Anything Goes @ Stamp N Doodle

Anything Goes this week!!

This week at Stamp N Doodle we are using images by Lauren Curtis.  

I printed my image on SU Crumb Cake CS. 

I colored mine with SU watercolor crayons.  I embossed the image outside the frame with SU iridescent ice.  The key to coloring with pencils is to go back when your done with a black fine tip pen to highlight the outlines. 

 I used glossy accents to glue my vintage lace on the edges.  For the inside I die cut the white CS & layered it on a piece of coordinating designer paper & put a verse from Mark's Finest Paper & Stamps Poinsettia stamp set.

 I hope you'll jump over to our challenge site so you can win a prize: http://stamp-n-doodle.blogspot.com/

WAW50 Blessings from God

I love this name for God, "Father of lights"

To me, light represents everything pure, clean & perfect.  

Who wouldn't want to know him? Serve him? Trust him?

God has RICHLY blessed my family & I. He has ALWAYS provided our every need & most of our wants. I have ALWAYS known I could put my faith in him.  He has never let me down.

I've just gotten this stamp set from Mark's Finest Paper & Stamps. I thought this verse went so well with it.  I colored it with watercolor pencils. I punched the corners and embossed them in gold. I think they look awesome with the bow.

 This is the inside of my card.  I'm definitely using the scripture on more Christmas cards.
My paper is from DCWV Haberdash.

 If you haven't ever used scripture on your cards-I hope this inspires you!  You can get any of our featured scripture for FREE.  We have 2 awesome Word Artists that provide us weekly with a new one.
My design team always has something new & fresh to share.  Be sure & check them out as well.

Sketch with a twist @ MFP Speedy TV

It's Tuesday & time for Sketch with a twist @ MFP Speedy TV .

I made a fall card using Mark's Finest Papers, a Heinrich Co stamps: I created two scenes-one with leaves & one without.  The little horse on the tag is from another one of their stamp sets.
I used a couple of leaves cut with SU die.  I've had the leaf ribbon in my stash for a while and knew it would be perfect for this card.

This is the inside of my card.  The tag is from the DCWV paper line: Haberdash.  The sentiment stamps are from Inspired Stamps.

I hope you'll go join in the fun!  You can win a FREE stamp set!  You have a week-I hope to see your card!

Thanks for stopping by & I hope you have a blessed day!


 

Waterfall Card

Tutorial Time @ MFP Speedy TV challenge taught me how to make a waterfall card!

I love learning new things.  I have never done one of these-always admired them from afar.

It turned out beautiful!

 Asian Delights is one of my new favorite stamp sets from MARKS FINEST PAPERS A HEINRICH CO.

 Entering Challenge #19 @ Tutorial Time on Speedy TV Challenge.
You need to head on over & learn how to do this card yourself!

PSC53D Blog Hop with Birds & Blooms

Birds & Blooms

PSC53D: The Challenge/Twist: create a card with a sentiment for the occasion of your choice. Include the sentiment on the front. / Include a bird or a bloom on your card or a combination of both.

See our main blog @ http://perfectsentimentschallenge.blogspot.com for complete information about the blog hop.

 My background paper is Stampin Up & it started out craft color & it comes already embossed.  When I rubbed distress ink over it the embossed part pops out!  So cool.  So I have flowers in the background.  Then I simply printed my sentiment for Microsoft word, cut & matted it.  The dove and cream poinsettia is from K and Company.  My brad is from Lost and Found.  Ribbon: Stampin Up gross grain.

My Design Team has tons prepared for you as well.  Here's our line up:
