SC206 Simply Delights, Mojo64 Silent Night

Hello everyone!!!

It is *full moon* and I couldn't sleep last night - again!!! I'm a mess - LOL!!!

Anyway - I saw the SC206 posted and I must tell ya - I love this Sketch - isn't it awesome???

My dilemma was that I couldn't find the Set I wanted to use right away...that's the bad part about moving stuff around - LOL!!! So I went on a search for my *Simply Delight* Sent Kit...well I forgot I took the Stamp Set out of the box and added it to they other ones....I think it took me 30 minutes to realize that.....but I was soooo happy when I finally found it......

Here is what I did with it - I inked the medallion in Chocolate Chip *Craft* Ink and embossed it with Clear EP. I punched them out with the 1 3/8" Punch and layered them onto 1 1/2" Chocolate Chip Circles. The gorgeous DP is from the *Haiku* Collection. The center panel - also layered onto Chocolate Chip - and the medallions were raised with Stampin Dimensional. To finished it all off I added the sentiment from *All Holidays* and I added the big Halfback Pearls from the *Pretties Kit*.

Hope you like it????

Here is a card I made for Julee Tilman's

Mojo64 Sketch.

I used this cute Stamp cleaning up the other day it's from Stampendous called *Silent Night Snowman* I bought this many years ago at Archiver's - I believe - LOL!?!

I colored the snowman with Ballet Blue and Pumpkin Pie Markers. I bedazzled it with DD Glitter. The DP in the BG is from the Mini Holiday Brochure *Frosty Day*.

The Ribbon is also from SU - Ballet Blue.

I added some blue Gemstones from Hero Arts and scored the bottom three times. This makes a quick card for the Holidays and I still need a few!!!

Thank you for stopping by!!! Have a wonderful day!!!

WT #157 Friendship - Just Because

Oh boy, oh boy....what saved me today with this "Ways to Use it" challenge #157 is that I hoard DP's!!!

Bad habit..,but I just love them all....LOL!!!

When I used to live in St. Louis, MO I'd always go to my favorite store in the whole wide world -"Archivers" and I just had to have it all...!!!

So I was digging thru my stash and found some beautiful Basic Grey DP (pink) and I also had some Die-cut Tags that went with this collection. The other DP is from the "Brocade Backgrounds".

The base of my card is Old Olive and I adhered the DP onto it and then I decided to use the "Simple Delights" Set from the Simply Sent Kit - did I mention how much I love this set???? I think it is sooooo elegant!!

The image was stamped straight onto the DP in Craft Chocolate Chip Ink and embossed with clear EP. I trimmed it and layered it onto the brown DP...and then I raised them onto the longer panel of DP and raised it all up again. Before it was placed - I used the medium Eyelets and placed the
"Halfback White Pearls" from the "Pretties Kit" on it.

I guess since it turned out to be a more "elegant" card I had to use the CC Satin Ribbon.....

The Basic Grey tag sentiment was added on the side of the main image. I also used the sentiment from the Kit and stamped it onto DP with CC Ink before I punched it out and attached it to the Ribbon....~TFL~!!!

Just Because

As you all know Friday is my favorite day to participate in challenges.....Beate has a Sketch and Sharon is asking for "Fun Flaps" - go and check them out!!!

As I was looking at both of them I knew I could combined them - somehow....!!!

Since I already had the "Simple Delights" in my hand I just stuck with it....and this is what I came up with....

My layout was based on Beate's WSC #38. I started with Chocolate Chip as my main CS. Then I layered it with River Rock and Chocolate Chip again. All corners were punched with the "Ticket Corner" Punch.

Then I cut the "Brocade Backgrounds" DSP in
1 3/4" x 2 1/2" pieces and also punched out the corners with the "Ticket" Punch and adhered them to my CC CS. I used the "All in a Row" on the edges to give it a stitched impression - saw that on Beate's card and I have never tried it before and I like it....just make sure you use your"Stamp-A-Ma-Jig" with it!!!

After I placed the DSP onto the CS I added some medium Copper Eyelets on the bottom right hand and attached some "Pearlgems" on top.

Next step was to create a "Fun Flap" from Sharon's challenge...I used a River Rock CS and cut it 2 1/4" x 5 1/2". Then scored it at about 2 7/8". The "Slit" Punch was used on the bottom of the longer side and the shorter side should fit right in.

I stamped the sentiment right above the "Slit" and added a Satin Choco Ribbon. The main image was stamped with the Craft Chocolate Chip Ink and embossed with the clear EP. I also dressed it up with an medium Eyelet and "Pearlgem". I placed the Flap on Stampin Dimensionals before I placed it on a CC CS.

Of course all my layers were raised with Stampin Dimensions....~TFL!!!~

LSC158 Simple Delights

Happy Friday!!!

I like todays Limited Supply Challenge #158 - very easy task....- to make "Quick Cards" - right up my alley!!!

In this case I used my Cuttlebug - love all the different folders they over too. My favorite folder so far is the "Textile" - which I used on this card.

I used Chocolate Chip for my base and added a scrap of So Saffron, Choco again and Very Vanilla.

The stamp is from the "Simple Delights" - my all time favorite "Simply Sent Card Kit"!!! I inked it in Craft Chocolate Chip and embossed it with the clear EP!!!

I hope you all took advantage of the Satin Ribbon Sale Stampin Up had going on in December...I'm glad I did - I love the Satin Ribbons!!!
They are a great finish to any card you try to create...and not to forget the beautiful halfback "Pearl" I added. I think they are a must have right now!!!
