Card Patterns Sketch 57

Although this is Card Patterns 57th sketch challenge, it is my first time playing along.  I had some time to stamp this weekend, my NEW Gina K stamps were calling my name and Mr. Mojo paid me a visit. LOL!  Here is the card I made using the sketch.  You can click on the photo for a closer view.  I would love to know what you think of my project. I enjoy reading the comments and seeing who is visiting. Makes me feel like I'm not just talking to myself. :o)

StampTV Color Challenge

I made this quilt card for Tina's color challenge over at StampTV.com.  I love the new Gina K Designs sets Nana's Needlework & Nana's Needlework Sentiments (illustrated by Nina Brackett).  Since green, purple and white were the colors for this challenge, I pulled out my Basic Grey Wisteria paper pad for this one.  Using this set has put me in the sewing mood.  So I used my sewing machine a few times on papercrafting projects this weekend.  Including this card.

Gina K Designs March Release Sketch Challenge

I am adding a quick post tonight. I made this coffee card for the Gina K Designs March Release Sketch Challenge being hosted by Lee Murphy. 


I used the coffee mug from the Signs of Autumn and the sentiment is from Heartily Yours Additions.  I have been trying to make a point of doing more stitching on my cards. I really love the look and never seem to get my sewing machine out.  I stitched around the border of the yellow panel with a straight stitch. And I used a zig zag stitch to attach the ribbon to the two Wine strips.

Ink: Memento Tuxedo Black, Copic markers {R59, E37, E31}
Other: Labels 8 Nestability Die, Paisley Embossing Folder
