Another Dirty Challenge!

Here is one more card for the Dirty Dare 08 Challenges...I have had a blast making cards! Although I have combined a lot of challenges, I did make a lot of cards and it was fun working within the parameters of the combined challenges!

For this card I combined several of the challenges! I used Carole's Challenge to make a card using real red, yo yo yellow and Brilliant blue. Then there was Natasha's Challenge to make a card using her sketch and last, but not least, there was Amy's challenge to make a card that measured 3 1/4 by 6 1/2 (I cheated a bit, my card only measures 3 1/4 x6 because I wanted to make a top folding card to fit in the sketch!)

What you'll need:

Stamps: A little birdie told me

Ink: Staz-on Black, Markers in real red, yo yo yellow, brilliant blue and bashful blue

Paper: real red, yo yo yellow, brilliant blue

Accessories: ribbon, paper piercing tool, crystal effects and SU! SAB rub-ons

I don't know if you can tell or not, but there is a line of crystal effects dots under the brillian blue layer...I think it looks pretty neat, and uses the part of Amy's challenge to use somehting clear on my cards!

Thanks for looking!

WOW twice in one day!

Hello all, Just wanted to come back by and show you some things I have been working on! Isn't this the cutest little gift set? I got a pack of 5 little bags that measure 4x5 at Walkmart yesterday and I just had to embelish them! So todays challenge on splitcoast was to use rub-ons and use them I did! I used them on the bag to aff a little extra somrhting somehting. I used them on the notepads for a sentiment, and I used them on the magnets as well. Ididn't used them on the pens, but aren't they fab! I just love the look and feel of a micro beaded pen!

All these projects and just one sheet of 6inch x 6 inch piece of designer paper! Man I'm thrifty!!!

See the ribbon on the magnet? I used my Crop-a-dial to punch a hole so that I could tie a little piece of ribbon through it! I also used a rub-on and them topped the whole thing with crystal effects to make it look more polished or some would say finished! I hope you like it!!!

Thanks again for stopping by!

Under 10 minute Thank you!

So this card litterally took me less than 10 minutes to create...and I really do like how it turned out! The colors are spingy and the layout is simple and sweet! Although there is no stamping on this card...it has a purpose and a bunch of bright springy colors! I actually made this card for the Inspiration challege on Splitcoaststampers and todays inspiration was just bursting with color. I toned it down a little and used some designer paper that I won from Diana's Blog last week...and my suprize gift of Rub-ons.

Thanks for stopping by, I hope you like my super simple super fast card!

Moments to Cherish!

Okay so I am totally one of those people that totally says, "I am NEVER going to forget that!" and then low and behold I have totally forgotten what it was I wasn't going to forget, and I'm talking about those special moments. YOu know the cute little things the kids do or say...so I have decided to remidy that! My niece Meghan spent the night and we decided to get busy and alter some books that I got at Target this week. I got extremely lucky! I bought both of these adorable books for only $2.59 and that included the pen! Not to mention the fact that they are pink...my ULTIMATE favorite color! Anywho, when I saw them I totally knew that they would match Stampin' Up's Purely pomegranate cardstock and I NEEDED to get them right away! So I got one for me and one for Meghan...and being the totally awesome girl that she is... we picked the same paper to decorate our books with! I know I know she is the best! (I love this little gal!

Supplies:
No Stamps
Rub-ons: Eastern Elegance
Paper: Bali Breeze, Shimmery White CS
Accessories: purely pomegranate satin ribbon, chocolate chip grosgrain ribbon, scallop punch, 1 3/8 circle punch, 1 1/4 circle punch, sheer polka dot ribbon (thanks Sara!!)

We met when she was almost 2 and she is going to be 11 this year...where has all the time gone? I love spending time with her, she is very creative and a sweetheart...plus she loves the Lord, what more could you want from a girl (well, I guess the fact that she thinks I'm cool and likes to craft with me makes it even sweeter!) Anyways I hope you like the altered book! And here is a picture of Meghan and I...just so you can put a face to the names! Thanks for looking!



And here are some of the other things Meghan made while she was here...pretty talented wouldn't you say! She designed and created them all by herself!!!
