SAIL AWAY...

I used this weeks MOJO Sketch for today's technique lover's challenge on SplitCoastStampers. I need a masculine birthday card for my brother-in-law and this challenge worked out perfectly with the stamp that I had in mind. I put a small amount of Crystal Effects on the crest of each wave.

Thanks for looking!

CHEERS!!

Happy New Year everyone.  This image cracks me up everytime I see it.  The look on her face is perfect considering she is holding a plunger.  So, out with the old and in with the new.  Here is hoping you have a blessed New Year that doesn't require much use of a plunger.  Cheers!

Stamps: American Art Stamp: Emerson - Cheers!

Paper: various scraps

Ink: stazon, SU! inks

Accessories: aquapainter, liquid pearls, bling, prima, ribbon



Using Up Scraps...

I made this card for the CardMaker Challenge Corner.

I have a HUGE pile of scraps because I refuse to throw paper away. OK, I also have kids who love to stamp and play with paper and they are only allowed to use the scraps. I took a picture of my scrap pile (**embarassed**). The entire card is made from scraps except for the base. I cut the trees from a designer paper scrap that I had. I did add some ribbon and liquid pearls (my new favorite embellishment).

Thanks for looking...
Here is my pile of scraps...

And here is the card I made with some of them.

SEND SOME SNOW...

I combined a couple of challenges from this week. I adapted the color challenge, using colors that I have in my stash and today's Ways to Use It. Loved using those beads that I never know what to do with. I also used this week's Mojo sketch.
This is also for the Fan Club theme: All I want for Christmas. ..... is SNOW!! We have had one of the mildest Decembers on record. Hoping for snow in January.

READY TO RELAX...

Time to kick back and enjoy the holidays.  Love this fun image.  I received it as a RAK, so I'm not sure who makes it.  I used my aquapainters and inks to color the image.  Copics for skin and the bubbles.

Thanks for looking!
