Masked Stripes

That is the Challenge today at Speedy Fox and Friends. You can find the tutorial Here.

I did mine diagonal with two colors for a simple background. It was stitched

onto the purple base and then

The gears cut from a Memory Box.die were added along with a few sparkly jewels.

The sentiment is from the Sunflower Set and cut with a Spellbinder

Scalloped Oval. The butterfly is from a friend cut with a SU punch.

The Stripes can be used in such a variety of ways you are sure to be delighted with

all the different ones my teammates have used.

We would love to have you stop by and join our Challenge this week!!

New Saturday Challenge

Good Morning my friends! Today at Speedy Fox and Friends we are challenging you to use Kraft paper and White Embossing Powder!  I have used the Hydrangea from the same Set. After embossing it I cut it out as you can see. The white mat was cut with the Spellbinder  Fancy Squares Die and the Hydrangea foam dotted on. I have doodled around it with a brown pen.The

Speedy Fox and Friends invite

you to join in our Challenge this week. Use only the corners, how simple is that!! 

I have used the Pansy image from the Happy Thoughts set. The background was embossed

 with a Stampin Up embossing folder then different inks added. The corner Die is a Memory Box.

Be sure to stop by and join us this week.

Happy Tuesday to you all!!

Its that time again! A new Challenge at Tuesday Throwdown and team B's turn. 

Our Challenge is to Frame It and our sponsor is A Day for Daisys. They have lots 

of awesome images and have given us each one to work with. I love my beautiful

 image called Poppy In My Hair.After coloring my image I cut her out with a

 Spellbinder die. I used another Spellbinder to make a frame for her. 

The background was made with some paste and a Heidi Swapp  butterfly stencil. 

After letting the stencil dry I added several different inks . Although it doesnt 

show much of the background is the same green as the base of the card. 

A little stitching to attach it all. The Birthday sentiment was cut with a

Spellbinder Scalloped circle and foam dotted on. My talented teamies 

have lots of great Creations to inspire you. Stop by and join the fun

 and you may be the winner of some of the lovely A Day for Daisys images!!

Speedy Fox and Friends Challenge

Today at Speedy Fox and Friends we are

 Challenging you to make Die Cut Designs on your card or LO. 

 I make several different ones and just wasn't happy with them so finally decided

 on the stars. The stars were cut with the different sizes of Spellbinder Dies. I interlocked

 them, overlapped them and nothing seemed right so did the boring thing and just set them 

inside one another! A little ink added to give them a more worn look. The side border

die is also an overlapped  Spellbinder border die. A little stitching and the sentiment 

added to finish it up. My teammates have some very pretty and creative uses for 

the dies so check out the blog.
