I'm so excited!  I am hosting the challenge for my teammates over at The Ink Spot!

I have challenged the design team to make a winter scene using either Riley and Company stamps, or Cornish Heritage Farm stamps.  

Here is my card:

I have used Cornish Heritage Farm stamp Fir Tree Winter Scene.  You can find that HERE.  I sponged using three different shades of blue, and then added some glitter to the "snow."

Make sure you head on over to the blog and check out the rest of the design team blogs and see their winter scenes.  They really have outdone themselves! 

Have a great week!

Earth Tones

Good morning!  It's a beautiful Sunday!  Today at Dream Valley we are looking for cards or projects using earth tones.  

This fortnight out sponsor is:

The winner gets £20 to spend in the store!

For my card I have used the Stampin' Up set Little Boys.  I stamped the image and sentiment on kraft paper.  I had never colored with copics on kraft paper before, so I wasn't sure how it would work out.  It just turns out that you can't use the lightest blending tones on the kraft because it only looks like it's wet instead of a color.  The darker colors show up better.  I didn't want to color in the whole image, because I wanted the blues and browns to really show up like those photos you see where one color is popping out.  Couldn't resist the green frog though!

I would like to add this to the following challenges:

Drunken Stampers - use kraft

Our Creative Corner - our boys and their toys

Secret Crafter - men's card

Have a great week!
