Featured Stamper - Gloria #2

I was so inspired by this card > of Gloria's to go with  < this dress.  Strange inspiration, but this dress is so glorious it just reminds me of the opera!  This is a first time I didn't actually CASE the card but really was inspired by it!  This is also for Clearly I Stamp challenge of a ribbon.  Hope you are all having a wonderful Sunday - I know I am - I am stamping~~  Thanks for stopping by--

Featured Stamper - Angela Crockett

I am drawn to stars this week so I chose this card out of Angela's amazing gallery!  WOW!  She has quite the selection for sure!  I love the vintage look   [I took my trusty big dauber and sponged really rust around the edges for the effect].  I hope you noticed that I attempted my sewing machine (which I FINALLY got threaded correctly so it works right now) - can you see my stitches are ALMOST straight! I am getting there... between coloring with copics and sewing a straight line my personal challenges are still there!  LOL.  I used my new star nesties!  [I so love nesties!]  I also used my new SU punch. This is also for Clearly I Stamp - a square card~ mine is 51/2.

  Thanks for stopping by! 

 

Color Challenge

This is for Clearly I Stamp color challenge - Red, Black & White (w/ pink if you want).  I used the wonderful images that my friend Diana Q (over at Wordbird's Nest) sent me.  As usual, I am still struggling with my copics.  I'm telling you sponging is the way to go~ LOL!  I can't wait to see what Diana does with her images~~that will give me some ideas!  [Creative I am not!!]  I need to see it - than I can change it!  Are any of you like that~ or are you fortunate that you can create?  Okay my friends - that's it for today... Thanks so much for stopping by!!  Vicki


F/U - I made Top 5 with this card!!  WOO HOO!!
