C4C 536-White on White

Hello Friends!

I am playing with the ladies over on the Crazy4challenges Blog.

Today's challege in honor of national white day is to create a white on White card.

Here is what I came up with...

This is a 5X7 card that I made for work because we have about 30 people in our department so when we send a card we need a lot of room to sign it.

I kept this mostly white but added just a touch of color with copic marker.

This card uses stamps from Stampendous and The stamps of life.

I need to make a few more because you never know when you need a sympathy card.

I hope you enjoyed my challenge card.

Music

This weeks Crazy4challenges blog challenge is to incorporate music into your card.

Great excuse to pull out my Guitars2play set from The Stamps of Life.

Here is the card I came up with for today's challenge.

.

I used the Center Step Up card die

The music notes are die cut with a super old original small green Sizzix die.

I still have a few of them around that I use.

 Other than that, all the supplies can be found at The Stamps of Life.

Crazy4sentiments

I am so excited to have been asked back to guest on the Crazy4Challenges Blog for the month of October!

Challenges are a great way to spice up your crafting and get yourself out of your comfort zone a little bit!

Today's challenge is "Focus on the Sentiment" - which means...make the sentiment the star of your card!

Here is the card that I came up with:

I used the Drop out words Hello/Celebrate Dies and the Blockandscriptsentiments2stamp set

for the front..

For the inside I used a stamp from the Sassybirthday2stamp.

Here's another look at the card.

I am really happy with how it turned out.

C4C469: Ground Hog Day

I am so excited to be joining the ladies at on the Crazy4Challenges blog for the month of February.

I am so glad that they invited me back to play!

Today is Ground Hog Day so the challenge is to use a Ground Hog image for your card.

Or...if like me you don't have a Ground Hog stamp, you can use any other round critter on your card!

A mouse is a ground critter...right?

I hope so because that's what I used!

I used Teachermouse2stamp set from The Stamps of Life for today's card.

Here is the inside of the card.

I colored the mouse with prisma pencils and blended with gamsol and blending stumps.

I used the coordinating dies and the mini bow die too!

Make sure you check out what the rest of the team at the Crazy4Challenges blog team created for today's challenge!

Thanks for stopping by!
