My Cup of Tea #FM199

Good Friday morning and since its Friday, it must mean that its time for another challenge over at The Friday Mashup!  Tara is feeling antiquee and she has come up with a great mashup for everyone.

 

 

This week's Mashup Challenge:

• Create a project with an "Antique Style, element or theme".
• Create a project using the "Embossed Embossing technique" (tutorial) .
• or Mash it Up! and create an "Antique project using the Embossed Embossing Technique". 

 

 

When I think of antique, I think of my Mom's blue and white dishes she likes to collect.  I just love the Stampin' Up! Tea Party stamp set.  It was perfect for this challenge and the added lace trim brought it all together.

Pinterest Inspired

 

Good morning and thanks for dropping by.  Today I am over at Stylin' Stampin' INKspiration where today we are sharing projects created from things that inspired us from Pinterest.  As I was browsing thru some of the boards that I enjoy following, I came across this set of blueprints from My Favorite Things.  It was a great set of sketches and I knew right away what stamp set I wanted to use for it.

 

 

 

I really enjoy the new stamp set "Crazy About You" from the new SU! occasions catalog because it has tons or words that you can use to create your own phrase and the flower that comes with it is adorable.

 

This just happens to be my first Mothers Day card out of the way.  One down, one more today!  I stamped three times the flower in tangerine tango and cut it out in three pieces to layer with foam dots.  I added a clear button with a natural twine bow to the center.  I added three different sized dots I created using crystal affects and colored with the dark shade of night of navy blendabilities.

Perk Up with CYCI58

Good morning!  Thanks for stopping by to see my project for the new challenge over at Can You Case It? this week.  This week its "designers choice" which means we get to create what we want.  My friend has been sick the past couple of weeks, so I wanted to create and send her a card to perk her up and since we both are huge fans of "COFFEE", what better card to send her than a coffee card!!!  Take a few minutes and go get your craft on and join us this week!

 

The little coffee cup comes from a monthly Simon Says kit I got a few months ago.  It included a cute little coffee themed stamp set and a metal die that cuts out this coffee cup.  The pink/yellow dsp I used also came from this kit.  I added some strawberry slush twine for a little girly look!

 

Supplies Used

Cardstock ~ whisper white (SU!)

Ink ~ tangelo twist (SU!)

DSP ~ Simon Says

Stamps/Dies ~ sentiment and coffee cup is Simon Says, Word Bubble stiched die is My Favorite Things 

Misc. ~ strawberry slush twine (SU!)

 

Now that you've seen my designers choice card, I hope it inspires you to go create and join in the fun this week at Can You Case It?

Dropping in for Your Birthday #FM198 Challenge

Good Friday morning everyone!  Today I am over at The Friday Mashup where Lisa has come up with a fun mashup challenge for us this week.  I hope you will enjoy my challenge card and decide to come play along with us.

 

 

This week's Mashup Challenge:

• Create a project using the "Sketch". 
• Create a project with anything "Flight Themed (hot air balloon, plane, kite, etc)"
• or Mash it Up! and create a project "using the sketch and anything flight themed".

 

One of the things I enjoy creating are cute kids cards, but just don't do it often.  As soon as I saw the theme of "take flight" I new right away what stamp set I wanted to play around with.  The Boys will be Boys stamp set is perfect for any little boy.

 

I hope you have enjoyed my challenge card, leave some "love" and go see what the other designers created!

Clean & Quick with CYCI#57

Good morning and thanks for taking a few minutes of your weekend to visit my blog and say hello.  Today I am over at Can You Case It? where its time to share and get creative with our "Clean and Quick" challenge.  So grab that cup of coffee, check out what inspired our designers and go get creative and have fun with our challenge!

 

I will have to admit that there is one stamp set that really stands out to me.  Its a stamp set that no matter how many times I see something created with it, I just fall in love with it over and over.  Kinda Eclectic is such a wonderful stand set for layering and simple stamping.  It can be dressed up or dressed down for an occasion card you need.  If I had to suggest one stamp set to anyone, it would be this set!
