Sewn Together Challenge #2

Hello Everyone!

Here's the card I created for my Sewn Together DT challenge this week:


Isn't it "ghostly"? I used one of my newest Martha Stewart punches, purple, yellow, white & his eyes are pink...

This one here is just another Halloween card I made last week:



"Boo" I used my old Marth Goo punch, this one doesn't fold like the cool new ones but it punches the same. I added the glitter foam bat.

This one is similar to the challenge on only with different colors, this one was oh so fun to color. Thanks for stopping by and be sure to visit the Sewn Together blog, Angela also started a new digi stamping forum as well, if you have a chance be sure to check it out here.

Pixie Cottage Stamp DT Call

Last week I applied to be a new DT member for Pixie Cottage Stamps, they have the newest Whimsical stamps that look oh so cute for coloring. They aren't out yet but you can see a preview of them here.

I had gotten the info from Splitcoaststampers but the full ad can be found on Michelle's blog here. There you can see samples made with these cute stamps too!

One of the requirements of the blog ad was to post 3 samples so here are a few I haven't posted before that I'm pretty proud of:

This one was made using the cute mermaid from Fred She Said digi stamps, I used background paper from my stash, my Martha Steware balloon punch, scallop oval Nestabilities, an EK Success punch & some bling.

This one was pretty easy, a nice masculine card using a TAC stamp & my Happy Birthday cuttlebug folder, oh can't forget the Spellbinder dies (my favorite tool).

Last but not least a card made with Whipper Snapper cuties & Nestabilities. The paper is from a retired SU scrapbooking set Toy Box, this image too was fun to color with my Copic markers.

Well that's it for today. Hope everyone is having a nice weekend, back to work for me tomorrow but I do plan to post a bunch of stuff this week so be sure to come back!

The Weekend!

Boy, does the day fly by when yoy have sooooo much to do... I sent my picture and bio to Randa at Doddle Beans Digital Stamps so that she can post it on the site here Be sure to check it out! I also decided to post my picture now so I'll be sure to start signing up as a "follower" and such now since I have an identity so to speak :) Check out my new picture... Here's another sample I never shared before:

Happy Friday!

Well I wasn't going to post until tomorrow but found some other projects I hadn't shared yet so I took pictures of them & thought I'd share one today!

I made this one for one of the ladies that works for me this past summer. Her grandson fell off his bike & needed stitches so I used a Dustin Pike Digi, the saying is computer generated & I had gotten the idea from somewhere. Her and the grandson loved it! I'll be back tomorrow to post some others that I loved making. Be sure to come back!

First Sewn Together DT Challenge

Here's the card I created with my current favorite image from Sewn Together, it's called Jaden Cupcake & I just think the face is so cute, don't you? I used my newest Martha Stewart punch that took about three visits to my local Michael's here in Illinois, I sware I think our Michael's get everything last... Seems they never have stuff when others in other states say they got there's... So frustrating :(
This is the front, I also used Labels 4 from Spellbinders & lots of pink and orange bling, oh and the cardstock is from SU Rose Red, the background paper is from my stash & it has colored streamers on it.
This shows the raised image.

Here's the inside, I printed the image using the friendship size & now I have 34 little Jadens left.

Be sure to check out the other girls blogs to see their creations!

Thanks for stopping by!

Happy Monday!

Well not for all of us... I have to go to my "day job" yucky... While cleaning my galleries of personal photos this past weekend I realized I have several projects not posted so here are a few you may enjoy:
Here's some book markers made with the Chantigo Monkey Space stamps. I cut some glitter stars from the paper & glued them on colored with my Copics of course!

Next:
My Stampavie kitties colored with Copic again, here I used a brad from my stash some twill ribbon from Martha Stewart as well as my square Nestabilities.

Next would be:

Here's a Jolee sticker & a clear happy birthday stamp, I think from one of those Joann Fabrics packages where you got 3 stamp sets with a whole bunch of other stuff... Very girly card!

Well thanks for stopping by & if you have any questions please e-mail me or comment here & I will reply.

Come by tomorrow where I'll have my first Sewn Together DT challenge card :)
