Card Positioning Systems 106




Hi. This is a birthday card for my daughter-in-law who is expecting our first grandchild! I really enjoyed this sketch. Here's the link:

I punched out 4 different sizes of the daisy in mostly pink shades with some yellow and ivory, then stacked them together for two large flowers. I drew glue over the tips of the petals and applied Martha Stewart glitter. I used two-sided tape to glue the glitter onto the smaller flowers. For the medallion, I used Nesties, then stamped it with a Hero Arts sentiment, and cuttlebugged the inner circle. I hope she likes it!
Thanks for looking!

I {heart}2stamp challenge



Hi. This week's sketch is provided by Jenn Diercks. I had fun with it. I didn't follow it exactly, but it is the general idea.

I used a few different papers that looked boyish to make a baby congrats card for a friend of mine. Then I cuttlebugged the pieces and then cut and paste them on top of eachother. Used an organza ribbon on the side.

Thanks for looking.

Paper Makeup Stamps Challenge




I've missed making and posting cards lately. Life has a way of getting in the way, doesn't it? But I am thankful for all that God has allowed me to be a part of in this life. Anyway, here is my card for the PMSC. It's a card for my aunt whose husband (my uncle) died.
Here's the link: http://papermakeupstamps.blogspot.com/2009/02/sketch-challenge.html

The paper is Basic Grey Sugared
I used an Oval Nesty for the sentiment
The stamp is by Paper Inspirations
The ink is Distressed Ink Mahagony
The base card is Archivers Metalic Opal
And on the right hand side are Page Pebbles by Making Memories
Then there's some ribbon, pearls and silk leaves.

Thanks for looking. Have a great day.

Weekend Sketch Challenge #70




Hi. I haven't been able to post for a while. I went to visit my sister who has MS. She has had it for 15 years and really struggles. When her husband goes out of town, I try to go help her out with her kids. Then when I got back, my son and I were sick for a week. Anyway, all better now and I have a card to share with you. It's for my Dad because his brother (my uncle) passed away. I didn't really know him very well, which may seem a bit strange. I have had 6 uncles in my life and only one of them, who lives is Fresno, has ever had much to do with me. He is very special to me.

Ingredients: flower is from a Heidi Grace kit, the stamp is by Paper Inspirations and I used a Cuttlebug border on the side piece. Then I added some gems and silver bling. this was a fun sketch from WSC!
