Intricate Leaves – Happy Anniversary
A few more challenges…Wedding White with gold and/or silver just won’t cut it with my husband…something a little more down to earth is more his style. The optional element for the current Try Stampin’ on Tuesday’s Sketch challenge (#522) was Anniversary. Down to earth is clean and simple so I selected one of the linesContinue reading “Intricate Leaves – Happy Anniversary”

Soft Spring – Thank You
Had a great group of Girls over for class today. We had a lot of fun! But it is time to get back to business…challenge deadlines are looming… A sweet little sketch over at Tuesday Morning Sketches (#619) led me to a favorite retired stamp set, Soft Spring. I picked the colors from the FacebookContinue reading “Soft Spring – Thank You”
Festive Foliage – Merry Christmas
It is a hot one today! Although, here in the South, the temperatures never seem to be “cold”, I am thinking about Christmas. Holiday card making classes start at the end of this month, so I am trying out a few options. I am a traditional Red and Green Girl but it is interesting sometimesContinue reading “Festive Foliage – Merry Christmas”
Free As A Bird
Keeping up with my “work”. “Work” is subjective and mine includes the pleasure of crafting, hanging out in the Studio and generally making a mess…that is until I put everything back in it’s place. So two more combined challenges: Try Stampin’ On Tuesday (#518) for the sketch and Colour INKspiration (#105) for the color scheme.Continue reading “Free As A Bird”
Beautifully Penned – Sending Caring Thoughts
Can you tell that I was away from the Studio for several weeks? Lots of challenges to catch up on before the month is through and deadlines are looming. Over at TGIF, the challenge is to decorate an envelope. I do not do this too often unless the card is for someone very special. I,Continue reading “Beautifully Penned – Sending Caring Thoughts”

Hand Penned Petals – Have a Beautiful Day
One of the first challenges I started doing were color challenges and specifically the ones over at Colour INKspiration. CI-101 is a set of truly gorgeous colors and yet had me stumped. In my mind’s eye I have played around with ideas, thought about particular layouts and possible themes. The deadline is looming and withContinue reading “Hand Penned Petals – Have a Beautiful Day”
