Mojo Monday Sketch Challenge #112

What a fun sketch for this week's Mojo Monday sketch challenge. I used my new CB embossing borders to emboss the tall image panels--then I embossed it at again on white and punched out just the cabin and layered it. Stamped snowflakes (Serene Snowflakes from Stampin Up) create the wintery background. My sentiment is a retired one from Stampin Up and it is stamped in Night of Navy. The sketch for this week was given in as a horizontal card but I filled it and made it a vertical card.

Here is the sketch.......Let me know what you think.....and if you have time come play along!!

Our Creative Corner Sketch Challenge

Here is my card for this week's sketch challenge over at Our Creative Corner:

I used Old Olive, Ruby Red, Choc. Chip and Very Vanilla--all from Stampin Up. My stamp set is also from Stampin Up--even though it has been retired for awhile I just can't quite using it, especially at Christmas time!! My tab was punched out and fastened in place with a brad--I also added the word winter to it as well. The main image panel is attached using 3D glue dots so that the card has some depth. The background was embossed and then just a bit of ribbon was added to finish it off. Here is the sketch--come play along!!

2010 here we come.....

This is what happens when you can't sleep!! I got up out of bed this AM at 3:45--just could not go back to sleep, and the fact that my darling husband was sleeping so peacefully was not helping!! So out to my stamping area to at least be productive!! I used the 3 x 3 calendar squares that are in the Holiday mini catalog from Stampin Up!! It was so much fun creating this cute little wall calendar. I cut them down to 2 inches and added a strip across the bottom after mounting them on a tag that I punched out of Soft Suede cardstock. Each month sports a coordinating stamp set and embellishments. I just think it turned out so very cute!! So if you need a gift idea here you go!! If you don't have a Stampin Up demonstrator and you would like to order these cute little calendar pages just email me at deb@cabincreekwood.com.

2sketch4you sketch challeng

Here is my card for today's ways to use it challenge over at SCS--today we were to use purple!!

I dyed my flowers with Elegant Eggplant and sprayed them with Frost Shimmers Paint mixed with alcohol. (this is a great way to add alittle shimmer to anything--paper, flowers, ribbon, etc. All you need to do is add 1/8 of a teaspoon to 1/2 oz of alcohol and mix together in a mini spray bottle) The stamp is from a retired Stampin up set called A is for Adorable. The background was embossed using a texture plate from Stampin up.

I also used this week's sketch from 2Sketch4you. You can play along too--just check out their blog.
