Hello friends!  Today Repeat Impressions challenge is called Anything Goes -- and anything goes!  Here is my card.  I so desperately need some masculine cards so for the next few weeks I'll be going for a manly look for my cards.
This one uses the image called Compass and the Happy Birthday sentiment and the squares are made using Repeat Impressions Flip Die Set and Flip Fancy Die Set

Let your imagination run wild!!   We look forward to seeing what you will do with the challenge.  You don't have to use Repeat Impression stamps but if you do, your name will be entered twice (2x) for a random drawing for a really nice gift certificate from Repeat Impressions.  Check out Wendy's blog, The House That Stamps Built for the complete guidelines and link your project there.

Repeat Impressions Weekly Challenge

Good Morning!  Love is in the air!  Can you feel it?  Wendy, owner of Repeat Impressions has a tic tac toe challenge for us.  Here it is:
I decided to do Water colors, Pink and Hearts.  Here is my card:
I used a piece of water color paper that used a saran wrap technique. The large heart called Ruffled Border Heart was the perfect size for the center of the card.  The heart was fussy cut,  popped up with some foam tape and the letters were die cut.

Your project needs to follow the tic tac toe shown above.   Let your imagination run wild!!   We look forward to seeing what you will do with the challenge.  You don't have to use Repeat Impression stamps but if you do, your name will be entered twice (2x) for a random drawing for a really nice gift certificate from Repeat Impressions.  Check out Wendy's blog, The House That Stamps Built for the complete guidelines and link your project there.

Project of the Week for Repeat Impressions

Hi, today it's my turn to do Project of the week for Repeat Impressions- a few week's ago I made a phone cover for the weekly challenge and I've had several people ask how I did it.  Today I'll show you the easy-peazy way.  

I bought a clear blank phone case.  They are called called a "jelly" or clear case.  This one came from the Dollar Store and cost $1.19.  Amazon also has them for $5.00 to $6.00.




I stamped the images of the flower and leaf from the Flower Power Separates on a piece of card stock with a little masking I filled the piece of card stock with the images.  They were colored with copics and covered with Wink of Stella (unfortunately you can't see the pretty sparkle). 

The next case I made used the Hummingbird image and Dreams Take Flight...  






The clear phone case is packed with a styrofoam piece and I used this to traced on the back side of my colored card stock(or you could use your phone to trace), cut it out and used a corner rounder on each corner.   


  I traced around the camera hole and carefully cut out.


  The piece of card stock was inserted into the plastic cover and then put on my phone.  Thanks for looking at my project.  I hope you have as much fun as I did making these cases.

Repeat Impressions - Anything but a card Challenge

WOAH!! What a great challenge Wendy, owner of Repeat Impressions has for us today!  This is anything but a card - I loved this because I had an idea of something I wanted to do and this was a perfect venue for that.  My project is a Custom Phone case.
I wanted it to look like those new "Adult Coloring Pages".  So what do you think?  Does it look like one of those pages?  I will be doing a Project of the Week soon on how to do this.


Your project needs to be anything but a card - let your imagination run wild!!   We look forward to seeing what you will do with the challenge.  You don't have to use Repeat Impression stamps but if you do, your name will be entered twice (2x) for a random drawing for a really nice gift certificate from Repeat Impressions.  Check out Wendy's blog, The House That Stamps Built for the complete guidelines and link your project there.
