Get Well Soon!

I love a sketch challenge! This was another tough one for me but I wanted to join the fun at Christian Card Makers. My card will also be added to the June  month long challenge at Christian Card Markers. We have been challenged to create  Encouragement, Get Well and Thinking of you cards for both men and women. The cards will be going to one of the  group members who has a church card ministry. This stamp set is from Sweet 'n Sassy called " Get Well Critters " Thanks for stopping by for a closer look! I'm sharing my card with the following: Simon Wednesday Challenge:  Emboss It  Brown Sugar Challenge:  #255 Anything Goes Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps:  Wonderful Wednesday Challenge    Word Art Wednesday:  Anything Goes #286 - 287

Sweet 'n Sassy - Sweet Stop Sketch 168

This week's Sweet Stop Sketch has a spin - Fun with Numbers.  The sketch we were asked to follow is below: Here's what I came up with using Sweet 'n Sassy's Timeless Classic set: Masculine cards are usually hard for me, but with this vintage auto set they are easy!  All of the images in this set are so perfect for the vintage auto buff in your family. The base panel was dry embossed with a Cuttlebug numbers embossing folder.  Additional numbers came from the Basic Grey paper pack "Life of the Party".  The image was stamped with Memento ink and nothing else is really needed.  Love that!  I added some baker's twine, distressed edges, sponging and a few dewdrops to finish the card. This also qualifies for this week's Tuesday Alchemy challenge #24 - "Very Vintage" Thanks for stopping by to take a look!

The Sweet Stop Sketch #163

This week's Sweet Stop Sketch has a twist to use texture.  Here's the sketch we were asked to use: Here's what I came up with using Sweet 'n Sassy's Psalm 23 stamp: I used the following to include texture on my card:  distressing, machine stitching, dry embossing and buttons.  I really had fun putting this together and I'm pleased with the results.  I haven't dry embossed on designer then sponged for awhile.  I really like the effect (and texture) that it provides plus it's so easy! Thanks for stopping by to take a closer look!  Have a great evening.

Sweet 'n Sassy

Happy Saturday!  I hope everyone is having a great weekend.  It was a beautiful, sunny day here in Anchorage.  I actually hung out my laundry and washed a couple of windows. Of course, tonight I am in my craft room playing!  This sweet Thank You card uses the Sweet 'n Sassy digital image " Bluebird ".  I had so much fun coloring and assembling this card!  I really wanted the "cool colors" to pop on the white base.  All of the embossing was done with Cuttlebug and Sizzix emboss folders.  A couple of prima flowers were added with Stampin' Up!  rhinestones in the center.  The digital image was colored with Prismacolor pencils and baby oil.  Stickles were added to the flower centers of the image.  The sentiment is from an older Close to My Heart set "For Every Occasion".  I am using this week's My Favorite Things Sketch as well. Challenge for which I am submitting this card: My Favorite Things sketch Sweet '...

The Sweet Stop: SSS161

I'm back with a second post tonight!  I am taking advantage while the mojo is flowing. :) This week's sketch over on the Sweet Stop blog is really fun and versatile. I turned the sketch horizontally for my version.  Since Father's Day is just around the corner, I used the new Sweet 'n Sassy set " Timeless Classic " by Dina Kowal.  This set is full of images which are perfect for my uncle who is a collector of antique auto's. Here's what I came up with: The base cardstock is Stampin' Up! Basic Grey and the designer paper is Frances Meyer.  I used my new Paper Studio star embossing folder for the circle panel.  The circles were cut out using Spellbinder Nestibilities.  I colored the vintage car with Copic Marker Buttercup Yellow.  I added a few metal "screw" brads to finish off the masculine look! Here's a look at the entire set and I've included the store link above. Thanks for stopping by for a closer lo...
