MFTWSC75 You Spin Me

Hey everyone, and happy Wednesday!! Since it is Wednesday, it is time for another Wednesday Stamp Club challenge from My Favorite Things! 

For my card today, I used the new Fred Bear and His Pinwheel set. I stamped him on X-Press It Blending card, and then colored him with my Copics. I cut out an extra pinwheel, and popped it up for some more dimension. My image was cut out with the Circle Stax Die-namics, along with it's layer. My cardstock is Night of Navy, Wild Wasabi, and Wild Cherry. For my embellishments, I used the Sweet Tooth Grosgrain, Red Jute Twine, the Upsy Daisy Die-namics, and some brads from Michael's.

My paper is from the Simple Stories Summer Fresh paper pad.

Here are the Die-namics I used:

Well, that is it for me for now!! Be sure to check out MFT Blog for a full list of designers participating in today's sketch!!

Inspirational Birthday Bash

Hey everyone!! It is time for this week's Ribbon Carousel Challenge, and this week, I am the hostess!!

My challenge to you all this week is to make a birthday card, easy peasy!! I combined this week's Ribbon Carousel challenge with this week's There She Goes challenge. I LOVE the inspiration photo this week, so I was excited to get to play along!

I used the new Oh Crop set for my card today, along with this week's Mojo Monday sketch....which I modified just a tiny bit. I moved the sentiment, which was place on a flag from the MFT First Place Award Die-namics. I used the MFT Circle Stax Die-namics and the Open Scalloped Doily Duo Die-namics. My card stock is the new Bazzill Gold Coin and PTI's Aqua Mist. For my card base, I used Sweet Tooth from MFT, and my paper is the Baby Jane Deck from Cosmo Cricket. To embellish it, I used Champagne Vintage Seam Binding, and some Michael's brads.

Well, that is all for me! Thanks for stopping by, and be sure to check out all three challenges that I have entered!

For my card tonight, I used the ADORABLE Pure Innocence Lady Liberty stamp set. I didn't go with the traditional colors for her, but something a little different. My colors were inspired by the paper I used, Lilybee Designs Memorandum. It was paired with Fossil(MFT), Going Gray, and Banana Split(Bazzill) card stock. My paper panel was cut out using the Designer Label 2 Stax Die-namics. I used the Traditional Tag Stax Die-namics for my sentiment, which I added the smallest star from the Star Stax Die-namics to. I covered it up on the front, but on the inside, I used the Notched Border Die-namics. Kraft Grosgrain by MFT is the ribbon I used, and my tag was attached with Jute Twine from the Ribbon Carousel. To finish, I did my normal paper piercing, and added some Michael's brads. It's an obsession, lol.

It's A Kraftin' Kimmie Kinda Day...

It's challenge time again with Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps, and guess what....I'm this month's Guest Designer!!! I was SO THRILLED when I got an email from Kim and Michele Boyer asking me if I would be interested, and I could NOT say no!! I LOVE Kimmie's stamps, and own several, I just never get a chance to play with them....here's my chance!!! Thank you SO MUCH Kimmie for this FABULOUS honor!!

This week's challenge is being hosted by Angie Baker, and her challenge was to do anything but a card...I picked the perfect time to be a guest, huh, LOL!!! I don't normally do ABC, so I was so nervous about my project for today, I can't even tell you! The prize this week is the super cute new Miss Information set that was just released!!

My boyfriend and I just moved into a new house, and his kids FINALLY have rooms of their own with us, so I wanted to make something special for his daughter Jenna's room. She and I spent over an hour in Target picking out a bed set, and this will match it pretty darn closely! So, I decided to do a altered clipboard to hang on her wall...it's not really functional as a clipboard now, but I love the way it turned out! I used one of the ADORABLE images from the Springtime Lulu set, which was stamped on X-Press It Blending Card. I colored her with my Copics, then layered her with Black Licorice card stock. I used all three MFT Royal Rose Die-namics(Large, Royal, and Mini) to create my flowers from some MME So Sophie and Black Licorice card stock. I used the MFT Fancy Flourish Die-namics for my flourishes, and some American Crafts Thickers for Jenna's name. My ribbon is Black Vintage Seam Binding from the Ribbon Carousel, and I used a Creative Express Spiral Clip. To cover the clipboard, I used both the MME So Sophie and Meadowlark paper pads, along with some scallops made with the MFT Simply Scalloped Medium Die-namics.

Here is a close up of my super cute Lulu image!

Well, that is it for me for now! Be sure to head on over to the Kraftin' Kimmie Blog to see what the other girls have created for this challenge!!! I am SO honored to be working with them!! Have a great day!!
