    Paper Pretties Wednesday Challenge PWC123


    So we are here again for another Challenge. This week the challenge is to use "Black & White and another color" It's hard to use only a couple colors. For my other color I used Kraft. The rest of our DT stamps haven't arrived yet so I hope you ain't getting sick of this set. I just love it. But this is "Oh Christmas Tree" which will be available on Paper Pretties on Friday. I used little pearls for the Christmas decorations and the background piece actually has the little snowflakes from the set on it also if you can semi see them.



    I hope everyone loves this set as much as I do. Come back tomorrow and I will have the Shirleys 2 Girls Challenge card and also another one of the Paper Pretties sneak peaks later after I get home from work. Then the Blog hop is on Friday.

    Paper Pretties Sneak Peak - Oh Christmas Tree



    Here is another card I made using the "Oh Christmas Tree" set from Paper Pretties which will be available after the Blog hop on Friday. This was the same technique as yesterdays, which I embossed and then I added rhinestones for ornaments which you could use anything including brads or even circles you punch out with a small hole punch. Very versatile as I said I just love this set.

    Oh Christmas Tree - Paper Pretties Preview




    Today I am showing you a card I made from the Oh Christmas Tree set which will be available on Friday October 15th. This set is so versatile and there are so many things you can do with it. I've made a couple of cards so far and today I am just showing you this one. I will have more later in the week. This set comes with the background tree and then an upper tree with swirls on it. I used Gold embossing powder and embossed the upper one. It also comes with several stars, snowflakes and a couple sayings. It is adorable. Like the other stamps it stamped perfect every time. I was real impressed cause it didn't leave any white blotches like some of the other ones do that I have used. You can click on the thumb nails to get each picture up closed and see how well it stamps. My card is 5.5 in size. This card was very simple to do. I used my cuttlebug larger folder for the background and used my nesties punch for the frame of it, stamped and embossed and that was it. I hope you enjoy my card. Come back tomorrow and I will show you another card I made with this gorgeous set.

    Don't forget Paper Pretties is under new US ownership and has fast reliable service.

    Paper Pretties Wednesday Challenge PWC122



    Today is our Wednesday Challenge at Paper Pretties which is a sketch. This sketch was a real challenge for me cause I couldn't figure out what to do with it. I ended up using the adorable Dog set from Victoria Case which is called Dog-Gone Birthday. Just a reminder these stamps are fabulous quality I just love them they stamp perfect every time. Also don't forget that Paper Pretties is under new Management and has excellent customer service and fast reasonable shipping. Also on the Paper Pretties Blog Heather is looking for new DT Members from January - June I believe of 2011. It's hard to believe that so much time has went by already since I joined the team it feels like yesterday. I have loved every minute of it. And also we have another release coming up which previews start on the 9th which is this Saturday. My days will be on Monday the 11th and our regular challenge on Wednesday the 13th and Release Day Blog hop which is Friday the 15th. But you know me if I can I will have some extra preview cards out there.

    Ok onto my card I said that I used the Dog-Gone Birthday set. I colored it with copics. Not sure if you can tell the difference but I used the brand new copic blending paper. Did I notice a difference not really but this is the only thing I have colored with it so far. Added lacquer on the eyes and cute ribbon and a cute button, I also have the hat, foot and ears 3d. And check out my 2nd picture. That adorable saying comes with the set and so does that footprint along with a few other sayings and I think a couple of doggy bones. See how well they stamp, first try too. Be back tomorrow for my Shirley's 2 Girls Challenge Card...
