CAS at Totally Stampalicious

Today we'd like something Clean and Simple at Totally Stampalicious!  When I saw this cutie, I just had to use some googlie eyes!  This set is called Mons-Teriffic and you can find it HERE at the Totally Stampalicious store.

I hope you find the time to play along with us and if I don't see you before then have a very Merry Christmas!

Anything Goes at Totally Stampalicious!

It's another Anything Goes challenge and we'd love to see you play along with us at Totally Stampalicious!  This will give you the time to show us all of your holiday cards!  Don't forget we love to see Totally Stampalicious images...and it might even double the prize if you win!

My seven year-old daughter helped me with this card!  I colored the image, she picked the backing paper and stuck it on.  She also stamped the Brrrr all over and pleated the pink ribbon.  She was such a big help to me when I was trying to finish up all my projects!  The image is one of our new sets over at the Totally Stampalicious store called Girlz Winter.  You can find it HERE!

Have a great week!

Christmas at Dream Valley

This is the last post of the year for us at Dream Valley.  We are taking a long and fun time off to spend with our families over the holidays!  Therefore the challenge will run right up through the month with plenty of time for you to play along!  Our challenge is to show us your Christmas cards and projects!

Have a great rest of the year!

Wine Bottle Tag

We have a challenge at Totally Stampalicious this week to make anything but a card.  Now there's a side story to my project.  My husband has been making these wooden wine glass holders in his wood shop that we have been selling at craft fairs in the area.  He has also been making cheeseboards and my mother has been hand-painting wine bottles to sell along with everything.  When this challenge came up I decided to get on the bandwagon so to speak!  Here is a wine glass tag made using Friends Wine that you can find HERE at the Totally Stampaliciuos store.

So much fun and a great hostess gift! 

I would like to add this card to the following challenges:

Anything but a Card - ABC
Live and Love Crafts - anything but a card

Have a great week, and happy entertaining!

Snowflakes at Totally Stampalicious!

I hope everyone was able to participate in the Black Friday Deal over at the Totally Stampalicious store!  It was a great deal at only $5 per stamp set!

Today at the Totally Stampalicious blog Christmas is in full swing!  We'd like to see cards or projects with some SNOWFLAKES!

I have used some kraft cardstock and stamped some snowflakes at the top and paired it with some awesome blue snowflake ribbon I had in my stash.  Pair that with the sentiment from Let It Snow Stella that you can find HERE in the Totally Stampalicious store and we have our snowflake card!  With just a punch of humor...teehee.  That's Stella for you! :)

Non-Traditional Christmas at Dream Valley

Good morning!  I hope all of you are enjoying the weekend!  I know I am!  Christmas plans are in full swing, the cards have been mailed out and now on to decorating!  We're also in the Christmas mood over at Dream Valley!  This time however we would like to see your NON-TRADITIONAL Christmas cards.

For my card I have used a Stampin' Up set.  I have to say that I made it a while ago, so if anyone can fill me in on the set name that would be great!  LOL

I inked the pink circle with a mask and sponges and then used the reverse of the mask to cover it and stamp the snowflakes.  Next step was to stamp the image and sentiment in black.  A clean and simple card, in pink!

Come on over to play at Dream Valley and you could be the winner of 4 images of your choice from our sponsor Meljen's Designs!

I can't wait to see your creations!

Black and White Christmas

I've heard of a blue Christmas, but have you heard of a black and white Christmas?  Naaa me neither!  Then it's perfect for our non-traditional Christmas card challenge at Totally Stampalicious!

I have used Deacon and Ava HoHo that you can find HERE in the Totally Stampalicious store.  I stamped them in white ink on black paper and black ink on white paper.  The next step was to cut the black paper at an angle and match it up with the image on the white paper.  I kept the papers big, then matched it up, then cut them down together later to make my panel.  

Don't forget to play along in our challenge!  I can't wait to see the awesome entries!

Have a great week!

Today at Dream Valley we are looking for cards or projects for celebrations!  Our sponsor this fortnight is Digi Doodle Shop.

For my card I have made a card for a male birthday.  The stamp set is from Close to My Heart.  The paper is Stampin' Up.  I originally had just planned to make this a one layer card on kraft paper, but I decided to cut it down and distress the edges and mount it on a dark bluish/purple paper.  

I hope you have a great week!
