SPCC 35

Hey there! Isn't this a fun color combo? Thanks to Samantha from SPCC for coming up with the combo for this weeks challenge! Head on over to SPCC to check out the rules, all the other Diva's creations, the other fabby entries and the PRIZE PACK! Woohoo! Again, thanks to Samantha for being the sole sponsor at SPCC.

I must admit when I saw this combo I was thinking fancy summer drinks and lots of Crystal Effects, but maybe that's my mid winter blues kicking in?!? ;o) Anyway, as it turned out, I needed a Birthday card for my BFF's daughter, so here it is! (and I still got to use my Crystal Effects!)Happy 2nd Birthday G-Girl!

Happy 60th!

Hiya Girlies! I'm ba-aaack. The move is complete, the studio is set up, and I am anxious to get back to creating! I thought I'd start off the New Year with a bang, and the Mojo Monday site had this fabby sketch ( http://mojomonday.blogspot.com/2010/01/mojo-monday-120-contest.html )which I had to use. A co-worker placed an order for a very girlie 60th Birthday card, and I think this is about as girlie as it gets! ;0) Hope you all enjoy it.

Hello again...it's me and my Christmas spirit once again! ;o) I have a few obsessions right now...one being my Fa La La Slice cartridge, the other being Christmas! I haven't broken out the Christmas tunes yet...I may have to put them on my i pod so I am the only one being inflicted by them this early, but boy, I tell you, I am looking forward to hearing them! Hee!

Ok, the colors for this card came from the Our Creative Corner Site. Click here for the swatch and to see all the other beauties http://ourcreativecorner6.blogspot.com/2009/09/occ-challenge-yummy-color-combo.html . The layout is a very loose interpretation of Jen delMuro's sketch over here http://iheart2stamp.com/2009/09/19/sketch-for-you-to-try-29/ . I've previously posted my original entry for that sketch, but the sketch was so inspiring, my brain started going other directions with it, and voila! The above card was developed!

Ingredients (all SU! unless otherwise noted):

Pretty in Pink Classic Ink, Pink Pirouette CS, Melon Mambo Stampin' Write and CS, Whisper White CS, Chocolate Chip CS and Craft Ink, Glassy Glaze, Heat Tool from Marvy, Ribbon from Michaels, Button from Forever in Time (though I altered the color with the craft ink, and 2 layers of glassy glaze which I heat set)Fa La La Slice Cartridge.

SFYTT, SPCC #16

It's beginning to feel a lot like Christmas! I have been busily prepping my teachers, daycare, neighbor gifts the last few weeks, and I see my Christmas Spirit has carried over to my cards. You'll have to bear with me for the next little bit...the challenges are a great way to get my own Holiday Cards made without a lot of fuss! ;o)

This card was made for two challenges, the sketch came from Jen delMuro's "I {Heart} to Stamp" Site (click here for the sketch and all the other fabby entries http://iheart2stamp.com/2009/09/19/sketch-for-you-to-try-29/ ), and the colors come from Samantha's SPCC Site (click here for the color swatch and to see the other beautacious entries http://spcolorcombos.blogspot.com/2009/09/spcc16.html ). I love how these colors are totally nontraditional Christmas colors, yet, the cool, crisp way they come together really look great in a card with snowflakes! Also, stay tuned for another variation of the sketch...I really altered it for an upcoming post (so much so that I'm not sure if I'll submit it to Jen, but it's still needing a link to the original sketch), as the original sketch totally inspired me!
