A tag for many challenges

I made this tag for several challenges.  Cheery Lynn is a tag, Crafty Secrets is Thankful or thank you, Learn a new technique is NO stamps.  I used a ready made tag, covered it with Prima Annalee papers, trimmed to fit, then added 3 different laces. I used the Cheery Lynn leaves and stacker flower 5. then I trimmed them with the classic stacker.  I added a gem to the center of the flower.  The Merci Beau-coup is from Crafty Secrets heartwarming vintage stickers French Labels.  Added some fluff to finish the tag.  Be sure to check out the blogs and websites to see these wonderful products.

Our Challenge today on Speedy TV is to use ribbon on our card.

Just Rite Round thank you

This beautiful medallion is a new set from Just Rite Stamps.  The blog challenge is to make a thank you card.  The Thank you is from an older set.  I used the scalloped circle dies from Cheery Lynn and the center die cut around the medallion is from Marianne dies.  Added some bling to finish the card.  The pink layer was fun thru the cuttlebug with the Kassie folder.

Just Rite, Give Thanks

I made this for the Just Rite challenge, give thanks. I used the pretty Kindness set.  I stamped it in Victorian Velvet distressed ink, cut with Labels 20.  Another labels 20 was used for the background and ran it thru the cuttlebug.  The pretty paper is new, adhesive fabric paper from JoAnn's and some pretty ribbon, pearls, flowers and leaves finished the card.

Our Daily Bread Sketch

This wonderful sketch is the challenge on Our Daily Bread Blog.
This Joy tree is one of the holiday stamps for this year.  The sentiment is from the Christmas Door set.  I stamped these in Versafine Majestic Blue on white cryogen paper.  Trimmed it in blue mirror card.  I colored the dove with a copic marker and added some bling from Michaels.  Be sure to check out the gorgeous DT cards on the blog. 

Stamping in time, Sentiment

Our challenge on Our Daily Bread Design is to use your favorite sentiment or make a card with a sentiment on it.  Unfortunately I need a sympathy card today for a friend, her mom died very suddenly.   I love this cross set from ODBD and it works so well with the spellbinders cross die cuts.  I embossed it in gold and then antiqued it with old paper distressed ink.  The sentiment is from The Heartfelt Sympathy set. 
I embossed it in gold and used the oval spellbinders behind both the image and sentiment. I added a leaf flourish from Cheery Lynn designs and the gorgeous paper is something new, fabric on paper, the texture is fantastic and it's so pretty.  I got the paper at JoAnn's.  It's from DCWV and it's adhesive fabric.  Be sure to check out the fantastic creations on the ODBD blog.
