Cuttin & Stampin Challenge #37 use 3 punches

#37

Challenge: Use 3 punches

September 17 - 23rd, 2013

Hi all! back again with

my punchy take on this challenge!

I used these 3 punches:

and made this card:

I used some denim Bazzill paper for the card base

and the pocket. The flowers and pink accent

on the pocket are from my scraps. I used the

Borderlicious stamp set from Paper Smooches

on the upper and lower edges of the card.

I am super excited to play with
Bazzill Basic Paper collection and
Paper Smooches Stamps with our newest
challenge!

Speaking of newest challenge;
3 Punches grab what
you have and join us in some fun!

Hey, if you don’t have a lot of punches;
then grab some from the kids! LOL

I hope that you take time to check out the
stamps and the paper!

Challenge #36 Back to School

#36

Challenge: Back to School

September 10 - 16th, 2013

Hi all! I have a little

Back to School inspiration for you!

What is more back to school than a chalkboard?

I used black cardstock to make the chalkboard, but

it looked too clean... So I took a paper towel, put a

little white ink on it and rubbed it across the paper

to look like leftover chalk after the board has been

wiped clean. The pattern papers and the YOU ROCK!

sticker are from the Bazzill Basic School Days line.

The "Thanks Teacher" and globe stamp are from

the Paper Smooches Smarty Pants Stamp Set

All of this is the current weekly deal. I colored the

globe with my watercolor pencils.

Creative Cutting Challenge: Anything Goes

Time for another Creative Cutting Challenge!

The theme this time is Anything Goes! So

any project made with an SVG type cut file

(no cricut cuts)

I made this tag:

Someone sent me some plain tags in the mail, so I decided one would

work well with the cutting file I chose for this project...

I crumpled the tag, put some ink on my craft sheet,

I used Tim Holtz Distress inks in Black Ink and Peeled paint.

I ran my crumpled tag through the ink, then added a spritz of

water and ran it through again. I dried it with my heat gun, then ironed it to

get is somewhat flat again. I cut my shapes (Gear Frame from

The Creative Pointe available at www.cutandcreate.com and a

tag from the library built into the Make The Cut software)

The gold parts were a pale yellow green card stock, I added

Gold Gelato to them. The Silver part was gray, I added Silver Gelato.

The crinkle ribbon is some I ordered from 3 Girls Jam a

while back. The jute twine is from My Life in Arts n Crafts.

The writing on the tag is my own.

Thanks for stopping by!

Cuttin & Stampin Week 35 Banners

#35

Challenge: Banners

September 3 - 9th, 2013

Hi all Pam again! Back with a second

banner this week... This time I made a

card with a banner...

I used assorted papers from my stash, the shapes

were cut with my Cameo from patterns in the

Silhouette Online Store. I used pop dots to

lift the plane off the paper. I stacked 3 dots toward

the front of the plane so it looks like its flying

off the paper. I stacked 2 a little further back

on the plane and then used single dots toward the

back of the plane.

Thanks for playing along we will be announcing the winners on September 13, 2013.
