DCWV Stack-a-holic Challenge - January 2018

     Today, I have a card for the Stack-a-holic Challenge at DCWV.  I love the way this card turned out. I'm learning to use my Prismacolor pencils, and I must say that the higher price of these pencils are definitely worth it.
     I used the Beach House stack to create my card. I'm especially fond of the

More Kindness Cards - Stamp TV MMC12018

     I have more cards today for the Kindness Challenge over at Stamp TV. I love this theme for this challenge and decided to make several more cards for my stash. My friends and family love digging through my stash for their favorites to take home. Thinking-of-you type cards are the ones I send most.
     To create my patterned cardstock for this card, I stamped the flourish several times on white cardstock. Then, I trimmed it to fit as you see here. I added a strip of matching cardstock to set it off.
     Next, I stamped and die cut the sentiment and adhered the "you" with foam tape. I used Blue Raspberry cardstock and ink from Gina K Designs on this card.
     I used Grass Green cardstock and ink from Gina K Designs on this card. 
    Here are all the cards I made today. Once I had my design created, it was easy then to make more cards. Coming up with the design is the most time consuming part for me. If I really like a card I've made, then I usually make several.

     I'd love to see your "Kindness" cards too. Here's a link to the challenge rules at Stamp TV - http://stamptv.ning.com/
     Thanks so much for stopping in today, Pamela

Kindness Challenge - Stamp TV MMC12018

 
     Hello everyone! Today, I have a card for the Monthly Mix Challenge over at Stamp TV. The inspiration this month is "Kindness".
     I snuck a pin wheel that a dear friend gave me for my birthday a few months ago into my picture. She gave it to me so that I will always remember to have fun.
     
    There is still plenty of time to join in the fun. You can find the challenge rules here: http://stamptv.ning.com/

      I used the following Gina K Designs products for my card:

     cardstock- white and blue lagoon
     die-            Royal Frame
     stamp-      A Happy Hello
     dye-           blue lagoon

     Thanks so much for stopping in. I always appreciate your visits and comments, Pamela

Bazzill Sketch Challenge

     I was so honored to be asked to provide a sample card for December's sketch challenge on Bazzill's Facebook page.
     I guess it's the rebel in me that makes me pick colors other than red and green for Christmas. I'm seeing lots of blues like I used on this card though. One year I used orange and turquoise. Another year I used black and silver.
     I hope you'll enter your own card in the challenge. Here's a link to Bazzill's page where you can find the rules and a copy of the sketch.
