C4C537-sketch challenge

Hello Friends!

Week three of the Crazy4challenges blog challenge is always a sketch challenge.

I love sketch challenges!

Here is the sketch:

And...here's the card that I came up with using the sketch.

I turned it sideways and used the grid dies from The Stamps of life.

The stamps are from the Corgis2stamp set.

I hope you will check out what the rest of the team came up with and  maybe even give it a try yourself!

Thanks for stopping by!

Rounded Corner Step Up

The Stamps of life is re releasing one of my favorite card dies today!!

It's the rounded corner step up card die.

I love the rounded corners on this die and...it comes with the grass and trees and the sun too!

Makes it so easy to create a fun scene.

I added the fence die and the dog from the friends4cookie set.

There are already lots of samples in the gallery and more to come so don't forget to stop by there for inspiration!

And of course...the grass die!

Standing Corgi Fold It Die

Hello Friends!

Stephanie released lots of new stuff today over at The Stamps of Life but I am sharing my favorite today!!!

This is Standing Corgi Fold it and he/she is ADORABLE!

The dies in this set make it easy to paper piece together this adorable card out of cardstock.

Here is a closer look at this cuties face.

I made her a little collar and stamped it with a sentiment from the 

House4cookie set.

National Dog Biscuit Day

It's the last day of my guest designer stint on the 

Crazy4challenges Blog.

Every day is "National Something Day" and apparently today is National Dog Biscuit Day.

So today's challenge was to create something with a biscuit or a dog or even any animal.

I came up with this cute little treat box for today's challenge.

I created this using the new Box it die from The Stamps of life!

This die allows you to turn any large die into a "box".

Basically it creates the middle part you see between the front and back panels.

The Box it die sold out right away but you can pre-order it and get it as soon as it's back in stock.

What else will you need to create this fun box?

Friends4cookie stamps

dog dies

House4cookie

Circle Dies

Scallop Circle Dies

I really enjoyed playing with all the ladies on the Crazy4Challenges blog.

Be sure and check it out when you need a little inspiration.

Amazing Birthday

There is a new Sassy Birthday sentiment set at the Stamps of Life!

Here is a card that I made using one of the fun sentiments.

I used my favorite doggies from the friends4cookie set and cut them out with the matching dies.  Then I added them to the card with 3D foam.

The bow is the Minibow die.  Love this die!!!

 

I colored the images with prisma color pencils and blended with gamsol and blending stumps.

The paper is from the Birthday Wishes paper pad.

That's it!

A pretty quick and simple card that the recipient will LOVE!

Hope it inspires you to create something for someone you love!

HELLO

Had a little time to make a quick little card set for a friend.

I used the Hello A2 Drop In Card Die.

I cut out the letters in each color and then mixed them up to make these four cards.

For the top card I added the wiener dog from the friends4cookie stamp set.

The one below uses the fox from the foxes2stamp set.

For the third one I used one of the adorable squirrels from fireworks4squirrel set.

And the final one has a monster from the Monsters4celebrations.

They all use flowers from the mini flower die set.

Well that's it for today...quick and easy note cards to say, "Hello".
