February stamp club sketch challenge 2016

Good Morning!

First I will start off with the link to the sketch challenge. It comes from Freshly Made Sketches # 221

Last month I finally ordered the woodgrain background stamp,  I have been wanting this stamp for awhile. Well I finally have it, and I really wanted to use it on this months sketch challenge. The ink I used was early espresso then stamped onto crumbcake cardstock. As you can see I cut the stamped image up to look like fence boards. I love how this card turned out.

I placed the fence boards a bit crooked just to help it give that "aged" look. It isn't showing up very good in the photo but I used the wink of stella on the word happy.



and here is the inside

Now I am ready for our stamp club  this thursday.

Have a great day!

January Stamp club 2016 what we made...

Hello my friends,

We made some wonderful cards at our stampclub in January that I would love to share with you.

Our first project was CASE'd from  Angela Lorenz Botanical sneak peek

I just LOVE this new stamp and die set, and of course the papers are gorgeous :)



Our second project was CASE'd from Flowerbug's Inkspot Party wishes fun fold card

Oh this was a fun one to make. I love gift card holder style cards and this is one I know that I will make again.

The idea for our third project came from Stamping to share Blomin' heart inlaid die cut

What a fancy heart die! very pretty. You can't see it very well but the white paper has some glimmer to it, very nice.



There you have it. All three projects from January. Thanks Charlene!!

Have a great long weekend everyone!
Donna
