Basic Grey challenge #35

Here is my card inspired by the Basic Grey challenge this week, which was to use ice cream in your design or use colors from your favorite flavor. Well, I just got this stamp from Stamps Happen, so I was tickled to use it. Isn't it fun? I colored the ice cream with Copics and used stickles as accents. I've used BG papers from the Sultry line which go perfectly with this! I used Bazzill Shimmer paper for the card base. I think I'll use the card for a birthday, but I'm not sure yet. What do you think?

Dutch Dare challenge #48

This was a color combo challenge. Use blue and white and one other color. Here's my card using Blue, White and Mustard. The white card stock is Bazzill shimmer, I used some ribbon and gems. The image is from a free zone, I made it into a 3D. I'm going to use it as an anniversary card for my sister. She loves Blue and white together. Her whole house is blue and white!

Thanks for looking. All comments are welcome.

Copics Color Challenge #13 and Color Throwdown #42

This card is for two challenges. The link above will take you to the Copics Color Challenge and here is the link for the Color Throwdown: http://colorthrowdown.blogspot.com/2009/05/color-throwdown-42.html

I love the sketch from Copics and the colors for the Color Throwdown were awesome together! I'm going to use that combo more often!

My Stamped image is a Penny Black's Garden Poems stamp. Copic colors I used are: B04 and G24. The sentiment is from the Craft Lounge's In His Name clear stamp set. I used Black Stickles around the border. The patterned paper is by My Minds Eye: Kaleidoscope Blues. The flowers are from the Bazzill collection: The Flower Box. They are so pretty!

Hope you like it. Let me know what you think.

Jazzy Inspriations Challenge #11

Hi. I was really inspired by the Jazzy challenge this week. The featured jazz album is a Charlie Parker album. I've made my card in honor of one of the songs he plays on his album, "Summertime" by George Gershwin. This is a long-standing favorite of mine. Years ago, as a young woman, I took voice lessons. "Summertime" was one of my favorites. I didn't realize how much I would come to appreciate music like this down the road. I hope you enjoy my card. I have made my own embellishments, mostly by copying images from the internet and cutting, coloring and pasting them. I printed part of the musical score for the song as part of the card.

Our Creative Corner

Here is my entry for this week's challenge, it's a card for my mother-in-law. The stamp is by Stamps Happen. It's colored with Copics. I cut out the ovals myself. Used some stickles around the edge of the image and a peel-off for the sentiment. Thanks for looking!

Friday Sketchers #48 challenge

Here is a card I made for this weeks challenge at Friday Sketchers. I really like the sketch! It was fun to do. I used a Penny Black stamp on Neenah paper and then some pieces of scraps to fit the sketch. I colored the cute little butterfly with Copics. The sentiment is a peel-off sticker and I also used some stickles to accent. I've made an envelope to match.
thanks for looking!

Card Positioning Systems 111 Challenge

Hi. My son's birthday is next week and I chose the sketch on CPS to do his card with. He is an assistant project manager for a commercial construction company in Dallas, TX. I am so proud of him! And he and his wife are expecting their first baby (our first grandchild!!) I used vellum to print the lyrics to a song on the front of this card. I made my "blueprint" paper from a google image. I made the tags with Nesties and cut out images that I thought were appropriate for his job from google.
This was a fun card to make. Hope you enjoy!

Mojo Monday Challenge 82

I've made a card for the Mojo Monday sketch. The sketch is really a nice one. I made this card for a friend of mine who lost a family member. The pansy stamp is Penny Black, the sentiment is Paper Inspriations. I used Neenah paper to stamp on and Copics to color the flowers. I do not know what brand the DP's are, I've had them loose in my stash for a while. Hope you like my interpretation.

thanks.
