Friday Feature with Raisin Boat

Hi everyone!  Happy Friday!  We finally made it to the end of the week and this is the beginning of a long weekend.

I haven't shared any projects lately using Raisin Boat products because I sent my projects off to Kim and Bobbi a bit late, so I didn't take pictures.  Thankfully, they've posted some in the Gallery, so I saved the pics and now I can share.

I created this photo frame after watching an episode of Scrapbook Soup.  Not the best show, but sometimes as some good ideas.  I didn't like how they did their frame, but it made me think.  This is what I came up with....

My frame features All in Toile stamp set and it is simple but I think it turned out really pretty!  I think I'll be making another one soon.

Supplies:
Stamps:  All in Toile (Raisin Boat)
Ink:  London Fog (Memento)
Materials:  foam core board, Black Granite card stock (Raisin Boat)
Embellishments:  satin ribbon (Offray), Pearl Pen - Silver)

Delightful Challenges

** Please scroll down for the MTME Pretty Patterns post **

Hi!  Thanks for coming back for the Delightful Challenges post.  This card made me really long for Fall.  I don't miss a lot about living in West Virginia, but one thing I really miss is Fall.  The colors are blazing and gorgeous and rich!  The crispness in the air.  The chilly nights spent cuddling under a blanket with a nice cup of hot tea and a good book.  *sigh*  I really miss that.

So this week at Delightful Challenges we're loving Fall Days.

Here's my card....

What a cutie!  My favorite digi images in the Digital Delights by Louby Loo are the Lara Ladybug, Bumblebee Larry and the other characters with the signature sweet face that Wendy gives these little sweeties.  This is Pumpkin Lara and I love her.

I did create a pretty simple card using a fabulous sketch by Unscripted Sketches.  I really liked this sketch because I was able to showcase some great patterns from the Simply Fall digi paper pack.

Enjoy your day and we'll see you over at the Delightful Challenges blog.

Paper Makeup Wednesday Style

Good Morning!  Happy Hump Day.  I am pretty darn happy that this week seems to be sailing by, I'm looking forward to a long weekend.

Anyway, I missed sharing a card with you last week Wednesday for Paper Makeup Stamps because my hand was so swollen, but I'm almost kind of glad I didn't because I got to play with a fun challenge this week that I wouldn't have, otherwise.

So here's my card featuring Tangii Fairy.  Isn't she cute?!  I love how my card turned out, too.  Clean and Simple with a bit of pizzazz.  What do you think?

I created this card using a fun sketch from Retro Sketches.

Enjoy your Wednesday!

Tuesday Morning Sketches #161

Good Morning!  How are you all doing.  It's already Tuesday and time for another fun sketch at TMS.  And we're sponsored by Raisin Boat!  Whoo-hoo!!  So here's two happy places for me.

Here's the fun part about Raisin Boat sponsoring, you as the winner gets to pick which set you want as your prize.  Be sure to head on over to the TMS blog for all the details.  But before you run off, let me show you my card.  It's very orange.  LOL

I am featuring a fun set called Cup of Flower.  It's a really fun set, but I have to admit, it bit challenging for me.  So I do try to play with it to become a little more comfortable with designing with it.  I paired with a fun matstack called Nana's Kitchen.  I call this my cup of flowers in a mound of brown sugar.

Stamps: Cup of Flower
Ink: Tuxedo Black (Memento)
Cardstock: Neenah Classic Crest, Pumpkin Pie

Paper Pretties Monday

Good Morning!  I hope you all had a great weekend.  It was a busy one here.  Went to the flea market yesterday morning and that was kinda fun.  Didn't get much of anything, a couple of phone cases for Hollyanne and Levi's cell phones.  But it was after that the day was fuller than it was expected to be.

But, let's talk about this week's challenge at Paper Pretties.  This week we're doing Back to School.  ARTish has created another adorable set(s).  I'm featuring Poindexter....

I created this card using a fabulous sketch from The Sweet Stop.  I missed playing last week and I really hate doing that.  I love that challenge blog - of course I'm partial to Korin and the whole team since I used to be a part of it.

Have a fabulous Monday and thanks so much for visiting!

Delightful Challenges

Good Morning!  It's Thursday already! Whoo-hoo!  That makes me very happy because that means only one more day to the weekend.

This week's challenge for Delightful Challenges is going to touch the girly in all of us...

Frilly and Fancy

How fun is that - we get to play with all things girly.  And I had tons of fun creating this card for you.  I hope it inspires you to play along with us.

I think Girl and Bear is a sweet image.  So much fun to color and worked perfectly with the Echo Park papers I used and the beautiful rolled rose die from My Favorite Things.  I am very pleased with the results.  I pulled all of these elements together using a great sketch by Karen Giron at Sweet Sketch Sunday.
