Two Challenges in One!

Hello all! I am doing something a little different this go around. I have created a card for two challenges:



The Stamping Boutique is the sponsor for this week's challenge.  Check out the lovely prize the lucky winner will receive...


Colour Create Challenge #39
The theme this week is RED, BLACK and OFF WHITE

Here is the inspirational picture...


This challenge is sponsored by Whimsy Stamps, and Denise is so kindly offering the winner a $15 gift Certificate!



And here's my creation....

Creative Ingredients:
Paper: Kaiser Craft, Black Cardstock, Red Cardstock, Off White Cardstock
Stamps: "Oh Baby!" - by Elisabeth Bell for SCACD, Stampin' Up! Vintage Labels
Ink: Archival Ink - Jet Black
Tools: Martha Stewart Lattice, Nestabilities Ovals and Scallop Ovals, Sizzlets Small Leaves, Prima Flowers
Embellishments: Viva Decor Pearl Pen - Cream, Stickles Diamond, Crystal Effects.

Again,  I've used the stamp "Oh Baby" - by Elisabeth Bell for SCACD.  I just could not resist her cuteness! This was card a fun card to make... I never realized how much easier it is to create a card with a sketch and a theme. Well, duh! It just makes too much sense. LOL!

Thanks for stopping by & I hope you've enjoyed my creation for the day. Please leave me a comment to let me know you've stopped by & do come back to visit again! Have a great day!

Season's Change

Welcome back, Friends!  Come join me this week for Stamptacular Sunday Challenge #78 - "Season's Change!" This week's challenge is to create a card or project using ONLY colors of Fall!   Oooh, how pretty, huh?! Our SPONSOR this week is  Magnolialicious Our lucky winner's PRIZE:  Here is my DT creation for this week's AWESOME challenge theme.... An inside view of the card, and custom envelope/box. All of the flowers on this card are handmade. I know, you're probably thinking, "oh what a lot of work!"  Actually, it really is not. I use paper punches to create the flowers and leaves.
