Repeat Impression Designer's Choice Challenge

Today Joyce, one of the Design Team members at Repeat Impressions challenged us to make a project using bright and/or vibrant colors.  So here is how I met her challenge:
I looked thru my papers and found the brightest colors I could find.  I used the stamps called "Be My Valentine!" and "Cherub Flourish" -- which I LOVE!

Now, we want to see what you would do with Joyce's challenge.  Make a card using bright and/or vibrant colors and link it on Wendy's blog, The House That Stamps Built and you could be the randomly drawn winner of a great gift certificate.

Thanks for looking at my card and have a HAPPY stamping day.

Creative Belli Challenge - Rhinestones

Don't you just love Rhinestones!! Today Darsie, owner of the Creative Belli Challenge asked us to make a project using Rhinestones.  Here is my card:
I used an "irock gimme glam rhinestone setter".  I was given this at CHA (Craft and Hobby Show) a few week ago by one of their sweet demonstrators.  It is so easy to use and comes with a large supply of different sizes of rhinestones.  I used it to set the rhinestones on the netting under the button on the bow and to set the rhinestones on my sentiment tag.  Here is a You Tube video about it.

Here are the members of the Creative Belli Team who have made projects to inspire you.  We would like to see what you would do with the challenge.  Just go to Darsie's blog, Creative Belli Challenge and link your card.
Thanks for looking at my card, have a HAPPY stamping day.

Good morning!  Ready for a challenge from Repeat Impressions?  It my turn to offer up the challenge -- and I challenge everyone to make a card using something with snow.  We hardly ever get snow -- and we haven't yet this year -- so we make do with just making cards and scrapbook layouts with snow.  Here is my card:
I just love Repeat Impressions Snowflake stamps.  There are some large ones and some small ones.  I cut out the snowflakes and layered them after stamping and embossing them with white EP.  The sentiment is Take Time to Chill Out.  It is actually a stamp from the Summer Series, but it sure goes well with snowflakes!
