Dance With Me PTT# 48

This pretty ballerina is a digi stamp from the collection of stamps by Paper Shelter. I thought she was a good choice for Party Time Tuesday's Anything Goes Challenge this week. To check out their challenges see:

I chose to use a piece of designer paper for the background and punched the edge with an EK punch. I added a purple die cut frame trimmed in pale pink pearls to encircle the image. I added a flower made from Tim Holtz's Sizzlits Decorative Strip Die and bling to complete this dainty card. I like this flower that the strip die makes because it travels well in the mail and does not make the card too bulky.
Thanks for stopping by.

I Don’t Want Life To Imitate Art .....PTT#48

I created this card for Party Time Tuesday's Anything Goes challenge (PTT #48) this week. Join the fun and check out their challenges at:

http://partytimetuesdays.blogspot.com/

When I was looking through my stash of unmounted rubber stamps and came across this rubber stamp that I have never used and I am not sure who the company is that made such a beautiful stamp. I think the lady is very interestingly dressed in a colourful patterned outfit. The stamp has a quote written on the brim of the hat by Carrie Fisher: "I don't want life to imitate art. I want life to BE art."
 
I coloured the image with my markers and glitter pen and added some bling. I then layered the image with some interesting papers and added round paper clips that mimic the design on her face and dress. Lastly I added the word "Life" using a stamp by Stampin Up and the word "Art" with letters from an alphabet set.

Hope you enjoyed the card. Thanks for stopping by.

Pink, Yellow and Blue

Tonight I was working on another card swap for the Inky Fun Stampers. The theme of this monthly swap is the colours pink, yellow and blue. I chose to use a rubber stamp by Whippersnapper Designs called Stack O' B'day Cakes. I love this quirky lopsided birthday cake and I thought it was a good choice for this colour theme.

Thanks for stopping by and have a creative day

Rain Or Shine Your A Friend of Mine

I created this twist on the telescope card was done using a Nestibilities die cut shapes and several different stamps from my collection of rubber stamps. The sentiment is a unmounted stamp I have had for years and the rain, sun, cloud, tulips and boots are from a stamp set call April showers by Flourishes.

The two girls with the umbrella are a digi stamp by Paper Shelter. I added a couple of die cut butterflies, brads and some bling to complete the card.

It is nice to be able to make a non holiday card.

Thanks for stopping by.

H is for Howdy

The card I have been working on tonight is a card for an upcoming card swap with my stamping Yahoo group the Inky Fun Stampers. The theme of the swap is “H is for .....”.

I chose to make a card using an unmounted stamp I had in my stash of three horses. The stamp is called "Three Beauties" and is by Coronado Island Designs and Stamps.

Do you remember this “Howdy” sentiment stamp from Stampin Up. It was part of a set with a little cowboy and his wooden pony.

I kept this card simply just layering coordinating papers and adding a brad. Well back to my craft room to clean up my mess.

Have a creative day. Judy

New Years 2012

This card was created for an upcoming swap I have with one of the Yahoo groups I belong to called The Inky Fun Stampers. One of this month’s swap challenges was to create a New Years card. The little guy spray painting the upcoming year on the wall is a free digi image by Sliekje’s Digi Stamps. I love the little blue jean outfit he is wearing.

You can find more free stamps by Sliekje’s Digi Stamps at: http://sliekje.blogspot.com/

After giving the image some colour I added stars in red and silver. I then punched the corners with a star corner punch that I have had for years and I believed never used. I then added some bling and a sentiment to complete the card.

The card is quite colourful and welcoming of the new year.

Have a creative day.

Red and Green Christmas PTT #46

It is challenge #46 at Party Time Tuesday this week and the theme of the challenge is Red and Green Christmas.

http://partytimetuesdays.blogspot.com/

This Christmas mouse digi is by Sliekje’s Digi Stamps and I coloured it with my Copics. You can find more of their stamps at: http://sliekje.blogspot.com/

I searched my stash and found some pieces of pattern Christmas paper left over from other projects to layer on my card. I added glitter, ribbon, cord, a button and bling to add additional interest.

Well back to my craft room to do some clean up. I think I have one more Christmas card to make.

Have a creative day.
