Good morning!

Here's my card.

CAS Sunday at Outlawz

I made this card for the CAS Sunday Challenge this week over at Outlawz.  Maureen Merritt has given us a fun one to do.   

It's a recipe this week.  You must use these 3 items on your card, you may use additional supplies, however, you MUST use these...

1.  Patterned Paper

2.  Twine/Linen Thread

3.  A "Happy" Sentiment

 For my card I used this adorable new frog stamp I just got from the StampTV Set "Little Critters", illustrated by Theresa Momber.   I was disappointed with my stamping on this card, I feel I could have done better, especially with the placement of the sentiment....but hey!  I'm not working for Hallmark!  Also, I was late in getting this card completed so I was in a hurry and it was too late to start over.... (That's my story and I'm sticking to it!)

I'm off to create for another challenge, so have a great day and come on over and join the fun at Outlawz!  It's a great NEW craft community where there's always something fun to do and loads of inspiration to see. 

Ingredients:  Card stock is from GKD Pure Luxury "Fresh Asparagus".  Patterened paper is from Basic Grey's "Offbeat" 6x6 pack.  Button and twine are also from GKD at StampTV.  "Little Critters" stamp set from StampTV.

Thanks for stopping by!

Treasure Chest Blog Hop

WELCOME to the Stamp TV CSS DT ANIMAL KINGDOM CHALLENGE blog hop.  There were 33 StampTV animal stamp sets on the list to choose from and you can imagine how difficult it was to choose which set(s) to play with for this hop.  


If you've come from the very talented Carolina's  blog, you're in the right place.  If not, then we invite you to go to the beginning of the hop and see all of the fabulous animal kingdom creations 


As you go through this hop, be sure to leave a comment on each blog as you hop along.  On Tuesday morning, March 1, we will randomly choose one of the comments from all of the blogs and that person will win a StampTV stamp set of their choice valued up to $24.95.  


I made two cards for this hop:

I wanted to create an interesting back ground as a view through a window for the cute giraffe from Melanie Muenchinger's stamp set, "Just so Hippy", so I used Distress Inks and the rainbow technique.  The grass and the branches were from "Hang in There" by Theresa Momber. I colored the giraffe with Copics. E00, E33 and E57.  CS GK PL "Ivory" and "Tan Leather".  The DP paper I used as a frame is from Basic Grey "Pyrus".  


Here is my second card

Details:  CS GK PL White, Lemon Drop and Fresh Asparagus.  I stitched DP from Basic Grey "Origins" onto the Fresh Asparagus panel then layered it on the Lemon Drop layer that I had stamped a bouquet from the same stamp set with Vivid Lemon Ice ink.  All the images on this card are from the stamp set  by Theresa Momber called "Purr-fectly Delightful".  I colored the kitty with Copic markers, E00, E30, E43, W3, YR14, Y36 and YG17. The cup was colored with YG91 and G94 and cut it out with Nestabilities Round Scalloped die.  I finished it off with white satin ribbon and Prima Flowers.  
Now hop on over to the very talented Deb Felt's blog and see her fantastic creation.  
Thanks for stopping by and have a great weekend!
