Thoughts of You

Today's card is for the Stampin' Queen's Sketch Challenge.  I had a few different ideas going around in my head, but it seems like a couple of the other ladies had the same ideas as me.  Wait, I think I have that wrong.  Since they did theirs first I guess I had the same idea as a couple of them. lol  So I went back to work and finally came up with this card.  I wish the shimmer paint showed up better in the picture, but I've come to realize my pictures will never look as nice as a card does in person.





Thanks for looking and have a great day!

Everyday Enchantment

Today's card is another one from my March stamp a stack.  I don't use DSP very often and wanted to give it a try, so I checked around to see what other ladies were making out of the Everyday Enchantment DSP.  I really loved a card that Ann Schach did on The Paper Players last week, so this card was inspired by her.

RHSSC26

Wow, I thought last week's challenge was a little bit difficult to come up with, but I didn't think I was ever going to get this card done.  Usually I can look at the design and make the card, take pics, edit them and do my blog in about an hour.  Not this week!  Maybe if I started it before 12:30 in the morning it would help!  I'm going to be needing a nap that's for sure!  So now onto my card for sketch challenge 26...



Head on over to the  Red Hot Stampers blog to check out a few more cards made with this challenge.

RHSSC25

It's time for another Red Hot Stamper's Challenge.  When I first saw this sketch I had no idea what to do with it since the sketch is like an envelope.  Then I stared thinking about making a rose with the new Blossom punch just to see how that would turn out.  I must say this has been the most challenging sketch challenge so far, but I do love a good challenge. :)  Head on over to the Red Hot Stampers blog to check out a few other cards using this sketch.

SQSC27 ~ The Paper Players ~ Open Sea

Today's card is for a couple of challenges.  I've missed making cards for the different challenges out there, so I decided to use them to help me come up with cards for my March stamp a stack.   I used Stampin Queens Sketch Challenge 27  for my design and The Paper Players Challenge 83  (CAS masculine) to decide what to put on it.
