Sketch Saturday Challenge #440

Greetings friends and fellow crafters. Today I am here with the Sketch Saturday team with this great sketch for our challenge. Please hop over to the main sketch blog and check out all the designers, and link up your entry. Please stop by the Paper Shelter for some great Digital Stamps, background papers and other fun things to play with. Saturday Sketch Main Blog HERE

The Paper Shelter has the most amazing digital images and also digital papers. And they are offering the winner a $10 gift certificate!!

Unfortunately I was unable to use the Paper Shelter items for this post as my printer was giving issues, so what I have made consists of a background stamp from Joy Clair heat embossed and then a distress ink blend. I then used a Hero Arts stamp from the Art of the Card set dated 2012 in the center. 

I hope you have enjoyed this project as well as the rest of the teams. 

Thank you so much, and Happy Holidays.

Watching some video's on you-tube I came across a video from the scrappin rabbit and CDD and knew I had to put it to use.

The sets I used for this project were Oh Baby! and Wonderland Letters.

RETARTE 90 - November 15, 2016 - KennyK Stamps

Greetings Crafty Friends, today I am sharing a project I did using a digital image from Kenny K Stamps ... This is for the great challenge going on over at Retarte.

The image I chose is "Christmas Tree".

I can only imagine in a couple years when my grandchildren are a little older that this will be them getting the tree ready with their parents. Right now they are 27 months and 2 weeks... so 2 more years I will update. In the mean time... here is my project. 

I used Recollections pattern paper as the background, I colored my image with Spectrum Noir Markers. After cutting the image to fit the card base, and adhering it, my card was complete. 

I hope you enjoyed my project, and am looking forward to seeing what you have made for the challenge.

Sketch Saturday Week 438 with Simon Says Stamp

Greetings crafty friends, today is my first post with Sketch Saturday Challenge Team. I am so excited about this, and hope to see you get involved with these fun challenges.

Today is the beginning of challenge #438, Our wonderful sponsor is Simon Says Stamp, and the prize will be a $25 gift Certificate.

So without further delay, this is the challenge sketch that we are working with this week.

And this is my project. 

Using Recollections pattern paper for the background, and Rope Stitched Rectangle and Square Dies form my friend Kat's store, I was able to put this card together. The cute little Raccoon is from Lawn Fawn which I stamped and used my Scan N Cut to cut him out. Using Spectrum Noir Markers I was able to color him the way I liked, and added the wishbone to finish him off. 

I hope you have enjoyed my card, and look forward to seeing your entries.
