Loonie Stampers Chellenge #131

It is sketch time again Ladies!!

Wendy has brought us another FABULOUS Sketch to play along with and I suggest you play along, It is a fun one!!

I used some background paper  have been hoarding and layers my blocks of Cranberry Crisp (SU) that embossed with three different patterns. A little of this and a Little of that finished it off, including my cute green wrinkle ribbon that bought from Dee's Etsy store.....LOVE that stuff

Just another note: I was asked where I got the Purple twine from last weeks Challenge I also got that from Dees Store ;)

Lets see what everyone did this week, I'm sure it will be amazing!

Loonie Stampers Challenge #126

This weeks challenge was selected by yours truly! 

I decided on these colors based on the pretty sparkly chipboard type stuff that my wonderful Daughters picked out for me from Micheal's at Christmas time. I knew for sure that I wanted to use some dies to cut this stuff up....the colors remind of Neapolitan ice cream..LOL

Since the v-day season is coming up I decided to use those colors to do a card with that theme.

Lets go see how the girls did with my colors.

They were all saying over email that it was hard...Sorry girlies!

Loonie Stampers Challenge #125

 This week Wendy decided to shake it up a little bit and gave us a sketch. 

So Fun!!! I also think it is a LSC Consensus that she do sketches more often and we 

shall call her Sketchy bitch (play to the tune of Sexy Bitch)

Love it!

I embossed my card first and then attached some gigantic ric rac that I have been hoarding since the LSC vacation last summer. Isn't that stuff amazing? Anywho then I dug out some PTI dies and made a flower (little DSP, Little felt) Topped it off with a button on top!

Lets see what this sketch looks like in the eyes of my fellow LSC Chicks!

Loonie Stampers Challenge #124

 Welcome back!

Last week I was still suffering some holiday fog and was extremely late with my post, I seem to have things back on track! So I dug right into this weeks color challenge provided by Miss Delaware, Maria!

I am going to start by telling you about the stamp that I used.

My husband, following traditions of the past 14 years, took our Daughters with him while Christmas shopping on....yup, December 24th!! They ended up in Micheal's and my Daughters picked out this beautiful Angels set by INKADINKADO.

So I stamped and cut it out and colored it up with my Prisma pencils. I {heart} Prisma!! (I wonder if the loonies are still tired of hearing me say that?) Now it is hard to tell in the picture but the sentiment is stamped in Enchanted evening with the word Love being stamped in Dark Chocolate! I also used a tiny bit of blue to enhance the appearance of her wings.

I am also glad to say that I figured out a way to take a descent photo with my iPhone since my camera is out of commission at the moment....Can you believe I took this photo when it was dark as midnight outside???

Don't forget to to swing by the Loonie Blogs and see what they have been up to!

Loonie Stampers Challenge #121

This week Wendy gave us some BRIGHT and CHEERY Christmas colors, but I like to break the rules.That's how I roll, SO I did NOT make a Christmas card. Watch we probably all did the same thing. Anywho I shall not ramble on because it is 5 am and I just worked all night......Have a great weekend everyone!

No go get some more inspiration from my favorite bloggers...

Loonie Stampers Challenge #119

pockets! How fun is that...this is my interpretation of a pocket on a card....

I figured a card with snowflakes on it was appropriate since we have been dumped on for the last few days. I hate winter for only the simple fact of driving. People in this crazy city still drive like it is July. Hello people, 4x4 is no the cure all for snow and ice.

Anyway, lets go see what the ladies are up to...

Loonie Challenge Catch Up #2

yup! ONE stinkin layer!
.... and I actually like the simplicity of it.

Thanks for tuning in...late. Hope everyone is staying warm out there!

Loonie Challenge Catch Up #1

After solving my technical difficulties (I was able to borrow Camera Equipment from my great photog friend Justin) I can now catch up on the loonie challenges!

First up was Char;s Challenge to use doilies, which I didn't have so I created a doilies look with my snowflake stamped edge of this cookie bag tag. I also surrounded it with lace, which was actually given to all us Loonie Girls by Char on our Loonie Getaway last July.

I actually had an order for 16 of these cute little bags, fun and easy to make!

Loonie Stampers Challenge #116

Well it is my week to pick some colors!
Since Winter is upon (or will be) I want to stay reminded of spring so
I went with some bright cheery colors!

This is a card I made for a new friends' birthday. She is one of my Co-workers girlfriends and I she is so fabulous I thought she needed a fabulous Birthday Card.

I had a lot of fun ditching the patterned paper and keeping it simple with some colored polka dots, I mean, how can you go wrong with dots, right?

I layers some flowers made of felt that I cut using my papertrey dies. thank goodness with felt I dont have to throw my dies against the wall, right Wendy?!

Lets go see what the ladies made, y'all know that they love multiple
colors especially new leaf...haha

Loonie Stampers Challenge #115

Wendy has us all thinking about a hot vacation. Let me tell you that sounds REALLY good about now. But since I can't i will just have to pretend that us loonies are kicking back on a beach somewhere drinking beergiritas!!

It is kinda hard to read in the picture but the sentiment says "Good friends, Good Books. This is the ideal life. ~ Mark Twain" and then on the inside I wrote ... and a little vacation doesn't hurt either. this is for a friend of mine that is taking a cruise with some of her friends. I am begging her to tuck me into a suitcase but still no luck!

Thanks for stopping by... hope you go check out the girls schtuff!

Loonie Stampers Challenge #114

Ok, so this week with Maria's colors I had to cheat a teeny tiny bit. I was going to order the New Linen color from papertrey but my PayPal wouldn't let me use anything but credit card which i dont have. This has happened to me a few times but only on PTI, weird!

Anywho, I used some Stampin Up Kraft taffeta ribbon as my New Linen substitute and I think it works. I also used one of their new embossing folders and I have to say I am so in love with how crisp the embossing looks compared to my previously beloved cuttlebug folders.

Well I can't wait to go see the goods from the other loonies.
Do you think anyone cheated this week?

Loonie Stampers Challenge #111

Well Char wanted us to go crazy with buttons. I am crazy for sure but not with buttons. So the first card I was almost done and realized "how and I going to incorporate buttons with this?" So I used some of my SU buttons. But that wasn't good enough so I made another card. Plus I had done this card a few weeks back that would have been perfect for this challenge as well.

This was the next card that I made with my brand new SU Embossing folder (love them)

I tried to do a close up so you could see that I sprayed glittery schtuff on the whole card but I dont know if you can really see it.

After the crazy week I have had of ups and downs it sure was gooooooooood to get in my room and make some cards. Thank god for the LSC! Now go see how crazy the loonies are this week..ok!

Loonie Stampers Challenge #110

So it was my week to pick the challenge and I went with this one for one reason. It never seems to fail that when I need a birthday card for a toddler (and usually in a hurry) I never have any. SO this was the perfect opportunity to make one.

I mean really, who doesn't love cupcakes, yum!

Loonie Stampers Challenge #109

Wendy picked our challenge this week and I was singing a happy tune as soon as I took a peek at the colours. I LOVE these colors together and to add the natural vintage-y look by distressing it...Good job Wendy!

and yes I cheated...I added green but for this Bella image I HAD to, right? right!

Loonie Stampers challenege #107 - rainbows

Today Dee selected for us to use rainbows and at first I thought she meant to use the colors of the rainbow, but she meant actual rainbows so please ignore the flower in the color map above. haha that was my blonde moment for the week.

But I did catch that mistake BEFORE I made my card so I thought I would dig out some buttons (turns out I have hundreds laying around) and used them in my own version of a rainbow.

thanks for checking out y card today and dont forget to see what bright sunshiny rainbows the girls have posted :)

Loonie Stampers Challenege #106

This week I cheated. Ok so I just wanted to admit that right up front and get it out of the way. We are "supposed" to be using fabric and I used felt. I just couldn't help it. I finally got my wonderful papertrey stuff and I HAD to try out the bookmark die with the felt. So I made this for my friend (I don't know if she will get much use out of it because she is one of those 'read the whole book the same day' kinda girls)

Anyway, even though I cheated, I adorned my bookmark with a great image colored with prismas of course! Now lets go see if I am not alone in the cheating department shall we?!

Loonie Stampers Challenge #104

Good Friday morning to you all!!

This is the card that i made...i kinda likes it! I colored the image with my prismas (have I mentioned how much I LOVE PRISMAS?) Any who lets go see if anyone still found a way to cheat. Thanks for popping in! Have a great weekend!
