Elegant River of Life

The color challenge this week on SCS was to use black, white and river rock. This color combo is elegant and offers the effect of calmness. I used black embossing powder on the flower and the black card stock background.

Happy Stamping!

...and many more!

Make a wish on three! Three challenges for this one card. First I used two different designer papers from Stampin up for Monday's challenge on Splitcoaststampers. Then I used the Sketch layout on Wednesday's challenge. And if I really reach I can count this as Thursday's way to use it (music) with the song "Happy Birthday to you" The second picture shows a little message on the inside of the card. "...and many more".

Happy Stamping!

Always navy

On splitcoaststamper's web site they have a weekly sketch challenge. This is great to help me try new layouts. I stamped with Stampinup's stamp set Always and I also used my cuttlebug for the navy background layer.

thank you bottle hanger

I was surprised this door hanger or in this case a bottle hanger was so easy to complete. This was on the splitcoaststamper web site. I also used it for the challenge to use your own signature (or writing). I wrote "thank you for" and stamped "everything" from the always stampin up set.

envelope of spring

I love this unique idea from splitcoaststampers web site of an envelope pouch. The flowers are embossed.

touch of nature

I used Touch of Nature a set I really like from stampin up. I used Stampin up markers to color the sweet bird.

The color challenge this week was not working for me today. We were to use apricot, real read and ballent blue. I embossd the butterfly after I stamped in black ink I used clear EP and colored the image in with markers. This is a small square card 4 x4.

just because

The inspiration challange today was pretty. I used the same colors and my center square was due to the center pillow on the bed. I embossed with copper EP and Clear EP.
