Tuesday Trigger Card
I love the Moxie Fab World blog and Cath picks the most fantastic pictures for the Tuesday Triggers. This week I was really drawn to the bright colors in the Light and Bright challenge. I decided to pair it up with Clean and Simple sketch #98 since the room in the picture has such clean lines and crisp colors. I typically don’t use sketches, but the clean and simple style does not come easily to me and I didn’t want to spend a lot of time trying to figure out what I wanted to do. Having picked the sketch, I focused on the colors, deciding on More Mustard, Tempting...
Read MoreCards Challenge: Handmade Flowers (a variation on a theme)
When I saw the most recent Cards Challenge asking for handmade flowers I decided to revisit my Artisan Award entry that used the punch art flower. I’d already made the flower for the tutorial that I plan on writing, so I just needed to come up with a new idea for the base.

After I finished weaving the paper, I glued it onto my card base, making sure that the weave hung over the fold at the top of the card. I then ran the whole card through the Big Shot using the Top Note die,...

The So Shelli Creative Challenge for August is to use a color combination from Stampin’ Up!’s new Color Coach. I knew I wanted to give this challenge a try, but had originally intended to pick a combo using Bravo Burgundy, a color that I have a really hard time working with.

As I was working through months of scraps, I discovered that somewhere along the line the scrap pile had a run in with some Tombow Multipurpose Adhesive (ooops)....

My good friend and up-upline, Amy, just texted me to say “Help! I want to stamp but am creatively challenged!” So I made up this crazy challenge for her: Pick out your least used stamp set Pick out your 3 least favorite or used colors Make a 3″ x 4″ card My thinking is that if we work with stamps, colors, and a size that we don’t normally use it’ll get the juices flowing. I’m joining her in trying this tonight, and you should too! When you are done, take a photo, post online (splitcoast, your blog, flicker, wherever), and leave a note in the...
