What If? Wednesday at Repeat Impressions!!

We're rock'n those challenges this week, blog friends! 

It's Wednesday and that means it's time for a What If? Wednesday sketch challenge at The House That Stamps Built

Every two weeks, Wendy provides us with a sketch and challenges us to create a card with it. What's in it for you?  We hope you'll play along with us and if you, once you've linked up your creation on the blog page, you'll be entered in the drawing to win $25.00 gift certificate for some fabulous Repeat Impressions Stamps.  AND if you use RI stamps in your creation....you'll be entered in the drawing twice!  So come along and play with us. 

Here's Wendy's WIW sketch and what I created using it...

 
 
For this card I used RI Stamp #309-N "Winter Birds".  I love these little birds, their faces are so dang cute and they're so much fun to color! 
 
I embossed two layers with diffrernt ef.  One layer is cs and the other is dp which I distressed with DI, Antique Linen.  I also cut a ribbon of cs in the sand color and ran it through a ef too.  I used a MS pine branch punch and Copic Markers to color the birds and blend a "sky" bg.  The tiny pine cone is one of hundreds I collected last fall at our cabin at the lake.  I added just a touch of Stickles Crystals to it. 
 
That's it....thanks for stopping by.  Now it's your turn....we hope you'll play along with us - here are my Rock Star teamies to give you tons more inspiration.

Stephanie has challenged us to create something with a number on it  - you can check it out HERE for some creative fun.

Here's her challenge:
 
It's a "Numbers" Challenge:
Did you know that December 10th is Dewey Decimal System Day? I remember looking up these numbers religiously for book reports back in middle and high school. This week, we challenge you to create a CAS card featuring numbers. Use them on a background panel or as a focal point.....It should be as easy as 1, 2, 3!
 
Here is my card for Stephanie's challenge
 
 
Another Christmas card completed!!!
 
Thanks for stopping by and I hope you'll come on over and play along with the CAS DT at Outlawz this week!!!!

Hi there blog friends,

We're here with another fun challenge by one of our Rock Stars for The House That Stamps Built.  This time it's Patti's turn and she's challenging us to "Bags and Tags".  Well, after all....'tis the season!!!

I decided to create some tags - cuz I always need them for my packages - and I just love, love, love this tiny penquin stamp from Repeat Impressions.  He makes the most adorable tag.  By the way...he has two friends and they all get along and love to make tags and cards for winter or for the holidays.  You'll want to hug them because theu're so cute and you'll love them so much.

Here are my cards for my dear friend and Rock Start, Patti's Designer's Choice Challenge.

 
Patti, has asked us to invite you to also play along with her challenge.  Just post your creation of her challenge to your blog or online gallery, then head on over to The House and link it up for the challenge.  You'll be entered in a win for $25.00 gift certificate for some fabulous RI stamps AND if you use a RI stamp, you'll be entered in the drawing twice; doubling your chances. 
 
Check out my Rock Star Teamies for more inspiration for Patti's fabulous challenge.
