Splashes of Watercolor

Yeah!  It’s time for the very first Color Throwdown of 2010!!  Can you believe another year has come and gone?? We’re also celebrating because we have a brand new CTD designer!!  She’s so cool and so talented and I bet you already know her….Kristin Bueter!!  And for her initiation, we’ve asked her to start the […]

I wanted to play along with the technique challenge at Splitcoaststampers this week.  I’ve never tried the Van Gogh technique before, but it sure was fun and I can’t wait to experiment some more! I chose Fairy Dust is a Must from Our Craft Lounge to work with and decided to try it on kraft […]

So did you shop the day after Christmas?  I only went to a local pharmacy to stock up on Christmas wrapping paper and a few other things for next year.  It was close and I didn’t have to fight the crowds!  Just the way I like to shop! I’ve got a card to show you […]

Hi, everyone!  I have another Our Craft Lounge Christmas card to show you today.  Funny, because I had already started on this card using the Cosmo Cricket Jolly by Golly paper, when I received the Zva package that I showed in THIS post.  So what a coincidence that I used a very similar mix of […]

This week for the Color Throwdown, Danielle chose some yummy colors just perfect for another Christmas card!   Here they are: ~ This presented such a wonderful opportunity to use this adorable Tilda with Wreath from Magnolia-licious.  Well, that coupled with the fact that they’re sponsoring the challenge this week!! ~ ~ I just adore her […]

I’ve missed the last couple of weeks of playing in the JUGS girls challenges so I made it a point to get a card done for this week’s JUGS8 color challenge.  What a fun combination of bashful blue, pumpkin pie and really rust!  I also used the C4C12 sketch for this week too!  Here’s my […]

  I just love fairy tales!  So I was thrilled when I found out I would get to use Fairy Dust is a Must for the Our Craft Lounge blog hop.  These little darlings are so cute, aren’t they?! ~ ~ I went for a rustic, woodsy feel for my card today.  But I can’t […]
