OWH Midweek Throwdown Challenge



This week's challenge is Recipe Mix using an embossing folder, a die cut, two patterned papers, twine or ribbon.
Paper - Paper Loft, SU!
Embossing Folder - Cuttlebug Daisies (from a combo set)
Die - MFT Perfect Petal Trio
Twine - Queens

CASology Week 33: Circle


This is a good use of SU! scrap paper.  The Cuttlebug folders are Swiss Dots and Tiny Mosaics.  The die cuts are Nestabilities Ice Cream Cone and Circles.

Seize the Birthday STB #7


  • Stamp set is a very old SU! titled Provencal.  The die cut is Nestabilities Labels Nine.  The remaining materials are SU!  The verbiage I found on the internet and it does mean happy birthday.  I must say it took longer to find the spelling almost as long as it took to make the card.

Seize The Birthday Challenge: STB #5



This is probably an old stamp that I chose from a Lovingly Used drawer at Gee Gee's, the company is Rubber Stampede and the title Romantic Roses Large Bouquet.  The die cut is Nestabilities Labels Nine, and of course I used copics.  The verbiage is SU and it was heat embossed.

OWH Midweek Throwdown 4 Kids



My Favorite Things is one of my favortie stamp companies, not only do I like/use the stamps but I like their die cuts.  This cute stamp is Kung Fu Fred and Fred stamps have been retired and fortunately I have several.  I like using MFT stamps because they are whimsical, simple and great to use with copics.   
Note: the last time I submitted a card for an OWH Throwdown on 12/21/12 I think I forgot to submit it although it shows on my blog.  Oh well I am still learning.
MFT Kung Fu Fred and Die Cloud Trio, SU paper basic gray and soft sky, and Cuttlebug folder Stars

CASology Week 29: GAME


This technique is running the SU! stamp spots over glossy paper, and image stamped with black Stazon.  I like using this technique with fine masculine line art.  Finding a "game" stamp in my vast collection of stamps was very difficult, it was this golf stamp or a small baseball and glove.  The CAS style really challenges me.
