Designer's Choice Challenge at Repeat Impressions

Hi blog friends,

It's time for another Designer's Choice Challenge at The House That Stamps Built and it's a challenge from Christy this week.  Christy would like to see us make a slide or pull card.  I have to say, I rarely make this style of card but it was so much fun. 

For my card I chose to make a "flip" or "waterfall" card and RI has a great tutorial on how to create one HERE  and if you'd like the cards all cut for you, they have those too.....HERE

 
Here's my card.  I used #7201-W Rose.  It was difficult for me to get a good photo of the "flip", the process is that you pull on the ribbon bottom and the rose grows (in panels) from a bud to a full rose and you can then put your greeting on the full area under the last panel.   Here's a look at the inside when the pull has been extended.  It's a very easy and simple interactive card to make....give it a try.

 
Check out the other Rock Stars for more inspiration and see their slide and pull cards.
 
 
Please join us in Christy's challenge.  Create a slide or pull card and link it to The House's blog in Christy's challenge area and you will then be entered in a drawing to win some fabsulous RI stamps (maybe a flip stamp).  And remember....if you use an RI stamp, you'll be entered in the drawing TWICE. 
 
Thank you for stopping by and thank you, Christy....this was a fun challenge!!!

CAS Making Music at Outlawz

Hi blog friends....

For all you CAS bloggers, there's a new CAS challenge posted at Outlawz, with some fantastic prizes to win.  Head on over and post your CAS cards with a music theme. 

It's my turn to challenge and here it is:
"Let's Make Music Together"....Music makes the world go 'round and it's been said is the "universal language". I think it's safe to say, we all love some form of music whether its a song, a melody, a genre of music, or songs of nature (birds). Let's release some music this week. Create a CAS card that shows something that depicts music. (Think musical notes, instruments or creatures of song)

Here's my creation for the challenge 


This card uses M-Bossibilities, Memory Box dies and a stamp from SmartARTworks.

Keep a song in your heart and thanks for stopping by.  I hope you'll play along with the CAS challenge at Outlawz.

Designer's Choice Challege at Repeat Impressions

Happy New Year, blog friends! 
I wish you all good health and great happiness in 2013! 

It's time for another designer's choice challenge at Repeat Impressions/The House That Stamps Built and this time it's Joy's turn and she has challenged us to create a card showing snow.   This past week, we had a big nor'easter that dumped over a foot of fresh snow on us so it was easy to get in the mood to create a "snow" card. 

Lots of sledding going on these days with school out and all this fresh snow on the ground.  I couldn't resist using this stamp #2104-H "Boy with Sled".  I also used last week's What If? Wednesday's D2612 sketch for the bg.  I'm getting a lot of milage out of the sentiment stamps #4306-F "Got Snow". 

Please join me and my Rock Star Teamies in Joy's challenge this week.  After posting your card to your blog, link it up with the link at The House for a chance to win $25.00 worth of Repeat Impression Stamps.  If you use Repeat Impression stamps, you'll be entered twice.  So, come on over and play along and have some fun with us. 

 
Also, there's still time to play along with the WIW Sketch - We will be accepting submissions to this D2612 Sketch Challenge until 5pm EST on January 8th. All participants will be automatically entered into our random drawing. Then on January 9th we will post a new challenge. Once we start our February challenges we’ll announce the winner for January. One lucky person will win a $25 Repeat Impressions Gift Certificate!
 
Also, Repeat Impressions has a Rock Star position opening up on our Design Team! Are you addicted to stamping? Love to make cards as often as possible? Have a blog to show off all your wonderful creations? Do you enjoy a challenge and play well with others? You could be a Rock Star in the making! Please drop Wendy a note at wendy@repeatimpressions.com if you would like more information.
 
Thanks so much for stopping by!  We can't wait to see what you will create using Joy's challenge or our WIW sketch challenge!  Have Fun!
