One Sketch, Three Challenges

This week I decided to participate in a few card challenges.  The first being OWH Stars and Stamps Wednesday Challenge "Going Dotty", Alphabet Challenge "S is for Stripes" and Color Dare CD99 challenge.    I selected OWH Star and Stamps sketch #59 for the cards. 

The OWH Stars and Stamp challenge required dots on the card.  The dots could be embossed or dots on paper.  The Color Dare challenge required the colors basic grey, marina mist and cherry cobbler  be used.  I decided to combine the two challenges, of course I had to use my favorite stamp set Stampin Up "For All You Do" and my dots are embossed using Cricut Swiss Dots Embossing Folder.

The Alphabet Challenge required stripes.  Easy enough.  I used the same sketch, same image, marina mist and cherry cobbler card stock, and some coordinating striped paper from Paper Studio.   Voila!!

Nice way to spend a Saturday morning, being crafty and creative. 

Please say a prayer for all the wonderful people of Japan.  The damage and destruction just breaks my heart.  I lived in Japan for 8 years so it is a place very dear to me and my family.  My hubby and I got married in Tokyo 21 years ago.  



See ya!!

CPS Card Challenge - Sketch #48

I have been a CPS follower for about 2 years and today I finally participated in on of their challenges. The task was to pick a sketch from the last year and make a card with it. I chose sketch #48 and made a Black and White card. This card is also part of my Swap-Bot Black and White Card swap hosted by Joan of Sapphire Stitching.

For this CPS Card Sketch Challenge, sketch #48 I used Gina K Heavy Base Weight White Cardstock, Bazill Basic card stock in Blackbird, Stampin Up Whisper White card stock and ribbon, Stampin Up Artfully Asian stamp with Versafine Onyx Black Pigment Ink.

Here is another version with white image stamped on black paper. Used Stampin Up Whisper White Craft Ink.

The images were scanned into my PC vice taking a photo. I am not real please with the outcome so perhaps next time I will try a photo.

See ya!!
