LNS Challenge 248/Sketch 313- Monday Lunchtime Sketch

Good Morning everyone and hope you had a wonderful weekend.  Mine was very productive, but very tiring.  Today we have an exciting challenge over at our Late Night Stampers Group and the Monday Lunchtime sketch is awesome as always.  Our Late Night Stamper's challenge is an inspirational photo.  You can use the photo anyway it inspires you.  Of course I combined the challenges again and first here is the inspiration photo.

 

 

And here is what it inspired me to do along with the Monday Lunchtime sketch.

 

 

The colors that really stood out to me in the photo was the Richrazzle Berry, yellow - Daffodil Delight, Whisper white and the gray.  So that is the colors I chose for the card.  I also made another card for this challenge which I will share later in the week.

 

Don't forget to stop by and check out our design team samples as on both challenges they are wonderful.

 

Thanks for stopping by today and hope you have a wonderful and blessed day.

 

My First Box Card

 

Well good Saturday Morning to you! Hope all is well with you and your day has started out just right!  I thought I would share my first box card with you today that I did on Thursday evening while my husband was at school doing an open house.  I am also linking this to our challenge this week at LNS as the challenge is Spring has Sprung and I thought this would be perfect.  I did use some retired Designer Paper, but it was my first and I did not want to mess up my not retired paper.  It actually turned out perfect I think.  I found the tutorial on Pinterest from Nancy Amato and followed it to a T!  Love tutorials that are so detailed.  Thanks Nancy and you can find the tutotial here!

 

Here is another view of the box card and yes it does fit in a medium size envelope.  Perfect for mailing to that special person.

 

 

And one more view just for kicks!

Playing with Circle Thinlits and Gold Velum

Hi everyone!  Here I am again with another post from a card I started last week and finished on Saturday.  I had the Circle Thinlits for a while and just got my gold velum, so I had to pull them out and play.  Here it is!  Did not like the light on it, but that is what you get when you have rain, rain, rain!

 

 

I added an extra layer to the side and also added some gold washi tape to the bottom!

 

 

This is a photo of it laid out more flat and the light shining on it better!

LNS Challenge 239/Sketch 295- Monday Lunchtime Sketch

Good Monday Morning!  Hope you all had a wonderful Christmas.  Our family was very blessed as my brother was able to come home and spend Christmas at home.  Such a blessing to all of us.

 

So today Mary Jo has another wonderful sketch for our Monday Lunchtime sketch and again I combined it with this weeks challenge for Late Night Stampers which was to do a Valentine, Wedding, or Anniversary Card or scrapbook page.  So I decided to do a wedding card.  I actually used two different stamp sets to make it and the Venetian Romance paper.  Love that Designer Paper.

 

 

And I also did the inside!

Project 2 for Bazaar Craft Show

Well here I am again with project # 2.  I have quite a few more started and in the works, but finished 3 of these last night and thought I would go ahead and share them with you.  I am only sharing 2 as that is what I grabbed this morning to take a picture of.  There are times we all need gift card holders and Christmas is definitely one of those times.  So I saw this cute little stocking on Crafty Stampin and just had to make it.  You can click on the name and it will take you to a tutorial on how she made it so there is no need for me to give you directions here.  It is made with the Stocking Die and so easy.  When you are working on projects for a craft show, that is what you need is easy, right?  Anyway here are two of the gift card holder stockings I have made. And, please let me know if $1.50 or $2.00 should be the price.  I am uncertain on this one.

 

 

Here is photos of each one individual.

 

  

And of course the inside, which I may do a Merry Christmas or something.  According if time permits.
