Claudia`s Post Christmas Challenge

Good Morning all. This is my first after Christmas Challenge. Claudia of Pretty Pressings has a sketch out for a challenge and this is my take on it.


I received some beautiful paper form Basic Grey and I had to use some. I love this collection. These DP are from the Mistletoe and Pears collection. Don`t you love the color. The glitter paper is from DCWV and it is just the perfect color. Not green and not blue and certainly not turquoise....almost a hunter`s green. Love the sparkle it gives to the card.

I used two Magnolia stamps and colored them with my Prismacolored Pencils and OMS. I am learning on the markers but I so love my pencils. I love blending and shading with the pencils.


I used a Turquoise Spica Pen to highlight as well as my Inkadinkado white gel pen. The spica pen certainly dresses up am image...they just sparkle.
I used the largest square nestibility to cut the sentiment section for the inside and used CB dies to make the corner trims. The Remember When stamp is from Inkadinkado. I love it....it starts a multitude of sentiments.

So, guess what we`re doing today....taking down some decorations. We normally don`t start until New Years Day but today it seemed time so....off I go to the land of `Where the He_ _ is the box for this stupid ornament!

Wish me luck...this is always a trial to our marriage. I hate doing it and know it has to be done. Sounds like fun eh! Talk later.

Merry Christmas to all. I wish all bloggers and their families the perfect Holiday. May all your celebrations and wishes be just perfect for what ever holiday you are celebrating. I have met many new friends through blogging and look forward to 2009. Be Happy All.

For today`s post I am doing a card for a challenge. You had to show your enduring love for someone. Who could resist this wonderful stamp set from Magnolia. Tilda and Edward are about to kiss and I think this is wonderful. The eternal sign of romantic love is kissing so I send this card out to all lovers of Romantic Love and to my Dear Husband.

I colored with my Prismacolored pencils and OMS. I really love pencils. I am able to blend and shade with them. I asked for markers for Christmas so we`ll see how that turns out.

I used the CB and the largest Heart nestibility for Tilda and Edward to sit on. I highlighted with distress ink and stickles. There is a crystal heart on both Tilda and Edward. I layered two ribbons on the BG and used My Mind`s Eye Bohemian paper.

Not much spare time...still delivering gifts. Yesterday`s blizzard put me behind a day so the rush is on. My son has the car this am but this afternoon is mine.

Again have a wonderful Holiday and Talk soon.

Mass Production Santas

I have been following Sharon`s Stamp Simply Challenges celebrating Sharon`s over 1 million hits! Yesterday Tammy from Stamp Happy challenged us to make mass production cards so here is mine.

I made 7 of these cards and had fun doing it. I used a Santa from Magnolia stamps and colored it using Twinkling H2Os. I then used Dazzling Diamonds on the beard and mustache. The fur trim is done using a Snow Writer I picked up at Michaels. I used Whisper White from SU and them attached the image to red scraps that had been put through the Swiss Dot embossing folder and the CB. The joy was written with a white pen on a green scrap paper circle punched using the 1¼ punch from SU. I also used the ribbon punch from SU to slide the Michaels ribbon through. All this was attached to a white base. I used the white gel pen to dot the edges as well.

This was easy to do and fun as well.
Happy Holidays

Christmas Glitter

I made this card following the rules for Spoon full of Sugar...use lots of glitter. I love glitter so this challenge was oodles of fun. The only problem is of course, glitter does not photo well. So I took more photos to see if I could at least tell you where the glitter is.
For the main image I used a Magnolia image I received from Claudia of Pretty Pressings. She sent me a collection of images from Magnolias and I am loving them. To add glitter to the image I used a spica pen to add the red dots along the white scalloped trim. I also used spica pens in black to highlight the dots on the dress and the trim in her hands. I also used the gold spica pen on the trim. I used a combination a black, blue spica pens and white gel pen on the eyes. I really like how they turned out.

The photo above shows how I added red dots to the BG white oval. I used the largest oval nestibility to cut out the image and there was way too much white. I first used a black gel pen to trim the outside edge with the triangle of dots and wavy line. I love this edging trick.... you don`t have to draw a straight line and since it curves you don`t have to be exactly the same distance for the edge. Try it...it is a very forgiving trim. The crystal brads are from the $ store and the flowers are attached with stickles. I love stickles and have to make myself not use it on every card.

Now this final picture show the bottom panel I cut from a page of the Christmas Glitter slab from Provo Craft. It came with the light green trees in full glitter so I just added spica pen glitter to the purple, pink and dark green trees.

I had fun doing this card and continued by decorating the inside. No photos but I just used the Happiest of Holidays stamps from SU to trim it up.

Off to look after the mess created by the wind we have today. So far it has blown our barbecue over. Thank goodness we had run out of gas. The whole thing is in pieces...the burner is off, the tank is loose and the brickets are mostly dust. It also blew the cover off the hot tub so I had to get that back on too.

Sorry folks, blogger was off here every time I tried to post so it is now 2 days late for this posting.

I did this card using Wed. sketch challenge on SCS. I made the panel on the far left using a Tim Holtz method. I swipe my weathered wood ink pad on a Teflon sheet and then misted it until small bubbles formed and then laid a piece of glossy paper on it, pressed it down and then lifted it up. I did this with three distress inks and created this panel. Lots of fun to do and not even messy. Just take a paper towel and swipe across and the mess is gone.

I love my Scor Pal and I used it to put lines along the edges. Just to add a little texture and design to the card. Very easy to do. After I had the base card cut I simply line the cut edge to one line and ran the pointer down a grid.

A friend arrived with 3 stamps for me and this is the pansy one. Cute little stamp. I masked and created this bunch with the single stamp. I colored using blender pen and SU inks.
Details:
Stamp: Inkadinkado Pansy
Ink: Pink Pirouette, Baja Blue, Kiwi Kiss and Pretty in Pink all SU, Weather Wood, Fired Red and Vintage Photo Distress Inks
Paper: Very Vanilla, Kiwi Kiss, Glossy
Accessories: Cuttlebug and Swirl folder, brads fr $store, Scor Pal for Edges

Well, off to finish the laundry but I will be posting again today.

Now for the Correct Colors

Now this is the correct color combination for the SCS color challenge this week. When I did the previous post I thought that was the correct combination but...wrong date. So I had to make another card tight away to correct my mistake.

I really like how this card turned out. The color choices were Pink Pirouette, Kiwi Kiss, and Chocolate Chip. I first thought the Choc. Chip would be too dark but found that using a blender pen allowed me to use just a small amount and keep the color lighter.

It is so cold and wet today. The dogs don`t even want out. The leaves are falling and it is a cold Fall Day....just right for staying inside and stamping.

Talk later the stamps are calling.

A Little Seasons Greetings

I found a new challenge today from the Bella Girls. You are to use Paint on your card so of course I used Twinkling H2Os. I used the sketch from SCS to create this card.
I used these cute little stamps from Michaels $bin and think it turned out rather cute. I used dimensionals to attach it to the swiss dotted panel that I had rubbed my Rose Red stamp pad across. I then attached a panel of Simmer Blue cardstock and then deep red.

I placed a grungeboard star painted with gold dust H2O and the seasons greetings sentiment. I used a embossing template from Lasting Impressions to create this painted sentiment. It was rather plain so I added some lines of stickles to finish off the sentiment.

As I said earlier, I used the SCS sketch for today. I really like the way it all comes from the right corner....just a little different. So, go over and check out the challenge at
http://www.chrissyd723.blogspot.com/ using paint.

Keep smiling folks. Talk later

Not a Christmas Card

Today`s challenge on Spoon Full of Sugar is to make a card using Pink and Green. I decided to use this rose stamp from Rubber Stampede and try to make it look somewhat like a new slightly pink rose. I used my Prismacolored Pencils with OMS to color the image and then cut it out. I used my new oval and scalloped nestibilities and cut out a green and then pink oval. I attached the sore using dimensionals and then attached it all to green DP from Provo Craft. I used the Boho Punch from SU to create the flowers on the side. A dot of stickles on the centers finished the flowers.
I used the glaze pen (pink) and then the white gel pen on the edges of the center image. I used the Pink pencil around the edges of the card to finish the top layer before adding the olive green base. It was different not to do a Christmas card.

Great day but still a little cool so I had the fireplace on for an hour. Pups are demanding to go out so talk later.

Help the Children

From Papertake weekly challenge: This weeks challenge is a charity one! Quick Cards made easy magazine are trying to break the record for the worlds biggest handmade card, for BBC Children in Need. I want you to check this out and maybe join me in creating the world`s largest handmade card.

This is the card I made for this challenge. I have sent it off to Stephanie and look forward to being a part of the big card.

The only requirement for the card was that it be yellow. I love yellow so this was great for me. I used the Tilda blowing in the wind to do this card. This is a Magnolia stamp and I love it. I can almost feel the snowflakes flying through the air. I colored with my precious Prismacolored pencils and used a lot of stickles to make it glisten.

I highlighted the skirt and did the wings in Star Dust Stickles. I also put a drop on each cheek. the snowflakes and trails are done with a silver spica pen.

I used two shades of yellow paper from the Paper Company. The third color is a scrap piece of paper I found. I used the lace border punch for the edge and the Swiss dot cuttlebug folder for the BG.

I Believe in Angels is an Inkadinkado stamp. I have used it a lot. It works with so many different stamps. When I saw it I knew I really had to have it since I love angels. I used SU large oval punch to frame it. I added mircro beeds to the center of a Prisma flower and edged the entire card with Close to Coco and the card was finished.

I really like knowing my card will be used to provide for children. For more information on the Help the Children campaign look here. http://www.bbc.co.uk/pudsey/charity/index.shtml

Princess Sparkle

I made this card for my little great niece who will turn 4 this weekend. She is such a cutie and asked if she could have her Princess party at our house. We have very long outside steps leading up to our house and she thinks it looks like a palace. Now tell me, who could say no to such a request. So, Sunday will see us with 10 little girls dressed to the nines, for a Palace Princess Ball. I am so excited. I always wanted a little girl and I kept getting active little boys. Love them all but they are not into pink or purple like their Mom is.

Cadence is our little Princess who I profess to spoil and adore. I made this card for her with her favorite princess on it.

This is of course, a Disney stamp that I found at Michaels. I colored it in Primascolor pencils and highlighted it with both stickles and spica pen. It really sparkles but that is so hard to photograph. It either does not show much or it appears as a large white out. I did the image on whisper white and used the rectangle nestibility to cut out first the white and then the Pretty in Pink. The final layer is a piece of pink and white scrap that I cut with the scallop nestiel I outlines the embossed edges with silver spica pen and dots while I used a pink glaze pen to dot the scallops. Lots of sparkle. The large C is done in Cotton Candy stickles.
I used the small oval punch SU, and wrote four with the glaze pen and doodled with the stickles. This photo really shows how well the swiss dot cuttlebug folder works. I highlighted the dots by rubbing the silver ink pad across the paper. I did the same with the swirl embossed section and they both add more sparkle.
I outlined the birthday tag with more stickles. The only problem with stickles, at least for me, is getting it to dry before I smudge it all.

I know Cadence will love this sparkly card. I am also using it for the Cute Card Thursday Challenge #29 out this week. Perfect timing for me.

Well DH comes home tonight so its clean up time. I went to bed at 11pm but no luck sleeping so I got up at 1am and wrote this entry. Lord knows how many mistakes or ramblings there are on this. Please accept my apologies. I can`t vacuum without waking the boys so I guess I`ll dust and be ready to vacuum later on in the mornings.

Talk later and I love all the comments so please invite your friends over and lets talk.

Natural Only

Verve stamps has a monthly parade and this last part of September has the theme of Natural Fibers. Kraft paper was to be used and anything natural like twine could also be used. You have until September 30th to post to the site below. Someone will win $15 to spend and the Verve stamp shop. http://vervevisual.blogspot.com/

This time I used Kraft paper and Old Olive paper. Instead of folding in the middle I fol the card at the top making a flap of 4 inches on a 6.25 inch card. Just a little change. Actually I got the design from my SU demo Karen Boreham, one very talented lady...don`t tell her I called her a
lady.

The stamp used is an older SU Christmas stamp. I stamped it in Old Olive and then used Prismacolored pencils with OMS. I found I had to use some detail clear embossing powder on the pine cones and the ribbon to add depth to the card. The Peace stamp is from Inkadinkado stamped in Close to Cocoa. Now I like the card.

So, go have some fun and check out the challenges in this post and the previous. I have no obligations so I`m off to enjoy myself.

No Square Corners

This card is the one I am sending in for the Dutch Dare Challenge found here:

http://www.dutchdare-cardchallenges.blogspot.com/. What you had to do was a card without any square corners. I used this Magenta stamp and then cut around the stampl I painted this card using H2Os and then added some spica pens for even more sparkle on the flowers. I painted the leaves using a blender pen and Old Olive ink pad.

I made the card first on white scrap paper and found it just need more oomphs so I tried outlining it in black but then the card appeared to flimsy. Finally I found the solution by making a full shadow card using heavy black card stock.

When I looked at this blog entry I decided the card still was on the mark sooooo I added some gold dots around the edges and used Vintage Photo and Walnut Stain distress inks to add depth to the wood and the stems. I added black spica pen to the butterfly and to the bottom ribbon to create depth here as well. Well I now like the card much better. What do you think?

Cuttlebug Folder Lace Tree

As I promised yesterday, here is the second cuttlebug folder I purchased and I really love it. I see it most as a Christmas folder but it is called Lace tree sooooo how about for the spring if I colored it with chalks. I must remember that one.

The photo really doesn`t do the card justice. The tree is embossed on Green Gold Pearl Luster Paper. It has such a lovely greenish color that the photo does not really show. I paper pierced the edges, used the ticket punch from SU on the corners and layered on red then black. the Rejoice is done in detail black embossing power and then I drew in the flourishes with a black spica pen.

The second card today is made following this sketch for Pretty Pressings. http://rosaswelt.blogspot.com/2008/09/pretty-pressings-sketch-challenge-with.html this is the link for this blog candy. Be brave and have fun go check it out.
I used the SU set called Wishing You Cheer. This is the first time I used this set and I am quite pleased with how it turned out.
I stamped all the images with versfine onyx black except for the Merry Christmas which I stamped first in the versamark and then in Rose Red. I embossed the sentiment with detail clear embossing. I learned this trick from Michele Zindorf. She is such a fantastic artist. She does it all the time and it really does work.

As you can see, I used brads in each corner to create some color. I had cuttlebugged the blue paper with the swirl embossing folder and cut a 3.5 inch square to hold the 3 inch circle. The outside squares are 5 inches and 5.25 inches. I used the 1.25 inch circle punch from SU to create the circles on the corners. I used $ door stamps for the candy cane and the Merry Christmas.
I colored the images with Prismacolored Pencil and highlighted the snowman with a clear spica pen. This made the snowman sparkle.

Both of these cards were fast to make and fun to do. Give the Pretty Pressings challenge a go. It is a great sketch.

On to us a Child is Born

This card is made following sketch #3 on Jacksonbelle challenges. It is a great sketch with lots of variety give it a try. I was so excited. Yesterday my embossing folders arrived from www.embellish-online.com . I have wanted the Swiss Dot folder for ages and they had the folders on sale so of course I bought 3. Today I only used Swiss Dot and I still love it. The blue pearl paper uses the Swirl folder.

The images are from Inkadinkado Christmas package. I used H2Os to paint the images and then I used my versamark and added Dazzling Diamonds to make some sparkle. I wrote the sentiment on the side and yes I changed it from Un to to On to so even though the photo is wrong the card is correct. Oh I do so love mistakes....cause I`m so goooood at it.

When I put it all together I decided it needed something more so I added ribbon and dots. I tried to make dots on the ribbon but I could only get stickles to show up and even they aren`t great.

My DH is away for 8 days to Toronto so I get to be a control freak for the next few days. It`s really not that bad now that the boys are so old...one can even drive them places. Now if I could just convince one of them to feed and put out the dogs. Oh well such a life. Actually I will have lots of time to play since all the boys have their own lives to lead and spending time with Mom is not terribly high on the list. I do wish I had their social lives because they all seem to have places to be, people to talk too. Thank God for cell phones. They allow us all to stay in contact which is very important to me.

Oh, gotta go, DS is here to spend some time with Mom....yeah! yeah! yeah!

Dawn of Another Year

This is my card for SC194 on SCS. The hardest part of this card was following the sketch. I kept making one piece too short. First it was the bottom piece and then it was the side piece. I was so frustrated that I almost whifted it across the room. I thought I was being so smart, I cut the orange and then cuttlebug it. The problem is, I forgot how the space between had to be added on, so..... After 3 times stupid I finally got it right. I stamped the man and the trees in Distress ink Walnut stain and then used a post it to create the horizon. I punch a small circle out of the post it and colored it apricot appeal to create the morning sun. Lots of sponging and SU inks created the morning sky. On my gallery on SCS, I have listed all my colors. My name is RetiredHeather. Go for a visit and let me know what you think.

Guess the family will be expecting supper so....time to go create some sort of miracle on the table. Maybe they`ll surprise me and say...I`ll bring home supper Heather. Wow that would be fantastic. Here`s hoping.

Hold on to Your Dreams

I got great mail today. After waiting for ages I opened the mail today to my Autumn Magnolia Stamp Club stamps. Oh they are so lovely. I could hardly wait to use them.

The first thing I had to do was find a challenge that I could use my new stamps. Lucky me. I found the following sketch at http://2sketches4you.blogspot.com/2008_09_01_archive.html .

This is a great spot to go for challenges. They put a new one up each week. Sooooo, guess what I colored with...Prismacolored Pencils. I have asked for the markers for Christmas just for a change. But until then, I love my pencils. I had great fun mixing the colors reds, oranges, greens and browns with the golden hues to color the flowers and the leaves. It is a great stamp set...6 angels and 10 other stamps. Gotta love those Magnolia stamps.

I used all kinds of dimensionals on this card. I tried to show a side view but its not that great. I put the leaves and the log directly on the DP and the rest are on dimensionals. I ordered these from Jody Morrow at http://confessionsofaribbonaddict.blogspot.com/ . Jody often has ribbon and sticky sales. Her dimensions are great. I am getting low so hope she has a sale again soon.

I purchased the DP at Michaels and it does not have a label in the back but I`m guessing Provo Craft or Canson since those are their two big papers. It is beautiful fall paper.

Hope you like this card. Please leave comments. It makes me feels so wonderful to hear from people. Thanks to all who comment.

Talk to you later

Spoon Full of Sugar Challenge

I did this card following the rules for Challenge #16 on this site: http://aspoonfullofsugarchallenge.blogspot.com/ . I confess it is the same stamp as yesterday. Now I could say I did it so you could see how 1 stamp can be used 2 different ways or it could be that I just was so excited with this stamp I used it again....we`ll never know.

The sketch for this challenge allowed me to create my own DP. I embossed snowflakes from the Snow Burst SU set. It glistens because I embossed with Crystal powder and I love how it sparkles. I used the smaller images found in this set on the BG of the image.

If you remember from yesterday, the stamp is a Wiff of Joy image and I love, love it. I ordered the stamp from the Wiff of Joy blog and I am very impressed with the service.

Another quiet day on the home front. The yearly county fair is finishing today so all the family will be back to normal tomorrow. DH and YS worked at the Dining Hall. All Graduates and family and friends may earn money on graduation dues by working the dining hall during fair time. DH has been there 3 days. I miss doing this with the family but at least I am still only on the cane and walker so life is OK. I probably would have done dishes so how can I complain about that.

Just had DH phone that they are all on the way home and they are beat. Looking forward to seeing the final on Big Brother tonight so must go now.

Sarah Kay Challenge #10 / Blog Candy Alert

Every Sunday Sarah Kay Challenges posts a new challenge. This week the sketch was

Great sketch right. I used my Sweet and Sazzy image from Sarah Kay. The artist is Elizabeth Bell and I think she is fantastic. I buy my stamps from Funky Kits found at http://www.funkykits.co.uk/catalog/ . I have had really great service from them and love their store.

Of course, I used my Prismacolored Pencils to do the image on whisper white paper. I used my largest rectangular nestilbility and embossed the frame. I used Vintage Photo and Frayed Burlap on the edges to highlight the embossed frame.

I really had fun distressing the edges of the BG layer. I used my cutting tool from SU to cut and roll the edges. The more you press against the edge the more it distresses the edges. On the left corners I wanted to create a 3D effect so I rolled the corners around a pencil to create the curl. I crumpled and re crumpled the paper before I used the Frayed Burlap Distress ink to highlight the many creases. I was trying for an aged look and think it turned out OK.

For the side design I used Prisma flowers and Martha Stewart`s lace edge punch on a scrap of DP. I found the holes were not showing up well so I highlighted them with a gold spica pen. I used a brown /brass brad to attach the larger flower combo and used crystal effects and microbeeds to attach the smaller flowers. I used the 1/4 inch punch and wrote thanks on it and then used Antique Glass Liquid Embossing fluid to give the tag a bit of punch.

The next layer was a scrap of unknown texture paper.

So do you like it or not. I really appreciate the comments. Its great to know someone else sees your work and has taken the time to comment.

Talk to you later. Heather

Before you go CHECK out this BLOG CANDY at http://bunny-zoes.blogspot.com/ . The prize is a fantastic High Hopes Christmas stamp....a really great snowman.

Our Puppy Family

We had these photos taken by Krista Reid Photography (skreid@sympatico.ca) just last Thursday. Two of the pups have gone to new adoptive families and one will go this week. We are keeping Maggie and she is a cutie.





We had to put the Teddy Bear on the middle pup to keep her from jumping off the bale of hay. We spent a lot of time chasing that little one. She was weighed at the vet the day before and she only weighed 1pound 3oz. and its all pure dare devil.

Our puppy, Maggie, is the one in the bucket. She is a bundle of pure joy.

But a girl does need her beauty sleep! Right in the middle of the photos, Maggie decided to catch a nap. She was out of commission for about 10 minutes but then was back to being a model. All these photos are the untouched proofs so when we get the photos made up the photos will be cropped. We had a great time and it is such a great way to have photos for a scrapbook. Oh yeah, Krista is family so.... we were able to do this.

Now back to cards. For the first time, I took part in the Feature Stamper Challenge at SCS. I have never cased a card before but this is how it turned out.

The Featured Stamper is Denise (Card Crazy) at SCS. I cased her card found here:
http://www.splitcoaststampers.com/gallery/photo/773109?cat=500&ppuser=98383
I changed the color, added another layer sto make the brown more prominent and I ticket punched the corners.

I used the Cricut machine with the George Basic Shapes cartridge to get the heart. When I cut the heart one size larger in almond paper it didn`t look great so I simply cut around the original. To make the Pocket simply cut a scallop circle ( I used SU punch) and a smaller circle for the inside. Fold each in half and fit together . A small flower and brad hold the two together. I attached this to the point of the heart but only in the back.

I used dimensionals attaching the heart to the paper and the large square to the brown base. I like how it turned out. You can put a small item inside the pocket. The romantic in me thinks this would be a great way to deliver a `ring`to a special someone.

Well it is absolutely a downpour here. Its 8:45 am and the skies are black. I guess this is our part of the hurricane. Thank goodness, we do not have the wind. I expect many flooded basements and ruined gardens but hopefully nothing more serious. Guess I should check everyone`s windows, eh!

Have a good one.

Happy Birthday Blue Girl

I made this card for the Papertrey Weekly Challenge # 28. I chose my papers first and then decided on the stamp. I started with a larger card..6inches by 8inches but I made it smalles. Now it is actually 6.5 x 5 inches and fits into a regular envelope. All the papers are from Provo Craft Slab XI. These papers are from the Cadenza patterns.

The sketch is found on papertakeweekly.blogspot.com . I found this a difficult layout. I had a hard time deciding which layer was which color but finally I figured it out. Maybe the problem was timing. I was up at 4 am. Two of the pups are going to their adoptive homes and I have become very attached to the little bums. They have kept me hopping but they always come running when they see me and that makes a person feel great. I knew I would have difficulty today...and I was right. Tears were in my eyes as soon as the new owners came in. The pups both went to fantastic families and I know they will be spoilt just the like my own pups. Soooo maybe the difficulty was not in the sketch but in the stamper!

I used this Magnolia girl and a butterfly. Both of these Magnolia stamps were purchased at the Town Shoppe. Phebe has really great prices for Canadians plus the customer services is fantastic. We talk on the phone whenever Magnolia stamps arrive.

I used Prismacolored pencils and Odorless Mineral Spirits to color the image and then I used daubers and three inks to color the BG. I used Pretty in Pink, Pale Plum and Bashful Blue all from the Soft Subtles collection from SU. This is my favorite family of colors and I find I use them often. I love the way the daubers make a soft almost cloudy BG.

I am really not very cheerful today. Sorry but I don`t handle the pups moving to new homes very well. I will put a photo of them all on the blog next week.

Until then...Happy Crafting.
Heather
