Spring Has Sprung

   Happy Wednesday!  I hope you had a fantastic weekend.  My family and I went to Lake Placid NY for my sons hockey tournament and we had a FANTASTIC time, and to top it off, they took the silver medal.  It was such a great time, and we created memories of a lifetime.
   Today, I am sharing a card I made for this weeks Stampotique Originals Designers Challenge. This weeks Hostess is Nellie, and here is what she had to say: " So close to Easter I would love to see you use birds and stuff related to birds such as feathers, eggs, nests etc. in your artwork".  I decided to use Birdie Shoes by Kira Nicholas, to create my card for this weeks challenge.  Hopefully I captured some spring spirit.  
   Have a great week, and join us for a chance to win free product.

   Happy Tuesday!!! It sure has been a long time since I have posted in the Going Grey Challenge...To be honest, my plate has been pretty full lately, and honestly, I was contemplating ending the challenge, but after much thought with my DT and myself, I have decided to continue the challenge on a monthly basis.  Going Grey With Scrap-Creations will now be held on the 3rd Tuesday of the month.  The challenges will be simple but FUN (as always)...I also wanted to share big news....We have added a new DT member to the team...A big welcome to Michelle Quinno. We are thrilled to have you on the team!

It's Hip to Be Square!

   Happy Wednesday!  It has been some time since I have posted last.  Life has been beyond crazy, but I am back and that is all that matters.
   At Scrap-Creations, Wednesdays = Stampotique Originals Designers Challenge.  This weeks hostess is Corrie and here is what Corrie says about this challenge:
 
"I am very fond of circles in my work, so I want to get outside my comfort zone and use squares for a change and I would like you to join me. Have Fun!!"

   For this challenge, I used my squares as a sitting post for skunk w/ word on side.  This is a super fun challenge and I hope you will join us for a chance to win $30.00 worth of free stamps. 

  Also, Stampotique has a new release coming out in March and we are showing sneak peaks on the Stampotique Designers Facebook page.  Hop on over and check them out!

Love is in The Air!

    Happy Wednesday! I hope you having a wonderful week this far. Do you know what Sunday is??? Valentines Day and I am a sucker for the seasonal items.  I love to walk in Target (my fav) and check out the season section.  I can't help but love all the red and pink right now! 
   This weeks Stampotique Originals Designer Challenge hostess is  Coby vanWilligenburg and her challenge is: "Love Is In The Air" here is what Coby says about this challenge:

"Love is so sweet and so tender...love is more than a boy than a boy and a girl.....love are my children, my grandchildren and animals... show in your creation this week, Love"

There you have it, it's all about Love this week.

 

Of course, I LOVE this challenge.  I made a simple card today, using Waving Spotted Monster by Kira Nichols.  I know you can't really see from the pic, but there is depth between the heart and the base.  This was a super fun challenge and I sure do hope you will join us in this weeks a challenge.  Not only is it fun, but there is also a chance for $30.00 in free product!.  Have a great week....

It Takes Two!

   Happy Wednesday!  Here at Scrap-Creations Wednesdays = Stampotique Designers challenge and this weeks challenge is "double the fun."  This weeks Hostess is Valerie and here is what Valerie has to say about this weeks challenge:
 "Nope, that's not a typo! This week we are celebrating the 2nd anniversary of the Stampotique monthly swap. This week, let's feature two's. You can interpret this any way you want. Duos, mirrors, the number two, duplicates - whatever comes to mind."

   One of my favorite things about joining challenges, is coming up with the creative idea.  When preparing for this weeks challenge, I was sifting through my stamps deciding what I would use, when I spotted the "Skunk with Word on the side" stamp by Kira Nichols.  I knew I wanted to use a play on words for this challenge, note the "too" on my card, and I LOVE the stamp, so i went with it, and this is what I came up with for this weeks challenge.  
    Thank you Valerie for a super fun challenge, and I sure do hope you will join us for this weeks challenge over at Stampotique Originals for some super fun!  Have a great day and thank you for stopping by.
