For Make My Monday # 262

  Hello and welcome to my blog and to another DT card for the new            Make My Monday  Challenge. This time it's Fabrics or Textiles See my card below...

I used some very festive DSP Paper from my stash and found these sweet little embroidered felt Christmas embellishments! I missed 2 different papers for fun and backed my sentiment with gold thread and sheer polka dot ribbon. 

 I hope you will get a chance to join in and hope to see you in the gallery...

Bye for now..

For TSOT Sketch Challenge

 

 Hello and welcome! This post is for the new sketch challenge over at Try a Sketch on Tuesday. It's quite the unique sketch...take a look at the graphic below. 

   And here is what I did with the unique sketch ;) 

  I decided to focus on the "points" of the graphic and not necessarily the shape. So where the points would be, I placed the snowflakes. I had something different in mind for the card base at first, then I remembered the black musical DSP I have in my hoarding stash ;0 and used that. I di like the boldness of the black and white plus, I was in Hobby Lobby the other day and saw black ornaments and Christmas decor so I think that might be a color trend tis year...???  I did want to add a little color and found these fun felt Holly pieces and was just what I was looking for. 

Well, thanks for stopping bye and I hope you have a chance to join in our challenge this round. See you next time...

For Sunday Stamps Sketch Challenge

  Hello! Happy Fall and Happy Sunday! I do love Sunday's. My husband and I are busy with church most of the day but, there is a more laid back, restful feeling to the day. 

So, this post is for the new challenge over at Sunday Stamps Blog and this round it's a sketch challenge...kinda a fun one if I do say so myself ;)

 Coloring Blending, Stenciling and Stamping Oh My...LOL! And actually multi-layered stencils were used for this card. I had an idea in my head of what I wanted to make but, when I finished, I really liked the finished product! Here is a closer look and all products used are from Creative Worship Stamps .

 Thank you for stopping by and checking things out. Hope you stop by again soon! Bye for now!

Autumn - Harvest for Make My Monday

 

For TSOT Challenge #679

  Hello and welcome to my blog. My post is for the new sketch challenge over at Try A Sketch on Tuesday. This is a fun whimsy sketch...see the inspiration photo below...

  And here is my card...

 I used this fun "Doodily" stamp set from Creative Worship Stamps called Scribble Flowers. I really like the fun whimsy look of the set.

I kept the colors light and fun but you could use deeper jewel tones or an all monochromatic theme...

Thanks for stopping by to see what I made for the new challenge and I hope you will join in with us this challenge round! Bye for now..

Sparkles Monthly Challenge #192

  Hello and Welcome! It's time for a new monthly challenge over at           Sparkles Monthly Challenge.  The theme is #192 A Single Flower. Check out my card below and how I used a "single" flower to make my vintage look card.

 I do really like these Tim Holtz Wildflower Dies and all the different uses for them. They can be colored or used for a silhouette craft.  

 I used fun vintage look papers to back the daisy and I like how this card turned out. 

thanks for stopping by and checking things out, even if you are, AI bot:(

Bye for now...
