SCS Challenge

After viewing Laurel's end result to the SCS Challenge I thought I might want to try it out. The idea was to make cuts in a 6" x 6" double sided bg paper and use it for 4 cards. I didn't want to compete but I figured 4 easy cards in a short amount of time. Ya! Right!! What a joke!! I have learned my lesson now! I need to "think" and "plan" before I sit down and do cards. That's just the way I work. 4 freakin' hours later!! Or more!! Holi cow bob! And I'm not exactly thrilled about the end result but I will use them. I think I'll stick to just sketches for 1 card at a time for awhile yet. LOL!

The only thing I have to tell you about is on this polar bear card I did fun flock the bear and his scarf so he looks a little faded but so cute and cuddly IRL.

Thanks

I made this card for my sister. Isn't it cute? This is the 3rd card this week I've used the Basic Grey background for. I just love the swirls and green gems (also which Simone gave me). I have no idea where the stamp is from but I'm pretty sure Laurel sent me the image. Her and Sheri have sent me so many images (they are sooo good to me!) that I sometimes get them mixed up as to who sent me what. Between the 2 of them and Simone, they are all soooo good to me!!

Flower Girl

I think this is a Sugar Nellie image and it was sent from Laurel. I colored with my Copics and the rest is pretty basic. Flowers, gems and a bit of paper piercing. The bg paper from Basic Grey (love their paper) that my sister gave me on the weekend. The gems on the brown flower are suppose to be dew drops but I might take them off or add more. What's your thoughts?

Get Well Card

I got another card, I got another card!! Is it ever cute!! I love the die cut bandaid, the gems, the color. Nice and pink and bright. Just what the doctor ordered! LOL!! Thanks for thinking of me Ralfie!!!

Witchybella

Annnnnd another witchybella card! This one took me f-o-r-e-v-a-h!! I used silver embroidery thread to make the web that she and her pets are hanging in. It was fun but phew!! - Lots of work! I cut the front card with my nestabilities straight through and put bg paper on the inside to show through. I'm going to try and get it on Bellaholics homepage site for the month of October. If I have to be home this week I will make myself productive! Wish me luck!! Or vote for me!! :)

Leaning Tower of Stella

My sister just gave me my first Stella just because she's sweet!!! I made this for my step-daughter's birthday ... I don't think she subscribes to my blog....I'd be surprised if she did .... I hope she doesn't. LOL!! My sister gave me the bg paper also (she's just the BEST!), which I have colored 4 more images for!! I used Stickles everywhere and Liquid Applique for the icing. This one took me awhile - I think cuz I was trying to get more creative. Trina's Timeless Treasures blog really helped. I cased, what I later found out to be, Challenge #13. I love her stuff! Once again, looks better IRL!! :)
