Anything Goes Challenge ODBDSLC244

     So nice of you to stop in today. I always love your visits and comments. Hope your day is as sunny as mine.
     Today, I have a card for the Shining the Light Challenge at Our Daily Bread Designs.

     This week's challenge is anything goes. I used the  Pennant Swag die and the Pennant Swag Alphabet stamps from ODBD on my card. I love being able to tailor my own sentiments with these two items. The die has a beautiful bow tied at each end to hold the flag in place, but they did not really fit my card, so I cut them off the finished piece. I will definitely use this set a lot!

    Tracy, a very sweet friend of mine from Australia, sent me the We Are Family paper collection from Echo Park Paper Co which I used to create my card.

Magazine Monday Challenge - Week 100

     Thanks so much for stopping in. Hope you are enjoying your day.
     Today, I have a card for the << 100th >> challenge over at Papercrafters Corner.

     We got to pick from three different magazine covers this week. You can see them below along with the link to join in the fun. We also had to use or represent the numbers 100, 10 or 1 in some way. I have 10 arrows on my card.

     The colors from the first cover and the beautiful curves of the third cover inspired me. I used patterned papers from Colorbok (59587A). I stamped all the sentiments by curving different clear stamps from Hero Arts (CL342) and Paper Smooches (A1S208) to match the curve of my ten arrows. 

     Now, here are the magazine covers and a link to PaperCrafters Corner.

     Hope you have a great week!

Research Question

     I'm working on my next book, and I need some help. Thinking back to when you were 5-10 years old, what one wish did you have that you really hoped would come true? Did it come true? Do you still wish for it?

DCWV Stack-a-holic Card Sketch Challenge

      A post with a card two days in a row! Woohooo! I had  a free day and am spending the entire day in my studio. The day is almost over, but it's been a really fun day of creating.
     I do so enjoy when you stop by to see what I have made.

     Today's card is for the May Stack-a-holic Challenge at DCWV. I used the CHICK CHAT Stack for my card. Even the burlap was included in the stack! I must say I have never liked working with burlap. It unravels and frays terribly. But, just wait until you use this burlap!!! It has a paper backing so it does not fray and it's super easy to adhere to things. So, so happy about that. Thanks a million DCWV people!

     The roses and sentiment tag were also in the stack - well, everything was in the stack. I did a little fussy-cutting here and there and voila - a beautiful, easy card! Oh, I did add my own navy blue matting. I think matting panels really makes them pop.

     Here's the sketch DCWV gave us to work with along with the link to get all the rules. You still have oodles of time to join us. I'll be looking forward to seeing what you create!
