My Creative TIme Challenge


The challenge is to use a frame
I used Cricut's Wild Card cartridge 
to create a frame
I inked the edges with Memento's Desert Sand Ink
Peach Textured Cardstock -  ColorBok
Green Dotted Swiss - Bazzill 
Twine - Follow Your Eye
Vintage Gem on bottom left- Creative Charms
Yellow gem from Michael's 
Gem on the top flower - Scrapabilities
Mulberry Paper Flower  - Recollections Boutique Fleur 
Flower on top right fabric Francies - Prima Marketing
And the cardstock sticker is from Bo Bunny's a gift of love 






Peachy Challenge 15 :: Just Cards


 This challenge was to create your own 
Background
I love hearts and angels so I decided to 
use  PK's January 2012 Stamp Kit

I stamped Love with Memento's Angel Pink
 traced over, some of them, with my Sharpies markers

Then I used PK's Valentine Sweets on everything else.
Yet another purchase that was gathering dust and which 
never had been used. Ahhh SHAME on me!

The red box of candy was colored with a Sharpie
I colored the pink box with my Prismacolor pencils 
blended with a stump & Sansodor solvent

The bow was colored with my sharpies and the 
Heart tip is a paper piece 
The feather's - colored with Sharpies
I had to play with different colors
until I came up with a color combination that worked for me.

For the Hearts I used my stickles 
each heart has two different colored Stickles 
I love how that turned out.

The frame was created with Offray Ribbon 
& Michael's Gems from the dollar bin.
Then I used pink and lavender twine - The Twinery

MS Block Party

This is for the latest Market Street Block Party
Not the best picture so I will try to get a better one later.
The ribbon and the paper are scraps and the gems are all 
from an unknown source
I used memento ink 
Danube Blue 
On Recollection Diecut Shapes (8 for a buck) 
Silver glimmer mist on the background paper
I have had it forever and thought ok I am 
going to branch out here.
I buy thing and then they sit there forever 
I need to stop doing that.
I was going for a simple elegant look here
