A Witchin Halloween

Hello to you! Today starts a new challenge at The Stamping Boutique Challenge Blog! Our theme this time is Halloween! We would love to see your spooky and funny projects!! For my card I have used a Princess Jennifer Latte Witch image from of course The Stamping Boutique! She is colored in with watercolor pencils and a blender pen this time around. I added some black glitter to the bats and her shoes to match the silver glimmer paper. The spiderweb background paper I have had for a few years now, it's from Creative Memories.
I hope to see your projects at our challenge this time! Just remember: You do not have to use a TSB image to win first prize! But, to be in the top 3 you do! Thank you for stopping by today!!

Thankful for Autumn

Today I have an Autumn card to share that I made for the JustRite Papercrafts Friday challenge, which is Autumn Splendor. I am just getting this entered just on time, as the challenge ends today! As you may know from my previous entries, this is the only JustRite stamp set I own called A Day in the Country. I have managed to enter other challenges using this set, but of course with the Autumn theme, it's just perfect. I wanted to keep the sentiment as the focal point, so I kept my other stamping(corn) and embellishments to a minimum. I will add another sentiment and more pattern papers(all from My Mind's Eye) on the inside. Thank you so much for having a look today!

The Stamping Boutique Challenge!

Hello, and welcome to the new start of challenges at The Stamping Boutique Challenge Blog! Our theme for the next two weeks is Christmas, celebrating 10 new digi images that Tracey has added to her store! For my project I have used her Christmas Reindeer digi stamp.(her entire store is on sale so go have a look!) I printed him onto watercolor paper and watercolored it with various Distress inks and markers. Once dry, I added some accents using a clear glaze pen, similar to a glossy accents look. I used a large ranger tag and covered it with some Kaisercraft papers adding a punched border and some trims. The sentiment comes from a Unity Stamp Itty Bitty called Gifts Galore, which are snowpeeps designed by Tracey! I hope you will join us at The Stamping Boutique Challenge, and Thank You for stopping by!

Join the Fun at Unity!

Hello and Happy Friday to you! Today I am sharing a card I made with a new Itty Bitty stamp called snowpeep Kurt, from Unity Stamp Company. Isn't he the cutest? Except my Kurt has changed into a girl! lol Anyway, the artist behind this image is Tracey Malnofski, which I have the pleasure of being on her Design Team for The Stamping Boutique!(we have a new challenge starting this Sunday!) I have been an admirer of her artwork for some time, and love that Unity turns them into rubber stamps! I colored this one in with my Pro Markers after heat embossing it in black. Also adding dimension with a Snow Marker and heat tool for some fluffy snow for my snowpeep to sit on! I am sending this one over to the Unity blog for their Friends With Flair Day! Patterned paper from My Mind's Eye, Cardstock from Stampin' Up!, and die cut from Spellbinders. Thank you so much for stopping by, and have a fun long weekend!

Punch Art Wheelbarrow

I have been wanting a wheelbarrow die from Sizzix, but I have put myself on restriction from shopping!! lol So I set out today to come up with my own version of this cute die cut, but using punches. I made the base with a simple box design, and the rest is punched pieces, except for the sides.
I think it came out really cute! I put some silk flowers in it, but would also be fun for candy, or even place markers for Thanksgiving!
Here you can see the box base. I used punches from Stampin' Up! which were: 1 inch circle, 1/2 inch circle, word window, 1 inch square, 3/4 inch square. The patterned paper for the sides is from My Mind's Eye. I may put a tutorial together showing how I assembled it later if anyone is interested! Thanks for having a look today!!
