Gettin' Beachy

School is back in session, virtally, of course and I want to go to the beach.  So.... Two challenge cards to post today. The first card is for CAS on Friday (Nature) (which I missed the linkup to), The Card Concept , Just Add Ink , Time Out Challenge and Sunday Stamps (which I ALSO missed the linkup to, grrrrr). I did this card twice, well actually 3 times, but twice that I liked :).  The card on the right was first.  I stamped Hero Arts Layering Waves on Stratmore Bristol watercolor paper with Stampin' Up ink: Seashore Spray, Misty Moonlight and Sahara Sand.  Then I brushed the sky with Soft Sky, Baja Breeze, Fresh Fig and Pale Plum.  I stamped the sentiments in Versamark and embossed with Hero Arts Sand embossing powder.  The sailboat is from OLLLDDD retired SU Toy Box stamped in Versamark Obsidian Black and colored with Whisper White craft ink.  Last, I made foam with Nuvo Crystal Drops in Ivory Seashell.  I thought the sunset purple was a...

First Christmas card of the year

Oh yes, a Christmas card in April.  But I just couldn't help it.  See there is a lovely challenge from Merry Monday Christmas Challenge to build a snowman and then Mojo Monday had some lovely circles to play with and look what happened!!!  Frozen is so HOT right now that I just had to do it!   I don't do such intricate punching very often.  In fact this is the 2nd face I did because the first one looked maniacal.  This one the glue dried too quickly and messed up the paper before the eyes were placed correctly.  Sigh... I'll be playing with this one again to see if I can expidite the process and get a better result.  The arms and hair are hand cut, the eyes, nose and charcoal were punched with the mini circle punch and trimmed.  The colors are not your ordinary combo for Christmas, but I just love Baha Breeze (I miss it so!) and Island Indigo and Raspberry Ripple look great with it.  I used a bit of retired Sale-a-Bration In...

Fall is in the air

September is here and Texas has cooled to fall temperatures in a hurry.  55 yesterday!  Time to play outside until it heats up again, as it always does. The first card uses some new fall items from Simon Says Stamp and one old Stampin Up stamp. I started with a base of Strathmore Bristol watercolor paper.  I brushed the background through the new SSS Autumn Splendor stencil with Stampin' Up Crumb Cake, Cajun Craze, Mint Macaron and Chocolate Chip.  The sentiment and pumpkins are from the new SSS Pumpkin Spice Season stamp set, embossed in SU gold on Mint Macaron card stock.  The pumpkins are colored with Cajun Craze Stampin' Blends and Chocolate Chip Stampin' Write marker.  Last, the coffee cup is from retired SU stamp set Merry Cafe.   This card is being entered into: Hand Stamped Sentiments , Festive Friday Challenge (leaves, gold, green, brown), the Watercooler Challenge , and Sunday Stamps.
