C.R.A.F.T. Challenge #76

Happy day before Friday, Friends!
For this week's challenge we have a colour Inspiration:

Our challege is sponsored by Stef aka "Glitterbabe"
http://glitterbabesart.blogspot.com/

One lucky winner can choose 2 free digi's from the shop.
Here is my DT card for this week:
This cute little girl is my very first stamp from The Greeting Farm - a goodie from one of my Stampin' Sisters, Priscilla.  Thanks again, my "Sis-tah!"
I did not have any ready made flowers to match this color scheme, so I made the flowers using my daisy & birch leaf punches.
Here is a view of my card with the tag insert removed.
I used my stubby stamps from Judith for the tri-fold card background.

The tag insert opens & has plenty of space to stamp another sentiment
or write a little note within.
 This started out as a Trifold Card, but ended up being a little more than intended... I have a tendency to add on things, or cut, tear & completely change my original project ideas.  Sometimes, if I really don't like the outcome, I'll rip the entire thing apart & start over! 

Anywho, I've also created a tag/card to insert into the Trifold.  And guess what?  I actually made a tutorial!  Woo-hoo!  I'll be honest, most of the time I just measure & cut & keep on going.... I don't often make tutorials or templates, although I know I really ought to.  Linda, my sis-in-law, crafting partner & enabling buddy, always asks (more like "nags" - haha! wink!) about making templates for my projects. This one's for you, Linda! Ta-da!

I hope you'll join us at The C.R.A.F.T. Challenge! My DT mates & I look forward to seeing your wonderful creations!

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. So, whenever I have very small scraps of paper I punch them with my floral punches & store them in a box for future use. It's very convenient for me to have the pieces already punched too. Then, whenever I get bored or often while I watch TV, I "form" the flowers & store them away so that they're ready when I need them. This is my box o...

A Monochromatic Floral-Shabby Twisted Sketch with Wings!

Hah! Try saying that 10 times! LOL It was so hot outside today - 97 degrees.  Ugh!  I thought I'd jump in the pool to cool off, but even the pool was too hot!  Seriously, there is such a thing... So, I spent most of the day in the comfort of our air conditioned craft room.  Here is my hot summer day creation :   I love the theme for this card, "A Monochromatic Floral-Shabby Twisted Sketch with Wings!"  which is a combination of a few different challenges Here is the inside of the card, also a pop-up, although I was not able to get a better picture...  Look at the little butterflies dangling on the twine! All of the "designer paper" for this card is hand stamped by MOI - I so rarely ever use printed designer paper because I love, love creating my own! On this card I used "Fabulous Flourishes" by Tim Holtz, "Documentary" by Prima , which were stamped in Antique Linen Distress Ink and Stampin' Up! Soft Suede .  All of the flowers are a...
