Tuesday Morning Sketches Challenge #736

Welcome to my blog, where I have
a new card to share with you each week for

Tuesday Morning Sketches 

 

 

Here is the sketch for this week:

 

 

 

And here's my card based on the sketch...

 

 When I first saw the sketch, my mind immediately said 3 trees.  But I'm never one to do the obvious and decided on 3 snowmen instead.  Besides, this Penny Black stamp is so cute.  I stamped the snowmen on a piece of printable glitter paper using Staz-on ink and used markers to color them.

 

Thanks so much for stopping by my blog.

Tuesday Morning Sketches Challenge #630

Welcome to my blog, where I have
a new card to share with you each week for

Tuesday Morning Sketches 

 

 

Here is this week's sketch:

 

 I flipped the sketch to the right and made this card.

I used a Tim Holtz stamp and did some layering.

The image was colored with markers and pencils.  I tried to capture the sparkle from a layer of Wink Of Stella on the circle section.  The  strips on each end are glitter paper.

This photo gives you a better idea of the way I popped each layer.

Slimline & Sketch Challenges at MFT

 Today I thought I'd share two cards that I made for current challenges at My Favorite Things.

 

The first is a slimline card designed for the Winter Scenes Slimline Challenge. 

The stamp set I used is from Sweet n Sassy.

*****

My second card follows the sketch at the 

Wednesday Sketch Challenge.  

 

 

I thought I'd keep this simple, used scraps that were already on the desk, and a sentiment stamp from MFT.

Send a Smile 4 Kids December Challenge

 

 The theme for the December Challenge at 

Send a Smile 4 Kids 

is Winter Cards 4 Kids

or Anything Goes 4 Kids.

 

 

 Here I used a retired CTMH stamp, Sizzix word dies, and MFT scalloped border dies with the scalloped edge removed.

I love the printable glitter paper from Wal-Mart.  It's great for printing digital images, die cutting, and coloring, if you are lucky enough to find some in the store.   Plus you get the glitter effect without the glitter rubbing off on everything.

 It would be great if you joined the fun at the

Send A Smile 4 Kids 

December Challenge.

Quilt Weather

When I was a kid, my brothers and I would hate when it was cold on Halloween.  It was so hard to wear a winter coat under our costumes.  The three of us walked from house to house looking like we were muscle bound sumo wrestlers.  I stuck to witch, gypsy, clown and hobo costumes.  A ballerina was totally out of the question!

Today is Halloween and it's cold!

In the spirit of keeping warm, I've made 2 quilt patterned cards to share with you.  It's hard to make just one!

Panda is a Stampin' Up stamp.

Snowman is a Tim Holtz Stampers Anonymous stamp.

 I love this combination of navy and, what CTMH calls, thistle. In fact, last year I found a sweatshirt in just these colors and immediately added it to my wardrobe, price be damned!  To me, they look both warm and rich together.

 My inspiration for these two cards came from the Fab 'n' Funky 500th Challenge Celebration and blog hop. 

Additional Challenges being entered: Get Creative Challenge #96 - Favorite Color Combo (navy and thistle); Simon Says Wednesday Challenge - AG; The House That Stamps Built Challenge 02820 - AG; As You Like It Challenge - Favorite Color to Pair with blue (thistle, it looks very regal to me and I am a Red Hat Queen); Crafty Catz Challenge #525 - All Dressed Up for Winter (The hat and scarf are paper pieced.); Just Us Girls Wild Card Challenge #560 - Word Dies; Allsorts Challenge Week #596 - For children or teens; Crafty Hazelnut's Christmas Challenge #514 - Anything Christmas Goes with option of something beginning with "H"  Hat
