Ribbons, ribbons and more ribbons!

Hello and happy Monday to you all!  Today at Totally Stampalicious we would like you to use at least three different types of ribbons on your card or project.  

For my card I used lots of different scraps of ribbons.  I had seen this tutorial here, and I thought that was such a great idea to use up bits and pieces that I had saved.  The sentiment is from Totally Stampalicious set  Fairytale Charlotte.  

I would like to enter this into the challenge at Stamp, Scrap and Doodle to use a die cut or punch.

I hope you have an awesome week, and don't forget to link up your ribbon project at Totally Stampalicious!

Valentine's at Dream Valley

Hello again!  It's Superbowl Sunday!  Are all you Pats fans ready?!  It's also time for another challenge at Dream Valley!  Today we are looking for some Valentine's Day projects. 

We have two awesome sponsors this fortnight.  The first one is One Stop Card Crafts who is donating this cool prize:

The second is Joanna Sheen!  

The prize is a 10 pound gift certificate to the store.  There's also free shipping and handling with only a minimum of a 5 pound order!

For my project this time around I have made a bookmark.  

I have been making more Valentine's card this year than I ever make, so I decided to give cards a break and do a little less traditional bookmark with a definitely less than traditional Valentine's set!  

The stamp set I have used is from Totally Stampalicious entitled Stupid Cupid.  I colored Stella in with my copics and punched the sentiment out with an oval punch from Stampin' Up.  The paper is some scrap that I had in my HUGE scrap box.  Definitely will be going through some of that soon and weeding it out!

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

One Stop Craft Challenge - For the One I Love

Stamp Scrap and Doodle - die cuts or punches

Prairie Fun Fridays - anything but a card

Alota Rubber Stamps - #76 Love with no Red

I hope you come play along with us at Dream Valley!  Have a great week and Go Pats!

Embossing Challenge

Hello and happy Wednesday to you all!  I am finally starting to feel better after almost a week and a half of having pneumonia.  Recovery is a little on the slow side, but at least I am back to work!

Today at The House That Stamps Built Miriam has challenged us to do some heat embossing.  If you like to heat emboss, then why don't you play along?

For my project I have made a simple valentine's card.  I heat embossed Repeat Impressions' stamp 4903-F Love Post  in clear, then swiped the ink pad over it and wiped the image off so it would show better.  I added another Repeat Impressions image 6103-J Thinking Vertical in black on the left.  I backed it on red and added black ribbon before putting on a plain white card.

Have a great rest of the week, and I hope you play along!
