Beate's Weekend Sketch Challenge WSC27
Here it is! Check out Beate's weekend Sketch Challenge (picture is below.) After a VERY stressul and busy week, I took today to stamp and rejuvenate. We will be making the middle cards at Stamp Camp this week. I will post directions for the Star Pattern on the card which uses the Stampin' Up! Tag Punches, large and small. This also uses the Stampin' Up! DP which is on sale this week. For more information, contact me or if you have another SU Demonstrator, contact her. ;) Thanks for looking and have a fabulous day!

Lopsided Circle -another take on Debby M's Sketch
On my last card, I had originally made the circles too large and had to trim them down. This left me with scraps of lunar shapes. When I saw them I had this idea! Always use your unique shaped scraps! :) The colors I used were from SU - Pomegranite, Wild Wasabi, Soft Sky DP, basic Black and Whisper White. I also used to white gel pen to highlight areas on the paper.
One thing I thought - but had the card already well glued down was to add brads going down the sides of the circles - for a little extra "something."
Thanks for looking! Have a great day!

WSC-22 Timeless
This weekend, my friend Danita and I did some stamping. It was lots of fun. Here is another card made with Beate's Challenge. This one used a stamp I do not know who made. I borrowed it from Danita. I just LOVE this image!
I crumped the paper and then sponged it with bordering blue and lightly with Navy. I also sponged the Blue Bayou ribbon with Night of navy to make it a bit darker. It worked out prefectly and matched the Bordering Blue better. The butterflies and the watch - I cut out and used dimensionals to give the card a little "dimension."
This was a color challenge too from Splitcoast Stampers. The colors I used are Regal Rose, Blush Blossom, Bordering Blue and Night of Navy. I also used the French Flair BG, Canvas BG on the cardstock.

Christmas Slider Card
Noah
Good morning! As I sat here this morning, my 7 yo son, Noah came and sat next to me. He happened to see this Blog and I showed him Sarah's picture. He immediately said, "Where's my picture?" So here it is. We went camping this past weekend and here he is being goofy. This was the most "normal" picture that he did - we are in the goofy face stage. heehee
