Just for You...

Good morning...I am posting a little late, but here now!

Tuesday brings sketch #104 at Try Stampin' on Tuesday

And it's their two year BIRTHDAY celebration as well.

Each entry into this weeks challenge will go into a draw for a PRIZE!

Below is our Sketch #104, so please play along with us this week.

I would love to see what you come up with and GOOD LUCK on the draw for the PRIZE!

My card is quick and simple, and love the bold colors of this paper

To make my card:

Started with A2 white cardstock base.  All solid colored cardtock from my stash

I used Designer Paper and butterfly element from an American Craft Soho Garden Kit

Which I purchased at Scapbook Steals - this kit has a lot of fun stuff included.

I used Cricut cartridge Elegant Edges, page 49 <Flrsh1-s> cut at 3" and 2"

Finishing touches:

Sentiment from Verve Stamps - Purely Sentimental and can be found HERE

I added  black brad to my Cricut cut piece and black licorice bakers twine bow

Thanks for stopping by today, but got to run now....

My father is having surgery this morning, but need to stop into work as well.

Have a most blessed Tuesday - Catch the Frenzy! - Karen

String of Pearls

The Songbird Challenges #3, String of Pearls with the The Paper Shelter

Your creation must feature some beautiful PEARLS.

 

This week, for our challenge the Design Team is using images from the The Paper Shelter

I colored the image in with my Copic markers:

E00, E08, E33, E35, G21, R02, R20, Y00, Y06, YR11, YR20, Colorless Blender

The Sentiment is from Verve Stamps, stamped in black ink.

Today starts a new week with Made Especially for You, week 1 Challenge:

Create a card for the theme of the week using a certain item or product.

 

This week - create anything goes Disney card.

Any card is welcomed, as long as it has a Disney element or character.

 

My favorite character if Goofy, but I was unable to find an image to use.

I settled on this pre-colored, Birthday Mickey Mouse, which has my favorite color, PURPLE!

 

 

Our Design Team members are using Verve stamps for the sentiment.

 

We would like to thank our wonderful sponsor this week...Verve Stamps

The randomly selected winner will receive a Verve stamp set of their choice.

 

What's your favorite Disney character? 

Why not create a card using your favorite character and play along this week.

I would love to see what you come up with.

For now, check out the rest of the Design Team inspiration.

 

Have a Great Monday - Happy Labor Day!
