D2D's Scaredy Cat

Good Morning stampers!  It's a rainy day here in Washington state today, so a great time to be inside working on a card, unfortunately I have to work today.    Here is a card I made for the D2D progressive challenge.  Faith drew up this cutie for this weeks challenge and if you played last week, then you got this one free in your inbox last Friday.   For my card I used dp from the new DCWV 'Amber Autumn' stack. (love that one, it's got so many great fall papers)  I printed the sentiment on my computer and added 4 buttons to the corners.   The sketch I made up myself.  

Thank you for stopping by.  Remember to play along at Double Delight Challenges using any of D2D's images for the Operation Write Home Challenge.  Every one who enters will get a special "freebie".  Check out the blog for details.

LLWWC#49 Shake It!

Hello all!! Today I have a card that I made for the La La Land weekly challenge. Maureen has challenged us to make a shaker card. SCS has a good tutorial here if you're like me and never made one before. I must say it was fairly easy to make. I used the La La with a rose for my card and also used the blossom nesties for the shaker part. The flourish is a sizzix die that I had and the dp is DCWV. I struggled a bit as to what to put in my shaker, but finally decided to put micro beads in.

Thank you so much for stopping by. Remember this Sunday starts the big Birthday Bash for La La. That's right, she's turning 1. The games and fun begin Sunday August 1 - 9.

New Challenge Blog!!

Welcome Stampers!! I have an announcement for you. My sister, Kristine, and I have started a new challenge blog. The name of our new blog is Double Delight Challenges. It is in conjunction with Designed 2 Delight's progressive challenge. For awhile now, we have been challenging each other to 'Sister Challenges' using D2D freebie images. This is how it works, we each take turns picking a challenge in addition to the D2D image. You can read all about it on our new blog here. Feel free to pick up the blinky badge to display on your blog. I chose to do the first preview challenge. That was to make a Birthday card along with the D2D image called 'Beary Big Gift'. That bear is so cute behind that big present. I used dp from K&Co. along with DCWV 'Flower Shower' pack. I also used the sketch from Sketch Saturday for this card.

Don't forget to link your cards to Designed 2 Delight blog too. You'll want to get that next freebie.

A huge shout out to Kristine for setting up the blog! You're amazing sis, I'm always in awe of your creations. Please stop by Kris' blog and show her some love. Thank you!!

Designed 2 Delight Dragonfly Collage

Hello everyone!!  I have a card here that I made for the Designed 2 Delight progressive challenge.  Each week there is a new freebie for those who played in the previous week.   This week was this pretty dragonfly collage.  It's so cute!!  Thanks Faith.   I colored it in using my copics,  just got some and I love them.  I also used dp from the new DCWV stack called "Summer Dream"  and then used 2 of my nesties.  I added some pearls up in the corner.

  I used this weeks Mojo Monday sketch for my card.  Here is the sketch.

My sister, Kristine, and I often have our own 'sister' challenges.  So we both used the same image and different sketches.  Hop on over to her blog to see what a gorgeous card she has made.   Thank you for stopping by today.  Have a wonderful week:)

Rain Rain Go Away...

Good Afternoon!!  Here is a card I made for the Wee Memories Challenge.  It is to create a card/lo/project using the theme April Showers from the inspriation board she has on her blog here.  The prize is a $20 GC to Whimsy Haven and 30% off your next purchase.  We have until April 16 at 11:59 pst to get our entries in.  The winner will be announced on April 17th.

For my card, I used dp from the spring stack Flower Shower from DCWV.   I also used the boot from PTI's set called Green Thumb.  I didn't have a sentiment for rain or showers so I hand printed it on my card.  I used some Diamond Glaze on the rain drops for effect.  I followed the sketch from this weeks Mojo Monday challenge 134.   Thanks for stopping by!!
