CSS Alumni Blog Hop 2-26-2013

Here is my card using the You Say Goodbye and I Say Ello stamp set by Rebecca Oehlers,
for Gina K. All the images used here are from this set.  If you came to visit from Joy's blog, you are in the right place.
 Can you see this adorable Dachshund running across the card???  I used masculine colors and a button, so this would be perfect as a guy card! The card base is GKD and embossed with the Wood Grain folder and my Vagabond. The cute pup was colored with Copic markers and cut out by hand..


I sure am glad that you stopped my and now you need to go to Kay's blog to see what she made for you to see.

My challenge.....

Here is the card I made for STV13MON8 on the StampTV website. I used Rebecca Oehler's "You Say Goodbye, and I say Ello" stamp set, for the sentiment and phone booth.  I also used Gina's "Spoon Me" stamp set for the phone dial.  I added a touch of StampTV's cardstock and some red ribbon.  Thanks for stopping by to visit! Anxious too see you here tomorrow for the CSS hop!

Outlawz- Get Moving

Here is my card for the challenge this week.  I used a Gina K stamp set called Skater Diva. Lots of movement that you can see!!!  I colored her with Copics and added a Spellbinders Label, with the sentiment. I sponged the edges with Distress Ink, added a piece of pink ribbon and mounted it all on Navy card stock.  Thank you for stopping by today!

My Valentine 2-14-2013

I made this card today, which is Valentine's Day.  I won't be giving this to my hubby until he is home tomorrow.  I sure hope he likes it. He has been the best hubby making sure I was taken care of, this past year.
 I used a Silhouette cut file for the hearts, with the largest one glittered. I love this heart because it contain tulips.  Hubby is from Holland, so tulips are so very important.  The sentiment is from StampTV, Stately Flowers 4 stamp set by Melanie Muenchinger.  The white background was embossed using my CB folder and Vagabond machine, and popped onto StampTV CS, both red and black.The ribbons are from my stash.

I hope my hubby likes it, and hope you do too!

Watched the video and got moving

I was playing last night and created this one after watching Gina's video on StampTV.  I started with a card base, and then I embossed with the Victoria Cuttlebug folder,  I then inked the background, with Gina K's new Fresh Asparagus ink. The focal image is from the Petals and Wings stamp set.  I added the color with my Copics and the ribbon, and button too.  A little sponging with Distress Inks was added as well.   I am so glad you stopped by today.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

STV13MON6 Challenge

Here are the three cards I made for the StampTV, STV13MON6 Challenge. I used the lamp and sentiments from Tami Mayberry's set called Lighthearted Wishes.  These cards measure 3" sq., so they are perfect for gift giving. I made 3.5" envelopes to enclose these cards

I hope you enjoyed seeing these creations!

An Outlawz Challenge-PAM20212013

I hope you like this one.  It is the PAM challenge Paper ala Mode at the Outlawz website. Use the shape of a heart or the word "Love".  I used 2 different Embossing folders on the card! The Heart was cut out with my Spellbinders die, Scalloped Heart.
 I gave this card to my Hubby, for his birthday yesterday!!!

Thank you for stopping by!  ...Karen

CSS Color Challenge HOP 2-5-13

Hi Everyone- I am so glad you stopped by.  I have a card today for the StampTV  CSS blog hop to show you.  The Color Challenge is to use Pink or Red with a neutral of White, tan or black.

If you have arrived from  Linda Payne's blog, you are in the correct place.  

I used a Black background that I impressed with the CB Polka Dots folder.  The Heart was made with Spellbinder Scalloped Heart.  My stamped image is from StampTV Lovely Ladybug set by Gina, which I colored with Copic R46.  I popped up the circle and the sentiment and attached them to the heart, giving some added dimension, to make this Valentine.

 Make sure to leave a comment as you go along because we will choose a random comment and that stamper will win a grab bag of Gina K. Designs products! Look for the announcement on Tuesday, February 12.

I am so glad you stopped by on your way to  Joy's blog.  Thank you for visiting!
