SSC 198

Hi
It was really nice to finally get some time to make a card. Life has been crazy here the last few weeks. This is my entry for the Sketch Challenge over at http://stamping411.blogspot.com/. I love that we are only allowed to use Stampin Up products!!
I used Flight of the Butterfly stamp set
Paper and Ink is Cameo Coral, Tempting Turquoise, So Saffron and White
I finally got to use my New Big Shot Ebosslit too. I love the little buttons it creates :)
Thanks for looking :)

Thank You Kindly

Here is my entry for the SSC 194 at http://stamping411.blogspot.com/.
I used Baja Breeze, Daffodil Delight and Crumb Cake ink and paper from SU. The stamp sets were Pocket Silhouettes and Thank You Kindly from SU. I think I will use this card in my upcoming stamp camp class. :) Thanks Ladies at stamping411 for an awesome sketch this week! ( I should say every week!) :)

SSC 193

So after a week away I am back and ready for another challenge from http://stamping411.blogspot.com/
I used SU Party Hearty stamp set with some retired colors: Brilliant Blue, Only Orange, YoYo Yellow. I also had fun using some of my bigger circle punches! I think this would make a nice birthday card for a young child.
Thanks for looking!

Hi There!

Tonight I challenged myself to use the SU Good Neighbors Stamp set. It was a sale-a-bration set from 2010 and sad to say that I have not used it until tonight. Now I wonder why! I think I will make a bunch of these to keep on hand to send notes to friends.
Stamp sets: Good Neighbors and Fundamental Phrases
Ink and Paper: Soft Suede, Baja Breeze, Cherry Cobbler, Vanilla and Old Olive
Thank goodness I had a stamp-a-ma-jig to keep everything straight. That is a must have for any stamper.Thanks for stopping by to look.

Easter Blessings

Hi
I used the Saturday Sketch challenge 191 from: http://stamping411.blogspot.com/ and the Stampin' Royalty Challenge 59 at: http://stampinroyalty.blogspot.com/ and came up with these two variations of an Easter card. I had fun playing around with my markers while coloring on the Stampin' Royalty card.
Here is what I used:
Never Ending Joy stamp set...SU
Paper and markers are all SU: Pear Pizzazz, Rich Razzleberry, Tempting Turqoise, White, Black and Garden Green (for shading on the stems).
I used my stamp a jig to make sure everything lined up. I used my color coach to help me use colors I normally don't play with. I also added a button from the Fresh Favorites 1 with linnen thread and a glue dot.
Thanks for looking :)

Here is the entry for SSC 191

Here is my entry for SR 59

Get Well Soon

This is my entry for the Saturday Sketch Challenge 190 that can be found at: http://stamping411.blogspot.com/
I used mostly SU products on this card.
Paper is soft suede, regal rose, so saffron and vanilla. I used Eastern Blooms, Flight of the Butterfly and Sincere Salutations for stamp sets. I chose to use a butterfly instead of a bow due to my inability to tie a pretty bow on this card.
Thanks for looking :)
