TSOT #227

Hi all, Just flying past to share this weeks Try Stampin' On Tuesday. It's a great sketch combo that you can use the photo as inspiration, the sketch or both!

Here's my take. I started out using the colours as a guide, but completely threw it out the window with the balloons :)

Hope you can join us this week!

Thanks for looking 

Addicted to CAS #53

Hello, Hello!! Well I've been busy here today - I think I did a mini freak out and realised that I had NO Christmas cards and yep it's Dec 1st! So today I bunkered down and started creating.

This is a card I created for the challenge over at Addicted to CAS and the code word is 'Dots':

Now for those who know me, dotted embossing seems to be my go-to, so I thought this challenge was perfect for me :) I used whisper white, wild wasabi and crumb cake, with a touch of sparkle for my colour combo. My tree is from Festival of Trees and the sentiment is from Endless Wishes and the embossing folder is the Large Dots from Stampin' Up!

Thanks for stopping past and taking a look!

Motley Monsters Part 2

Hi! Welcome back to my second card using the Motley Monster designer paper. As I previously said, halloween isn't really a big thing here in Australia, so I wanted to be able to utilize this paper for other occasions.

When cutting this DSP, make sure that you cut a piece which has no eyes (unless you want them :) This card is a little darker than what I'm used to, but I like this look for the guys in our lives or for that lady who doesn't do frilly.

If you want to check out the first card in this series then click here. Also if you are looking for some sketch inspiration, you can see all the sketches I have done for Try Stampin' On Tuesday on my pintrest board, HERE.

Thanks for looking and come back in a few days and I'll show you card number three.

TSOT #191- Motley Monsters Part 1

Hello! It's time for another sketch over at Try Stampin' On Tuesday. This twist for this week is to also use black, yellow and orange.

Now those of you that have been following me for a while now, would know that these colours are NOT my go-to colours. But I was going through my patterned paper and found this lolly paper and it went from there.

I did realise when I looked at the sketch again, I completely blanked on the 5th element - whoops ;) Anyway, I was happy with the end result. 

This weeks sketch:

I would love it if you popped back over the next week, as I'm doing a series on Motley Monster paper. In Australia, halloween isn't that big, so I wanted to show you other occasions you could use for Motley Monster designer paper.
