You say it's my Birthday!

This week over at the corrosive challenge is the Birthday challenge. I chose a more elegant card. I used the stamp set Awash with flowers and sponged regal rose on the flowers and certainley celery on the leaves. The front card is is textured with a the cuttlebug.

Sketch Week/Mama's Day

Sketch Week

This week at the corrosive challenge is sketch week. Here is the sketch if you would like to play along.

I used a stamp,which I love, from this month's sponser-Queen Kat Designs. I was inspired by the stamp to use a sewing theme. I made the spools of thread(I know a little rough-but it was my first time) and the squares are made with designer paper and then ran through the cuttlebug to give a quilted look.

Sunday is Mother's Day, so I want to wish all the moms, moms to be and mom in laws a very happy day of rest and pampering. I thought I would include the two mom cards I made. The first one is for my mom and the second is for my mother in law.

Turquoise, Pink and Black

This week at the corrosive challenge is to use Turquoise, pink and black. I love this Penny Black image. I coloured him with Copics and used Stampin up tulip border for the frame. This was a case from a sample in the latest Stampin Success magazine. He is celebrating spring and with the awful weather we have been having I am ready for Spring to arrive.

Animals

Happy Easter!

We celebrated Easter on Good Friday and had a great dinner(which I made). I wish everyone a Happy Easter and hope it is filled with chocolate. This week's corrosive challenge was Animals.

I am done with this month and the crazy weather, so my card is hoping that April will "roar" out of here. I also did an elephant card. It seems I have a lot of animal stamps.

I did this with some designer paper from my stash and tried to make a simple card. Sometimes I get carried away with the embellies so this week is just simple.

Home

This week's corrosive challenge is titled Home. I had issues coming up with a card. I do not have any stamps that saying "home", "we are moving", "we've moved". I tried to do a welcome home card and had enough lettering for welcome hom, so that went out the window. The more I thought of the word home, I thought of family, so that is how my card came to be.

Sketch Time for April

It is sketch time for the Corrosive Challenge. I used an image from this month's sponsor Bugaboo Stamps. Her name is Stella and she is a very sassy lady. She makes me smile every time I see her. This card is going to my boss, I know she won't take offense .

April-pastels

A big hello to this month's sponsor for the corrosive challenge. Welcome Bugaboo Stamps.




Easter is fast approaching and with a pastel challenge. I thought an Easter card would be appropriate. I coloured the bunny with Copics and layered the card with Certainely Celery,Very Vanilla , Old Olive and Barely Banana. I found this sketch from the Occasions mini from Stampin Up, page 18.
