All That Scraps - Another Anything Goes

Back after what seemed like the longest running cold in existence. And I am in time for the Anything Goes Challenge over at All That Scrap.
I love anything goes challenges, especially since I am, what I call, a budget card maker, I cant afford fancy dies and die cutter, so those more specialty challenges I can not partake in.

Here's my entry to the challenge:



 
Ingredients:
Stamps: Amy R - Merry & Bright, Sweet November - Tess, All Night Media - Splatter
Inks: Versa Magic - Sea Breeze, Momento - Tuxedo Black
Cardstock: CC Designs - Copic Quality 80lbs, Generic (staples) card base
DP: Echo Park - Winter Park
Medium: Prima Colour Marker, Copic Markers
Punches: EK Success - 1/4 Corner Punch, Marvy - Snowflake Punch
Other: Elmers Glitter Glual - Opal, TombowMono Glue Tape Runner

New Simon Says Challenge

This weeks wednesday challenge over at Simon Says Stamp is an anything goes challenge. I decided to use a stamp that required a small amount of editing.
Originally this was a christamas image, with the little girl holding an ornament... never tried such a thing before, but I deleted the ornament and ribbon that she was holding and added a gift bag complete with tissue paper along with a matching party hat. It was lots of fun.

Here is what I came up with:























Ingredients:
Digi Stamp: CC Designs/All That Scraps
DP: Echo Park & DCWV
Sentiment Stamp: Penny Black
CS: CC Designs & Bazzill
Medium: Copic & Prisma Colour Markers
Other: Elmers Glitter Glue & Dollarama Gemstone

Simon Says Stamp Challenge... Kristina's inspiration

This week over at Simon Says Stamp Challenge, Kristina Werner posted a challenge photo of her cat Manny. We had to use the colours in the pic as the inspiration for the card.... thought, I thought it would also be cute to use a kitty image, so I pulled out a penny black set for the central card image:

ATS Challenge - Paper Piecing

Im not a huge fan of paper piecing, mainly because Im not so great with cutting things out, though I do enjoy the look when I see other peoples creation who have done it.
So when I saw this challenge's theme over at ATS I didn't think I was going to play along, and then suddenly today I decided to got for it.
While it may be a bit early for me to start christmas cards, I wanted to use an actual stamp (not a digi) and I have a limited collection, but this little snowman seemed to jump out at me.
here is what I came up with.























Ingredients;
Stamps: CC Designs
DP: Echo Park (seasons greetings)
CS: CC Designs
Medium: Copic & Prisma Colour Markers
Other: Elmers Glitter Glue & Glossy Accents

So I grabbed those papers along with a super cute digi from the All That Scraps Store and this is qhat I came up with.

Returned from a long hiatus

Wow, talk about a hiatus. Over the last few months I have been run off my feet at work, had computer problems, took an extended vacation at a friends cottage, and then was run off my feet at work again when I returned.

It feels like its been forever since I have made a card, and even long since I have posted one.... but here is a quick birthday card I threw together from a Stamp Fairy World image.
