Paper Smooches Sparks Challenge - Butterflies

Hi Everyone! I hope you had a great Easter weekend! This week's Paper Smooches Sparks Challenge is all about....     Butterflies!!!   I was not only inspired by the butterfly theme but I also drew a little inspiration from the colors and the layout of the fun picture Kim chose for the week.   I used stamps from Whirligigs, Cuteasaurus plus Butterfly 1 Dies and Due Die 1. :)   Thanks for stopping by! I hope you can find time to play in the fun challenge!   Check out more inspiration from.... Jessica Davis Lori Tecler Savannah Oā€™Gwynn Nina Yang   ļ»æ

10 Minute Craft Dash #14

  I had an idea for a card and when I saw the current 10 minute craft dash it was a perfect fit! I pulled out all the stamps sets and paper I wanted to use and got my inks ready. 10 mintues went FAST but I was flying. :) I love stamping, I really do. My table was a mess and my hands were super inky (no time to clean, right?) but I did it. 9 mintues 34 seconds. Success.     All the "coloring" was done by inking the back of the stamps. A fun way to add quick color. :) All the stamps are from Lawn Fawn ( So Much to Say , Year Three  and Interlocking Backdrops ).ļ»æ

Runway Inspired Challenge #32

Hi Everyone! I've always enjoyed checking out the Runway Inspired Challenges but haven't had the chance to play until now...     The inspiration photo is so cool!     ļ»æ And here is my take... I didn't have any sparkly silver paper or embellishments but with the newest Paper Crafts call fresh in my mind I went out on a limb and used....foil! Ha! Fun stuff. I wrapped a piece of foil around a strip of card stock for some instant shine. :)   The stamps are Mini Blooms from Papertrey Ink (amaaazing set Maile!) and one of my all time favorites Interlocking Backdrops from Lawn Fawn. :)   Thanks for stopping by!ļ»æ

Paper Smooches Sparks Challenge - Cool Shades

Hi Everyone! Its the start of a new Paper Smooches Sparks Challenge ! This week its all about these fun colors...   (tangerine, deep orange, lime, lemon)   Here is my take...     I used Metropolisļ»æ to create this trendy city scene. Just a few quick tips... First, I masked off the bottom line of the city stamps so I could make the building appear taller. Second, I trimmed one of the buildings on the dark orange level to add a little variety to the scene.   Hope you join in the fun this week!   AND don't forget to check out the other Sparks DT cards...

ME Sketch Challenge #2

Hi Everyone! Before I dive back in to magazine submissions I thought it would be fun to stop and play in a challenge. I'm a BIG fan of Kryssi and Mama Elephant stamps so I decided to play with this sketch.   Here is what I came up with...     I used Trifecta and Good Times . Thanks for the challenge Kryssi! Here is LINK to the challenge if you'd like to play along. :)
