SCIC Challenge #65 Little Houses

 
















When I saw this months Stampin' Celebration Inspiration Challenge the houses made me think of the Good Neighbors stamp set. So that is what I used!  I used the colors Perfect Plum, Island Indigo, Chocolate Chip, Old Olive, Daffodil Delight, Crumb Cake and Rose Red.  I stamped the houses on a Framelit Label and sponged the edges.  I did a little splatter on the Crumb Cake.  I topped it off with some Delicate Details Lace Tape and a cute button!  Thanks for looking!

Love SCIC Challenge #63

I needed to make a quick Valentines card so I came to the Stampin' Celebration Blog for some inspiration!  I did a replica of the frame in the inspiration.  I have been wanting to use the Glimmer Paper, so this was perfect.  I made the card 3"X3".  It is super simple with a bit of sparkle!
 

Simple Love SCIC Challenge #62

I made a little love note for this month's Stampin' Celebration Inspiration Challenge #62.  

 
The soft colors made me think of something sweet and cute, and I knew I wanted to use the retired Sending Love Notes as my base.  I stamped the Pink Pirouette cardstock with snowflakes from The Snowflake Spot stamp set using Whisper White Craft Ink.  I cut the letters with my Bigshot and outlined them with Pool Party polka dots.  This was a very quick card which would be great for Valentines!  Thanks for looking!

Stampin' Celebration Challenge # 59

 It was time for another Stampin' Celebration Inspiration Challenge!

When I first saw the challenge I had no idea what I was going to do.  I eventually went with punching similar flowers out of cardstock and ended up with a very simple but neat card.  The colors I used were Baja Breeze, Tangerine Tango, Basic Gray, Basic Black, and Whisper White.  Thanks for looking!

Fall Candle

 I really liked this month's Stampin' Celebration Inspiration Challenge.  Fall is my favorite season. I love everything about it- the colors, the smells, the weather, the activities...and we are finally going to have some fall like weather this week so I was excited to make a fall project.  

I really liked the mason jars and candles in the inspiration so I went with that and created a candle holder.  

I stamped leaves from the retired Autumn Leaves stamp set on crinkled up vellum and cut them out.  I like how the crinkled vellum added a leaf-like texture.  The belly band was done using the same technique with the Woodgrain stamp.  I added punched branches and Dahlias to finish it off.  I created a crinkled paper flower for the lid to tie into the inspiration even more!  I filled the jar with crinkled paper confetti and a flameless candle.  This was a fun home decor project just in time for fall!

ColourQ Challenge #150

I really liked working with the fun colors this week from the ColourQ Challenge #150.   I needed to make a Birthday card so these colors were perfect.  

 

 

 I made the cake out of card-stock and embellished each layer with a different pattern.  I made the 'happy target' from the round 'Happy Birthday' stamp from the Happiest Birthday Wishes stamp set and just punched out the 'happy circle.'  This was a fun card to make and it would be a fun card to receive!  Thanks for looking!

Grey and Yellow SCIC # 57

This month's Stampin' Celebration Inspiration Challenge was all about grey, yellow, and white! Here was the inspiration...

And this is what I came up with!

I used So Saffron, Basic Grey, and Whisper White to create my card. The flowers are from the Apple Blossom (hostess) set.  (It was the closest flower stamp I had to the ones in the inspiration). Thanks for looking!
