Freshly Made Sketches #174

Hello everyone,

Happy Wednesday!! This is my thirs post for today! Please scroll down for the 3rd MCT Sneak Peek and the new The Card Concept Challenge!

Welcome to a new Challenge over at Freshly Made Sketches!!
This week it's my turn to bring you our new Sketch!! It's a pretty simple one too! I hope you'll like it and get inspired to play along?!! The circle can be any shape!! :)

I made two cards...yes two! NOT because it's "my" Sketch...but reather because i couldn't make up my mind,which of my cards i like more!! hehe Plus i was pretty much inspired by my new Clearly Besotted goodies!! ;)

The first one is a more elegant one! At the end,i thought i might used a little to much gold...but nah...i think it's ok,i guess! ;)
I used the beautiful new Set called Sketched Blooms from Clearly Besotted,and the stripes in the background are also from CB...Basic Stripes!! I used ZING! Gold Embossing Powder and My Favorite Things - Grape Jelly Ink for the flower!
The stitched Panel was die cut,using My Creative Time's Stitched Recangular Frame Dies and More!

For my second card i used the sweet Set from Clearly Besotted,called In Stitches Easter!

The Card Concept #29

Hello everyone,

Happy Wednesday!!
This is my second post for today! You may scroll down for the new My Creative Time new release Sneak Peek!!

We are back with a new Challenge over at The Card Concept!!!

This card for the Clean and Graphic style took my quite a while and i wasted quite some white cardstock on it!! ;)
I ended up by masking a star shape on my cardbase and stamped some stars inside.But than it looked to naked,so i took a dark grey marker and drew a line around it! BUT that,also didn't look right,so i die cut a star frame and added some wink of stella to it!!

supplies: Clearly Besotted - Superstar and Many Messages, Sizzix Star Dies, Wink of Stella, My Favorite Things - Hybrid Inks

Check out the TCC Blog and look at what the other girls created with this inspiration!!

Happy Sunday!! I hope everyone was having a great week and weekend so far!!
Mine is ok.
My daughter was at a concert yesterday of her favorite German rapper!! ;) Well,it was Guns n' Roses,Metallica and AC/DC back in my Teenager years!! hehe
She was SO happy,that she got to make a photo with him and she did get to hug him!! I am having one happy 15 year old at home!! haha

Ok,on to my card.I got to make a card yesterday for the latest Tag You're It! Challenge!

I made a baby card,since my cousin just gave birth to her 3rd Child.An adorable littel girl. :)
I am sorry,if my cards look a little similar lately! I'm just so in love with My Creative Time's Stitched Rectangles,Heidi Swapps Color Shine and American Crafts Woodgrain Cardstock! Please bear with me,it's not gonna last forever!! ;)
I die cut two Tags from My Create Time's Just Tags.I sponged the top one with My Favorite Things Lemon Drop Hybrid ink,and added a stripe of Washi Tape at the bottom! I used the same ink on the cute Elephant's ear.Speaking of the Elephant,this cute little guy and the "Baby Girl" are from Clearly Besotted's Baby Shower Stamp and Die Set! The "Joy" is also frm Clearly Besotted.

I wish everyone a happy sunday!!

Welcome to a new Freshly Made Sketches Challenge!!!
I LOVE this weeks Sketch...well like every week! ;) Our fabulous and very sweet Jen Mitchell is our Hostess this week!! Here comes her awesome Sketch:

Instead of going "straight" like on the Sketch,i thought i'll be fun to use Clearly Besotted's Decorative Edges Shallow Dies,to make it more round on my card!
I started by stamping the heart and star sprinkles,that come in CB's "With Sprinkles" on some Tim Holtz Watercolor cardstock.I clear heat embossed it and sponged over it with Tumbled Glass distress ink and My Favorite Things Grape Jelly and Lemon Drop Hybrid Inks.The cute Donuts,heart cookie and sentiment are also from Clearly Besotted "With Sprinkles"! I used the same colors on them,like i did on my background.I did a little finishing touch on them,by using Glossy Accents and Ranger Clear Rock Candy Distress Glitter.

The Card Concept #27

Hello everyone,

Happy Wednesday!!

Welcome to a new Challenge over at The Card Concept!!
We have a awesome inspiration for you!!

I was totaly inspired by the "LOVE" of the inspiration photo!! I loved the placement and the colors!!
So i tried to copy that!!
I should have kept the center of the O inside.The longer i looked at it,the more i thought it would have looked better,but it was already somewhere deep in my trashcan! ;)
I used an ABC die set from Lawn Fawn and the you is a chipboard from Create a Smile,which covered with red ink.

Stop by The Card Concept Blog and check out the beautiful creations from the Team!!
Would love,if you'de have time to play along!!

Made in Minutes

Hi everyone,

Happy Monday!! I hope everyone had a wonderful weekend!!!
I would like to thank each one of you,for stopping by during sneak peek and our Blog Hop on Friday!! I enjoyed reading your comments!! :)

Ok,today it's Made in Minutes Monday over at My Creative Time!
Which means,we are supposed to make any project of our choice in less than 20 minutes!
This was the first time,i made a card with the Stop watch! Boy,was i nervoes!! haha
BUT,i made it!!! :)
One thing though...next time i'll make sure to not heat emboss and watercolor! ;) This sure took me the longest!!

I started by die cutting the big and small heart! Than i stamped a background stamp on the big heart with clear glitter embossing powder and a sentiment on the little heart with white embossing powder!
I've used Iced Spruce and Worn Lipstick Distress Ink to watercolor both hearts! Than i die cut the word die 3 times,glued them together and adhered it to the big heart. Oh and one little hmmm...well mistake...is the eyelet!! When i started with my card,i had something else in mind,i was going to make a Tag out of the heart! But within a few minutes after i punched the whole,i changed my mind.But since there was no time,i just left it alone than!!
The Cardbase was cut with MCT's Stitched Rectangular Frame dies and more!!
And for the finishing touch,i added some Wink of Stella to the word die and a few gems to the cardbase!!

Supplies:

Stitched Rectangluar Frame Dies and More

Family is Everything

Heart 2 Heart Love Frame Dies

Love Collage
