It was busy time at the Christmas, because we invite the Mother In Law to have dinner here for 3 Days...it is better that she not feel alone at the senior home and can a bit speaking with me and my sons. She already get better after chemotherapy, she can think more clear better than at July 2014 :) Good give her miracle :)
Now about the card I made...I think I am late to all the challenge also I will make this as a quick blog post today
Firts card is for the challenge at STAMPlorations using this sketch #19 from past challenge:
I want to join the challenge at STAMPLORATIONS this December Challenge Thema: Stamps and Designer's Choice. I choose that past sketch #19.
After I stamped the lady from Pink Cat Studio 3 times, I stamped her Suitcase with the Crossing Lines from The Alley Way Stamps (Can you Imagine a friend of mine bought this set for me for a gift...thanks Miss A...you are so kind to me :) also now I have two sets of stripes Stamp, one from Papetres Ink (sent from Cornelia in USA) and one from The Alley Way Stamp.) Then I stamped her skirt two times to make this Gingham pattern with red ink. Colored the rest with red, blue n brow copic marker.
The Rose stamp for the strip behind the main Image is from STAMPLORATIONS.(I got it from Shery the Owner from Stamplorations...many thanks dear Shery this is a cute set and romantic rose stamp)
Challenge for my first card:
Inspired By Stamping #89: Gingham
Simon Says: Anything Goes
Loves Rubberstamp #131: Holiday Blitz Antyhing Goes
Second card I made using this Photo Inspiration from BE INSPIRED Challenge #60:
I used this set from The Alley Way Stamp to for my card and I inspired with the picture at the right top.
I stamped the stripes with pink and black ink and made my own Pattern Paper.
I am new at making Plaid Paper also forgive me to "not so perfect stamped look" :) The sentiment I stamped also in pink around the circle to gave a bit variation on the main Image.
Challenge for my second card:
Word Art Wednesday #163: Anything Goes
Penny's Paper Crafty Challenge #208: Anything Goes
My Third card is for a challenge also from STAMPLORATIONS this is the SKETCH Challenge #24.
I choose the SKETCHED: Simple Gift from STAMPLORATIONS. Stamped on the pattern paper and simply arrange it on the orange paper. The sentiment also from the same set.
The faux stitched I made with my hand, two times..and it made my card not look so empty with that stitched around my card.
Sometimes Sketch Challenge is easier for me, I have not to think about the design of my card only think which stamp should I use for that sketch :) dont you agree too?
Challenge for my third card:
The Paper Shelter: Anything Goes
Little Red Wagon #269: Happy Birthday
Penny Black and More Challenge (December): Special Occasions
Now I run for making lunch for my little boys and my big DH at my home :)
Thanks for looking and happy holidays, in Munich it is snow all over our garden :)
Love,
So happy to heat your mother in law is doing better. Your cards are beautiful, your handmade background as always is stunning, I like the hand drawn stitching-mine would not look that good, my favorite is the lady with the suitcase, postponing is one of my favorites, and like your combination of patterns, it is stunning!
