SAME BUT DIFFERENT

Good afternoon and happy Thursday everyone!  Yes, my cards for today are same but different! LOL!! Same lay-out used but different when it comes to the elements (colours, materials, etc.) used.  These cards are part of my orders and the lay-out was based on a card which was ordered from me last year, by the same person who is my churchmate/friend, Bing. :)  

I happily obliged to grant her request provided that only the lay-out will be retained because I don't feel comfortable creating two identical cards! Identical in every aspect, that is. I don't know about you, but for me, it's my principle. LOL! 

 Anyway, here are the cards:


 Materials used:

Stamps: Jemac Stamps
Paper: white cs, DCWV dp, mint green cs
Ink: Memento Tuxedo Black
Accessories: Cuttlebug Victoria embossing folder, Spellbinders Labels One and Four, McGill branch punch, flower, paper rose, Kaiser pearls



Materials used:

Stamps: Jemac Stamps
Paper: white cs, Perfect Plum, Basic Grey Koshi dp
Ink: Memento Dew Drop Sweet Plum
Accessories: Craft Concept Cottage Floral embossing folder, Spellbinders Labels One and Big Scalloped Ovals Lg, McGill branch punch, Green Tara flower, paper rose, Kaiser pearls


These cards along with another one (which I will be posting soon) are my entries for the Hope You Can Cling To Challenge (HYCCT1125) over SCS.  I'm also entering these cards to Joan's World Cardmaking Day Blog Candy!


Thanks for looking and have a blessed day!

PSALM 28:7



Hi everyone! It's my first time to join the Hope You Can Cling To challenge on SCS and it's so overwhelming to see lots of participants and stampers doing this as a support to cancer survivors.

My card is a small square and I used the papers that are leftovers from a card that I created last night. The colour is more of "plum" but I guess it's also part of purple family. (if I'm not mistaken) LOL!

The bible verse is from Unity Stamps and stamped with Versafine Onyx black onto white cs then die-cut with Spellbinders Labels Four. I also did some sponging around it using Memento Sweet Plum. Flowers are from my stash and I used Basic Grey Pearl (black) for its center. The SU! Perfect Plum cs was embossed with Cuttlebug Divine Swirl embossing folder and the strip of dp is from Basic Grey Koshi pad. This is another entry for my cousin's WMCD blog candy. This is card #2, Joan! :)

Here's a close-up of the verse:



Thanks for looking and have a blessed Wednesday!

BIRTHDAY CUPCAKE!


Hello everyone! This is my take for this week's CAS challenge (CAS140) at SCS -- cupcakes!! In my case, it's just a cupcake with a lady sitting on it. LOL!

This is my 2nd time to ink this image (given to me by my cousin who's also into stamping). I stamped it using Memento Tuxedo Black, coloured with Copics, die-cut with Large Deckled Rectanges (Spellbinders) then sponged around the image with Versamagic Sahara Sand using my big dauber. I stamped my sentiment from Hero Arts on the bottom left of the image panel, adhered onto the embossed card base using Cuttlebug Swiss Dots folder then finished it off with a grosgrain ribbon, a button with twine and some Crystal Stickles to adorn the cupcake. YUM!



I'm also submitting this to my cousin Joan's WORLD CARDMAKING DAY Blog Candy!

Thanks for looking and have a blessed day!

WEDDING ANNIVERSARY


Happy Saturday everyone! Now I can finally upload the card that I made for our church pastor's 43rd wedding anniversary last Monday.

The card's lay-out was based on SC351. Great sketch and I'll probably use this for a couple of times on my future cards. The background panel was embossed using Cuttlebug Floral Fantasy embossing folder. I actually inked one side of the folder before running it through my Cuttlebug machine to give the background a very light "teal" colour. I then matted it onto a teal cs, stamped the sentiment and cut with Spellbinders double-ended tags die and sponged around it with the same ink I used with the embossing folder.  I then used a teal satin ribbon that I bought from Alice in Paperland when I visited their shop few weeks ago and finished off with 3 Kaiser pearls on the bottom right. Oh, I actually sprayed Glimmer Mist Pearl on the embossed panels but the camera didn't capture its sparkle. It looks good IRL. :)

Thanks so much for looking and for always visiting my blog.

Until next post. God bless everyone!

CAROLERS


I like paper piecing! And one of my stamps that I always like to do this technique with is my Carolers by Clearly Wordsworth.

CAS as it is, I stamped and coloured the image (the male carolers) directly to the card base and paper-pieced the ladies. Cut a two different size strips, stamped the sentiment (from the same set) and did some scoring using my Scor-Pal.

Thanks for looking and have a blessed THURSday! :)

CC341 FRIEND


Good afternoon fellow bloggers and stampers!

Here's my simple take for today's CC341 color combination challenge: Tempting Turquoise, Pumpkin Pie and Old Olive. Such a wonderful colour combo!

I used a tree from a stamp set called We Are Family by Heidi Grace (as the challenge requires leaves) and so I coloured the leaves randomly with my Pumpkin Pie and Old Olive markers. The sentiment is from CC Designs. The Heidi Grace stamp set was actually one of the stamps that I won from my cousin Joan's blog candy a year ago and I was only able to ink it now.

Thanks for looking and for visiting my blog.

Mostly Blue Scripture (F4A82, SSIC107)


Happy Tuesday everyone! Finally, I got to sit and stamp yesterday in the midst of my household chores! Thank God for the energy and for the creativity that flowed in my mind yesterday. :) I'm so happy that after awhile, I was able to play with the challenges that I used to join before.


This card is for the "Mostly Blue Challenge (F4A82)" over SCS and also for the Stampin' Sisters in Christ Challenge#107 wherein you have to use wings and a biblical verse/scripture or quote.  


I stamped the scripture then die cut it with Nestabilities. And while still on the die, I sponged around it using a baby blue decorative chalk, then stamped the head of the flowers randomly for a background. The butterfly was stamped on the same dp that I used and was cut by a pair of scissors; adhered in a way that it will look like it's gonna fly anytime. :)


This one goes out to a friend , sort of an encouragement to look at the wonderful, beautiful and amazing things God has created whenever she gets disheartened or when she feels things aren't looking so well.  I hope she will not get a hint that this is for her when she gets to read this. *wink*  


Have a blessed day everyone!
