Watercooler Wednesday Challenge #147 - Charlotte's "Anything Goes" Challenge

This week Charlotte is hosting our "Anything Goes" Challenge over at the Watercooler Wednesday Challenge.  Normally, our anything goes challenge is not a hosted challenge but due to our taking a wee bit of time off during Christmas, it worked out that way.

This is another card I made in the Fall Shine class taught by Lori Craig of Imagination International.  And, I fell in love with the Sand Paste and the Copper Metallic Paint.  You will be seeing both in upcoming projects.  I love the grittiness of the Sand Paste and the added texture it gives your project.


Stamp Set:  Fall Florals; Inks:  Chocolate Truffle, Cookie Monster, Plum Punch, Pumpkin; Dies:  Fall Florals Dies, Frame in Frame 2 Dies, Various Vases Dies; Cardstock:  Cookie Monster, Sugar Cube, Toffee; Other:  Woodgrain Embossing Folder; Tommy Art:  Copper Metallic Paint, Sand Paste

Watercooler Wednesday Challenge #146 - Kath's "All About Christmas" Challenge

This week Kath is hosting our "All About Christmas" Challenge over at the Watercooler Wednesday Challenge.  One of the cards I made at the Taylored Expressions Stamp Joy 2017 event is this fun slider card.  I think one of my younger grandchildren is going to love getting this card at Christmas.

You know, I've made only one other slider card and have steered away from then since.  I used pennies for the weight and they are just to heavy to mail.  But, one of the things I learned when making this one is that there are plastic discs that are light weight and so much nicer than the pennies.  Looks like slider cards are back on the list of cards I want to do.


Stamp Sets:  Quick Critters - Winter Stamp & Die Combo, Snow Day Background; Inks:  Oreo, Sprinkles; Dies:  Build a Scene - Mountain Tops, Make A Snowflake, On the Right Track - Build a Scene, Stitched Banner Stacklets Dies; Cardstock:  Cherry Pop, Salt Water Taffy, Sugar Cube, Toffee; Other:  On the Right Track Discs, Pop Dot Adhesives, Salt Water Taffy Enamel Shapes
