Ski Bunny Trevor

Hello! Happy Thursday! This week's ATS Wednesday Challenge is to use snowflakes. That's always fun for me! I used this adorable Ski Bunny Trevor image. The sentiment is from Winter Sentiments by AmyR Stamps. The paper is from the Polar Expressions collection by Imaginisce. I pierced around the sentiment and used Dazzling Diamonds glitter on the ground line.

You can stop by the ATS Wednesday Challenge Blog to see more samples. Link your own project there for a chance to win a $10 gift certificate to All That Scraps!

It's coooooold here today, and we had some snow showers this morning. Winter has definitely arrived! I hope you are warm wherever you are -- thanks so much for stopping by! :)

Have a great day!

ATS Challenge: Tall Card

Hi there! Happy Wednesday to you! I'm STILL subbing, and I'm still trying to get a grip on my schedule! LOL! I did sneak in some stamping time last night, because I wanted to make a card for this week's ATS Challenge. The challenge is to make a tall card. This one is 6.5" tall and 3.5" wide.

I used this adorable Witch Emma, and the paper is BasicGrey Eerie. I colored the image with Copics, then I cut it out and popped it up on dimensionals. I embellished with ribbon, button, twine, brads, and Drippy Goo punch.

Guess what? The ATS challenges have a new home! You can find them on the new ATS Challenge Blog. Each Wednesday a new challenge will be posted, and you can link your own cards to the challenge posts! I hope you all will check out the samples and play along with us!

That's all for today! I'm off to begin another day with second graders -- I'm really going to miss them when their teacher returns! She's been really ill, so say a little prayer for her!

Thank you so much for visiting today! I'm always glad when you stop by!

Have a wonderful Wednesday! :)

We're experiencing some technical difficulties...

Happy Wednesday! I had planned to share my ATS Challenge card and some photos of the new MFT Kit today, but Blogger won't let me upload any photos. UGH!!! I've tried from my laptop and my home computer, and no luck!! I'll try to edit them in later, but here are the deets for both...

ATS Challenge #62
This week's ATS Challenge is watercoloring. It was a good one for me, because I tend to rely too much on my Copics lately! ;) All of the ATS Wednesday Challenges can be found HERE on the ATS Forum. Lesa should have the new challenge posted soon, and you'll be able to see the DT projects later today on the ATS Blog.

ETA: I finally got it to upload! Here is my card for today's Watercolor Challenge. The paper is from Provo Craft, and the Moon and Stars punch is from EK Success. I watercolored with an Aquapainter and SU! inks. I colored the adhesive star rhinestones with a Copic marker.




MFT September Kit
It's available TODAY! Oh my goodness -- this one is SO cute! Meet Mr. Roboto! The image and the digi papers are just adorable -- I can't wait to play with them! I'll have this month's MFT Kit Challenge for you next Wednesday, so order your kit and play along! :)

Okay, that's all for now! Tomorrow I'll have this week's My Favorite Challenge for you! Thanks so much for stopping by today!

Have a great day!

ATS Color Challenge

Happy Wednesday, everyone! Today's ATS Wednesday Challenge is a color challenge: Always Artichoke, Rose Red, and Basic Black. I cheated a little with the BasicGrey Urban Prairie paper, but I just *love* it! ;)

The stamp is one of the new Kiki La Rue images -- SO cute! This is Coffee Kiki, and she's just so ME in the morning (minus the curlers). I can't start my day without a big ol' mug of coffee! The sentiment is from Wardrobe Sentiments by AmyR Stamps. I colored with Copics.

Stop by the ATS Blog to see what the girls have done! I'm sure it's fabulous!

Thanks so much for stopping by today!

Have a wonderful Wednesday!

ATS Wednesday Challenge -- a Sketch

Happy Wednesday, everyone! Today's ATS Challenge is this sketch from Diane Zechman (cookiestamper):

I used the set Amy's Fresh Flowers by AmyR Stamps. I inked the image with SU! ink and markers, then I spritzed it with water before stamping on the watercolor paper. I sponged the flowers (from the SU! Pretties Kit) with Baja Breeze and Old Olive inks, and I also sponged around the image and sentiment.

If you'd like to play along with us, use keyword ATSDTC60 when uploading to the SCS and ATS galleries. You can stop by the ATS Blog to see what the other girls have done with this fun sketch!

Well, today was Back-to-School, Day Two. Kyle started yesterday, and Megan started today. Anna and Caroline start tomorrow! It's been a little crazy around here, to say the least! Soon we'll be into our routine (and I'll have my afternoons free!). Until then, I'm sneaking in my stamping when I can! :)

Thank you so much for visiting today!

Have a wonderful Wednesday!

ATS Challenge: No Patterned Paper!

Happy Wednesday, everyone! Another late post from me -- it's been another weird day! Our phone line and Internet went down last night, just before I was going to post this. The phone repairmen didn't get here until 2:30 this afternoon, and it was fixed in 5 minutes!!! Geez!!

Anyway, I'm here with this week's All That Scraps Wednesday Challenge. This one was a tough one for me -- no patterned paper!! Yikes! I made my own patterned background with the martini glass image from Gingersnaps Celebrate!. I turned the martini into a Cosmopolitan, and I used my yummy new SU! Melon Mambo cardstock and ribbon.

Play along with us! Use keyword ATSDTC57 when uploading. You can see some DT challenge samples on the ATS Blog.

ATS Challenge and a Preview!

*If you are looking for the MFT Blog Hop, scroll down one post!*

Happy Wednesday, everyone! And Happy July! I can't believe how fast June flew by! Today's ATS Challenge (ATSDTC54) is to use patriotic colors on your project. Since today is Canada Day, and Saturday is Independence Day, it's a perfect challenge! I used the new C.C. Designs July Kiki digital image. There are two images -- one with long hair and one with short hair. Of course I chose the short-haired image! :) The sentiment is from Beach Sentiments by AmyR Stamps. I colored with Copics and added some fun stars all around. I picked up both the rhinestone and foam stars at Michaels. The paper is from Creative Imaginations. You can see all the ATS Weekly Challenges HERE -- play along with us! :)

This next card is a preview of the soon-to-be-released set called Chasing Butterflies. It is by a new stamp designer, Diem Pascarella. If the name sounds familiar it is because she designs the Beautiful Day Fairies for Paper Makeup Stamps. She will be illustrating animals for C.C. Designs. Welcome, Diem! Isn't this image so sweet?

I used one of the Blossom Nestabilities for my image panel. I sponged Pretty in Pink ink on the panel while the die was still in place, and that left the white frame around the edge. I colored with Copics, then I used Spica pens on the butterfly and cat's collar. The paper is Urban Prairie by BasicGrey. I just can't seem to stop using Caboodles on my cards -- I just love 'em! :)

Stop by the ATS Blog to see samples of Chasing Butterflies, and find out how you can win a set of your own! All the new ATS stamps will be released Monday, July 6! Wait 'til you see the rest of the sets -- lots of summery fun! :)

That's all for today! It's cool and rainy here today -- looks like a good day for stamping! Thanks so much for stopping by!

Have a wonderful day!

ATS Challenge: Grid Technique

Happy Wednesday, everyone! Today I have the All That Scraps Wednesday Challenge for you! This week's challenge is to use the Grid Technique.

This adorable image is Heidi, one of the Swiss Pixies by C.C. Designs. I colored her with Copics and cut her out. I applied Icicle Stickles to her wings, and I popped her up on dimensionals over the embossed oval.

The grid panel reminded me of lattice, so I used a leaf from Sugarplums Scenery to create a leafy vine. I drew in the vine, then I cut out the leaves and mounted them on rolled up Glue Dots.

Play along with us! Use keyword ATSDTC51 when uploadingto SCS or the ATS Wednesday Challenge Gallery. You can go HERE to find all the ATS challenges -- do any of them at any time! Remember, Christine and Amy are always looking for the next ATS Guest Designer -- it could be YOU! :)

Happy Wednesday! Today's ATS Challenge is to use Stickles. I pulled out one of my favorite C.C. Designs images (from the set Summertime Fun) and some bright papers to make this summery card!

Thinking outside the Box!

Happy Wednesday! Today's ATS Wednesday Challenge is to think outside the box! Use those stamps in a way they weren't intended to be used! I have to say that this challenge stumped me for a while, but then this idea just popped in my head... and I went with it!

It's a pretty simple design -- I just took this butterfly from Spring Things! and made a spring wreath. I even scored some panels on the white cardstock so it looks like a door!

We'd love to see what you can do! Use keyword ATSDTC46 when uploading to All That Scraps or SCS. All of the challenges can be found HERE -- do any one at any time! Lesa will have the Design Team projects for this challenge on the ATS Blog, so be sure to check them out!

ATS Challenge: White on White

Happy Wednesday, everyone! For today's ATS DT Challenge, Lesa challenged us to use white on everything but the focal image. I honestly thought I was going to have a difficult time with this one, but I actually came up with a card that I *love*!! I used an image and sentiment from AmyR Stamps, and the rest just fell together!

Quick Tip: When making white cards, you can't rely on color to make your design interesting, so give your card interest in other ways -- using texture, dimension, layers and punches.

If you'd like to play along with the challenge, use keyword ATSDTC42 when uploading. Upload your design to the ATS Challenge Gallery so all of us can see it! :) Also, be sure to stop by the ATS Blog today to see more Design Team projects. I can't wait to see what they came up with!

One more thing -- don't forget to vote for your favorite project(s) in the MFT Idol Contest! The top nine are trying to make it to the next round! Voting can be done HERE -- you have until 1o pm tonight (Wednesday) to choose! :)

Thanks for visiting today! I'm so glad you stopped by!

A Ribbon Challenge

Happy Thursday, everyone! :)

This week's ATS DT Challenge is to use lots of ribbon on your project. I used several colors of dotted organdy ribbon, even putting a bow in Gingersnap's hair! I machine stitched around the yellow dp and I added some Stickles to the butterfly. Gingersnap and the butterfly are cut out and popped up on dimensionals.

ATS Wednesday Challenge: Go Green!

Happy Wednesday! In honor of St. Patrick's Day, today's ATS Challenge is to use Green on your project. Honestly, I thought this would be an easy one for me, but the more I tried to get started, the more stumped I became. I think it's because I wanted to use a St. Patrick's kind of green, and that left me with Glorious Green, one of my most unfavorite colors. But, I was determined to press on. Then I spied this Scenic Route Surprise dp in my stash, and it saved me! :)

For this first project, I used the Cookie Crumbs set Cupcake Occasions. I stamped the cupcake once on white cardstock, once on the dp, and one more time on scrap white cardstock. I paper pieced the cupcake bottom. I colored the cupcake top with Prismacolor pencils, cut it out, and mounted it on dimensionals. I added some Green Stickles to the shamrock. I created the sentiment on my computer and cut it out with a Spellbinders Tag Trio die. The ribbon is from Michaels.

Okay, it was getting late when I finished the card, but I still had the supplies out, so I decided to make another project. I was apparently a little slap-happy at this point, because I totally cracked myself up with this one! :)

The image is from Amy's Boutique by AmyR Stamps, and the sentiment was again printed from the computer. It's a good thing Chris likes Guinness, because this project wouldn't pack the same punch on a non-Irish beer! ;)

ATS Challenge: Dry Embossing

Happy Thursday, everyone! Wow, it has certainly been a busy stamping week so far! The fun continues today with this week's ATS DT Challenge. Lesa challenged us to use dry embossing on our projects. My Cuttlebug is my best friend, so this challenge was right up my alley! :)

The image and sentiment on this card are from the just-released set Hunny Bunny by C.C. Designs. I swear, Christine's characters get cuter every month! I colored the bunny with Copics and added highlights with an Inkssentials white gel pen. Then I cut him out and mounted him on the embossed oval with dimensionals.

There is a lot of dry embossing here: the pink background, the white oval, and the scalloped oval. Even the Prima flower is embossed (it comes that way -- *love* those Obsession flowers)!

Wanna play along with the challenge? Use keyword ATSDTC39 when uploading. Be sure to upload to the ATS Challenge Gallery so we can see it! Remember, Christine and Amy are always looking for the next ATS Guest Designer -- it could be YOU! :)

That's all for today -- thanks so much for stopping by!

Lots of Challenges!

Happy Friday! You know, sometimes there just aren't enough hours in the week to do all the challenges I want to do! I played catch-up and combined a few challenges on these cards!

The first card is a "Review Preview" of the recently released C.C. Designs set Rockin' Out. I did this week's ATS Challenge, which is a sketch challenge:

I am loving this new Bella Blvd paper -- it is just so much fun! I colored the image with Copics and added Icicle Stickles to the star. I used my Cuttlebug on the cardstock, and I used SU! star punches for the star embellishments.

My next card combines two more challenges, Cindy's MFT Sketch Challenge and yesterday's SCS Ways to Use It Challenge (stripes). The stripes come from the SU! Sweet Always paper.

Since today is the 20th, it's also Celebrate MFT Day, so I had some fun with this card! I used the cow from Punny Farm and the sentiment from Twisted Too. I colored the cow with Copics, sponged around the edge of the image oval, and added a halo with Stickles.

I hope you can play along with the challenges, too! The ATS challenge is keyword ATSDTC37, and the MFT challenge is keyword MFTSC69. Upload to the ATS Wednesday Challege gallery or to the Splitcoaststampers gallery.

Whew! That's it for now! Thanks so much for stopping by today!

Have a fantastic Friday! :)

A Challenge and a Tag!

Happy Wednesday, everyone! Today's ATS Challenge is Paper Piecing. I use paper piecing often in my projects, so this was fun for me! I used the Cookie Crumbs set Cupcake Occasions to create this little trio of treats!


To play along with the challenge, use keyword ATSDTC36 when uploading. Upload to the Wednesday Challenge Gallery so we can see your creations! Go HERE to see all the ATS Challenges -- you can play along with any challenge at any time! :)


A couple weeks ago Bonnie Sharp gave me a tag. I'm soooo bad about doing these things in a timely manner -- so here it is, better late than never! These are the rules of the "Sixth Photo" tag:
1. navigate to where you keep your pictures, select the 6th folder, and the 6th picture in that folder.
2. Then post it on your blog with an explanation of the story behind the picture
3. tag 6 other people to do the same, and make sure you let them know about it.

I'm so glad this is the photo I get to share! It's one of my favorites! It's a photo of Caroline and Anna, taken two summers ago under the tree in our front yard. They were having a little picnic together! Are those smiles priceless, or what?!? :)

I can never choose just a few people to tag, so all of you consider yourselves tagged! :)

That's it for today! Thank you so much for visiting!

Have a wonderful day!

When Life Hands You Snow...

You make snowman cards! We're in the middle of a big snow storm -- several inches of snow, followed by ice, followed by several more inches of snow! Here are some photos of what I woke up to this morning...

This first photo was taken from my front porch. Look at all the ice on the tree!

Here's a view from my back door, looking across the deck.

This is the second day my kids have been off school, so it's a little crazy around here! I finally managed to sneak downstairs and stamp last night. Here's the card I made for yesterday's SCS Color Challenge -- Garden Green, Pacific Point and Baja Breeze. I wasn't loving this combo when I first saw it, but it really has grown on me! I used the set A Scarf for Three by MFT Presents, illustrated by Stephanie Fizer. The DP is Ski Slope by SU!. I colored with a combination of Copics and a blender pen & SU! inks. The hats are paper pieced with the DP.

My next card is for today's ATS Wednesday Challenge, Brads Galore. I used 14 brads along the scallops -- I don't think I have ever had that many brads on a card before! The images are from Winter Bear by C.C. Designs, and the paper is from the Be Merry collection by My Minds Eye. I colored with Copics, and I used some Icicle Stickles for the snow. The center snowman is popped up on dimensionals.

If you want to play along with the brads challenge, use keyword ATSDTC34. Then upload it to the Challenge Gallery so we can see it! Go HERE to see a list of all the challenges -- play along at any time!

Well, that's it for today! I'm going to drink my coffee and watch the snow fall! Hopefully I'll get some stamping done, too! Thanks for visiting today -- I'm so glad you stopped by!

Have a great day!

Your Cave or Mine?

Hi there! Happy Wednesday! Today's ATS Wednesday Challenge is to do Faux Stitching. I often use faux stitching on my projects, so this was fun for me!

I made a Valentine card with these images from Eric and Chrissy Go Prehistoric. This was the sentiment I suggested when Christine was designing the set, so of course I had to use it! :) I faux stitched a border around the heart paper. The card measures 4.25" square.

Play along with us, and use keyword ATSDTC33 when uploading. We'd love to see your project in the Wednesday Challenge Gallery! You can play along with any challenge at any time -- go HERE to see all of them! The Design Team projects will be posted on the ATS Blog today -- I can't wait to see what everyone has done!

That's it for me today! Tomorrow I'll have this week's MFT sketch challenge to show you -- it's a good one! Thanks so much for visiting today -- I always appreciate it! :)

Have a fantastic day!

It's Finished! I'm Stamping Again!

Hello! Happy Wednesday! It's a VERY happy day for me, because my craft space is finished!! *big grin* I am SO happy -- I have so much room to create and to store all my stuff! I have the best husband -- THANK YOU, Chris!! :) I spent most of last night trying to put all my things where I want them, but I have a few things left to do. I'll share pics as soon as I can!

This morning, as soon as the kids were off to school, I stamped again! I made a Double Pocket bag for today's ATS Wednesday Challenge. The tutorial can be found HERE.

It was a quick and easy project. I tucked some cocoa packets into my pockets -- it's cooooold here today, and some cocoa just sounded good! The paper is from the Quite Smitten collection by My Minds Eye. I colored with Copics and added highlights with an Inkssentials white gel pen. I sponged around the image, sentiment, and white snowflake with SU! Close to Cocoa ink. I used a Marvy Super Jumbo snowflake punch and Martha Stewart snowflake punches, and I added a gemstone to the center.

Play along with us! Upload your project to the ATS Wednesday Challenge Gallery, and use keyword ATSDTC32. We'd love to see what you create! Stop by the ATS Blog later on to see what the DT came up with!

Well, I'm off to do some more organizing and stamping! Thanks so much for stopping by today!
