an oldie but a goodie

This is one of the first House Mouse stamps that I bought about 5 years ago. I used it to create this card for 3 challenges

House Mouse Challenge #42-you gotta have friendship
An Oldie but a Goodie #5-distressing
Stamptacular Sunday #84-DT Inspiration-I used the sketch by Cheri

All of the stamps are Stampabilities. I colored the image with Copic markers. I distressed the papers by sponging brown ink on the edges. I ran the blue panel through the Cuttlebug folder Alegro and sponged it with brown ink also. I added the brown strips and dark pearls. Hope that everyone is having a great week and thanks for stopping by!

Cinema Saturday #100-Pride and Predjudice

I had to create a card for this challenge. Congratulations to Brooke and Sankari for celebrating their 100th Cinema Saturday Challenge. They started with Pride and Predjudice and everyone voted for it to be their 100th challenge too! I have to admit that I am not a big Jane Austen fan. I know, not very womanly of me! My sister is though, does that count? I am a big romantic though and I love happy endings! I watched the 2005 version with Kierra Knightly. My card is inspired by the happy ending where Elizabeth realizes that she loves Mr. Darcy. I love the scene where he comes out of the fog and the very end.

I rubbed rose ink on a glossy panel and backed it with black. I stamped the man (Tim Holtz) the lady (Hot off the Press) the swirls (Scrappy Cat) and the saying (Hampton Art) with black Stazon ink. The requirement is to add a touch of lace which I did for the collar of her dress. Thanks for stopping by!

a baby shower card in non traditional colors

My daughter needed a baby shower card today and I wanted to enter the Play Date Challenge #54-terra cotta, celery and white so I decided to make one using those colors. I didn't turn out too bad! The stamp is Penny Black colored with Copic markers. The saying is Stampendous. I cut the butterflies with my Cuttlebug and while doing so, I broke my C panel:( I ran the terra cotta panels through the flower Cuttlebug folder and added pearls. I am also entering into the One Stop Craft Challenge #105-embossing and I used the sketch at Stampin for the Weekend #50-a sketch and add a butterfly. Have a great day and thanks for stopping by!

I remembered how...

to make a shaker box! It has been ages since I have made one! I have created this card for 3 challenges.

Midnight Madness Sketch Challenge #78
Allsorts Challenge #76-color challenge-cream, gold and a touch of red
Creative Inspiration #85-Shake it! Make a shaker card

The deer is gold embossed and it is StampinUp. The saying is Verve. I kind of wish that I had gold embossed it but I am too lazy to change it! The flowers and leave are Quikutz cut with the Cuttlebug with brads in the middles. I wound gold floss around the shaker box. The shaker box is filled with gold sparkles. This was fun to make, you ought to try it! Thanks for stopping by!
