MashUp! Bag and Card

It was party time over at the Friday MashUp! this week...here are the parameters...

1. Make a project using the " Party Time " theme.
2. Or Make a project using the " Box in a Bag "
3. Or "Mash it Up" and create a "Box in a Bag with a Party Time theme."

HERE is the tutorial for the Box in a Bag that I made - The tutorial is done by Amanda Corbet at Krafting Kreations.  It was really quick and easy to create.

I also used the sketch for the card from Stamping 411 from last week.  

Now I just have to fill the little bag with something yummy and pass it along to a friend to celebrate the end of the school year.

Hope you have something to celebrate - thanks for visiting.

Biking with my Friend

I'm so excited.....there's a new challenge blog and I've been asked to be on the design team...I was absolutely thrilled to be invited.  The blog is Sunday Stamps and the creator is the talented Holly Endress from HollyBeary Creations.  Each week will alternate between sketch and colour challenges....which are two of my favourite challenges to do!

Here is this week's sketch challenge.  I love it 'cause you can incorporate a lot of different shapes....although I stuck with circles for today.

For my creation I've pulled out some more new toys.  I'm loving the "Finishing Touches Edgelit".  I like punches - but these edgeless are SOOOO much easier and remove the need to line up holes.  I've also used one of the doilies from the "Delicate Doilies Sizzlit".  The base of the card has been embossed with the new Argyle Folder. 

I used the marker right on the bike from "Moving Forward".  Because the sentiment was at the bottom of the stamp I didn't add one with a tag - so I added a bow instead.  Like I said - it's a sketch you can tweak in a number of ways.

Try it out and link your creation to Sunday Stamps - and see what the other members of the design team  have created for inspiration.

Thanks for stopping by - Hope you're having a great start to your week.
