Stampin' Flybaby October Crafty Challenge #4

The October Challenge #4 for the Stamping Flybabies is to use at least one embellie but no more than three. I used the new Merry Little Christmas stamp set by PTI. It sure doesn't look like a Christmas set. I guess that is why I like it so much, very versatile.

My embellies are a ribbon and a button. Good thing we got to use lots of layers! lol

My only color, other than black and white, is Scarlet jewel. The picture doesn't really look like these all match but IRL they do. :D

Hope to see you again soon.

BethieJ's Challenge #3

I know, I should be in bed but a challenge was issued and I needed to answer.

This week we had to choose between

1. Butterfly Dreams

2. Scattered Showers & Additions

3. Daily Designs & Sentiments

I have made lots of cards with the other two so I picked Daily Designs. There was also a twist to use the color combo of Spring Rain, Lavender Moon and white.

Well, this is my take on the challenge. Enjoy! Now I will say, "Good night"!

Stampin' Flybaby October Crafty Challenge #3

Well, it is cold, rainy and very windy. A cup of hot chocolate sounds so yummy! The Craft Challenge for this week was to make something "chocolate". It could be chocolate paper, chocolate yummyness, or whatever chocolate we could come up with to use. I have dark chocolate PTI ribbon & buttons as well as a cup of hot chocolate waiting to warm my insides. Want to share a cup with me?

2 quick pics

I was packing up some cards to take to the church bookstore and realized i hadn't uploaded these 2 to my blog. The photography is horrible but it is still dark outside and I'm in a rush.

The first card uses Father Knows Best. I know this is a CASE from the PTI gallery so, Thank You, Disaster1981 for the great inspiration. the second one uses PTI Butterfly Dreams (All Time Favorite set!)

Off to church, have a great day!

BethieJ's Challenge #2 & Princess Challenge-No Sentiment

Well, when time is short, sometimes you just need to multi-task. BethieJ's Challenge this week was to use one of these three sets: Peaceful Poinsettia, Tree Trimming Trio, or Up, Up and Away. I choose Tree Trimming Trio! I love the images in this set!

I also needed to complete Cheryl's Princess Challenge, to make a card without a sentiment. This was a hard one! The image in Tree Trimming Trio is large enough to stand by itself, so that is what I used.

My colors are Enchanted Evening, Fine Linen, and my tree is decorated with Raspberry Fizz w/ epoxy stickers on top.

Thanks for stopping by... Hope to see you again soon.

Princess Challenge- Huff on It!

Thank you Pam for a great challenge using a technique I haven't used in a really long time. Pam's Challenge was to color our stamps with markers and then "Huff" on them to moisten them before stamping. I used this technique on my background. I "huffed" on my vein stamps after I had colored them with Creamy Caramel markers by SU! The leaves themselves are stamped with versamark. I also used the Framed stamp set and the sentiment is from Falling Leaves.

Thanks, Pam!

BethieJ's Challenge #1

BethieJ has issued a challenge and this is a fun one! There are 3 PTI stamp sets chosen and we each get to decide which one of them we want to use. Well, I only have one of the sets so this was easy.

The set I used was Vintage Picnic. I have had this set for quite a while and have never used it so this is a double bonus! I also used the You're invited to DINNER from Warm Hospitality.

I am looking forward to seeing next week's 3 sets!
