Hey There

Just stopping by with a quick card today.  Creative Challenge Club is a new Sketch Challenge blog.  I thought their sketch this week was too cute and had to play along.  I combined that with the Tic Tac Toe challenge at The Paper Players.  I combined Ribbon, Patterned Paper and Embossing.

 

 

 

The Timeless Talk stamp set seemed like the perfect combination for the Back to Black DSP.  I love how all the images in the stamp set look when stamped with Jet Black Stazon Ink.

 

I replaced the floral image in the sketch for one of the word bubbles from the Just Sayin' stamp set perfect cut with the coordinating framelits.

 

Thanks for stopping by.

Home Sweet Home #80

Happy May Day!!  I can't believe it is the first of May already.  It has been so gray and rainy here in Wisconsin.  It doesn't really feel like spring yet.  It could be worse - we could be getting snow like they are farther north.

 

 

I was inspired by the colors and the circle/polka dot shapes in this photo.  I love the Timeless Talk stamp set and it made an appearance here again today.  I donate a lot of my cards to Operation Write Home, so I am always on the hunt for stamps that are gender neutral or masculine.

 

The sentiment is from the Paper Pumpkin Welcome Kit.

DOstamper STARS Challenge #079

It's Thursday again - and almost the end of April - where has the month gone?  Time for a great Sketch Pad challenge from the DOstamper STARS.

 

 

For today's card I am again featuring the I Am Me Designer Series Paper.  The color inspiration for the card came from that paper as well .  I love the way Real Red, So Saffron and Basic Gray look together.

 

 

I used the Geometrical stamp set from the Occasions Catalog to stamp the triangles.  I then punched out the triangles using the Triangle Punch.  I slightly overlapped the triangles to create my "trim".

 

The bicycle image is from the Timeless Talk Stamp Set.  I think that image paired with these colors is very gender neutral.  I finished my card with two banners cut with the Banner Punch that was available during Sale-a-Bration.  If you didn't get one then, no worries, it will be in the upcoming 2014-15 catalog.

Timeless Talk Thank You

Well, I missed out on last Thursday's DOstamper STARS Challenge.  Why you may ask?  Because my husband was out of town for work and took our camera.  What's a blogging girl to do?  Well I did prepare a card because the sketch was great and I had to try a new stamp set that I just received - Timeless Talk.

Actually, I prepared three cards.  I loved how the images stamped in black paired with the Modern Medley DSP.  For a pop of color, I added some ribbon from the Sycamore Street ribbon pack (currently on Clearance).

 

Hope you enjoy these cards.  Thanks for stopping by.
