StampTV CSS Alumni January Blog Hop

Hello and welcome to another StampTV CSS blog hop. Hopefully you have arrived here from Betty's blog. If not be sure to start at the beginning Here on StampTV so you don't miss any of the beautiful creations from the rest of the CSS group. Today we are using this sketch that Melissa Cash designed for us.

Here is my first card.  I used the butterfly from Dogwood and Butterfly and the sentiment from Follow Your Dreams, both sets from Gina K Designs.

For my second card I used Mountain Wilderness From Gina K Designs.

Make sure to leave a comment as you hop along because on Tuesday morning (January 17), we will randomly choose one of the comments from all the blogs and that person will receive a huge grab bag of fabulous Gina K. Designs Stamps!  Your next stop is Carla.  Thank you for stopping by.

Follow Your Dreams

 Hello I would like to start off by saying I am sorry for being such a bad blogger.  I haven't posted in in week, yikes!  I was out of town for all of the 4th of July weekend and did get a couple of post in, but with returning and getting life back in order at home and dealing with my allergies I didn't' do much of anything crafty.  Over the 4th I was able to spend time with my mom (Geri) and my sister (Theresa) stamping.  I love stamping with them.  So on to my card I made if for a few challenges first off, MoJo Sketch ( I love this sketch and plan on using it again) this week and I am just getting in under the wire.  Next for Cat's challenge on StampTV to swipe on swipe off, which is to take an ink pad ans swipe it across you paper.  Next up is for Stamp Somethings challenge to use butterflies or bugs.  Finally I am entering it into Stampin Sisters in Christ challenge, What works for you.  I have a ton of ideas for cards and I hope that I can get to them this week.  Thank you for stopping by.

Challenge Cards

 Last Thursday was the latest release from Gina K Designs.  Each month during the release party on StampTV there are a couple of challenges in which you have a chance to win a stamp set.  I always try to play along and these are my cards for the challenges.

First up is this card for Donna's challenge to make a one layer card with only one stamped image, one sentiment and one embellishment.  Boy this is a challenge for me as I love my layers.  I used Follow Your Dreams. The boat is colored with copics and the land and water area colored with prisma pencils.

 My next card is for Giovana's challenge of black and white and no other colors. I also used the sketch from this weeks challenge at  Card Positioning Systems.

Thank you for stopping by.

For Mom

Hello long time no post.  I have a case of missing mojo, so today I finally decided to give making a card a try and what better way than starting with a sketch from Mojo Monday?   I recieved my latest Gina K Designs order last weekend. This is my first card with Follow Your Dreams, Theresa Momber's newest set.  I love this set and dragonflies, so I had to use them first.  I colored them with copics and then gave the wings some shimmer with a Sakura gel pen.  The colors are so much better IRL.  For some reason I couldn't get the green and blue papers to photograph right.   Well, it is late and I have to get up early so I am cutting this post short.  Thank you for stopping by.
