Stampin' In Alaska

Paper Smooches Sparks is hosting another "Anything Goes" challenge this week over on the blog. I recently ordered a few of the new stamp  sets and the Poloroid die .  So, I thought: "Why not use the fun PS die for a layout?"   Here's what I came up with:     I also combined a few of the stamps from PS We Totally Click and I think they add the perfect balance to the page. Snowflake eyelet charms by MME, rhinestones, a paw brad, tag and skis by Jolee's finish the page.     The layout is based on a great sketch provide by Sally over on Splitcoast Stampers. I am also entering this layout in the Simon Says Stamp  Wednesday Challenge:  Ice Inspiration . Thanks for stopping by for a closer look! I always enjoy reading your comments.

I'm also entering my card into the following challenges: Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge - Something New Splitcoast Stampers - Sketch Challenge #469 and Ways to Use It Challenge #460

I hope your weekend has started off great. I'm stopping by with a fun card for  this week's Jellypark Friends Challenge : Anything Goes. I used Claire Keay's adorable digital image  " Girl hugging Heart " from the Jellypark online shop. This sweet image was colored with Copic Markers and  fussy cut then popped up on a felt die cut circle. This card is also for Day 5 of the Hope You Can Cling To Challenge over on Splitcoast Stampers. Lee challenged us to use Pink Camouflage somewhere on our project. I created my own camouflage panel by using fun foam (thanks for the tip from Cook22 and MrsLaird), Spellbinder Heart Nestibilities and two Memento Dew Drop inks:  Angel Pink and Rose Bud. The digital sentiment is a freebie from  Create With TLC . I am also sharing this card over on the  Create With TLC Show It Off Sunday Linky Party. Thanks for stopping by!  I hope you get a chance to check out a...

Happy Saturday and welcome to a new sketch with The Sweet Stop. My card incorporates three Sweet 'n Sassy clear stamp sets this week Nature Silhouettes 2 Script Birthday Birthday Innies This card is also for the Splitcoast Stampers Hope You Can Cling To Challenge for Day 1. Our challenge was to create a card with a dimensional object shown through a shaped opening. I used a bird die cut from Sweet 'n Sassy's  Birds and Feathers dies on the inside of my card.  It was placed on dimensional foam after sponging the circle.  Just a few things to keep in mind as you play.... -You do NOT have to use Sweet 'n Sassy Stamps images to play along,     but we sure love when you do! ~You may flip or rotate the sketch, change or replace the shapes,  but please make sure the general layout is recognizable. ~Share a direct link to your creation, not just your blog Be sure to stop by the blog ...

Hello Saturday! Have you every had one of those weeks where you were super busy but yet you thought the work week would never end?? That's where this adorable giraffe from Art Impressions comes in..... I saw this at Stamp Attic , my LSS, a few months ago and couldn't resist the purchase.  It just made me smile. I colored the image with Copic Markers then fussy cut and  applied to the base panel of my card.  The card size is 6.25 x 3.5 and I followed this week's CAS challenge on Splitcoast Stampers . I'm also entering my card into this week's Simon Says Challenge: Anything Goes . Their sponsor this week is Art Impressions who is giving a lucky winner a fabulous prize.  I would LOVE to add more AI stamps to my collection! I am also sharing this with the new Create With TLC " Show it Off Sunday ". A  place to share your creations and be inspired by other artists.  How fun is that?  Hope you get a chance ...
