KS Monday–Yee Haw!

 

 

Hello everyone~

It’s time for Kitchen Sink Monday!! First of all, my thoughts and prayers are people in TX, who has been fighting for the large wild fire since Sunday…mostly the fires are in the central TX but fires popped from here and there in northeast Texas where I live too. The winds from the hurricane are not helping at all :( God, please bring a lot of rain, not just winds!!

 

 

I made this cowboy boots card, using Friday Sketch Carte Challenge (FSCC35). I used the inspiration of the boots from My daughter’s new boots. The boots are from Multi Cowboy Boots and the words are from Multi Step Cowboy Hat.

The boots were stamped as following these steps: 3rd – SU pool party, 2nd – SU soft suede (1 x stamp off), 1st – SU crumb cake, 4th – SU turquoise blue, 5th – SU not quite navy.

The hemp twine was looped around the lacey circle mat and also used for the border accent. To finish off, the vintage rhinestone brads were attached on the card.

This card has been submitted to the CR84FN Color Challenge 37 (CR84FN37).

KS Monday–Sunflower & Hydrangea

 

 

Hello and happy Kitchen Sink Monday everyone~

I made two cards for today’s post and I used the sets that were neglected by me for a while although those were both too pretty to ignore! ;)

The sunflower was stamped with the following steps: 3rd – SU cajun craze, 2nd – SU more mustard, 1st – SU so saffron, 4th – SU so suede, 5th – SU early espresso.

Then I added the border and stamped the sentiment with Simple Sentiments. To finish off, I wrapped the twine and added the buttons with twine.

The card has submitted to Tuesday Kitchen Pantry Challenge 19 (KPC19) – Distressing and Crazy 4 Challenges 92 (C4C92) – add twine, floss, string, etc.

 

 

The next card is made for Monday 10 Minutes Card 24 (10MC24) - incorporate torn paper somewhere in your design. I used 3 Step Hydrangea for the image.

The hydrangea was stamped with the following steps: 3rd – SU elegant eggplant, 2nd – SU lavender lace, 1st – lavender lace (1 x stamp off), 4th – Memento paris dusk. The leaves were 3rd – Memento cottage ivy, 2nd – Memento bamboo leaves, 1st – Memento new sprout. The sentiment is from 3 Step Daisy.

KS Monday–Feeling Pink :)

 

 

Hello and happy Monday everyone~ Happy Memorial Day to my friends in the U.S.

I hope your weekend was wonderful. There have been a lot of events for the weekend and I have enjoyed staying outside more than usual :)

I made two cards for Kitchen Sink Monday and I used *pink* for both! Definitely they make my post sweet and lovely, lol.

 

The first card was used Multi Step Gift, Multi Step Bunch O’ Balloon and Simple Sentiments. I rotated the sketch from Friday Sketch Carte Challenge 21 (FSCC21). I’ve submitted this to KSOCBirthday also.

The balloon was stamped with the following steps: 1st – Memento angel pink, 2nd – Memento rose bud (1 x stamp off), 3rd – rose bud, 4th – SU rose red.  The gift box was stamped as 1st – angel pink, 2nd – rose bud (1 x stamp off), 3rd – rose bud, 4th – rose red. The bow was stamped as 1st – Memento desert sand, 2nd – Memento rich cocoa (1 x stamp off), 3rd – rich cocoa, 4th - SU early espresso.

 

 

 

 

 

 

The next card was CAS card as you see. I’ve submitted to Monday 10 Minutes Card 21 (10M21). I used Multi Step Sweet Heart Roses. Before I started to make this card, I had to try which image worked for the resisting technique. It was the Step 3 image in my opinion. After the image was heat embossed with clear embossing powder, I used Memento angel pink and rose bud to ink over the resisted image. Then I stamped the “XOXO” just below the image and dressed with the rhinestones.

KS Monday - Happy Father’s Day

 

Hello everyone~

This is my second post for today. To see Jessica’s Surprise Birthday Blog Hop post, just scroll down to the next post :)

 

I hope you had a wonderful weekend. I had a slow but not-so-boring one…Since I’m already aware that this week is going to be a busy one, I needed to some rest anyway ;)

The puppy is from Multi Step Kittens & Pup set and the baseball & sentiment are from 3 Step Baseball.  The challenge I host, Tuesday Kitchen Pantry Challenge 15 (KPC16) is to create a scene with stamps and I decided to combine with Friday Sketch Carte Challenge 20 (KSCC20) … I’m glad the result was better than I imagined :) – don’t you love when it happens?

KS Monday–Got a Time?

 

Hello and happy Kitchen Sink Monday everyone!

I had a quite creative weekend and decided to catch up some stamp challenges :)

 

If you have some KSS Stamps & love to play some challenges with us, you can visit HERE to check our daily challenges. We always welcome your ideas & suggestions as well ;)

 

The first card is definitely outside of my comfort zone…but I was in CAS mood for the last couple days (that means you are going to see some CAS style cards in my blog this week). I played with 10 Minutes Card challenge 19 (10MC19) using Multi Step A Cup of Warm Comfort set. To tell the truth, it tool more than 10 minutes to create this because I messed up while stamping the image and I had to recreate the main mat :P

The hot chocolate was stamped with the following steps: 4th – SU Early Espresso, 3rd – SU chocolate chip (1 x stamp off), 2nd – SU crumb cake (1 x stamp off), repeat 2nd step, 1st – crumb cake (1 x stamp off).  The chocolate chip cookies were stamped with 3rd – early espresso, 2nd – crumb cake, 1st – crumb cake (1 x stamp off).

I also have submitted this card to Crazy 4 Challenges 87 (C4C87) -Have some image related to ‘chocolate’ on your card/project.

 

 

 

The next card was used the sketch from Friday Sketch Carte Challenge 19 (FSCC19) . All images and sentiment are from 3 Step Hey Chick! set. The color combo was inspired by CR84FN Color Challenge 28 (CR84FN28) . Some of the DT’s cards totally inspired me to use these baby chicks :)

The chicks were stamped with the following steps: 4th – SU chocolate chip, 3rd – SU more mustard, 2nd – SU daffodil delight, 1st – daffodil delight (1 x stamp off).

KS Monday–Remember…

 

 

Hello everyone~

I hope all moms had a wonderful Mother’s Day yesterday. My kids gave me a sweet handmade and I had a little time to stamp :) Cannot argue with that!

 

Today’s card is not the colors I usually use for lilacs/flowers but I like how it was turned out! I used Multi Step Lilacs set for the image and Vintage Words for the word “REMEMBER”. I think this sepia monochromatic lilacs work for the vintage elements I used.

 

The lilacs were stamped with the following steps: 4th – SU Early Espresso, 3rd – SU chocolate chip (1 x stamp off), 2nd – SU crumb cake, 1st – crumb cake (1 x stamp off).  The stems were stamped with 2nd – early espresso, 1st – crumb cake. The leaf was stamped with 3rd – early espresso, 2nd – crumb cake, 1st – crumb cake (1 x stamp off).

 

I’ve submitted this card to Friday Sketch Carte Challenge 18 (FSCC18) , Tuesday Kitchen Pantry Challenge 15 (KPC15) – Monochromatic colors, Wednesday Stock Up on Occasion Challenge (KSOCFlowers) .

KS Monday–Time Heals All

 

Hello and happy Kitchen Sink Monday everyone~

I hope your weekend was great! I had a very easy weekend and stayed at home most of the time;) My husband, on the other hand, had a lot of traveling for his job…he went to from Shreveport, LA –Greensboro, NC – Baton Rouge LA for the last 5 day!! Between last week’s devastated tornadoes, I’m so glad he was OK.  Hopefully my kids and I can drive down to the place he’s working this weekend :)

 

For today’s my KS Monday card, I decided to use Multi Step Father’s Pocket Watch set.  The sketch was from Friday Sketch Carte Challenge 17 (FSCC17) and I used the color combo from CR84FN Color Challenge 26 (CR84FN26) . The embossed paper has pretty shimmer and I wish it showed it on the photo…

The watch was stamped with the following steps : 1st – SU so saffron, 2nd – SU more mustard (1 x stamp off), 3rd – more mustard

Well, the Easter weekend is over and hope you had a wonderful weekend as well.

I have one card to show you for Kitchen Sink Monday today. I decided to use Multi Step Berries for today’s card because we’ve been picking strawberries from our garden right now and I thought it was the perfect time to use those yummy looking stamps :)  Other than the strawberries, we definitely enjoy spending a time of early summer here… just one wish is that we have some rain now :(

The berries were stamped with the following steps :  1st – SU poppy parade (1 x stamp off), 2nd – poppy parade, 3rd – SU riding hood red, 4th – SU cherry cobbler.  The leaves were : 3rd – SU green garden, 2nd – SU wild wasabi, 1st – wild wasabi (1 x stamp off).

 

With this card, I’ve submitted to Stock Up on Occasions challenge (KSOCThinkingofYou) and CR84FN Color Challenge 25 (CR84FN25).
