Blues


Here is my Mercy's Tues. sketch challenge entry. I needed a mono card for one of my swap challenge so went with blue and used Mercy's sketch. Paper is from JoAnn's, silk flower and ribbon from Micheal"s, brad from Hobby Lobby and the embossing was done with the cuttlebug birthday embossing folder. Enjoy, Janet

Love is in the Air


Another Simple Doodles card using my home made crayon background and the new Heart Bear digi stamp. I made this for a Birthday card for a little girl. The sketch is from the Just Christmas and Birthdays Wed. challenge. To make the background paper I grated color crayons onto wax paper (put the wax paper onto a firm pad of newspaper) when I had all my colors grated I placed my sheet of cardstock on top, put a old piece of a sheet on top and then ironed everything. Make sure you use a hot iron, no steam. Look at your paper and if it needs more color grate more crayons and repeat the ironing. It works pretty easy. I am not sure if this is the directions given on other sites I lost the web sites and went with my own idea on how to complete this project. Hope you have fun trying it out, Janet

Pretty Blue Birthday


Here is my entry in the Stamping Sisters in Christ Sunday challenge. We had to use two of each thing we used on the card. So I have two blue papers, two silk flowers, two brads and two ribbon bows. Enjoy, Janet

Take a lick


Back in the swing of things here at home, tonights first card is for the Simple Doodles challenge to make your own background. I used flaked color crayons and my iron to make the background paper. The image is the new ice cream cone from Simple doodles and I used my cuttlebug embossing folder to make the design on the green paper. The sketch for my card is from the Sketch and Stash Monday challenge. Hope you all enjoy my card, Janet
