1 Card, 5 Challenges

So today I sat down to do some stamping.  On a Saturday I always look through the challenges and see what's around.  There are just so many challenge blogs out there I see what can be combined.  So this card is for fivechallenges, I could have entered into at least eight!  But I thought I would save that for a few more cards.  So, the five challenges are:-

1.  Sketch & Stash Challenge - Sketch
2.  Papertake Weekly - Christmas Crackers
3.  Whiff of Joy - Christmas
4.  Cute Card Thursday - Boys card
5.  A Spoon Full of Sugar - Brown plus blue or pink

I used a stamp from the Whiff of Joy winter kit that I hadn't inked up together with those lovely MME papers again.

Supplies: Whiff of Joy Stamp, Daisy & Dandelion Sentiment Stamp; MME papers; Snowflake punches; gems; brown chalk ink, Stampin' Up! eyelet punch

Whiff of Joy Challenge #56

Here's the third card I made yesterday.  This time I used a fabulous sketch over at Whiff of Joy Challenge.  Although there were a lot of layers, I really enjoyed working with this sketch and love the result.  I used another of the stamps from the winter kit that I hadn't yet inked up and once again used those lovely MME papers.  I am really pleased with all the cards I have made using these papers, glad I have tons of it left!

Supplies:  Whiff of Joy stamp; My Mind's Eye paper; Daisy & Dandelion sentiment stamp; flower, snowflake punch, pearls, brad; ribbon, brown chalk ink; Stampin' Up! eyelet punch, Stampin' Up! oval punch

4 in 1 Card

I've outdone my self on yesterday, I managed to get 4 challenges for this card!!  I used my other new santa WoJ stamp and more of those MME papers - yummy!  I used fluffy stuff for Santa's suit.  I was so pleased with this card when it was finished.

The first is the sketch from Stamp with Fun.  Second was Creative Card Crew which was scalloped - I used a scallop punch to create a border.  Third was for Whiff of Joy Challenge  which was to use die cuts and I used a Cuttlebug snowflake die.  Last but not least was for My Time to Craft which was quick and cute - Well I think this santa is super cute!

Whiff of Joy Challenge #48

It's Saturday once again and I'm sat watching the X Factor.  How good was that guy from Chicago?  This some great talent in this year's show.  Not very happy that Strictly is on at the same time!  I keep quickly flicking over to see what is happening but it's not the same.

Here's my card for the Whiff of Joy Challenge.  It was a fabulous sketch by Heather.  Yes I'm using up my old papers again.  This time I pulled out some Basic Grey papers.  I coloured the image using promarkers, including a couple of the new ones.  Must get me some of those!!

Whiff of Joy #47

Here's my entry for the Whiff of Joy Challenge which was to use the colours Teal and Orange.  It was a bit of a last minute rush to get it finished but as I had coloured the image in a couple of days ago I wanted to get it done and uploaded.  I used promarkers to colour the image and used some old MME papers - again!

Supplies:

Papers - My Mind's Eye

Tools - Cuttlebug and Nestabilities

Whiff of Joy Challenge #46

Here's my card for the WoJ Challenge. A fab sketch by the wonderfully talented Bev.  I used my fave papers from K&Co.  I'm trying to use as much as I can of my old papers before I buy anymore.  It's going well....so far!  I used my promarkers to colour the image in.  I'm really pleased that they are bringing out some new colours, although I have not got all of the others yet!

Whiff of Joy Challenge

I thought as I now had some WoJ stamps, that I would take part in this week's Whiff of Joy Challenge. Not only is this a challenge but also a call for Guest Designer for Whiff of Joy Stamps. Katharina has provided a fantastic sketch. I absolutely loved making this card up. It's one of the best I think I have made for a long while and love it! I had a rumage through my box of Basic Grey papers and found some I've not used before. The image is obviously Whiff of Joy and is one from the spring set. I've used my prismas again.

Supplies:

Image - Whiff of Joy

Sentiment - Stampin Up

Papers - Basic Grey

Other - Charm, flowers, brad and ribbon from my stash

Hope you all have had a lovely weekend. Doesn't it go so quick?!
