Stampin' Royalty Challenge #43

The challenge this week over at Stampin' Royalty is a sketch challenge.

I love sketch challenges. It gives you a starting point and sometimes it may look like the sketch or it's slightly changed. I needed to create a birthday card for my friend's son who just turned one and as you know boy/male cards are always a challenge for me. This is what I came up with. Enjoy.

Stampin' Royalty Challenge #42

The challenge this week over at Stampin' Royalty is Ribbons, Ribbons and Ribbons.

I've had this recipe box for years now, I'd say at least more than 3 years and I haven't been inspired to cover it. I've always wanted to decorate it but I just couldn't figure out how I wanted it done. When I found out that Ribbons was the challenge this week I figured it was time to get inspired and face this task. I didn't think I would like the Greenhouse Gala Designer Series Paper but now I absolutely love it. I have several other DSP's but I find myself coming back to this frequently.

Stampin' Royalty Challenge #40

The challenge this week over at Stampin' Royalty is a colour challenge and let me tell you...it was a huge challenge for me and this is what I came up with. I like these colour challenges because it makes me use colours that I haven't used in awhile or even together.


Ever since we left Toronto I've been meaning to create Thank You cards for Connor's teachers at the day care in Brampton (Ontario) but I just haven't found the time. I think I'll have to make 3 more of these for his teachers and send them off with their little gifts.

The three flowers were stamped using Chocolate Chip ink pad but I just didn't re-ink the stamp. I just stamped it three times to create the faded look.
