Celebrate ...

Hello all and welcome to The Beary Scrap Challenge Blog!  Today I am sharing another fun card with our current sketch challenge and the Design Team was additionally asked to use embossing on our inspiration cards the week ... I love to emboss paper!!

These fun 6" x 6" papers are from My Mind's Eye - Fine and Dandy Collection.  They are so bright and cheery ... they just make me 'happy'!!!  I used a couple of Kaisercraft pink rhinestones on the sentiment tag to add a bit of bling and sparkle!

The delicious turquoise paper flower is from Prima - Trellis Roses Fontaine.

You have until May 14th to give this fun sketch a try ... I cannot wait to see what you'll create :)

Thanks for peeking in today -- have a wonderful stampy day!

Hugs,

Debbie

Vintage Style ...

Hello all and welcome to my project for this week here at The Beary Scrap Challenge Blog.  We're working with a sketch this week and next and you can find all the details on #25 HERE!

I love this sketch ... so many pretty layers and lots of opportunity to add bits and bobs of lovely treasures!  My papers are all from the Prima Annalee 6" x 6" paper pack - {swoon}!  I began with a tag that I stamped a button card image on and then decorated it with real buttons and Prima Mini Roses - Coral Fushia Pink ... sweet!

I added some tea-stained twill tape, Cameo Beige Shabby Vintage Seam Binding, a couple of sewing pins, a painted dress form chipboard piece and a beautiful Prima Trellis Rose Fontaine flower!  A few bits of vintage lace I picked up at an antique show last weekend, some baker's twine and a rusty jingle bell finish off this handmade from the heart treasure!

I hope you can give this fun sketch a try ... you have until May 14th!  Until next Thursday, thanks for peeking in today and have a wonderful stampy day!!

Hugs, Debbie
