RAK from Debbie Angelle

My sweet stamping friend Debbie Angelle sent me the die cuts you  see on my card. I put them together to create this card. I am posting it as a Thank You to Debbie.
Thanks Debbie, it was so kind of you to think of me. I love these die cuts! Thanks for sharing with me. <3 p="">

Sunday Stamps Weekly Challenge

This card was made for the Sunday Challenges Weekly Challenge #110 -- It's all about the sketch. Bistre & Brusho.

Below is the sketch.

I love this sketch! It challenges me to work with angles and measurements. That's MATH! And if you know me, you know I suck at math!!! LOL

But I enjoyed making my card.

Stamps are from Stampin' Up! Come to Bethlehem set # 120591.

FM189

Today's card was created using the sketch at Freshly Made #189.

For my card I handcut a tag from SU! Whisper White cs. I started out by stamping SU! Beautifully Baroque in Versa Mark onto my tag and heat embossing with clear embossing powder. I used Tim Holtz Dusty Concord distress ink to smudge onto my tag. Lighter in around the embossed image and darker around the edges. I used a SU! doily for my round element. I handcut a piece of scrap cs for my rub on sentiment. Rhinestones are from SU! I just colored them with my Sharpie markers. Added a scrap of ribbon and called this one complete!

Below is the inspiration for the challenge. If you like to play along just click HERE.

This is Color Throw Down Challenge #226 entry.

I had a hard time trying to figure out how to photograph this card. I tried it in a plate stand but I didn't like it. So I laid it flat and I still don't like it but it was a better shot than the other so, what you see is what you get. The photo, however, doesn't do the card justice. I find I feel that way a lot about my shots. I NEED a better lens, better light, or maybe just a better eye behind the camera. This card was stamped using Stampin' Up! God's Beauty. It's a retired set but it still has relevance in my opinion. I didn't use a sentiment because I haven't decided yet, what occassion I will use this card for. I think it would work for Valentine's Day, Easter, Mother Day, Sympathy, Anniversary or even a birthday. I used Stampin' Up! Labels Collection Framelits to cut the card base and the image.
