Paper Craft Crew 222 A Sketch Challenge

It is better late than never right? It is been a buzz of a week... I spent Tuesday afternoon at the vet with a friend and a sick horse instead of getting ready for the cold blast of weather. Then Wednesday and yesterday I spent getting ready for my class this weekend here in Wray! Life has been a whirlwind and I am so thankful that Pam understood when I couldn't get my design team card done for the Paper Craft Crew on time...

This week with the Paper Craft Crew we have a fabulous sketch that I decided to use some new goodies with... My card includes a stamp from the Holiday catalog, the poinsettia from the Annual Catalog and the DSP and Doily is from the upcoming Occasions Catalog! Come and take a look...

My soft base of Sahara Sand was a perfect compliment to the new Falling In Love DSP which will be available to you January 4th, 2017! This will be another paper that caters to my fond addiction to Blushing Bride! I matted this lovely paper with the Sweet Sugar Plum card stock. You will notice on the bottom picture that my banner was embossed with the new Hexagon Dynamic embossing folder. This as well as the Lace Doily which is Very Vanilla on one side and Whisper White on the other will also be available on January 4th. I did some fun Metallic Copper Thread loops and adhered it to the card with a few Stampin' Dimensionals. My lovely heat embossed Copper sentiment is from the soon retiring Tin of Tags set. Hope you have a fabulous weekend!

Stamp Ink Paper 76 Embossing Challenge

Happy Tuesday! I hope all of you had a fabulous Thanksgiving and didn't eat too much! I was just talking to Troy about left overs. Which I must say that most of them are gone except the Mashed Potatoes. I only used 4 more potatoes than I would for a regular supper and still have tons left over! So if you have a good recipe for left over mashed potatoes let me know.

This week on the Stamp Ink Paper Challenge we are challenging you to Emboss! So simple, right? You can either heat emboss or use your favorite embossing folder, we aren't that picky. Have fun with it, I will show you what I came up with...

I must confess it took 4 hours to get the card done... Stella couldn't get her groove back! Last week for our color challenge I had an idea that OBVIOUSLY didn't happen with the Merry Medley background stamp being heat embossed on the Very Vanilla... Well I don't always throw my ideas completely away! I instead re-purposed it... I used the largest stitched circle out of our Stitched Shapes Framelits and then layered it onto a Tip Top Taupe scalloped circle from the Layering Circles collection. I really wasn't sure what I was going to use to embellish this once I had inked up the Hardwood stamp with Mint Macaron. Reason for The Season was sitting next to me from last weeks card and I really hadn't used the poinsettia in it. So that too was inked up in Mint Macaron and the outline was done with heat embossed copper on the Very Vanilla. I used paper snips to fussy cut it out and adhered it with some Copper Metallic Thread loops with Stampin' Dimensionals. A quick little knot of the crochet trim and this card was done!

Thank You so much for stopping by I can't wait to see what you emboss for this challenge!

So my fun card started with the Touches of Texture set! I stamped the spattered background in Pool Party ink and the vintage lace like border was heat embossed in copper! My Sweet Sugar Plum tree from the Peaceful Pines Bundle is adorned with heat embossed copper dots! I did some quick Metallic Copper Thread loops behind the tree and attached it with Stampin' Dimensionals! My lovely sentiment is from Reason for the Season, it too is heat embossed in copper. A Pool Party matte on a Copper Foil card base was just the right touch with my Fancy Frost Sequins!
