For the month of March, our sponsor is Sunny Studio Stamps. They will be giving our winner a $30 gift certificate for their online store. Thank you Sunny Studio Stamps for your generosity.

Our challenge this month is

CRITTERS ~ REAL OR IMAGINARY

Here's my card

For my card, I used Sunny Studio Stamps' Lovable Llama stamp set and Lovable Llama die set. I stamped the cute llama and party hat with Memento Tuxedo Black ink on white cardstock. I added color with Ohuhu markers - E194, Y488, YG020, YG0404 and die cut the images. I die cut a circle with a circle die from cream cardstock to help separate the llama from the starred patterned paper. The sentiment uses Papertrey Ink's Keep It Simple: Birthday stamp set. I adhered the patterned paper to a cream A2 card base and glued the sentiment strip, llama and party hat and circle in place to complete my card.

We'd love to see your cards with CRITTERS ~ REAL OR IMAGINARY in our gallery.

Addicted to CAS ~ Challenge #278

Hey Friends! Time for a new challenge at Addicted to CAS. It's my turn to be host and I chose

Here's my card

When I chose this Code Word, I don't recall if I had a plan. So, I had to look through my collection of stencils for some inspiration. I pulled this stencil by Lawn Fawn, called String of Lights Background that I received as part of Scrapbook & Cards Today's Crop & Create Delivered Fall 2024 event. I used the stencil and pieces of post-it tape to try to keep the colors separate. I should invest in tiny ink blending brushes so that I'll have better control of where the color goes. I used distress inks - picked raspberry, spiced marmalade, mustard seed, mowed lawn, mermaid lagoon and wilted violet for the lights and twisted citron for the foliage and weathered wood for the string, all applied with oval ink blending brushes. I retrospect, perhaps my string of lights is a bit high. It might have looked better a little lower down. Oh well. For the sentiment, I used Scrapbook & Cards Today's Jolly Holiday stamp set from their July 2024 event along with silver embossing powder. I adhered the A2 panel to a A2 white card base to complete my card.

We'd love to see which stencils you used and how you used them in our gallery this fortnight.

Try A Sketch On Tuesday ~ Challenge #665

 Hi Crafty Friends! There is a new challenge starting now at Try A Sketch On Tuesday. Here's the sketch

Here's my take on the sketch

For my card, I started with Taylored Expressions' Be U-nicorn stamp set. I stamped the adorable unicorn on white cardstock and added color with Ohuhu markers - E194, E293, MG011, R192, V891, Y295 and Copic markers BG10, C1, YG11. I trimmed the cardstock so that it would fit behind the 'polaroid' frame. I die cut the 'polaroid' frame using a Lawn Fawn's Say Cheese, Again die. The unicorn panel looks too stark so I lightly ink blended Tumbeld Glass distress ink along the edges with an oval ink blending brush. On a white A2 card panel, I added the clouds along the right edge using Simon Says STAMP's Cloud for Days stencil and distress inks - picked raspberry, spiced marmalade, mustard seed, mowed lawn, mermaid lagoon, tumbled glass. I positioned the frame and applied more distress ink to the right side of the frame aligned with the previously stencilled clouds. To the left side of the card, I used my scoring tool and added vertical lines. I stamped the sentiment from the same TE stamp set to the bottom of the 'polaroid' frame. I adhered everything in place and then adhered it to a white A2 card base to complete my card.

We'd love to see how you're inspired by our sketch. Please add your cards to our gallery.

Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challenge #619

Happy Monday! Time for a new challenge at Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challenge. Here's our sketch for this challenge.

Here's my card

For my card, I made a mini-slimline that measures 3 1/2" x 6". Instead of strips, I went for polka dots. I used Wendy Vecchi's Polka Dotty stencil with tumbled glass, cracked pistachio, peacock feathers and mermaid lagoon distress inks applied randomly with oval ink blending brushes on white cardstock. I removed the stencil and lightly ink blended tumbled glass distress ink over the entire panel. For the sentiment, I used Papertrey Ink's Keep It Simple: Thank You stamp set and a scrap of green cardstock. I cut the sentiment strip with double fish-tail ends. For the flower and leaves, I used Paper Smooches' Flowers 2 die set and scraps of cardstcok. I adhered the elements to the panel and adhered the panel to a white 3 1/2" x 6" card base to complete my card.

We'd love to see how you're inspired by our sketch.

AAA Cards ~ Challenge #285

Some signs of Spring here in the Pacific Northwest. The crocus and snowdrop flowers have started to appear. I'll definitely take that instead of the piles of snow back east! We have a new challenge at AAA Cards.

Here's my card

For my card, I used the floating circle technique. I cut strips of cardstock, that I felt were Spring colors, using the Optional twist of the challenge. I cut a thin piece of cardstock - about 1/8" wide, as a spacer. I used it to position the larger strips which varied slightly in width. I glued the strips in place on a piece of acetate. I placed the spacer between strips to maintain a consistent gap between the colored strips. Using a Sizzix circle die, I die cut the acetate. It took several passes with my Big Shot, with shims. At the end, I had to trim some edges with scissors. I placed some dimensional adhesive behind the strips, so they stayed hidden and adhered it to a white A2 cardbase. I die cut the sentiment and shadow using Simon Says STAMPS' Script Thanks die. I glued the pieces together and adhered it in place to complete my card. 

We'd love to see your Clean and Simple cards in our gallery.

Die Cut Divas ~ Shaking with Hero Arts in February

It's the final day of our February Challenge at Die Cut Divas. Our sponsor this month is Hero Arts. They will be giving our winner a $25 gift card to their store. Thank you Hero Arts.

Our challenge for February is

SHAKER CARDS

Here's my shaker card

I started with Hero Arts' Party Confetti stencil that I received as part of the Crop & Create Delivered Fall 2022 kit. I added color somewhat randomly with distress inks - picked raspberry, abandoned coral, spiced marmalade, mustard seed, cracked pistachio, broken china applied with oval ink blending brushes. I used Recollections' Specialty Polyester Glitter - Confetti for my shaker bits. I die cut the opening using the die from Hero Arts' Yay! Birthday Bundle that was also part of the Crop & Create Delivered Fall 2022 kit. For the shaker, I created a little pouch, larger than the opening, using packaging and double-sided tape. I placed some of the shaker bits in the pouch and closed it with double-sided tape. I prefer to use this method to create a shaker card because I have lots of packaging and I find that dimensional adhesive can be more expensive to use. 

You have until 9pm Pacific Time to get your shaker card into our gallery! We'd love to see it there!

Addicted to Stamps and More! Challenge #487

Hey Friends! We have a new challenge starting at Addicted to Stamps and More! For the next fortnight, our challenge will be

Here's my card

I took part in last July's Scrapbook and Card's Today Jolly Holiday virtual event. As part of the kit we received, were the supplies I used to create my card. I started with a light pink A2 card panel. I used the two part layering stencils we received with distress inks - mowed lawn and candied apple applied with oval ink blending brushes. For the holly and berries, I used some of the dies we received in our kit. I die cut a circle from white cardstock using a Sizzix circle die. I stamped the "merry" using Concord & 9's parsley ink onto the circle. I stamped the "christmas" using Concord & 9's poppy ink on a scrap of white cardstock and die cut the sentiment. All the stamps and dies were part of the kit. I decided to trim the pink panel slightly so that a thin white mat would show. I glued the pieces in place and adhered the panel to a white A2 card base to complete my card.

We'd love to see your Christmas cards in our gallery. It's not to early to start!

Here's my card

For those who know me, I'm a kitty person. However, I just couldn't resist this cute image from Impression Obsession's Love Pup stamp set. I stamped this adorable pup with Memento Tuxedo Black ink on white cardstock. I added color with Ohuhu markers E371, E761, RV194, YG040. I die cut the white cardstock with a My Favorite Things' Inside & Out Stitched Rectangle STAX die. The sentiment is from Simon Says STAMP's Handwritten Sentiments. I adhered the white focal die cut to a white A2 cardbase with double-sided tape to complete my card.

Try A Sketch On Tuesday ~ Challenge #664

So glad the cold spell is over, well, for now. Although it makes for great crafting indoors, it's also so nice to get outside and see the sun. It's back to rain, more rain and even more rain! LOL!

If you're looking for some inspiration, we have a new challenge starting at Try A Sketch On Tuesday. Here's the sketch

Here's my card

I admit it. This one was tough for me. I felt like the sketch was like a flashlight shining on something. Then I remembered the Paper Smooches' Stamp set called A Blessed Christmas. I cut a template for the "light" areas using some printer paper and cut some yellow cardstock using my template. I heat embossed the Holy star using gold embossing powder. I stamped the image of the cradle and Mary and is that Joseph or a wise man?  I decided on some mid-gray cardstock for the background and heat embossed the sentiment from the same stamp set, this time with silver embossing powder. I glued the "light" areas in place and adhered the A2 card panel to a white A2 card base to complete my card.

We'd love to see how you were inspired by our sketch in our gallery.

Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challenge #617

Happy Family Day to those in only five provinces in Canada, celebrating with a day off!  For everyone else, Happy Monday! We have a new challenge starting at Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challenge. Here's the sketch

Here's my card

This was a tough sketch for me. All I could see what Santa's belly - LOL! I looked through some of my supplies looking for a mandela-type stamp or stencil. I settled on Simon Says STAMP's Star Medallion stencil. I added bright colors using distress inks - candied apple, picked raspberry, mustard seed, spiced marmalade, abandoned coral applied with oval ink blending brushes. To cut the edge of the medallion, I dusted off my Creative Memories Custom Cutting System - the large circle and blades. I chose to adhere the partial medallion to a bright red A2 card panel. I stamped the sentiment using Simon Says STAMP's Bouquet of Thanks stamp set and Gina K Design's Soft Stone ink. For the three circle embellishments, I used a regular hole punch and some silver glitter paper. I adhred the red panel to a white A2 cardbase to complete my card.

We'd love to see what you did with our sketch in our gallery.

AAA Cards ~ Challenge #284

Looking for a clean and simple card challenge? We have one starting at AAA Cards. For the next fortnight, it's a sketch challenge.

Here's my card

For my card, I used the images from Gerda Steiner Design's You Rock stamp set. I had to mask a little so that the three rocks appeared close to one another. I stamped them with Memento Tuxedo Black ink and added color with Ohuhu markers BG042, G177, R588, YG020, YG040 and Copic markers C5 and E50. I stamped the sentiment using the same stamp set. To complete my card, I adhered the A2 white panel to a white A2 card base with double-sided tape.

It's time for a new challenge at Addicted to Stamps and More! For the next fortnight, our challenge will be 

Our Make Your Mark challenge expects you to make a mark - with pens, markers, inks, paints, chalks, sprays. You get the idea!

Here's my card

For my card, I started by randomly ink blending on an A2 panel of 100 lb bristol with distress inks - bundled sage, scattered straw, pumice stone. I spritzed the panel with a little water for some added detail. When the panel was dry, I stamped the flower using Altenew's Build-A-Flower: Cornflower Layering stamp set. To add color to the flower, I smooshed some distress inks - blueprint sketch, chipped sapphire, mowed lawn, and picked the ink with a wet paint brush. The sentiment uses Simon Says STAMP's Lots of Thanks stamp set. I trimmed the panel slightly and matted with an A2 panel of black cardstock. To complete my card, I adhered the panel to a white A2 card base.

We'd love to see how you Made A Mark to create a card in our gallery.

Die Cut Divas ~Shaking It Up with Hero Arts

Hello Crafty Friends! The current challenge at Die Cut Divas is a fun one. We're shaking it up as our challenge is

MAKE A SHAKER CARD

Our sponsor this month is Hero Arts. They will be giving our winner a $25 gift card. Thank you Hero Arts for your generosity and for supporting paper crafters.

Here's my shaker card

For the shaker part, I used some plastic packaging and made a little pocket, approximately 2 1/2" square. I used double sided tape to close the edges but left one edge open, so that I could add the sequins. After I added the sequins, I closed the final edge, again with double sided tape. For the card front, I die cut using Hero Arts Looking Glass Green House dies. I die cut the window from a dark gray and the sprigs of flowers using white cardstock. I added color to the sprigs with Concord & 9's inks - grapefruit, watermelon, wheat, buttercup, marmalade, parsley. I glued the sprigs to the back of the window. 

Here's a close-up of the window.

For the main panel, I started with a light gray A2 card panel and added pumice stone distress ink over a My Favorite Things' Mix-ables Brick Wall stencil with an oval ink blending brush. I die cut a square, a little smaller than the window panel with a square die. This allowed me to adhere the window in place with double-sided tape. I adhered the panel to a white A2 card base to complete my card. I left my card without a sentiment. I could add one later or leave it the way it is. 

We'd love to see your shaker cards in our gallery.

Yesterday, February 7th, was Send A Friend A Card Day. It's not too late. What a great way to keep in touch with friends, brighten someone's day, send a smile to a friend. Here's my card.

This was meant to be a one-layer card and guess who had some ink on a finger and left a smudge on the panel - yup, me! Ok, backing up a bit. I stamped this adorable image of Winnie the Pooh and his faithful friend Piglet, using Unity Stamps' Winnie the Pooh How Do You Spell Love? stamp set with Memento Tuxedo Black ink on a white A2 card panel. I added color with Ohuhu markers - G191, G289, R192, RV194, Y691, Y696 and Copic marker RV04. To hide the smudge, I die cut the panel using a My Favorite Things' Stitched Square STAX die. I adhered it to a white A2 note card and stamped the sentiment using the same stamp set to complete my card.

Try A Sketch on Tuesday ~ Challenge #663

Happy Tuesday! There is a new challenge starting at Try A Sketch On Tuesday. Here's the sketch.

Here's my take on the sketch

For my card, I started with Scrapbook & Cards Today's Change the World stamp and die set that I received as part of my Crop & Create Delivered October 2021 kit. I stamped and heat embossed with white embossing powder the image and added color with distress inks - picked raspberry, abandoned coral, fossilized amber, twisted citron, peacock feathers, applied with oval ink blending brushes. I chose the colors that matched the patterned papers I chose from a paper pad. I die cut the image with the coordinating die. I cut the strips to roughly 7/16". I glued the strips in place on a light gray A2 card panel and then glued the focal image in place. I heat embossed the sentiment from the same stamp set, also with white embossing powder on a strip of cardstock. I trimmed the sentiment strip and glued it in place. To complete my card, I adhered the A2 panel to a white A2 card base.

We'd love to see how you're inspired by our sketch in our gallery.

Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challenge #615

Happy Monday! It's time for a new challenge at Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challenge. Here's our sketch

Here's my card

Sometimes, things just don't go according to plan. I started with a white A2 card panel and intended to stencil the bloom in the upper left corner using Simon Says STAMP's Bouquet of Roses stencil with distress inks (mermaid lagoon, lucky clover) applied with oval ink blending brushes. Well, I guess, I didn't do a good job of masking the area and I ended up with ink where I had not intended it. So, I decided to fussy cut it and adhere it to a white A2 card base. Keeping with the rose theme, I used Paper Smooches' Roses die set which came with the flower and the leaves. I chose to ink blend some white cardstock with the same two distress inks and die cut from that. I was going to leave the inlaid parts white but the contrast was too extreme so I lightly ink blended those parts (after I glued them in place, of course)! For the sentiment, I used Papertrey Ink's Keep It Simple: Thank You stamp set with white embossing powder on a scrap of green cardstock, which I trimmed to a sentiment strip. I glued the various elements in place to complete my card.

We'd love to see how you're inspired by our sketch, in our gallery.

It's time for a new challenge at AAA Cards. Our challenge for the next two weeks is a color challenge. 

Here's my card

For my one-layer card, I started with a white A2 card base, Pink & Main's Mask It Circle stencil and my Wendy Vecchi's Make Art STAY-tion. I positioned the stencil on the front of the card base using the magnets of the Make Art STAY-tion. I then positioned the various sections of Simon Says STAMP's Holiday Horizon stencil and added color with distress inks - bundled sage, hickory smoke, and Concord & 9's Dove inks applied with oval ink blending brushes. For the sentiment, I stamped using a stamp from Simon Says STAMP's Bouquet of Thanks stamp set.

We'd love to see your cards in our gallery. Please remember that this is a clean and simple challenge.

Our challenge for this month was to 

USE SOMETHING NEW

Here's my card

For my card, I used Whimsy Stamp's Let's Party digital stamp which I had recently purchased - so it was my something new! I sized the digital stamp and printed it out with my inkjet printer. I added color with Ohuhu markers BG042, E287, G191, G284, R186, V276, Y488, Y691 and Copic marker E41. I die cut the panel using Scrapbook.com's Nested A2 arches. For the sentiment, I stamped on a scrap of teal cardstock using Clearly Besotted's Many Mini Messages stamp set and cut the scrap down to a thin strip. I found a patterned paper for my background from my collection of patterned papers. I adhered the focal image and sentiment to a A2 panel cut from the patterned paper. To complete my card, I adhered the panel to a white A2 card base with double-sided tape.

Our challenge ends at 9 pm today, Pacific time. We'd love to see how you used something new on your card in our gallery.

Here's my card

For those who play over at Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challenge, I made this for their challenge #611. I was so disorganized during the holidays, that I "accidentally" made two cards. So, I re-purposed this card for our Die Cuts &/or Stencils challenge. I started with a white A2 card panel, My Favorite Things' Oval Extraordinaire stencil and my Wendy Vecchi's Make Art STAY-tion. I added tumbled glass distress ink with an oval ink blending brush, concentrating on the edges of the oval. I die cut some foliage and flowers using Gina K Design's Foliage Fillers, Paper Smooches' Foliage 1 and Paper Smooches' Reflections Flowers die sets. For the sentiment, I stamped on a scrap of light gray cardstock using Papertrey Ink's Keep It Simple: Thank You stamp set and trimmed it to a double fish-tail sentiment strip. I glued all the elements in place and adhered the panel to a white A2 card base to complete my card.

Try A Sketch On Tuesday ~ Challenge #662

Hello Crafty Friends! I'm slowly getting back into my regular routine. Going on holiday for a month really messes with one's routines. I'm so happy to be playing at my craft table. I missed it, for sure!

We have a new challenge starting at Try A Sketch On Tuesday. Here's the sketch.

Here's my take on the sketch. I rotated the sketch, 90 degrees to the right.

For my card, I used Pawsome Stamps' Picture Pals stamp set. I stamped the images on white cardstock with Memento Tuxedo Black ink and added color with Ohuhu markers BG082, E293, E761, R192, Y488, Y583, Y696, YG020. I cut the images out to about 1 5/8" x 1 5/8" - just a bit larger than the opening of the "polaroid". I added a bit of tumbled glass distress ink to the edges of the images. I die cut the "polaroids" using Lawn Fawn's Say Cheese, Again die set. I stamped the sentiments using the same stamp set onto the "polaroids" and adhered each image to a "polaroid". I found some patterned paper that went with the yellows/golds of the lion and giraffe and cut it to a 1" x 5 1/2" strip. I adhered the elements to a A2 kraft card base to complete my card.

We'd love to see what you create using our sketch in our gallery.

Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challenge #613

Well, it's still Monday, here on the West Coast of North America. It's the day for a new challenge at Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challenge. Here's the sketch

Here's my card

I stamped the cute bunny and the medicine jar using Mama Elephant's Feel Better stamp set that I received as part of the Crop & Create Delivered Fall 2022 kit with Memento Tuxedo Black ink. I added color with Ohuhu markers BG042, E194, G191 and Copic markers C3, C5, E43. I used the coordinating die that we also received in our kit to die cut the bunny and medicine jar. The die cuts out the ends of the bunny's paws so that the medicine jar could appear to be held by the bunny. I found a striped patterned paper that went with the bunny's colors, cut a strip 5/8" x 5 1/2" and adhered it to a medium gray A2 card panel. I stamped the sentiment using the same stamp set, above the strip. To complete my card, I adhered the A2 card panel to a white A2 card base.
