OWH Sketch #64

I am so proud that I have the opportunity to show a sample of an OWH sketch.

I studied the sketch trying to figure out what I wanted to do with it. I love butterflies, so wanted to put one on the card. I also used my favorite stamp which is from Hero Arts.  I have used this stamp on so many of my cards. The butterfly is a Spellbinder's die. I can't find the boarder punch I used, but it is probably a Fiskars.

I used chalks to color the background and the butterfly. I stamped the sentiment in green ink then used Twinklett pens to add color with an iridescence look.   The gems are from Want2Scrap.

The butterfly is two pieces and I used a small popdot to place it.

GAB Sketch Challenge #10

Here is the GAB sketch for this week.

Here is what I did with it.  

I used my Cindy Loo Cricut cartridge to cut the bird house. The stripe paper is Colorbok double sided cardstock in Sage. The pink and that hit of brown on the birdhouse are left over scraps of Bazzill cardstock.. 

I like this sketch, its a good one for using up all those scraps we tend to  have laying around.

Go over to GAB Challenges for more information on this great sketch challenge.

 The picture to the left speaks for itself. I just finished the blog hop.  I visited 13 blogs and saw some really neat projects. Aside from visiting the blogs, there is a contest to win a Scor-Pal which ends in a little less than 24 hours from this post.  I hope I win the Scor-Pal; but even if I don't, I enjoyed all the blogs. Thank you Stamping Scrapping.

All projects had to use supplies from the following companies:

•   Spellbinders™ Paper Arts-Grand Calibur

•   Scor-Pal-Scor-Pal Scoring Board

•   Basic Grey-Patterned Paper

•   LaLa Land Crafts-Rubberstamps

I use spellbinders dies, don't have a Scor-Pal, love Basic Grey papers and I'm certainly going to have to go over to LaLaLand Crafts for a look see. 

GAB Challenge #9  COLOR

Three colors are So Saffron, Real Red, and Peach parfait

 

As you can see, my card is mostly So Saffron. It didn't start out that way, I miss read the colors. I made the motif without the Peach Parfait and placed it on a green card base. As I was typing in the colors I realized my mistake. I took the motif and added a layer of Peach Parfait and placed it on the So Saffron card base. I then added the ribbon strip. In less than a minute my card looked totally different.  There are so many ways to put these three colors together. Now its your turn. Have fun.

GAB Challenge #8

Challenge 8 is to make a project using your FAVORITE TECHNIQUE.

I don't have a favorite technique, but this month I am heat embossing. The jar on my card was heat embossed in blue to give it the look of being glass. The jelly beans in the jar were computer generated as was the colorful paper behind. The jar and sentiments stamps  are from Stamps by Judith. They are newly purchased so I am having fun using them. Thanks for visiting, now go make a fun project to enter at GAB.

Original sketch for GAB #6 Challenge

I don't have any green patterned paper so I had to make some. The leprechaun digi is from Stitchy Bear and isn't he cute?
