Where's Sue?

Sorry for being MIA the last few days. I took vacation time from work and while I didn't go anywhere, my parents came by and helped me paint & repair my deck and wooden shed. After putting in a few hard days of labor, I couldn't lift my arms to even try and stamp. I promise to be back and in full swing starting tomorrow.

Happy Saturday!

Sketch Saturday Challenge

This week at Sketch Saturday was another great sketch challenge.

Earlier in the week I download this really adorable digi stamp that reminded me of my niece. As soon as I saw this challenge, I knew it would work perfectly to create a darling card. My niece's favorite color is purple, so I decided to color the digi stamp with shades of purple and lavendar. The Imaginisce paper coordinated perfectly.

I just love how this card turned out.

Tuesday Morning Sketches

This week at Tuesday Morning Sketches they posted a sketch that would work great for all those scraps of paper that you just can't throw away.

I knew I wanted to make a card using the left over scraps of purple and yellow papers I had, but not until this sketch came out did I know what I was going to do. I didn't have any coordinating pattern paper, so I took some purple ink and a QuicKutz stamp and stamped it all over a white piece of card stock.

I think this turned out really cute. What do you think?

By the Sea

Flourishes posted a fun challenge over the past weekend. The challenge is to incorporate the "feel" of the sea in a creation. It could be with a fun embellishment, a photo, or even a color theme.

When I thought of sea, the first thing that came to mind was water. Well what lives in or near the water besides fish, turtles, and frog... a mermaid of course.

I took out all of my Stickles and had fun adding sparkle to her fin, hair, and the flowers in the background pattern paper. Isn't she cute?

Oodabug Alley Challenge

This week's challenge at Oodabug Alley was to take the following fantastic sketch and create a card.

I just purchased a few new Color Box Chalk inks in Lime and Blue that I wanted to try out. After going through my paper stash I found some coordinating pattern paper and was able to create this card using Stampin' Up stamps & some gems.

I am going to give it to a co-worker that has been going through a rough time. I think she needs a pick me up to know that all the hard work and struggles she is experiencing will eventually help her achieve her career goals.
