January Technique Challenge

A Crafty Hello to you!
This week at Come and Get It, we are having technique week and I'm hosting the Challenge so we'd like you to use the Faux Tile Technique.
Which can be found at Split Coast Stampers here as well as a short YouTube video.

Images used are Bildmalarna stamp Mimosa "sorry" and I paired her with the sitting cat.

Actually I masked her and stamped the cat so that he is a little in the background, colored, cut with spellbinders, then cut image in 6 pieces and covered with SU Crystal Effects. 

Using an A2 folder dry embossed the pink cut out, distress the edges.

Sentiment is from Stampin'Up! called Fabulous Phrases that was punched with the word window and adding a few flowers.

Doesn't Mimosa have that adorable forlorn look

Sitting pretty kitty cat..........we'd love to have you challenge a friend and join us at Come and Get It!

So glad that you came by today........please show some love with a comment!

CGI Sketch Challenge

Sketch Challenge at Come and Get It

Hey there, it's my week to come up with a sketch for the challenge over at CGI. Well my card was just a tad bigger than I wanted so I decided to try and make an Easel card.....It's my very first time to make one and I'm pretty pleased on how it came out!  I'm going to submit my card for some other challenges at Fussy & Fancy, Delightful Sketches and Crazy 4 Challenges

Flowers & Sparkle

Awhile back I ordered some McGill punches to make flowers after I watching some videos on You Tube and I finally broke down and played with them.  I had so much fun making the flowers with the punches, I'm totally hooked!   Now on to my card .......I used a nestabilities for the background which my little angel Bildmalarna &; bear are sitting on, then added my homemade flowers and lots of stickles for sparkle.  I'm entering my card for a couple challenges Flowers at The Crafty Pad as well as Sparkle at  SSCC

Yeppers here's my little angel with her bear!

Bildmalarna Angel

I've been having too much fun with these stamps and decided to show you another version using the same sketch with a different image......We had 45 degree weather and guess what it SNOWED!!!  Yes Nature is playing her nasty tricks again, everything was white and pretty again  LOL

Here a close-up of my little Angel I highlighted her wings with a light blue and added some sparkle

Black & White Photo Wallet

I was surfing the web the other day and came across this Photo Wallet that someone did and I really liked it but, it had no instructions for making one..........well I spend a few more days on my search, finally came across more videos with the wallets

Low and behold my searching paid off after several videos later on You Tube......Stamping Holly has the instructions!!

Believe it or not, it's made with one 12 x 12 sheet of designer paper SU flower punch to make the tabs on the inserts.........which by the way has a total of (8) usable pockets.  I think I should give a class on this .......what do ya think?  LOL

Thanks for stopping in!

Out for Publication~~~Angel Bears Sketch Challenge @ SSCC

I couldn't wait to get my new Bildmalarna stamps.   I fell in love with these little angel bears when I saw them, and couldn't resist ordering them but they just happened to be a CHA pre-order so I had to wait longer than usual. Oh the rustic water pump reminded me of the one that we would use (and fight over as kids just to see who could get the most water out with one pump) when we went to a family friends house eons ago.
