{ Creative Imaginations }

Design Team sponsor this month at Create My Keepsake is Creative Imaginations. I got to play with Samantha Walker Day by Day collection and Bare Elements wood blocks. I made a desk calendar. I used Sizzix 1.5" square die to cut all the squares and Mod Podge to adhere everything to the blocks. This was a fast project that required a little planning for the squares. I will be using this little calendar on my desk.
There is a Creative Imaginations contest going on that you can read about here.
We will be chatting live with Christine Adolph on September 6th at 8:00 p.m. CST in our chat room and you are invited to join us! For complete chat event details just click here.

{ SCS sketch challenge 139 }

Well, I have been cleaning my room for the past several days...and in the middle of it all I had to stamp. This paper set was still in the wrapper, yes, if you can believe that. I am using it for the first time. Sketch is from Splitcoaststampers SC139. All the stamps are from Impression-Obsession. Paper is Really Rust, Close to Cocoa, and Very Vanilla. I used my scalloped scissors I got at Michaels the other day. I just love these colors. I want to make another card tonight, but I just don't want to mess up my clean space.

{ Tweet Summertime }

That's the name of the stamp. It's one of the birdhouses I got from Impression-Obsession. I wanted it to look more like a fall card. I think I will be ordering more. They are so fun to color. I finally got to use my Prismacolor colored pencils. I got them several months ago at JoAnn for a great price. I think they were on sale or I got to use the coupon...something good. I didn't have a good sharpener until the other day. I love them.
I used Very Vanilla cardstock, DCWV patterned paper, Keller's Creations ribbon, Ranger ink around the edges.
