Challenge your Stash

I joined into two stash challenges this week, one on Splitcoast and one on Instagram.


For the Challenge Your Stash challenge at SCS, Jeanette aka Forest Ranger is out Hostess. Her challenge:  ~~My husband Brent and I celebrated our 40th anniversary earlier this month. The color for 40th anniversaries is Ruby Red, so let's make monochromatic RED cards this month.
I used a digital image from Angie Blom.  Copic Markers were used for coloring the image. The cardstock is Ruby Red and is die cut using the Pinpoint Leaf Plate by Memory Box. 

I joined in a challenge on Instagram for using what we already have this weekend. 

I made 2 cards for the challenge




This first card is using a stamp set Multi Step Grand Peony by Kitchen Sink Stamps.  I love how realistic this set looks!


This card uses a Stencil by Pink Fresh Studio and a stamp set by Simon Says Stamps for the sentiment- the die comes with the set- love this!  I did add a touch of stickles to the center of the flowers. 

Challenges: TBD

Thanks for stopping by!

Alpha Challenge- K=Kite

 I had a bit of time to create- so nice- and Zoomed with crafty friends while creating : )  


 I created for the Alpha challenge at SCS, and this week is K=Kite.  This newly released image was sitting on my desk and ready for inking.  I love to color, although Jan has pre-colored images as well.  Copics were used for the grass, the boy and the kite.  The sun is a pre-colored image.  I used Distress inks and a diecut stencil I made for inking up the clouds. 

Challenges: TBA

l Stamps Feb release

Jan's Digital Stamps has some really beautiful releases this month.  I decided to work with the Pre-colored floral peony images : )



   I could color this image myself- but Jan has pre-colored images and they are always magnificent- so I love using them......  I used a background with some leftover watercolor paint. Scan and Cut helped me fussy cut the images out. 

 We have a monthly challenge and it is always Anything Goes- hope to see you enter your card in our challenge at Jan's Digital Stamps challenge!

Challenges TBA
