SIP Challenge #61 Tic-Tac-Toe from Lisa!


Hello and Happy Tuesday!  Are you ready for another SIP Challenge?  This week we have another fun Tic-Tac-Toe from Lisa!  
http://stampinkpaper.com/2016/08/sip-challenge-61-tic-tac-toe-from-lisa/

I went straight across the middle with Bird, Tree, and Blue.  Here's my card..


I have to tell you that I absolutely Love this sentiment from Unity Stamp Company but it is so large, it can be a bit tricky to use.  I had to get the elements in so for my tree with this sentiment I decided to use this awesome Stampin' Up! Woodland Embossing Folder.  I brayered soft suede ink over the embossed 3 3/4" x 5" Soft Sky Layer.  Now I have another confession.. and I'm pretty sure if you take a good look at this card, it is no secret... I am not good at brayering on embossed images.  There.. I've said it!  I have one of the old type brayer and I really believe that the new Stampin' Up! Sponge Brayers would probably be much easier to do this technique.  I'm going to order some on my next order so stay tuned.. I'll let you know!   I heat embossed my sentiment in the new Copper Embossing Powder onto Whisper White and then used Banner Framelit Dies to cut it out.  The birds are Little Bird Dies from Gina Marie and were adhered with glue dots.  I layered my card front on a 4" x 5 1/4" piece of Early Espresso Cardstock and then layered that on an 11" x 4 1/4" cardbase that was scored at 5 1/2".  For some reason I've been loving top folding cards lately!

OSAT Blog Hop - Halloween/Fall



Hello and welcome to the October One Stamp At a Time Blog Hop!  It is such a blast to be able to participate in this awesome Hop with this super talented bunch of crafty Friends!  This month's theme is Halloween or Fall.  If you've been hopping already, you should have landed here from Dena Rekow's blog and by now already know the theme!  Dena is awesome so I'm sure you enjoyed her blog!

Since we have a Halloween or Fall theme going I thought it would be a great chance to get another Halloween card made for one of my sweet granddaughters.



Now I have to admit that I'm not always into the Halloween stamp sets but when I saw this adorable owl in the "Howl-o-ween Treat" stamp set, how could I possibly resist??  Not only is it such a great stamp set but it has coordinating framelits that you can purchase in a bundle... how cool is that???  I started out wanting to just use the owl but then those spiders were so cute I had to have a little spider/spider web action going on too!

Here's a closer view of the spider web.  That poor owl flew right into it!




I love that the coordinating "Boo To You" framelits have the word Boo in them!  I used some of the awesome Black Glimmer Paper for it and it really stands out!

Here's the inside of my card.  Just a simple sentiment from the same set and a couple of spiders stamped in the corner. :)


So as you can see, for my 3-D Project I decided to make a treat holder that would coordinate with the card.  Did I mention I love owls???


Here's a little closer view.  I used the Scallop Stripes Thinlit Die to cut Blackberry Bliss cardstock and then layered it over the Basic Black for the body.  My bone folder was used to curl the little scallops and then I reattached at just the top with Multipurpose glue.  



I hope you've enjoyed my projects and are ready for some more inspiration!  When you click the next button you'll have quite a treat because Terri Takashige is fabulous!  Enjoy!

SIP #14 Sketch Challenge

Good morning!  I've had such a great weekend and am ready for a great week!  Since it's Tuesday, that means another Stamp, Ink, Paper Challenge!  This week we have an awesome sketch!  I know you can take this one and run with it! There are endless possibilies with this sketch for sure!

This time I surprised myself!  lol  Yep, I actually made a Halloween card!  I don't make a lot of Halloween cards but I usually do make one for each of my granddaugthers so I thought this sketch would be a great chance to get one of them done.  Yep, one down, four more to go!  :)


I bought some Halloween doilies and paper in a group share (Thanks Regina!) since I don't use a ton of Halloween stuff.  This was just the perfect amount of goodies to get the cards made that I wanted to make.  For my card today I started with an A2 Basic Black card base.  I added a 5 3/8" x 4 1/8" piece of Very Vanilla cardstock that has been embossed in the Woodland Textured Impressions Embossing Folder and then sponged with some Smoky Slate Ink.  The larger rectangle on the left side of the card had a mat of 5 1/8" x 2 1/2" Basic Black cardstock and a layer of Typeset DSP that measured 4 7/8" x 2 1/4".  The smaller rectange had a mat of 3 x 2 1/2" Basic Black DSP and a layer of 2 3/4" x 2 1/4" Happy Haunting DSP.  I added a section of the new Black Spider Web Doilie.  Using the Owl Builder Punch I punched out a Owl in Basic Black.  I used more of the Happy Haunting DSP for his middle.  His eyes were Very Vanilla, Tangelo Twist, and Black.  I punched out two wings with the Bird Builder Punch and gave them a little bit of a jagged trim before adhering them to my owl.  My Sentiment is from the Happy Scenes Stamp set and was stamped on Very Vanila with a Tangelo Twist mat and I cut banner ends in both with the Banner Punch. 

Thanks so much for stopping by!  I hope you'll head over to Stamp, Ink, Paper and link 
up your own Sketch Challenge Card this week!
