Game #57 is now up on the AAA Cards Blog. The theme is "Love Me Like You Do" - Love/Valentine. Our sponsor is Happy Little Stampers, and the winner will receive a $20.00 gift certificate to the HLS store.

Here is my take on the challenge:

I used 3 shades of red distress ink to tint the embossing paste I used with my stencil. I really love the way this simple card turned out.  Please head on over to the AAA Cards Challenge blog and see what my wonderful teammates have created, leave them a little love, then try your hand at a love themed project!

ANYTHING GOES

SSS is  showcasing their very own SIMON SAYS STAMP PRODUCTS this week.

LOVE IS IN THE AIR + USE RED 

As red is the color of love, use a hint of that in your creation. 
I used 3 shades of red distress ink to tint the embossing paste.

Thanks so much for your visit today.

Celebrate

The current Seize the Birthday Challenge is Anything Goes with an optional topping of Clean and Simple. I watched a video by Savannah O'Gwynn on the Paper Smooches Education Blog today about die cutting with washi tape. You can view it HERE. What a great idea! My card is a CASE of her card featured in the video.

Thanks for stopping in for a visit today.

Friends Forever

This week's inspiration for Tag You're It #39 is so adorable.  I love that little camper and many of the DT pieces had vehicles or homes on them, but I chose the sky as the inspiration for my creation.  Here is my take:

I love these Paper Smooches dies and they came to mind when I saw Erin's clouds. I wanted a sentiment that meant something like "no matter what the weather...". After a lot of digging, I found this sentiment from a Tailored Expressions set called "Branching Out" that was deep in my stash. Perfect.

I am also going to link this project to the current Simon Says Monday challenge, which is

BEST FRIENDS.

Thanks so much for stopping in today. As I type, there is a blizzard going on here in the northeastern part of the US. LOTS of snow, and lots of crafting time for me! Woot!  As always, I appreciate your taking the time to comment. Your feedback is wonderful.

Love Will Keep Us Warm

The theme for the current AAA Cards challenge is Winter Wonderland.  AAA Challenges now have prizes! Our sponsor for this challenge is Make It Crafty.  

1st Place: $8 credit

2nd Place: $4 credit

3rd Place: $4 credit

Here is my take on the challenge:

This adorable image is from Make It Crafty. It is stamped on Neenah Solar White paper, colored with Copics and fussy cut. I stamped the "snow" with an image from Winnie & Walter's Scenery: Big Bang Confetti, embossed it in white, and then sponged over it with distress ink to create a snowy sky. I mounted the colored images on white glitter paper, added a sentiment from Paper Smooches Warm Hearts and tied some twine to complete the card.

Please head on over to the AAA Cards Challenge blog, see what my talented teammates have created, and leave them some love.  Then try your hand at our Winter Wonder challenge, link up and play with us!  Please remember, your card must be CAS.

I am also linking my card to the following challenges:
