Hi everyone, 

It's challenge time with my friends over on the CCEE Stampers challenge blog. As I am the challenge hostess for the month I continue to issue the challenges.

Apparent tomorrow (15th January) is Hat Day. So for our challenge this week we have to include a hat on our card creations.

I have a few new stamp sets that I got either before Christmas or for Christmas presents which I want to start using so when I went looking through my stash I found this cutie from Stamping Bella. That cute cat is wearing a hat and I always need birthday cards!

I decided to create a Side Step card using the Tattered Lace Side Stepper Card die I got earlier last year.

For the inside I stamped a sentiment and there is plenty of room to handwrite a greeting if I want to.

Don't forget to check out the CCEE Stampers blog (goes live 12 AM EST) to see the rest of the creations the CCEE Stampers created this week. You can also see more details of their creations on their individual blogs:

3 Today!

Hi everyone,

It's time for another CHF challenge over on the Cornish Heritage Farms Blog. This week the challenge is hosted by Amber.

For our challenge this week, Amber tells us that it is Kindergarten Day so make a card for a little kid.

For my card this week I have used Cornish Heritage Farms' Bear in the Moon Digital Stamp and also  Birthday Greetings stamp set.

To create my card I have used the Side Stepper die from Tattered Lace to create a Side Step card. I love that this time comes not only with the die to cut the base card, but also all the small dies to decorate it. This die set makes a large card as it is 20cm wide which is just under 8 inches for those of you in the US.

As you can see I got a little carried away and decorated the inside of my card with the layering dies ... not sure whether I would bother doing all of them again LOL. The sentiment used here is also from the Cornish Heritage Farms' Birthday Greetings stamp set.

Want to play along?????

If you would like to play along with us of course we would love to have you!

To play create a card using CHF images. You can use either CHF digi or rubber stamps to create a card or project ... anything you like as long as the stamps are Cornish Heritage Farms. (Yes, they can be older stamps.)

Once you have created your card/project come back here and place a comment with a link to your card/project to the CHF blog post so that we can see what you created. If you upload your card/project to SCS don't forget to included the keyword CHF77. We can't wait to see what you create!

He’s Making a List ….

Hi everyone,

He’s making a list and checking it twice … he’s going to find out whose naughty and nice.

Oops I got side tracked singing … lucky this blog doesn’t have sound LOL!!!!!

For my card today I used the Stampin’ Up “Santa’s List” stamp set to create a side step card. It has been a while since I have made one of these. I decorated my card using the Memory Box Frostyville Border.

 

Here is another look at my card from the front.

On the inside of my card .. I added a panel so I could add a sentiment which is from Stampin’ Ups “Tags Til Christmas” stamp set.

Hi everyone!
It is day 5 of our Riley sneak peeks in readiness of the of the new Riley stamps that will be available from Riley and Company this coming Thursday 24th May. This time round we have 14 new Riley’s being released.

For my card today I CASED a card I made a few years ago turning a side step card into a castle. A King and his Princess need a castle right! The Bricks on the castle was created using Riley and Company’s Brick Wall stamp and my stamp positioner. I love how this stamp is easy to match together.

Here is another view of my side step card, I added grass to the front part of the castle.

Welcome Little One!

Hi everyone,

My card today is a project that I made at a stamp club that I attend each month. This time round our project was given to us by my friend Tracy who showed us how to create this in baby dresser card.

My original card I made had a punched bear on it, but when I came home and looked for something to stamp onto the tiny onesie I discovered a cute bear and giraffe stamp which I had to use on my card.

Here is another view of my baby dresser … I had a lot of fun creating this and I am sure I will make more in the future.

Stamps: Sentiment – SU; Bear & Moon – Hero Arts; Giraffe – Fiskars
