WOYWW157 and a Rubbernecker Inspiration Challenge

Ok, first things first.  The Rubbernecker Sisterhood Sunday challenge (SS18) this month is an inspiration challenge.                                                 

All the challenge details are here.  You've got the whole month to play and you could win a Stamp SET just for playing along that includes the awesome new sets for 2012!

Here's my card for the challenge:



I went with the colors and cupcake theme...my cupcake stands?  Why they're wine glasses, of course!  LOL

Party Time
Party Time - 439
Is this not the cutest set?  And just think..it could be yours just for making a card!!  I cut apart (gasp) the sentiment to make three separate stamps.  Now you know my secret...I cut up my rubber and acrylic stamps.

Now for a peek at my workdesk.for WOYWW157 at Julia's Stamping Ground..


This is the aftermath of the cardmaking..a few cupcakes that didn't make the color cut and my cut up rubber plus a journal in progress and various other parts and pieces that need to be put away.

Oh, and one last thing..(wink)



If you've been reading my blog, you know what this is.  Just leave me a comment telling me if you follow by email or reader.  This alphabet die set is by PTI.    I will draw a winner on June 20th.

Happy WOYWW!!

    I'm not really a stamper, but I love that tip about cutting your rubber up. I would just have not inked up the words I wasn't using. So much for what I know, which is obviously nothing (grin). Happy WOYWW from #4

    Is that your journal with the map on the front? I love it! It looks like the Hundred Acre Woods from Winnie-the-Pooh!
    Hope you have a great WOYWW!

    Ooh Charlene..I don't often admit to it but I'm a rubber cutter too! Such a useful skill! Love your cupcakes for rubbernecker, you're right it IS a great set. Love the way you casually mention a 'journal in progress' - thats a BIG thing..I need to see more!!
    No clue as to the die maker, but they look like the BG font....whoever, when you can reveal, please let me know - I feel a neeeeeeed coming on!

    The cupcake card is very cute! I didn't realize they were in wine glasses until you mentioned it. Hmm, red velvet cupcakes and wine?

    Ok I think it is the PTI block alphabet die, but it is a guess. Very clever of you to use the glasses as the cupcake stand. Love it and the little bling on each makes it the perfect final touch.

    I do believe I follow you already.

    Happy Crafting
