It's a Crazy One


It's a crazy Monday on my blog today. I am starting with the STAMPlorations Sketch;


I might have pushed it a little, but the general layout is there.  I used Vignette; Trendy Feathers.  This set really draws me back to it.  I just love the cute feathers.  I used embossing on the sentiment and the feathers, sticking a gold embossed feather in the back. [That is the October Monthly Challenge; stamps and embossing]

Come on over to the STAMPlorations Blog and play along in the challenges! We can't wait to see what you create!  And yes, there is a prize for the random winner~


On to the Muse Challenge - I am the Muse this week.  Gosh, I am hoping my card inspires you!  It really is fun to see what is created from my card....

 I wasn't sure I loved this card, but I do like it.  I see potential for you all to make it even better! :)  I gold embossed Maya Road Vintage Doilies Stamps, and stamped my sentiment on vellum.  Definitely an easy card to recreate~  Have fun! [please ;)]


And, lastly, my card for A Walk Down Memory Lane.  Just a heads up, this will be my last month for Cards on Monday.  Lisa is currently running a Design Team call,  [thankfully, she has asked me to stay on] and the new Team will be starting in November.

I have a small tutorial on how I made this card, along with the supplies used, over on the Walk Down Memory Lane Blog.  Pop on over and check it out~
PLEASE NOTE:  Lisa is running a DT call!!  Are you interested?  Click HERE for the info.



Thanks for stopping by~

Whoa lots of goodness here Vicki. I love that tag and black cards are always striking and elegant. I love the look of the vellum for the sentiment. And the last card just makes me smile with all the color.

WOW, what a lovely collection of cards, Vicki!!! So different, but all equally beautiful!!!
I love your tag!! The bright yellow is lovely and I like the small border of horizontals at the side and the sentiment on the other side!! The feathers are stunning and I love the circle of twine. Perfect choice of ribbon to add to the top!! Great tag!!!
I love the CAS style of your Muse card - the gold embossed on the black is just great and I love the sweet sentiment on the vellum strip!! Lovely!!
The colours on the WDML is just soooo delish!!!! Love it!!! The little bit of black you added is perfect!! The flowers are so pretty!!! Beautiful!!!

A terrific trio, Vicki. Love the pretty feathers tag, the gold/black combination of your Muse dazzler and the vibrancy of the third. A whole lot of happy happening here! The DT call sounds exciting; looking forward to who the newcomers will be (wish I had the skills being sought...maybe some day)
