SCS colour challenge - A pretty flower Just for You

Here is a card that I made for Splitcoast Stampers colour challenge #CC294 - Baja Breeze, Blushing Bride, Crumb Cake and neutrals of choice. I used the closest colours that I had on hand (sage shadow, blush blossom and kraft). I cut out the Flower and leaves from Sizzex dies. I scored the Acrylic white card stock in a diamond pattern. The polka dot dp is from Bazzil "rope swing". I cut the kraft and rope swing card stock in a wavy line to make it look like a rolling ground scape. Assembled the card. Attached the ribbon and sewed around edges. I made the shrinky dink tag. Sentiment is from Clear Dollar Stamps "Everyday jar-gon" set.

Wishing you a speedy recovery - Jess

I'm a little late uploading this card. I made this card for this weeks Teapot Tuesday challenge (#MMTPT117 ) on Splitcoast Stampers for Charlene Merricks (where m & m's gather) step-son Jess. Jess was attacked by a neighbours vicious Dog and now is faced with plastic surgery to repair the damage to his face. I will be sending this off to Jess - wishing him a speedy recovery.

Jess is a big Nascar fan and loves Dale Earnhaardt Sr. I don't have any racing card stamps so I went on line and found this colouring page image. I printed the image twice, cut one out and coloured it with markers. Dry embossed the back side of the image on the front portion of the car to give it some dimension. Matted image with black and red cardstock. I created the checkered background by weaving the black strips into the white panel. Matted the checkered panel with red card stock. Stamped sentiment (from Stampin Up's Bird on a Branch set), matted with black card stock. Sewed all panels. Attached the screw brads.

It's time for another Totally Stampalicous challenge, and this week it is a COLOUR challenge - to use purple, green and black on your card or project...

Glue white fun flock to the bottom section of the Stella image and the tree panel. Applied white liquid applique dots for the falling snow flakes.

House Mouse Country Christmas

I just had to share this adorable House Mouse - Country Christmas card I made yesterday.. I haven't been playing with my HM images very much lately... and I absolutely love working with them. I made this for yesterday's technique challenge #TLC 295 over at Splitcoast Stampers - to make it shimmer. Plus Our Creative Corners challenge - to use at least three different embellishments.

I stamped the House Mouse image "Peppermint Pals " with Versafine Onyx Black ink and clear embossed. Inked up my acrylic block with Stampin Up Soft Sky ink and stamped over top of image. Stamped snowflakes on the background. Coloured image with Water colour pencil crayons and Tombow Markers. Next I applied Stampin Up Champagne Shimmer Mist with aqua painter. Applied Crystal Effects to the candies. Matted image with Forest Green card stock and a Kraft scalloped rectangle. I have had the Designer papers in my stash for a long time - not sure who made them. Made the base panel, Sewed edges. Attached the gingham ribbon. Punched out Martha Stewart Leaf springs, attached behind image panel. Tied the string bow and glued on. Applied Liquid applique for the snow. Image panel is popped up.. I sponged edges with Riding hood red ink.
I am very happy with how this turned out...

On Blitzen

Happy Sunday everyone.... I made this card for the Featured Stamper challenge over at Splitcoast Stampers FS193 Laurie Zoellmer (aka imamuttnut) and for this weeks challenge over at Our Creative Corners - to use at least three different embellishments. It also qualifies for the challenge over at Mark's Finest Papers to use faux or real stitching on your card/project.

Plus I am introducing a new Totally Stampalicious image from their Bugaboo line called "Christmas JJ".

Here is the card of Laurie's that I cased called "Tote-ally Tess". I changed the image and placement of the sentiment, the colours, added sewing and several embellishments to my card.

I stamped JJ with versafine onyx black ink and clear embossed. Water coloured her with Tombow Markers and Stampin Up reinkers. Added crystal effects to her eye glasses and wine glass. Cut out image. I stamped the sentiment on white card stock. Cut out oval and Bravo Burgundy oval matting with Nestabilities. Attached sentiment with brads. I cut the back off of the mini reindeer button. Applied Crystal effects over the sentiment and placed the reindeer into the CE. I had the tree sticker for a long time - I cut out some matching dp and placed it behind the tree cut out portion. Sewed panels and assembled card....
