Stampin' for the Weekend Challenge #20

This week's challenge is a sketch. All the papers are digital scrapbooking papers, the flowers are by Tracey Lynn Miller.

Two-fer-One Challenge

Stamp Something Challenge Blog is having a Brown Plus Something Challenge, where the main color must be brown with other colors. Stampin' for the Weekend is also having a color challenge with the colors Orange, Brown and Leafy Green.

Since these two challenges were so awesomely similar, I am submitting one card for both challenges. The Pilgrim girl is by Inger Harding Design and is colored with BIC markers and Prismacolor pencils. The flower and leaves are by Tracey Lynn Miller of Fred,She Said Designs The green paper is a digital scrapbooking paper by Terrell Sanzone. The orange paper and brown cardstock are unknown.

Stampin' for the Weekend Challenge #14

This week's challenge is a color challenge. It is an unusual trio - orange, teal, and pink. I went simple to accent the colors. I used digital papers by Kay Eflin and a digi-stamp by Tracey Miller at Fred, She Said.

Stampin' for the Weekend Challenge #12

This week's challenge is 'Pink and Grey'. The bird stamp is a hand-carved one I made myself. The flowers are 'Fred's Faux Foldy Flowers' by Tracey Miller at Fred, She Said Designs......The Store and everything else came from my stash. The flowers were base colored with BIC permanent pens and detailed with Prismacolor pencils blended with baby oil.

Two Fer One Challenge(s)

This week, I'm doing two challenges that ended up working well using the same entry.

Over at Stamp Something they have a challenge to use a charm in your design. Mine is the brass heart in the upper left hand corner.

At Stampin' for the Weekend, the challenge is to follow a sketch to create your design. The sketch is here on the blog.

My design was too large to make into a card with the supplies I have, so I made a wall hanging. I don't have all the latest toys like personal die cutters, so sometimes my cuts are not quite perfect. I figure that proves its handmade. :) The stamped image is by Stampin' Up!, the gold embossed paper word charm is from Hot Off the Press, the flowers are by Fred, She Said Designs, everything else is just stash. I mounted the piece on comic book baking board, which is acid-free and VERY sturdy.

Stampin for the Weekend Challenge #9

This week's challenge at Stampin' for the Weekend is "Alterations". I decided to work a little magic on a fast food item. This is a cup used for fried foods at a local conveinience store:

NOW it is a hangable Halloween decoration that can be filled with candies or dried flowers. I used scrapbooking paper, cardstock, eyelets, ribbon and glitter glue for the transformation.

Stampin' for the Weekend Challenge

I guess I'm on a bit of a roll this week! :) This is for another challenge site I discovered: Stampin' for the Weekend. This site uses good old-fashioned rubber stamps to create with. They post a new challenge every Friday. this week's challenge was 'masking'

Since most of my stamps are smaller images, I created an ATC for my submission. Every element was masked by the time I finished stamping. I colored everything in Prismacolor pencils.
