Challenge #9

Challenge #9, if you choose to participate, is to make a card from pieces stamped from Z3719 Make a Splash Stamp + Thin Cuts.  Here are the cards I made...

In this first card I colored the boots before I thought about how I was going to use them... I had a time finding paper to match!  So... some paper from my scrap bin!


In the second card, I used a stencil of clouds, and a die I had of a sun.  The phrase is from the stamp set.  I tried the idea of coloring around the die, and colored the inside of the boquet as well.

Can't wait to see what you do with yours!

Happy stamping!

Challenge #8

Challenge #8, if you choose to accept it, is to construct at least one card from the pieces you will receive that are stamped from D1925 A Million Little Things.

Here is the card I made...


I did not design this card... I copied it from Chris Franco, CTMH Consultant, at www.stampedblessings.com.

I colored the flowers using the light yellow and citrus blend tri-blend markers, as well as the dull green tri-blend marker.  The dots are in toffee ink, and it is matted on a kraft card base.  I think the flowers are coneflowers (echinacia) which come in a variety of colors.

Happy stamping!!

Layout and Challenge #7

The challenge for this week is to make a card from the items you are receiving in the mail... these are stamped pieces from the Stitched Together cardmaking workshop.  You also have a strip of the Stitched Together paper, and a piece of cardstack that coordinates with it.  Here is the card I made...


I used a white gel pen and a ruler to draw in the stitched background... I colored the thread spool with the Coral Blend  and Ice Blend tricolor markers.  Also colored the spool with the clear glitter brush.  I embellished with white dots from the black and white dots pack.

I thought the thread stuck out to far for what I wanted, so I cut it and placed it more under the spool... where the paper crunched is hidden by the needle.  (It is all taped on the back side to hold it together!). 

Here is the June layout...

Supplies:
B&T paper - Stitched Together
Cardstock - Sapphire, Mint, Peach, Sweet Leaf, White Daisy
Pattern is the Scrapbooking Creative Insider provided by CTMH




In your packet you will also have "dream" cut from sapphire, and some of the pieces from the Stitched Together Cardmaking workshop stamp set.  This layout is pretty busy, so embellish lightly according to how you intend to use it!

Happy stamping!!
