TSC Cards



I gave the challenge this week for the TSC0203 - to make a card using a combination of black and _____ (whatever color you like), plus make your card a circle or use a circle on the card.  See the top card - sadly - it's wrong.  I can't believe I messed up on my own challenge - that's what I get for rushing.  The bottom card is its replacement.  Geez, as the Scarecrow said on the road to Oz - "If I only had a brain!"  Ditto that Scarecrow - I know how you feel!

Card Recipe: (Black/White card)

Stamp:  Brick Wall by Mark's Finest Papers, a Heinrich Co.
Paper:  Basic Grey Little Black Dress; MFP 140 lb. white
Ink:  Memento Tuxedo Black
Accessories:  Nesties circle dies and scalloped circle dies

CCEE1205 - Snowmen


The challenge is given this week by my sweet friend, Shirley Quarry, and she has decided we should make a card with a snowman and add some scallops.  I had some shiny silver/white snowman DP and used that - cut a couple of the snowmen out and popped them up.  Then I used mirror silver and mirror gold CS and made the scallops on the bottom - it's pretty in person - but loses some of its pizazz in the picture.

Card Recipe:

Paper:  American Crafts - Memories DP; Silver and Gold Mirror CS
Accessories:  SU scallop punch

Be sure and go over to the CCEE challenge blog and check out my teamies' awesome cards.  If you have a snowman stamp you love, make a card and enter the challenge, as we would love to see your cards!

Thanks for stopping by and later gator!
