{ 2 Sketches 4 You - Kazan's sketch 13 and Hero Arts challenge }

I was able to finish this card last night for 2 Sketches 4 you. The adorable house stamp is Maya Road and the tree stamp is Autumn Leaves. I added red glitter glue to some of the hearts. The background, tree, paper is by Chatterbox that I found at Michaels's, Making Memories patterned paper on the house and the hill, Basic Grey paper for the tree and Fancy Pants journaling card. Here is a card I created for Hero Arts blog technique challenge, distressing and clear resist. I clear embossed the leaves on my tag and than applied ink over the top. In addition I used white embossing powder for the trees. The flower my mom made, if you remember from this post here. Making Memories patterned paper and Tim Holtz tag.

This month I got to work with Fairest Of Them All from Imaginisce at Embellish-Online.com. You have to check out the gallery for all the other creations. This is such a cute, girly collection. I especially love the little stamps. They are only $1.00. I altered a rectangular hinged tin and I created a mini album to fit inside. For the inside pages, I stamped the images with VersaMark and heat embossed using glitter embossing powder.

{ Freebie Friday }

It's Freebie Friday at Tinkering Ink blog. You have to go HERE and leave a comment for a chance to win. I was blogging there all week. I made this card tonight with papers from Yuletide collection and Classic Holiday stamp set. I embossed the background with snowflakes. Maybe I can get a better photo tomorrow. I added little rhinestones to the flower centers and a little pearl for the eye.

{ 2 Sketches 4 You - Laura's sketch 12 }

***ETA: Laura thanks for letting me know that the comments were not working. I think its fixed now. I was finally able to create a card for 2 sketches 4 you. I had just a moment while Alex was napping this morning. I couldn't wait to use these new stamps by Kelly Panacci from Sandylion. They arrived last week! The patterned paper is Basic Grey Urban Prairie and you can find it at Embellish-Online.com. I embossed the bottom of my card with Cuttlebug Border Frills. Basic Grey paper has a white core so I was able to emboss an image and use my sanding block to sand the embossed area to get that white look. Tomorrow is our gallery reveal for November at Embellish-Online.com. Here is a little sneak peek for you.

I am blogging over at Tinkering Ink blog this week. Come and check it out. I am posting all new creations and giving away some goodies on Friday. For today I made a card set. You can see more photos on the blog, and instructions. For this project I used Evelyn patterned paper from Retro Metro collection, and Spring Stamp Set. Last week has been crazy busy for me, but I see the light at the end of the tunnel. Last night I fell asleep at the desk here. I was really tired and I put my head down just for a moment. When I woke up I laughed, it reminded me of school days. Hi from Alex.
