And Another One

This card was created as a thank you for my Longaberger demo. I know, she should be thanking me for placing an order, but I won a cute Woven Traditions bowl from her, and thought it would be nice to say 'thanks for picking me.'

Supplies
:
Stamps: Basket Full of Fun
Ink: Chocolate Chip
Cardstock: Soft Sky, Blue Bayou, Whisper White, Kraft
Accessories: Palette o'Prints DS paper, Watercolor Crayons, Aquapainter, Dimensionals

Oh, The Agony!

This blogger challenge thing is a BLAST! I am having so much fun creating my challenge cards that I am already done with my card for this week... I'm dying for you to see it, but I can't post until Friday. So, instead, I'll show you a few cards that I created over the weekend.

This is a belated birthday card for my brother, Ray. He loves old cars, so I thought this would be right up his alley.

Supplies
:
Stamps: Loads of Love
Ink: Basic Black, Real Red
Cardstock: Creamy Caramel, Real Red, Always Artichoke, Basic Black, Whisper White
Accessories: Watercolor Crayons, Vintage Brads, Rustic Retreat Ribbon, 1/2" circle punch, Cutter Kit, Aquapainter

Challenge Week 3 - Christmas in July

So... the blogger challenge for Week 3 is to create a Christmas themed card using non-traditional colors, but we can use any layout and any stamp set. Hmm... my first thought was to use an alpha and spell out M-E-R-R-Y in some funky color scheme... but then some uknown force took over, and I came up with a completely different idea.

Check back on Friday for my post... nothing says Christmas like the new 'In Colors' Soft Sky and Groovy Guava. Add a dash of Tempting Turquoise, a little Whisper White and a touch of Basic Black and your bells will be jingling!
