Motivet Challenge Week 8

So I have been visiting my sister in Fort McMurray, AB for the last week and no trip would be complete without cardmaking!!!  So we both have made 1 so far and have colored lots more.   I brought all my Copics with me and so hard to not whip them out on the plane and start coloring.  Alas, flights were too short but that's fine!!  So here's my card for the Motivet Challenge Week 8.

Not using my normal editing program has made it a smidge challenging but I found a good online program that seems to have done the job!  Isn't Hilda just so cute?!!!

DH's Birthday Card

Thank goodness my DH doesn't have my blog.  hee hee This way I can post as his birthday is tomorrow and here is his birthday card today!  I did my first side step card, which you can find instructions for here and check out other samples at Splitcoast Stampers Gallery using "side step" as your search description.

The grass is a Magnolia stamp (hee hee), the rocks are from a rock wall that I cut out from a Magnolia stamp, the trees are Stampin' Up "Lovely As A Tree" and the 4-wheeler is from CTMH (thanks Cheri!).  Oh and the sentiment if from SU also.  I'm very happy with how it turned out and thank goodness cuz it took me a long time!

Stamps:  Magnolia, CTMH & SU
Paper: Bazzill
Embellishments:  Scrapper's Floss, Misc brads and Maya Road chipboard stars covered with Crackle gloss and corkboard paper.
Punches:  OMG I didn't use even one punch on this!!  Oh wait!  The little circles under the brown brads was Quickutz. 
Ink: Colored With Copics and Momento Ink

My Valentine's Card from my Momma

Isn't this just the CUTEST EVAH?!!  My mom sent this to me and my DH for Valentine's Day.  She even did the inside with some bg paper and little butterflies!!  I LOVE this card!  It has so many extra's on it.  The gems in the center of the heart and the heart charm are so sweet!  Her coloring is dang perfect too!  I got her hooked on Copics.  I'd say sorry but she loves them.  hee hee 

Thanks mom!! MWAH!!!

I WON I WON!

I am so excited!!  I just found out I won the Motivet challenge of 3 stamps for this card & sketch here. 

I would love to encourage you guys to join these challenges.  Their sketches make it easy to build a card and they only have about 30 - 40 entries a week!!  The chances of winning, or winning 2nd place is very very high!  2nd place is a random draw for 2 free stamps so it's anybody's game.

If you don't have a Motivet stamp, download the new cute kitty image right from their website (under Freebies on the l/h side) and join in. 

They are very generous and if you even comment on any post during the week, your name goes in for a random draw of 5 stamps.

*****************YES!  5 STAMPS!!*****************

I hope you'll play Week #6 challenge!  It's this sketch - cute or what?!!!
