Hi everyone!  This is my final card for this years Dare to Get Dirty challenges.  I hope you've been able to play along with us, it is a ton of fun with so many great challenges!  This card is for Jeanne's challenge.  It was super quick to make.  I used my much loved Tiny Textures set from Gina K Designs, stamping in her Powder Blue.  Typically I am not a huge blue fan but this blue is gorgeous!  The sentiment was heat embossed with silver embossing powder and the "you" was cut out with silver paper.  I really need to get glitter paper, that would have been so much fun!!  To finish off this one layer card I added a few sparkly enamel dots.
I hope you enjoy and thanks so much for stopping by today!

Hi everyone!  Today I have a card for Nancy's SCS Dare to Get Dirty challenge.  Oh how I love to play with embossing paste and stencils!  This stencil is from my new Simon Says kit, Seeing Stars.  I spread embossing paste on this fun firework stencil and added glitter.  White it was drying I added the sentiment, from the same kit, heated with silver embossing powder, then added a star and circle sequins.  They seemed to finish off the card nicely.  The panel is up on fun foam.
I hope you enjoy and thanks so much for stopping by today!

Hi everyone!  Today I have a card for Edna's SCS Dare to Get Dirty challenge.  I've been stumped or struggled a bit with some of the challenges this week but I've been having a ton of fun!  This is one of those cards that ideas kept coming as I was working along and I really like the end result.  I used my Instant Camera die from Little Inker Designs to make a little scene.  I sprinkled a lighter blue and darker blue Brusho on watercolor paper to try to give the lighter to darker ocean feel but it didn't work out like I thought it would.  I then took a piece of paper, ripped it, rubbed my Versamark pad over it and heat embossed with Sand embossing powder.  Part of the sailboat was cut out with silver paper, I stamped the sails with my Pinstripe Background stamp and popped the boat up.  I then grabbed my stencil that looks like waves to me, mixed Brusho with embossing paste and spread over the paper.  Not my normal style but so much fun to make!

Hi everyone!  Today I have a card for Sandee's SCS Dare to Get Dirty challenge on SCS.  It seems lately, almost any chance I get, I make a shaker card!  I love them!  They are a bit time consuming but it is worth it, recipients love them, no matter what their age!  For this card I used my Frantic Stamper Large Solid Oranment die and added a variety of sequins and some seed beads and glitter.  I was very generous on this one, there isn't a whole lot of movement when you shake the card!  It is fun to do that once in a while, don't you think?  I was going to add a sentiment but decided against it.  With the large shaker and the holly impression plate, I felt it was enough for the front of the card.
I hope you enjoy and thanks so much for stopping by today!

Hi everyone!  I'm back today with another Dare to Get Dirty card.  For this card I am participating in Tricia's challenge.  I've had this Burger King image from Whipper Snapper for quite some time but it hasn't seen ink yet!  Not sure why, every time I see this image it makes me smile!  Too cute!!  And if it were me grilling, I would have a fire going in the grill just like this guy!  Simple card, Copic coloring, the panel below the image is on a gingham layer that I stamped with my MFT stamp.  I thought it looked a bit like a tablecloth you would put on a picnic table.  I added some sequins because I made a boo boo and they covered it up well!  :)
I hope you enjoy and thanks so much for stopping by today!

Hi everyone!  Today I have a card for my SCS Dare to Get Dirty challenge!  For some reason I was in a bit of a funk and couldn't come up with a whole lot for my challenge, I'm ok with how it turned out, I was just hoping for more of a wow card!  I used my MFT Pinstripe Background and Simon Says Stamp Birthday Bits stamp sets.  The sentiment was heat embossed and the little wooden stars were added to finish off the card.
I hope you enjoy and thanks so much for stopping by today!

Hi everyone!  Today I have a card for Tabbatha's SCS Dare to Get Dirty challenge.  Just last week I received my new Simon Says Stamp kit, Seeing Stars.  I am so in love with this set!!  So much fun!!  I've not done any of the galaxy techniques I've seen and I didn't have a lot of time when making this card so I had to go with a quick version.  I started out by stamping in Versamark and heat embossed with clear embossing power.  I used Chipped Sapphire and Seedless Preserves Distress inks, spritzed with water to blend and then added larger droplets.  I added fun foam to the watercolor panel for dimension.  I really like how this card turned out and it was so much fun to make!
I hope you enjoy and thanks so much for looking!!

Hi everyone!  Today I have a card for a SCS Dare to Get Dirty challenge hosted by Vicki!  I LOVE this Vintage Flowers stamp set from Lil' Inker Designs.  The flower images are just gorgeous and I think stamped with colored ink they stand alone so beautifully!  Though I did throw around coloring them, I chose to use my Brutus Monroe chalk inks (LOVE those!!).  I think the flowers look so pretty!  I used my Antique Linen and Vintage Photo Distress inks and ran them around the panel for a more aged look.  The sentiment is from my Simon Says Happy Birthday set, the font seemed perfect with the flowers!
I hope you enjoy and thanks so much for stopping by today!

dini

Hi everyone!  Today we are starting off the Dare to Get Dirty challenges on Splitcoast!  For the next week we will have several challenges to play in, we would love if you could join us, it's tons of fun!!  My card for today is for dini's challenge.  This one was quite a challenge for me, I didn't read it correctly when I signed up for it so when I went back I had quite a surprise!  Ha!  But it was fun, I'm always up for a good challenge!  I've had the woodgrain panel on my desk for a while, I was puttering around with my card, I had already picked out the lime color, I held the woodgrain up to the lime and it went so well together!  I used my MFT Always and Forever Stamp Set, Ampersand die and Peek a Boo hearts dies.  So fun!
I hope you enjoy and thanks so much for stopping by today!

Stripe

Hi everyone!  Today I have a card for this weeks CASology challenge, the cue card is stripe.  My card is also for Jeanne S and Understand blue's Dare to get Dirty challenges on SCS.  I'm way behind on those, I won't get them all done but I'm going to work like mad this weekend to get as many done as I can!  I used my Willoughby butterfly die, ran the white layer through a second time using my Linen & Canvas Impression plate and cut the button of the white and black layer using my Bracket dies.  I attached a piece of scrap stripe paper behind the butterfly and added a few enamel dots.  Quick, simple, fun card!

I hope you enjoy and thanks so much for stopping by today!

Dino Birthday

Hi everyone!  Today I have a card for this weeks Paper Smooches Sparks challenge and of course I had to play along with some of the Dare to get Dirty challenges on SCS :)  This weeks Sparks challenge is:

 I love my Party Posse set and especially this dino.  Perfect image for little boys birthday cards I think!  I used this image a couple of months ago for my nephew's birthday card!  I used the burlap to create the texture on the dino and cut a couple of small pieces below the image panel. 

I hope you enjoy and thanks so much for stopping by today!

you make me happy

Hi everyone!  Today I have a card for ~Fee~'s Dare to get Dirty challenge on SCS and for this weeks Clean and Simple Stamping's sketch challenge.  I used my Simon Says Bracket die on the white layer and ran it through my machine again with my Linen & Canvas Impression Plate.  I wrapped the ribbon around 1 1/2 times and cut it fishtail.  The sentiment from my Avery Elle So Happy stamp set was cut out with my oval die and up on pop dots.  I randomly attached the black sprinkles and the card was finished!  Quick and simple!

I hope you enjoy and I will see you later with my CAS challenge card!

Thanks so much for stopping by!

Merry Christmas

Hi everyone!  I wanted to share another card I made for the Dare to Get Dirty challenges on SCS.  I had a lot of fun with Heather's challenge!  It's so hot today but the holiday's will be here before we know it and I've been thinking a lot about what I want to do this year.  I don't have gold paper so I took a scratch piece of cardstock and embossed it with gold embossing powder.  I used a holly impression plate and used my Merry Christmas die on the top layer.  Finally I made my bow, this style should be easier for mailing!

I hope you enjoy and thanks so much for stopping by again today!

Rainbow

Hi everyone!  Today I have a card for a few challenges.  First for the Dare to Get Dirty challenges on SCS!!  Today starts the week long challenges, if you aren't a member now is a great time to join!  Second, my card is for this weeks CASology challenge, the cue card is Rainbow and finally for this weeks Freshly Made Sketches challenge.  I used my Mama Elephant True Friend stamp set and Bold Banner die to separate the colors, they didn't blend well together!  

I hope you enjoy and thanks so much for stopping by today!

Chalkboard Birthday

Hi everyone!!  I made this card a while back and it didn't get on the blog for some reason!  I used the chalkboard technique for this card, I love the technique, it is so fun and easy!  I used various birthday sentiments from my Papertrey sets, arranged them on my acrylic block and heat embossed with white embossing powder.  I then sponged white ink trying to make it look like a chalkboard!
I hope you enjoy and thanks so much for stopping by today!

Sweet

Hi everyone!!  The card I have to share is for one of the Dirty Dare challenges from last week.  I have a couple more to share and will try to do that over the next couple of weeks.  We are moving but I still want to share what I made with you!!  This sweet little girl is Bloom Beautifully from Tiddly Inks.  She is so fun to color and I think she stands beautifully on a card by herself and can be used for almost anything!!  I'm really loving using sequins!!  They are so easy, I'm sue you will be seeing lots more once I'm able to stamp again.  :)
I hope you enjoy and thanks so much for stopping by!!
