Repeat Impressions Designer's Choice Challenge

This week Geri, one of the Rock Stars from Repeat Impressions challenged the rest of us to make a card with spring flowers - in East Texas spring is in full bloom! Dogwood, azaleas, daffodils and tulips are popping up all over!

So to celebrate I used the Repeat Impressions image called Daffodils.  It is a gorgeous stamp with lots of possibilities of coloring or paper piecing.  This is also the card I sent to Wendy, owner of Repeat Impression as a birthday card.   HAPPY BIRTHDAY, WENDY!   Here it is:

Here is the list of Rock Star Designers who made projects to inspire you.

Stamp TV Blog Hop with GLITTER

Carolina, hop coordinator with Stamp TV challenged us to make a CAS card using only glitter as our embellishment --- and believe me - that is a challenge for me, because I love ribbon, buttons and flowers - so this took a little thinking for me.  If you have come from Geri's blog then you are at the right spot.  Didn't she have the sweetest card!   You might like to start at the beginning which is right here.

Make sure to leave a comment as you go along because we will choose a random comment and that stamper will win a grab bag of Gina K. Designs products! Look for the announcement on Tuesday, April 2.

Here is my card.

I used the Scooter Diva and the card is going to my little sister who rides a red scooter - I know she will get a big kick out of it!  I also used Gina K's cloud technique found here.

Now pop along to Karen's  blog.  I know you will get a lot of inspiration from her.

Thanks for hopping with us tonight - have a HAPPY stamping day.

Sketch Day at Repeat Impressions

Today is Sketch Day at Repeat Impressions, Wendy, the owner drew this sketch for the Design Team to follow

and here is my card:

I used the image called Spring Blossoms.  Spring is coming here to East Texas and you can see it all around - dogwoods are blooming, azaleas are budding and the daffodils have been out so long that they are now all fading.

It would be great for you to do a project using the sketch and link it on Wendy's blog, The House That Stamps Built.  She will have a random drawing for a nice gift certificate from Repeat Impressions -- and the whole team would like to see what you could do -- you don't have to use Repeat Impressions stamps, but we would love for you to use them.

Here is a list of Rock Star Design Team members who have made projects to inspire you.  Take a look at theirs and then let us see yours --- thanks!

Repeat Impressions Challenge from Karen

Karen, one of the Repeat Impressions Design Team Rock Stars challenged us to make a card using a brayer or sponge technique.  New territory for me -- I decided to use a sponge for the background of the flower vine.  Here is my card:

I used Repeat Impressions'  Flowering Vine and Thinking of You sentiment.  Here is the list of Rock Star Designers - After taking a look at their projects, make a project and link it on Wendy's blog, The House That Stamps Built.  Wendy will award a randomly drawn name a very nice gift certificate.
