Warm Wishes - Poinsettia Petals The Spot Challenge #134
Hello and welcome to my blog; today I am going to share with you my card for this week's challenge over at The Spot. This week's challenge is a very fun card sketch. I picked the Poinsettia Petals Stamp set from the August - December Mini Catalog along with the Poinsettia Place Designer Series Paper to create my card with today.
I wanted to do something fun and festive with the sketch for this week's challenge, but wasn't quite sure what I wanted to use until I sat down and actually was reorganizing my designer series paper and putting the scraps into sleeves. I as was doing this I was actually on this pack of designer series paper and it hit me that the scraps on my table was perfect. Isn't it funny how things just fall into place sometimes. Here's a look at the card that I created for this week's challenge.

The Spot Creative Challenge #131 - CASE the Designer Challenge
Hello and welcome to my blog; today I am going to share with you my card for this week's Creative Challenge over at the Spot. This weeks challenge is a CASE the Designer Challenge and we are CASEing the work of Sara Levin the Artful Inker. To play along with this challenge you just have to pick one of her projects and CASE it. Case means to copy and share everything or Copy and selectively edit. I picked a beautiful Fall themed card that Sara had design to CASE today. I will share the card that was my inspiration and the challenge image just a little later in this post. But first here is the card that I cam up with.
Below you will find the inspiration that I picked for my card today as well as this week's challenge image. You can click on the challenge image to play along with us this week. I also linked to Sara's blog post for the card that I picked to CASE.
Sara created this beautiful card using the Forever Fern Stamp Set and some wonderful Fall colors as well as a few other Fall themed product from both the Stampin' Up! Annual Catalog and the August-December Mini Catalog. On my version of Sara's lovely Fall card I used the Love of Leaves Stamp Set as my background images in the same colors that she used. I used Crushed Curry, Cajun Craze, Pumpkin Pie, Pretty Peacock, Mint Macaron, Crumb Cake, and Mossy Meadow inks the same way that Sara did.
I matted the card front onto a Pretty Peacock mat cut at 4 1/8" x 5 3/8" to my Crumb Cake card base.. I then heat embossed my hello sentiment in Gold Stampin' Emboss Powder onto a strip of Pretty Peacock Cardstock the same as Sara. I also added the Metallic Ribbon from the Basket Weave and Metallic Ribbon Combo Pack under the heat embossed sentiment. I hope that you will play along with us this week over at the Spot. I love Sara's card and I think you will have fun CASEing her this week as well.

Happy Stampin'

Poinsettia Petals Tall Box - The Spot Challenge #126 Anything But a Card
Hello and welcome to my blog; today I am going to be sharing with you my project for this week's creative challenge over at The Spot. This week we are doing a fun little creative challenge and the theme is Anything But a Card. So I created a fun Christmas themed project for you today. I used the products from the Poinsettia Place Suite to create my project. Here's a look at what I came up with.
Once I had the Poinsettia flower put together I added one of the Beaded Pearls to the center of the flower. I then added it to the front of the box with Stampin' Dimensionals. I then stamped the sentiment in Old Olive Ink onto a piece of Whisper White Cardstock and punched it out with the Everyday Label Punch.
Here's the inspiration for this week's challenge.
Project Recipe:
I have a little graphic for you so that you can pin to your Pinterest Board to remind you what I used to create today's project in case you wanted to recreate it. You can find all my project recipes by clicking here.
