In the Navy

Here's a card I made with the most darling Edwin Stamp ever! He came in my Summer kit and I decided to make a card with him so I could play along in the Magnolia-licious Highlites Challenge

to create a Nautical themed card. He's coloured with Copics and the sketch I used is from one of the Dirty Dozen challenges going on right now on SCS.

Dirty Dozen Challenges

So I've been playing along on SCS in the Dirty Dozen challenges. Here are two cards that I created for the challenges. The top card is a Rachelle Anne Miller stamp from PaperWorks called "Side by Side" and the 2nd card is using a Spesch stamp from Paper Jewels called "Birthday Boy Unwrapped". Both cards are coloured with Copics :)

Paper Jewels Challenge #5

Paper Jewels has started their challenges up again so if you want a chance to win this adorable stamp, hop on over to the Paper Jewels blog and play along . The challenge runs until July 31st and your job is create something with a fancy border.

Here's my example:

I used CC Designs "Swiss Pixies Ladybug Nora" I colored her with Copics (R29, R27, R24, R22, R20, E11, E00, E000, C9, C7, C5, C3, C00) and inked the edge with CTMH cranberry ink. Her wings are colored in with a Spica pen in Garnet, so they glitter. For my fancy border I used one the new lace border from Magnolia.

Penny with Sunflower

I just love how this card turned out! I used a Spesch stamp called "Penny" from Paper Jewels. I coloured her with copics and then added some flower soft to the center of the Sunflower that she's holding. I entered this card in the SCS challenge to use yellow. The background of the flowers was from a Spellbinders Pendant die cut set.

Pretty Candy

My friend Colleen has started a new venture making and selling pretty hair clips! She's offering some blog candy on her blog, so if you have little girls, be sure to check it out :) Here's the link to her Etsy store, Daisies and Sunshine.

Zach plays soccer

My son really loved playing soccer this year so I thought this guy would make a perfect card for him. I entered this into the F4A challenge this week on SCS. The point was to use your newest supplies, still unopened, so everything on this card was brand new still in the package, except the cardstock.

The ribbon in the corner is a free stamp that comes with the set of Sports Kids Stamps from PaperWorks and I decorated it with stickles and crystal effects to make it shine and sparkle.

Copics: R29, R27, R24, R22, E35, E11, E00, E000, YR23, Y23, C9, C7, C5, C3, C1

Just because...

A little while ago I was the lucky winner of the Really Reasonable Ribbon blog hop prize, which was the June ribbon club kit. This is a card I made using two of the ribbons that came in the kit. The stamp set is from Gina K.

Paper Sundaes Challenge

This week at Paper Sundaes the challenge is to create a card using white and one other colour. I went with green. The pretty frame and flourish are digi stamps from Fred She Said, this weeks sponsor. I printed them out and pierced little holes in all the dots. The ribbon is from Really Reasonable Ribbon, I just love the swirly designs in it!! The flower and stickles I used are from PaperWorks Co.
