Stampin Up, Pals Paper Arts #283


So, today is a color challenge.  I hope you are enjoying the new look and changes that have been made to the PPA challenge.   We will now have color and sketch challenges scheduled to alternate each week.

Here are todays colors:


I had a lot of fun with this.  I love this free set from the new SAB catalog.  I love even more that I get to choose free stuff during this time when I order for the new Occasions or any other current catalog.
So, I cut my Whisper White CS using a die, then used the same die to cut a piece of vellum.

I stamped my flowers on one side of the vellum, then colored them on the back side using my Blender pens, or you can use markers if you have them.  It gives a little different look. I covered my glued spots when I put them together with the clear dots.

By putting the die cut hello I left it open to many other uses. I think it will be a birthday card.  I love the Melon Mambo ribbon across the Mint Macaron.

Check on the rest of the teams cards HERE

I hope you enjoyed, thanks for stopping by.

Stampin up Pals Paper Arts Challenge # 264.

Wow, posts two days in a row! Go me! LOL.  This one is for the Pals challenge, I try to do it every week and I have news.
I HAVE BEEN SELECTED TO BE A TEAM MEMBER! I'm so excited!!!  My first card as team member goes up Sept 3rd, so be sure to come on over and cheer me on.

I'm having fun with black today I guess. And it goes so well with Pink, so we have Pink Pirouette, Basic black and Smoky Slate.

Here is the sketch for this week:

It's pretty simple, I just love the new Designer series paper stacks this year. Such cute designs, I love them all, but the text and this one with the tiny flowers are my favorite.

Just click on any item below to go to my store.

Stampin Up, Paper Players 246


I'm playing with the Paper Players again this week.  They vary the challenges so it's never the same thing.  This week it's a sketch challenge.  I did a pretty simple card using some new colors. Mostly Watermelon Wonder, and I added a black layer then the birthday candle layer. It's from the new 6x6 paper stack, I love the new size, you can do even more with it, but the designs are still scaled down for cards.
It's hard to see the sheen of the ribbon, but the 5/8" satin ribbon is so soft and pretty with a nice sheen on it. I debated making a bow over at the one side, but decided I wanted to do something else.  I used Black and Bermuda bay for the flowers, the black behind just to make it pop a bit. And stuck them together using the tiny dots, they do the job without raising them up more.

The Dimentionals are under the black to raise it up some.    My sentiment just seemed kind of lonely so I felt it needed something more. The circle did the trick.

I sure hope you enjoyed. If you would like to see everyone else's card or maybe even join in, go here:
The Watermelon Wonder and the paper stack are in the new catalog, so will not be available until June 2nd.

PAL's Paper Arts challenge #230



I you have come by looking for something new posted, I am so sorry.  I have had a setback on my road to recovery from my hip surgery and have not been able to sit at my desk and make anything.

Starting to do a bit better now, and I really wanted to play with the color challenge for PPA.
These colors are so perfect for Christmas and I do love making Christmas cards.
I hope you enjoy this one.  I have some ideas for tags that I may do pretty soon here too. So, come back soon.

Stampin Up, Mojo Monday 355



I am finally here with my Mojo Monday card for this week.  Going to Curves 3 times a week kinda cuts into my stamping time, especially monday.

Cute, cute sketch this week.  I kept it simple, but strangely enough I ended up using quite a few products on it.  I love the larger scallop on this edgelit and it worked perfect here.

So, my colors are: Whisper White, Baked Brown Sugar and Coastal Cabana.  For the bottom circle I  used my brayer to put ink on one side of my embossing folder, then laid down my circle and embossed as usual.  I think it gave it a bit of a different look then if I'd just put another layer of brown.


I had to stamp the sentiment and punch out using the large oval punch to cover the sentiment on this stamp.  One of my stamp customers who comes to class with me is in the hosp. So I needed something for her, loving the sequins, they add just a little bling and there are a ton of them in this box. I only wish there were more colors available. These are one of the Incolor sets.

I hope you enjoy and I was able to give you some ideas of your own.
BTW, until the end of this month, SU is having a special on the Designer Series Paper, buy 3 packs and get one free.   It's a great deal and will give you plenty of DSP to last a long time.




Also, if you haven't tried Paper Pumpkin, please do! SU has really amped up their game with it. I am thrilled with every month. This month is awesome, gorgeous boxes, beautiful ribbon and way more.

Stampin Up, Mojo Monday 353


I missed last week, just didn't have the time. But here I am for this week. For some reason gray and pink kept going through my head, I hadn't used those for a while.

To get the 2 color sentiment piece from the Oh My Goodies stamp set, I stamped once in each color and cut the gray out, putting it over the Strawberry Slush.

I just love that cute little border stamped onto the Smoky Slate, peeking out.

I hope you enjoy. Have a great week.

Mojo Monday 307, Stampin UP Gratitude

Good morning.  It a  hot, humid morning here in the AZ desert. We had quite the round of storms go through last night. They went on for hours, lightening coming from several directions. It was quite the show, we turned out the lights and just watched through the french doors. 

This weeks sketch is really different and was a challenge and fun.  Another one I'll put in the OWH box when I send it this week.
I started out thinking black and white with a pop of red, but changed my mind. I don't use fall colors enough, they just are not my favorite, but I love how this came out. Sometimes it really works out to challenge yourself to get outside your comfort zone.

Colors:
Very Vanilla
Tangerine Tango
Soft Suede

Supplies:
Harvest of Thanks Stamp set (from the Holiday Catalog)
Venetian Romance DSP  130144
Bitty Banners Framelits 129267
Deco Labels Framelits   130102
Early Expresso 1/8" Taffeta Ribbon 119959

And here is this weeks sketch, go ahead, give it a try.
Fall is fast approaching, and I can't wait for the cooler weather, meanwhile I'll just keep making cards that send my thoughts that way.
Thanks for stopping by, I'd love to hear what you think, are fall colors favorites of yours? Or?
