Another Christmas card done...

Hello crafty peeps! I have a quick card to share:

 Here's the inside:

I colored this cutie up and added Glossy Accents to her eyes and the bulbs (then proceeded to accidentally smear some of the bulbs - rolls eyes and shakes head). The sentiment was heat embossed for some added shininess, though you can't see it in this photo. But it does. For real.  ☺

That's it for me. Back to life. Gotta go walk the fur baby! Thanks for stopping by, and I hope you have a great day!

Did you get it?

...a sail boat on the water, a cassette tape, and a rocking horse all, well, rock! (patting myself on the back for my cleverness *koff*) So, since these images are nice sized, I made a 5" x 7" card so they'd all fit. All three are paper pieced and fussy cut. Here, maybe I should show you what I'm talking about:

 and here's the inside:

I need to work up my stash of thank you cards, and now I have one to send to a guy if need be. (Although it would still work for a gal too!) I'm using sketch #5 over at The Crooked Stamper Sketch challenge, and since it's been ages for me to use more than just a Paper Smooches sentiment stamp on a card, I am entering this over at the current PS Sparks challenge - Anything Goes. ☺

SHOPPING OUR STASH #192 - Counting On You

Hello and welcome! We have a new challenge starting at SHOPPING OUR STASH, and it's all about NUMBERS! We'd like to see you incorporate a number (or numbers) into your card or project. Here's what I came up with:

Here's the inside:

I had some fun with Distress Inks and masking. I die cut the larger Bam Bubble die and used the negative as my mask, then went to town using a couple different inks and sponged them in. I spritzed some water onto it then blotted off for the spots. The 'seriously' was stamped first in VersaMark then another DI color and embossed with clear embossing powder. I dug through my stash of number stickers and found these to use. Another stamp finishes the inside. 

I actually made three of these cards, all basically the same design, but with slight differences to them:

They all use the same three DI colors and all have the main panel edges distressed. I have four nephews that are all turning 21 this year. (two live in the same state, so I will need to make a different card for him) But since three of them live in different states, why not mass produce?! (And yes, 1994 was a very fertile year for both my hubby's and my family!) LOL!

I hope you get the chance to play along with this week's number challenge at Shopping Our Stash! Wait until you see the awesome creations that my teammies came up with! Please do visit their blogs and leave some love! Thanks for stopping by and I hope that you have a great day!

There's a new challenge in town....

Yep. That's right. Leslie of The Crooked Stamper, has started a new sketch challenge! Hold on to your panties - shit's about to get real! LOL! First the sketch, them my take on it:

Here's the inside:

 

 I followed the sketch pretty closely, just added my sentiment centered (if not straight) under the frame. A die cut frame, some paper pieced balloons, another simple sentiment on the inside and I was done. Easy peasy lemon squeezy! 

I hope that you get a chance to play along with Leslie's new sketch challenge! I'm playing along because she's my friend and I want to support and cheer her on with this new endeavor. (But, just so you know, she'll be giving away prizes too! SWEET!)
