Just a quick little post today….not sure how much stamping time I will have, so I thought I would post another card I made for the sale basket at my Curves:
I did a little collage of images from a new CHF set I just got called Sew Special. Oh my goodness, I am IN LOVE with this set. I am such a softie for vintage sewing stuff! Anyway, I stamped my images in Basic Gray and Going Gray on Very Vanilla, then added some faux lace eyelet (see tutorial here on Sage’s blog), a punched border and my sentiment from Teeny Tiny Wishes. The DP is from K&Co, Small Wonders Boy; ribbon is retired SU.
Is anyone challenge-challenged? There are so many out there, I am suffering from withdrawal, since I just can’t get to them all! Anyone else feel my frustration? I wish there were more hours in the day!
Oh LeAnne!.....I'm seriously swooning over this one. G-O-R-G-E-O-U-S!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteI understand the challenge frustrations. There are just so many out there that I would like to try. But, I have limited myself to 2-3 a month. Sometimes only one a month. Because it can drive you crazy trying to get all those challenges done along with all the other cards I make. So that's how I handle it. And, I love your sewing theme card! It is just beautiful.
ReplyDeleteLove it LeAnne! Some Mommy will be so thrilled to receive it! The soft colours are so pretty!
ReplyDeleteI know what you mean about Challenge overload! I was feeling that ay this weekend, but I have been slowly getting around to my favs! I combined the CTD with my 10 minute challenge this week!! And I am offering Blog Candy for the first time tomorrow with my post! Yippee!!
Have a great day!
Lesley ;)
Oh. My. Gosh. I am in LOVE with this! Totally vintage and I love that faux eyelet lace! Thanks for the link--that's some cool stuff!
ReplyDeleteThis is a fabulous card.
ReplyDeleteI generally don't do challenges, because of my schedule I only have time to stamp on a Saturday night or a Sunday afternoon. With those restrictions I almost always miss the deadline. But I love seeing what you do with the challenges, and they do ultimately push my creativity and give me ideas.
Love the sewing images-made a really pretty card.
ReplyDeleteI used to try to do the daily challenges on SCS when I first started stamping and they really helped me learn and try new techniques. Seems I don't get around to very many anymore; the older I get the slower I get!!
LeAnne, This card is just wonderful. I just love the color combo! Thanks so much for sharing with us all.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great card! Love your ruffled eyelet paper border! :)
ReplyDeleteOh My Goodness this is Wonderful. I really love this card!!!
ReplyDeleteWoW, this is just gorgeous, LeAnne!
ReplyDeleteI feel your challenge pain ... I'm totally addicted to challenges. LOL, I think I need to see someone about it!
Here's what we need: someone to create a blog that's updated daily with all the challenge blogs out there. And not just listing the name of the challenge; listing the requirements too. THAT would help us challenge-addicts!
Now, who can we convince to do it?!? LOL!
Oooh, this is lovely!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous! LOVE that eyelet lace!
ReplyDeleteLove this! Blue and vintage... Perfect combo!
