Wow...it is almost Halloween!  Can't believe this month is flying by.  Gotta go buy some candy this week.  Hoping that we have lots of little visitors.


We have another challenge starting today over at Addicted to CAS.  Our theme for this challenge is Hero!  Love it! 

I dusted off an older stamp set I had and come up with this card...

Super cute little ones...took this opportunity to show off our girl power!  Yeah!

Looking forward to seeing what you come up with!

Addicted to CAS - Friends

We have another challenge starting today at Addicted to CAS!  Super fun topic...Friends!  This is the perfect topic for me as I try to send cards to my friends each month!  Always fun to get happy mail!


Here's my take on the challenge...

Super quick card since there is not much coloring.  Just a bit of shading and a few colors...but nothing better then snowmen selfie!

I stamped the sentiment on the bottom and on the inside it says "Warm the Heart".  I then added a bit of tone on tone snowflakes to some bright pink paper.

I then promptly sent this to my friend Barb!  Pink is her fav color and she is enjoying the snow at the moment!

Looking forward to seeing what you come up with!

Addicted to CAS - Mom

Another beautiful day in store for us today.  Looking forward to a bit of a picnic and some time at the beach.  Hope you have something fun planned too!

We have another challenge starting today at Addicted to CAS.  Just in time for Mother's Day.  Here's my take on the challenge....

This is a quick card I made with this sweet little super mom.  I colored her with Copics and popped her up on some foam tape.  I stamped and die cut the sentiment and also colored and popped up the sentiment for a bit of dimension.

I added the background splatters and done.

Looking forward to seeing what you come up with.

Less is More - Stripes

Enjoying the lovely weekend.  So nice to hang in the yard and enjoy the spring blooms.

We have another challenge starting over at Less is More!  Our theme for this week is Stripes!  I'm sure you have tons of great ideas for this theme, and we can't wait to see them.  Here's my take on the theme, looking forward to seeing what you come up with!

This is a super quick card.  I simply stamped my flags at the top of the card in rainbow colors.

Once that was done, I added the sentiment!

Done!

Here's a close up of the card.  One-layer and super simple!

Addicted to CAS - Smile

Such a beautiful intro to spring here.  Hope you are all experiencing sunshine as well.

I'm hosting our challenge over at Addicted to CAS, and for this challenge, I selected Smile as our theme.  We are always use some extra smiles in our life, so I thought this would be perfect!  Looking forward to seeing what you come up with.  Here's my take on the challenge...





I started by stamping my smiling monsters, using the masking technique.  I then colored them with Copic Markers and added my sentiment.  This is my friend Maria's favorite saying, so I think I will send this off to her!

I did pop up the main card base on foam tape and added a bit of black and white to ground the card.

Here's a close up of the card.

Looking forward to seeing what you come up with!

Less is More - Children

We have another challenge over at Less is More.  This is our last challenge before Christmas, so hope you can come over and join us.  We would love to see what you come up with.

Here's my take on the challenge.

I started by drawing a circle with pencil to create my sentiment circle.  I then stamped my "Thanks" sentiment and the stars.

I then stamped the background and the main image.  I colored the main image with copic markers.  I added a bit of foam tape to the back of the superhero for a bit of dimension.

I then added the sentiment at the bottom.

Here's a close up of the card.  You can see the dimension of the superhero.

Look forward to seeing what you come up with.

Addicted to CAS - Sihouette

Another nice day on the horizon, and I'm feeling better every day.  I'm going to try and talk my hubby to come out on the court with me next week...wish me luck!




We have another fun challenge starting over at Addicted to CAS! We have a terrific sponsor for this challenge...Stamplorations! You'll want to come on over and see if you can win a gift certificate for this terrific shop!



Here's my take on the theme...looking forward to seeing what you come up with!

This is a quick card.  I started off by die cutting the background scene in a dark grey color.  I then added a bit of distress ink around the edges.

I used distress ink to create my background clouds.  Then stamped the sentiment.

I added a few silver (I know some look red) stars around the sentiment as it looked a little empty without it!

Here's a close up view---and the stars look silver here :)

Come on and join us, we would love to see what you come up with!

Less is More - 3 Stamps

It has been a fun week of tennis...the husband is back on the tennis court, and he brought with him my mojo!  I'm back!  Thanks husband!

Today is a new challenge over at Less is More, come on over and join us.  This week's challenge is to use three stamps.  You can use the same stamps to stamp multiple images, but limit your design to three stamps.

Here is my take on the challenge, looking forward to see what you come up with!

This is a simple one layer card.  I started by stamping the sentiment. This allowed me to ensure I was able to center the sentiment.

I then stamped the little flowers in three different color inks in a circle. Then I added some green leaves.

Simple!





Supplies:

• Neenah Solar White Card Stock
• Avery Ellen Pigment Ink;  Fizz, Celery, Sugar Plum
• Your Next Stamp:  What Not Sentiments Four
• My Favorite Things Stamps:  Merci
