yea, again!

 

 

Today the challenge is a CAS color challenge. They picked my favorite colors...double yea!

 

 

 

Thanks for stopping by today.

The cutting Edge Challenge #3

 

 

I've been away from my craft room far too long!

Today I'd like to share with you the card I made for

The Cutting Edge Challenge #3.

Here is the inspiration piece:

 

 

After many false starts.... mojo where have you gone!....

I ended up going with a monochromatic color design.

I guess if you can't decide what colors to use, pick one and go with it!

My daughter has a birthday coming up soon and her favorite color is Blue,

 

 

I die cut three balloons from the white panel and then used copic markers

to color the card front under the cut out spaces.

In my stash I found a product

called waxy flax by scrap works...can't even tell you how OLD this stuff is!

It made great balloon strings.

Then I die cut letters and splashed on some sequins and called it done.

 

Here's what I used:

 

Thanks for stopping by.

 

till next time,
