TPE Challenge #45 Winter & or Christmas


Hi Everyone,


Hope this finds you all doing well. Not too many more days left for Christmas Shopping.
My entry is simple (for me) this is one of my Christmas cards that will be going into the mail. This is the first time that I have worked with Acetate. Learned alot. First thing was that my stamp stuck to the Acetate. So when I removed the stamp it blured my image. But that was ok for this project, because it gave the image the look of going sooo fast that she was a blurrrr. But then when I started coloring in I lost that. And coloring was a trip. But I think that all in all it turned out.

Here are the details for my Entry: Stamp Image from http://www.therubbercafe.com/ K-1159 Winter Fun Labrador & Kitty (I revisied the dog's tail to make it look more like my little Savannah) also from the rubber cafe is the snow (flowersoft I think is what it's called) Melissa can help you out with questions & the Acetate I got from the rubber cafe,notecards by amuse http://www.amuseartstamps.com/ Sky Blue Band, Copic markers, Background trees are also from amuse art stamps as is the Merry Christmas stamp.,ribbon & stars misc. items I had. Almost forgot the stickles in Star Dust.

Thank You for considering my entry.

Sweet Sketch Wednesday #27


Hi Everyone,
Hope this finds all doing well & staying warm. I don't understand somedays I can get a good picture then others it just doen't happen no matter how many times I take them.  This is one of those not so good days.  I hope you can make this out.
This entry has a bit of a twist to it changeable tags. Take a look.
We have a knitter in the family so I thought that this would be a good card for her.  Since the only thing that says Christmas in this card is the Merry Christmas tag.  So I wanted her to be able to keep her card out so I came up with this.
My Entry: Stamping Bella image & Copic markers the rest are scraps that I could use.
Happy Holidays to Everyone & Thank You for considering my entry.

Quixotic Challenge #5 Charming


Hi Everyone,
This is my first entry for Quixotic.  As some of you know I have been in San Diego, Ca. visiting my husband while he was there working.  Well, I of course had to make him a Christmas card before he went back to Okinawa.  It doesn't look like we will be spending Christmas or New Years together.  So this is what I was doing the night before I left to come back home.  This is my husbands plane.  He had to help me with the colors to use since I could not figure out what some of the parts of the plane were.
I used the Herky Bird digi from Sunshine Stamps, Copic markers,  Since most branches of the military have the KC-130 I did this one in the Marine Corps color.Ribbon Charm from Memories Maker,misc. ribbon & card stock.  At Christmas they paint one of the plane's nose red and someone dress as Santa and they taxi out for the kids.  Year before last I think it was my husband (Nick go figure)was Santa.
Well, that is about it.  I would like to Thank you for considering my entry.
Thank You,
BJ
