May SID- Rest and Relax

Hello and welcome to my May post for Stick It Down!

Here is my card based on this months sketch, I decided to use and image with it's matching die cut. Colored a die cut flower and added some gems to the sentiment panel to finish the card.

MLC- May

Welcome to May and our new month of  Merry Little Christmas challenge christmas blog. This month is as always anything goes!

 This month I made for cards using the A and B sides of some pattern paper from the stash. I used the same layout for the card to pick and choose how the paper was going to be adhered down. The top of the card is actually folded back and stuck down with the pattern paper adhered on top. I then just added the sentiment on a die cut piece of white. They could be jazzed up a little more, but I choose to leave them clean and simple. This is a good way to use up some paper stash... if you are like me and have way more pattern paper then you need and keep buying more! ;-)

I hope you visit all my teammates to see what they created this month and join us on the blog for the challenge, can't wait to see what you create!

Thanks for stopping by and have a great day!

Hello and happy April! It's a new month again and the means time for a new challenge over at Merry Little Christmas challenge blog! The challenge is Anything goes as long as it's christmas. Here is my card for the month. 

I used a mix of two Hero Arts sets for the card, one for the sentiment and the other for the ornaments. Once the sentiment was stamped I added the ornaments underneath and then drew the strings for them to hang from. Added a small strip of some stripe paper to finish the card. 

Hope to see you over at the Merry Little Christmas blog this month. Thanks for stopping by and have a great day!!!

Hello everyone and welcome to my March card for Stick It Down sketch challenge! Here is a look at the card sketch for this month.


Here is my card using the sketch, I stayed true to the sketch this time using some die cut stars as my design down the sides of my main image. The main panel is stamped using a Catherine Pooler designs image from the March Club Canvo stamp set. I used markers to color the images and the background around the balloons.  

Please don't forget to join us over at Stick It Down to play along. We also have two layout sketches if you want to play along with the scrapping teams! Can't wait to see what you create!

It's the first of the month and time for a new challenge for us at Merry Little Christmas challenge blog! As always our challenge is Anything Goes as long as it's Christmas. 

This month I went with a CAS look using some Stampin' Up stamps in my stash. I love the coffee cup... well frankly I just love coffee, so I'll use any excuse to use a coffee set! 

Just stamped the card away, used some platter stamps for behind the coffee cup and added some little bling to call the card finished. 

I hope you visit all my teammates to see what they created this month and join us on the blog for the challenge, can't wait to see what you create!

Thanks for stopping by and have a great day!

Feb SID- Stand Tall

Welcome to my card for February's Stick It Down sketch. Here is a look at the sketch...


Here is my take on the sketch. I used pattern stamps to create the side strips. Using the same colors I stamped the flamingo scene on a die cut oval. Inked up the edges for a little more definition from the cardbase.

Thanks for stopping by and I can't wait to see what you make with our February sketch. Don't forget we also have two sketches for scrapbook layouts if you scrap too!
