Dare to Be SASSY Thursday!!!!

Good morning everyone!!!  Sorry I'm so late with this...the week just got away from me & I didn't realize it was Thursday already!! YIKES!!!!!! 

The challenge this week at DARE TO BE SASSY THURSDAYS is Kentucky Derby aka HATS!  I have used Copper Christie...sexy eh? My hubby quite liked this one!!!!  I was actually inspired to make this card because of the little set of keys charm that I found in my stash!!!  The embossed brick wall is Tim Holtz (sizzix) and the sentiment is computer generated!!!

I hope you will head over there & check out the rest of the DTs creations...as always, they are fabulous!!! AND join in if you're feeling SASSY!!!! ;)

Hugs,
Chris

PUNCHES & DIES

Here is my card I made for my student teacher on her last day!  She is officially a TEACHER now - so happy for her!!!  

One of our sponsors this week is Dr. Digi House of Stamps & I have used Brunnhilde.  

And the inside sentiment:

 AND this is the die cut of one of the shapes in the pattern.  The red swirly thing on the left side is also a die cut!  These both came with the paper...which is ..........either Kaiser or 7 Gypsies.....can't remember at the moment but will go find out after!  SORRY!!!  I coloured her with Copics then added crystal lacquer to her helmet, sword, shield and grey parts on her dress.  

Thanks for stopping by!!!

Sooooooooooooo, now on to my creation!!! I was given TIN SASSY to work with for this challenge & I used the top row of the board - Brick - Yellow - Ribbon! 

 

The Brick is a Tim Holtz embossing folder - done on Riding Hood Red.  The card base is Saffron (SU) and I used some silver glitter paper to mount the sentiment and the image.  Unfortunately, you can't see it well...but her entire suit and hat are covered in Crystal Lacquer to give it a shiny appearance like tin.....looks really cool IRL!  I found some silver ribbon and added some rhinestones.  Tin Sassy is coloured with copics.

I hope you will hop on to the next blog & join in our challenge!!!

Good luck!

Chris
