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!

Oh what a Swirlie! - TSTC#55

tags, punches, chipboard, stamps and BLING! Ok, when I started this card I had no idea where I was going with it. But I have to say, the finished product just blew me away! Hope you will try the sketch at Twisted Sketches this week, this is their Twisted Cards Sketch #55.

Tags, tags, everywhere tags... PCS21

Tags! - at Paper Craft Star this week we had a photo for inspiration in challenge #21. The photo has many shades of blue, lots of white, some tan and some green. I think the only color I used that was not in the palette was the reds. I guess I could have left them out but they were all created at the same time so I put them in too. I wish my house looked as beautiful as the sample photo but I live in north central Texas and this photo looks a little beachy to me. :O)

TEXAS! - C4C35

TEXAS! - Crazy4Challenges #35 - a sketch by Cindy Haffner. I sat out a couple of the C4C challenges because I just couldn't get 'into' the challenge. But I saw this sketch and I got this "NEW" rubbah today so I HAD to play along tonight. That's right, I started this card about 30 minutes ago. When I saw the stamps together with the cardstock it all just fell into place. GOTTA LOVE THAT! Anyhoo, the stamps are from Deadbeat Designs out of Salado, TX.

Deets:
I loaded my brayer with Mellow Moss & Creamy Caramel and ran it across my cardstock a few times. Then I loaded it with Ballet Blue and ran it across the top of my cardstock a few times. Then I stamp the tag in Basic Black. I heat set every color with my heat gun. Then I took a piece of round chipboard and stamped the postage cancellation image on it. The dps are RAKs. The felt flower has been lying around in my stash for ages (can't remember where it's from, but I have a few more). The metal corners are from We R Memory Keepers.
