"Color Pop" Cardz TV Go-to Galz Challenge #34

Hello my crafty friends!  Happy Friday!  You know what that means, time for another Cardz TV Go-to Galz challenge!  This week's challenge is "Color Pop."  We are to make a card, layout, or other craft project using black, white, and a pop of yellow.

I used the Cardz TV Stamps set "Greater Love."  This is a beautiful set.  (Don't forget to check out the three new stamp sets Mary has in the store!)  The patterned paper is from Recollections.  For the large scallop circle, I used the Stampin' Up! 2 3/8 scallop circle punch, the white one is a 2 inch punch, and the black circle is 2 1/4.  I popped it up with pop dots.   I used two different EK Success flourish punches on the bottom center panel.  I made the two small rosettes.  I love this color combo!

Now it's your turn!  Just create a card, layout, or other craft project using black, white, with a pop of yellow.  You have until noon EST September 5, 2013 to enter your project.  Mary is giving away a set of her stamps to the winner!  I hope you join us for the challenge!  Make sure to stop by the other ladies on the Design Team and see their awesome projects!

Thanks so much for stopping by, and I would really love to hear from you!  Have a great weekend!

Lip Balm Holders

Hello my crafty friends!  I haven't posted for a little bit.  It's been a very busy time.  My little Princess started school today.  Anyway, I just wanted to share some lip balm holders I recently made with a friend of mine.  She gave me one similar to these so I decided to make some too.

  I used the Cardz TV Stamps set "This 'N' That" for the Hope your day tickles you pink!, and U R Amazing!.  The Just for you! is from the "Simply Said" set.  The two banner stamps are from a Stampin' Up! hostess set called Banner Greetings.  I bought the lip balms at a local Avon store.

I hope to post again soon.  Have a great week.  Hope to hear from you!

Lots of Hugs,

Happy Friday my crafty friends!  Today starts another challenge for the Go to Galz.  Today's challenge is called "Seeing Red."  Make a card, layout or other craft projecting using red as the main color.  For the sentiments I used the Cardz TV Stamps set "Heartfelt Wishes" for the Feel better soon, and Wishing you a speedy recovery!.

For the owl I used the Stampin' Up! owl builder punch.  I just love this punch!  So many possibilities.  The polka-dot paper is from Recollections.  I ran the black strip through the Cuttlebug using the Swiss Dots folder.  The corner punch is from EK Success.  For the sentiment I used the Stampin' Up! word window punch and the modern label punch.

So now it's your turn!  Just create a card, layout, or other craft project using red as the main color.  Easy peasy!  Once you've completed it, head on over to Mary's blog and enter your project into Mr. Linky.  You have until noon August 22, 2013.  Mary will be using random.org to pick a winner.  She will be giving away a set of her fabulous stamps.  I can't wait to see what you create!

Hoo's having a BIRTHDAY!

Hello my crafty friends!  I hope your Monday has started out great!  In our family, we have many birthdays in August and September.  I was looking through my cards and came across a Diamond Fold card I had made a long time ago for Halloween.  So I decided to make one for a birthday card.  I had recently purchased the Owl builder punch from Stampin' Up! (thanks Annette!)  My daughter and I have had fun with it.  Any hoo, the sentiments are from the Cardz TV Stamps set "For the Birds."  This set is perfect for my owl punch. The polka dot paper is from a 6 x 6 Bo Bunny pad.  The cupcake paper is from my stash.

Thanks so much for stopping by!  I hope to hear from you!  Have a great day.

Lots of Hugs,
