LRW challenge 154

Gosh it feels good to just play with a new stamp set.

I got the Trees & Things set from CTMH several weeks ago and it's 

perfect for this weeks challenge on the LRW blog

The challenge this week is Fallin' for You

Here's what I came up with....

and I did a little bit of stamping on the inside too....

Maybe you can join the challenge this week?

Little Red Wagon challenge #108

It's been a while since I joined the challenge over on LRW but with the holidays 

fast approaching I just happen to be working on my Christmas cards.

Avril's challenge this week was to make a Christmas themed project........here's one

of the Christmas cards I'm sending out this year.

Most of this card was made and cut on the Silhouette, the car is a print n' cut file, the tree is from 

a Kerri Bradford digital cut kit and the snow was actually intended to be used as a wave.

The only stamping on there is are the snowflakes on the background and the sentiment.

A special thanks to Adriana for suggesting I "tie up" the tree.

Thanks for stoping in today.

LRW: Challenge #92

This weeks challenge......Cause if you liked it then you should have put a critter on it

I had a couple of ideas for this challenge.

First, bookmark corners.....

These are really simple to make, 2 cuts and 3 folds and a little decoration.

I used These instructions to create mine, but there are several tutorials floating around in cyber space.

My little worm reminds me of Lowly worm from the Richard Scarry books for children.

The worm stamp is from Imaginisce and his little hat was made by me.

 The monster was made using circle punches for the eyes and a square punch to notch out teeth.

Inspired by this card  made by Regan from the LRW design team.

I made this card......

I made my own grass fringe with a craft knife and 3 strips of cardstock.

The sun was cut from this My Favourite Things die-namic, the clouds were cut with this 

Papertrey Ink die and the Lion is from an older Close to My Heart stamp set called "Life's a Jungle"

then coloured with copics.

Thanks for stopping in for a visit.

LRW: Challenge #91

It's that time again!

The challenge this week is to heat emboss.

On my card this week the flowers (Hero Arts-dotted flowers) are heat embossed in black on kraft cardstock and cut out,  I used a Cuttle Bug embossing folder for the white background, 

nestabilities die for the frame, stamped a sentiment from CTMH (thank you set) and used Vintage Photo distress ink around the edges of the card and on the center of the frame.

Don't forget to click the LRW logo to check out what everyone else had made.

Thank you for stoping by for a lookie loo !

LRW: Challenge #90

This weeks challenge is to use music notes. As it turns out this was a bit challenging for me as the one thing I own with music on it is the Hero Arts Music background stamp and it's not been used until today.

I made an easel card this week with a wintery theme with the hope that this might be something that I will mail out to some of the people on my Christmas list this year.

Go check out the LRW site by clicking the logo above, there are lots of beautiful cards being posted.

Now I'm going back to class to see what we get to work on today. 

I am taking The Mother Load class with Lain Ehmann over at Big Picture Classes. 

If you can imagine......we will be scrapbooking a layout a day for 26 days once we have finished our "marathon training" which gets us ready for the big event. So far I am really enjoying it !  

I will have more posts about this over the summer.

Thank you for popping in for a look-see today, stay cool.

Little Red Wagon challenge & a little bit of life

This weeks challenge is to use lime, pink & white.

This is what I created....

A bit of Basic Grey paper from the Pheobe line, the Butterfly Dreams set/die and 

Background Basics: Text Style PTI stamp sets. The bling flowers are

from Hero Arts and I believe the border punch is EK Success

Head over to the LRW blog and check out what has been created for this challenge.

A little bit of what's been going on around our house this week......

The hubby re-did the small garden at the front of the house

I took some pics of all the pretty flowers

and my niece was at our place again this week for some more Smashing

Enjoy your weekend!

I'm going out to crop on Saturday with some girlfriends and Sunday I am going

to work on organizing ideas from miss. Stacy Julian and her Photo Freedom book.

Thanks for stoping by.
