Focus on Red with Bildmalarna

Hi Friends,

Today there is a new challenge at the Bildmalarna Challenge blog. We have a color inspiration challenge for you … Focus on Red.

For my project I chose to make a box with a surprise inside.

 IMG_1431 (Small)

I used the following items which are available at Stamping Scrapping so be sure to check them out.

 IMG_1432 (Small)

And when you open the box the sides fall down and you see Mimo with Stocking Cap sitting on the Snowy Fence.

I cut the trees out using my Stretch Your Imagination Cricut cart, added some Vanilla Smooch Spritz, flowers, snow and little Christmas lights from my stash. I inked the edges of the box using the new Tim Holtz Victorian Velvet distress ink.

This is a close up of the front of the box.

Ribbon Challenge at SSCC

Happy Halloween! Today it is my turn, Stephanie, to post on Stamping Scrapping Challenge Central . Even though it is Halloween I chose to create a card that features the Bildmalarna Baby stamp.

IMG_1425 (Small)

What do you think? I used the following items to create this cutie:

Here are some more pics:

 IMG_1426 (Small)

I added a sparkly tulle bow behind the nestie and added rhinestones to the SSD stamp. It’s a great stamp, it stamps circles and you can just place your embellishment over the top, awesome idea!

IMG_1427 (Small)

Close up of the image all colored in pastels.

IMG_1428 (Small)

I cute a ribbon and threaded it through where the ribbon is placed on the stamped image.

IMG_1429 (Small)

I threaded ribbon through the punch all the way around the mat.

And the inside.

Purple and Black at Magnolia Stamp Lovers

Hi Friends,
Today starts our new challenge of Purple and Black at Magnolia Stamp Lovers. IMG_1412 (Small)
For my card I used this adorable Longing Tilda for my image. For my borders I used MS Looped Hearts punches. My sentiment is from SSD Stamps Lacey Squares.
IMG_1415 (Small)
I colored her with the following Copics and used the new Copic X-Press paper. This is some great paper!  I added some Ranger Stickles to the lace on her sleeve and her headband.
  • Skin – E13, E11, E00, E000, E0000, R22, R21, R20
  • Dress – B69, B66, B63
  • Hair – E35, E33, E51, E50
  • Outline – B60
  • Tabletop – N3, N2, N1
IMG_1413 (Small) IMG_1414 (Small) 
For my bow I punched a piece of 12 x 1 paper, scored it every 1/2” and pulled it into a circle. For the black portion I cut a piece of lace and threaded the bottom, pulled it together and tied if off. I will have a tutorial soon on how I did this.
For the inside of my card I used the MS Heart Looped punches again.
IMG_1416 (Small)
With the size of the bow I needed a larger envelope so I used my pattern from Priscilla Style’s for an envelope box.
IMG_1417 (Small)
For the front of the box I used the same MS punch, my square nestabilities and more stamps from the SSD Stamps Labels Square.  I used embossing powder for the images.
IMG_1418 (Small)
Here is a close up.
IMG_1419 (Small)
And a pic of the back of the envelope box.

Thanks for stopping by to see my creation!
