Lady Golfer


I made this card using this week's Splitcoaststampers Sketch Challenge.  The sketch is here:


A fairly easy sketch to play with, I used some stamps that I had lying around in my craft room.  The stamps are from a Stampin Up set.  Paper is DCWV.  I used Spellbinders Nestabilities to die-cut the golf ball and popped it up with dimensionals.

Wishing you a tee-riffic week!.........................Paulette

Contest Winner!

 



I entered this card at the Rubber Stamp Events show in West Bend, WI. Theme was "Cinderella." I originally sent the card in without the word label and flourish. Barb from Rubber Stamp Events was nice enough to call me to say that my card did not meet the requirements for the contest---must have some stamping. I remade the card and added the stamped label and flourish. The Cinderella and carriage embossing folders were acquired at a garage sale for 50 cents for the set. My card won $50 for 3rd place!!!


The "Dream" stamp is from a set of Stamp N Plus Scrap N word set.  You can order this set by calling LuAnn at:(715) 271-1873

Thanks for stopping by, may all your dreams come

Summer's Fiesta



It's Summertime and the colors are bright, bold and sunny.  I love the happy colors and chose this stamp from Stamp N Plus Scrap N.   The happy flowers were made by my BFF Hedy who fashioned them from seam binding.  The leaves were punched from a Punch Bunch punch that I picked up for 40 cents at St. Vinny's.  The background was dry embossed with a folder by Sizzix.  The colorful gems remind me of confetti from a pinata or fireworks---both items present at a fiesta.

I designed this card for a challenge on Unruly PaperArts.



Hope your Summertime is filled with Happy!.......Paulette
