Hey, everyone!

I really love the challenges over at Paper Wings. I do not get to participate as often as I would like but I always enjoy seeing what the Angels come up with. There are different challenges at the Motivation Station and one of them uses various color combos. Laurie posted this week's color combo challenge and I knew right away what stamp set I wanted to use...my new Sweet Skunks! This is such a fun stamp set! Here's the color combo:

Kraft

Black

Green

White

I cut my kraft cardstock to 5½" x 8½" and scored at 4¼". Using my white gel pen, I created faux stitching on my green Willoughby cardstock from TAC. I created some score marks with my Scor-Pal around the green cardstock to frame in the image. The flowers and skunk's eyes and nose were colored in with my Stardust Glitter Gel Pens and my Clear Gel Pen. To finish it off I put a bow in the top left hand corner.

The bee stamp is also in the Sweet Skunks stamp set. I have been decorating the insides of my cards just a little. It's sort of a fun surprise to open it up and see some stamping there, too! I colored the "trail" and wings in with my clear gel pen and the bumble bee is colored in with my yellow Stardust Glitter Gel Pen. Can you tell I love these pens? LOL

Thanks for checking my card out. I will be back with the scripture challenge next!

Hugs,

Open House Make and Takes!

Hey, everyone!

I had my New Catalog Reveal Open House. It was a lot of fun and I appreciate those of you who let me know if you could or could not make it. I have several prizes to give away and I will be posting the winner's names, as well as contacting each winner, tomorrow!!!! Don't miss it!!!

I wanted to share the two make 'n' take projects we created! The first card was inspired by several different cards and I mixed them up to get this effect. The background score lines were made using the Scor-Pal, which is a tool I absolutely LOVE! The images are from the Sprigs stamp set in The Angel Company annual catalog. The sentiment is in the Dear Friend stamp set from Serendipity. I used my clear glitter pen and Stardust Glitter Gel Pen for this card.

The second card is a gift card holder. I love making these!! The stamp set is also in our annual catalog and is called Sweet Skunks. I just love these cute skunks. I used my stardust and clear glitter gel pens on this card as well. It's so much fun!!! The glitter gel pens are all from TAC's new catalog! Leave a comment or e-mail me and I'll let you know how to get your own copy if you don't already have one!!

I will be turning my order in on Tuesday so if you wanted to place an order and haven't already done so, please call or e-mail me today! I want to thank all of my wonderful customers who have chosen to spend their craft dollars with me! I love being your Angel!

Hugs,
