A Challenge or Two.

In just 15 days Stampin' Up! Demonstrators around the world have sold 7524 I (Heart) Heart stamp sets raising $15 048.00 for the Haitian Disaster Relief. Fantastic! If you would like to help click here for details.

Here is a card I made using the colours in this months Colour Coach Challenge. Perfect Plum, Pretty in Pink, So Saffron and Mellow Moss. I've used my new stamp set Razzle Dazzle from the Summer Mini and my new toy the Circle Scissor Plus. (Love it)

I've just realised that this card is very close to this weeks sketch challenge at JUST ADD INK . If you haven't see this blog yet you should check it out, the cards the Design Team create are amazing. So my card is turned to the side and the circle is to the right a bit but I think it's close enough to enter. :)

Recipe
Stamp Set: Razzle Dazzle
Ink: VersaMark
Markers: Perfect Plum, Pretty in Pink, So Saffron, Mellow Moss
Card: Perfect Plum, Pretty in Pink, So Saffron, Whisper White
Tools: Circle Scissor Plus
Punch: word window
Accessories: Grosgrain ribbon So Saffron(retired)

I hope to get a few more challengers done this weekend, we'll see.

From Teressa.

I've been meaning to show you this gorgeous vase of flowers Teressa made for me. I think they are beautiful. I love having flowers that will last forever. She has used the Retro Remix wheel and the Hello Again stamp set.

Thank you so much Teressa.

Hi, I'm busy getting the kids back to school things ready this week, It's sad that the holidays are almost over. We've had a very relaxing time.
The card today has a beach feel to it. Using the Nature's Nest stamp set from the Summer Mini. I've used the reptile skin technique to make the seaweed, that was Alex's idea. Very cool. And used the markers directly onto the shell stamp to get that multi coloured effect.

Recipe
Stamps: Nature's Nest, Sincere Salutations
Ink: Choc Chip, VersaMark
Markers: Choc Chip, Close to Cocoa, Really Rust, More Mustard
Card: Confetti White, Kraft, Really Rust, More Mustard
Tools: Stamp a ma jig,
Accessories: linen thread, paper towel, crystal effects, dimensionals
