The House That Stamps Built: Clean & Simple

  This weeks challenge at  Repeat Impressions is a one layer

clean and simple card.

I am not a CAS gal but I was quite happy with how this card

turned out.  I blended with a few different colors so they

would fade out and then embossed Repeat Impressions:

Dandelion Breeze and I'm so glad there's you.

 

Join the fun and you might be the lucky winner of the monthly drawing

 for the  $25 Repeat Impression's  gift certificate. You don't have

 to useRepeat Impression stamps but an extra chance if you do.

The House That Stamps Built: Outdoor Fun

     This weeks challenge at  Repeat Impressions is Outdoor Fun-anything with an

outdoor theme.

 

I went with an outdoor scene using Repeat Impressions:

Birdbath

Tiny bird: front, side and flight

Grass Border

 

  I added some clouds, die cut layers and a flower brad to finish my card. This

card also used up snippets of blue card stock and patterned paper.

The House That Stamps Built: 1-2-3 Challenge

 This week the challenge at The House is 1-2-3, 1 stamp, 2 papers, and

3 embellishments.

 

Let me get you started with an idea:

 

I went with a pinwheel card.  I was surprised how easy these are to

make!  I used pink paper from my stash, patterned paper is from

Amuse and Nana's Kids, Butterfly and Hope your birthday from 

Repeat Impressions (yes I goofed and used 2 stamps), Die cut butterfly 

from Gina Marie designs and unsure where the Happy Birthday is from.

 to useRepeat Impression stamps but an extra chance if you do.

The House That Stamps Built: Pick of the Week

 My turn for Pick of the Week for The House That Stamps Built.  Last month for my POTW 

 I did several ways to use one stencil.  This month I am using the same stencil, two

additional ways.

On the first card I just stenciled a heavy layer in the center and faded out as I sent, using only about a third of the stencil:

On this card I used a light and a dark pink and alternated diagonal stripes of each:

Repeat Impression supplies:

Because

Butterfly (lg)

Just Because

 

Other: 

Stamplorations stencil

 

Thanks for stopping by, have a wonderful week!

The House That Stamps Built: Sparkle and Shine

 That's right, this week at The House That Stamps Built is Sparkle and Shine, 

your interpretation.

My take on this challenge:

 

I immediately thought of this  pack of designer paper with all gold, sparkly 

and foiled papers by the paper studio and went with this fun paper and a fun

fold.  I thought Thinking of You embossed in gold on a round die cut layered

on gold complimented the paper well.

The House That Stamps Built: Card and Matching Envelope

 This week at The House we are wanting to see a card and a  matching envelope:

 

 I am having so much fun playing with stencils that I decided to go with a

stencil theme.  I thought this Hero Arts graphic stencil paired well with Repeat

Impressions vertical Happy Birthday.   I used Distress Oxides: faded jeans,

mermaid lagoon, peeled paint and cracked pistachio.  A few splatters,  a little bling and 

the card wascomplete, I used the same stencil on part of my envelope.

Repeat Impression stamps but an extra chance if you do.
