Challenges and Featured Stamper


Once again, I was able to make one card for a few challenges.  I love that!  This is for JUGS82; emboss resist -- Crazy 4 Challenges; 3 dp, 2 flowers, 1 button - mine has 3 since the sketch from Last But Not Least Challenge calls for 3. The sketch is by Wanda Cullen, a fellow Paper Doll who I am supporting.  It's so hard [sometimes] to get challenges off the ground.  Since I always start with a sketch, this was an easy help~~ :)  Need a fun sketch?  Head on over and play it lasts all month~  I used the newly released Gina K Designs stamp set Follow Your Dreams, illustrated by Theresa Momber.





One of my FAVORITE stampers is the Featured Stamper over on SCS; Susan Raihala!  What an amazing stamper Susan is.  Her style is CAS and she sticks to it like glue!  Her Simplicity Blog is the highlight of my morning - I love her cards, her style and her humor!  She is so funny, and always seems to have a hint or two for easier stamping  If you get a chance, hop on over to her blog - I guarantee you will like it, and most likely,  you will start your day with a chuckle!  Susan, congrats to you - this is a well deserved honor!  Once again, I used GKD;  Timeless Textures and Garden Silhouettes.
Thanks for stopping by~~
