FS635 - Heartfelt Thanks

It's a gray, cloudy day here...let's just call it partly sunny to look on the bright side!

This week's Featured Stamper challenge (FS635) is highlighting the work of StampinHappy aka Angie.  My goodness!  This woman is a stamping machine!

I chose this card to CASE.  According to the rules, we are to change at least 3 things.

 I kept her sketch and the floral theme.  I changed the base design, left off the panel and since I didn't have her floral image or those pretty leaves, I used what I had on hand.

I'm not sure if you can see it but I  put the tiniest bit of shimmer of the flowers.  I put a bit of Wink of Stella on my finger and tapped it over the petals.

 Full disclosure...the flowers started out to be no line watercolored...basically, I stink at it.  I used a white gel pen to outline the petals after the water color dried.

Thanks for stopping by...be sure to visit Angie's gallery and play along.

Supplies:
Cardstock - Neenah 110 lb base, DP from my stash
Stamps - Flowers - Wplus9 Modern Anemones, Sentiment - Penny Black
Die cuts - MFT Greenery
Ink - TH Distress Antique Linen, watercolor, Copic fineline marker for stamens
Other - Wink of Stella, clear dimensional

Clean and Simple Monday

This week's CAS challenge on SCS (CAS162) is a sketch by one of the newest CAS DT members and one of the new Dirty Girls....Arizona Maine.  This girl has talent in abundance!

Mine is considerably more CAS than Angela's.  I combined it with the Featured Stamper FS267 Pinkberry challenge and CASed it up too.

Supplies:

Stamps - Rubbernecker Wildflowers (496-01), Sentiment (Garden Phrase Set 508)

Paper - PTI

Ink - Versamark

Other - SNS Black Detail EP, foam tape

Happy Valentine's Day!

Wishing you all a Happy Valentine's Day!  I'm finished with my Valentine's and since today is hubby's colonoscopy prep day (poor baby!) there will be no candy or fancy dinners here. 

I do have two cards for you...the first is for Teapot Tuesday.  Our destination this week is Burksville, KY and a young lady named Katy who is dealing with both heart and liver problems.  You can find all of Katy's info and the inspiration photo at the link above.

Our assignment was to camouflage a teapot on our card:

I'm not sure I exactly camouflaged it but we were also to use pink or red and pink it is!

The next card is for the Featured Stamper on SCS.  I don't often get to play since the challenge is on Sundays and my weeks are full but this week features the gallery of Kathy aka 101Airborne.   Kathy is always there with a kind word or comment for everyone and her gallery is full of fun and inspiration.

Here's my case of her card.  She used a sweet image from Mo's Digital and I just happened to have one of "Mary Jumping. 

                                     

I changed the colors and the sentiment placement as well as the image...so that qualifies for my 3 things to change. 

Hope your Valentine's Day is filled with love!

There's No Time Like the Present....

This week's Featured Stamper on SCS is the awesome StampGroover.  I'm late to her party but hope there's still some cookies left.    I chose this card to CASE.  The rules say you need to change at least 3 things so here we go...I changed the colors, the border, I used bling instead of buttons and added another layer.  This card is for my DH who's leaving on a business trip soon.  I always hide a little love note in his suitcase.  ;-)   He said once that those little notes keep him coming home.  

I used the Cutting Cafe's Clock Background and a sentiment from the HUGE (77 stamps!) It's About Time printable stamp set. 

The inside is for his eyes only.  ;-D
