Get well soon

Hello. I'm playing in this week's Freshly Made Sketches with the following card.

The wonky stitch die is from AALL & Create. I used micro-gluedots to adhere it to the cardstock. The bandage dies are from My Favorite Things, as is the get-well sentiment.

I have to admit, I was looking for my bicycle dies to use on this sketch, but ran across the Band-Aids and I was off and running in another creative direction.

Thanks for stopping by!

Simon Says Stamp - Anything goes

Halloween greetings - TSOT#682

Hi, and welcome back to another challenge over at Try a Sketch on Tuesday. This week I went with a Halloween theme for the sketch.

The sentiment is from MFT stamps. I used the shattered background stamp from Tim Holtz Stampers Anonymous line with a light gray ink. Then I added the circles and huge googly eyes. The spider is a brad that I have had in my Halloween stash forever, and the same goes for the ribbon.

Here is a link to the sketch.

Thanks for stopping by.

Joy - SSC372

Hello and welcome back to another challenge over at Sunday Stamps. We have a color challenge this time around. I decided to go mainly with the colors and create a Christmas card.

The big joy is a die from Penny Black. I cut this three times and stacked it up for some dimension. The berry branch is also a die from PB, and the rest are misc dies from different companies.

Just a note

Hi again. I'm cleaning and organizing my craft room today, and that led to some creativity. This one is inspired by the sketch over at Freshly Made Sketches.

The long notebook page was created using an old Papertrey, Ink die. For the lines, I used an old background stamp from My Favorite Things. The clipboard die is from Sizzix/Tim Holtz.

The notebook paper on it is from a patterned paper pad from PTI called pencil me in. The "just a note" is a stamp from the Ink Blot Shop. I thought it was funny how it fit into the lines on the notebook paper.

Thanks for stopping by.

Hello. I'm playing in the Tic Tac Toe challenge today with this tag. It covers the left and rows of the TTT grid.

I stamped the background leaf stamp and heat embossed it in white. Then used watercolors to bring out some of the leaves. The thanks sentiment is from Spellbinders. I used a bit of black twine to wrap around the tag and to tie off the green ribbon at the top.

Thanks for stopping in.
