Pretty Pastels - DTBST 222

Hi Everyone

It's Thursday and so time for another DTBST challenge over at Sassy Studios.  The challenge this week is to create something using 'Pretty Pastels'.  Although my photo doesn't show it very well, the blues and yellow in the background paper are pastel shades.

This is an empty pump dispenser that I decided to re-purpose.  The image I am using is Bubble Bath Sassy - I love playing around with this image and using stickles to make the bubbles shimmer and shine.

Here is a look at the label before I attached it to the dispenser.

The background paper is a file from the Silhouette online store, which along with the sentiment I printed using the Cameo.  The image is coloured with ProMarkers, and the bubble finished off with some stickles.

I hope you will join us for today's challenge and check out all the great projects from the rest of the DT over at Sassy Studios.

Until next time.

Prima Doll Thankful Tag

Hi Everyone

Today I am guest designer over at A Scrap N Place, and for my last project of the month I saved my favourite.  I was really excited when Terri told me that she would be selling the Prima Doll stamps, and I couldn't wait to play.

I really love paper piecing (fussy cutting), I can use up so many of the little scraps that I have in my stash, and this is what makes these dolls so versatile.

Supplies used:

Kraft card stock
Green and Brown cardstock (Bazzil)
Sentiment (Canvas Corp)
Embossing folder (Sizzix)
Prima Doll Stamp
Corner Bow die (Memory Box)
Flower punch (Marvy)
Pearls
Sheer ribbon
Brown lace

Thanks for stopping by today.  Until next time.

Sassy Studios March Release "Go Green...It's Spring"

Hi Everyone 

Welcome to Sassy Studios March Image Release and Blog Hop. You should have arrived here from Lindsays blog, but if you have just happened upon the hop by chance you may want to go back to the beginning at Lori's blog.

Once again Lindsay has come up with some great new images, and there is a challenge for you to join in with.  We have a Tic Tac Toe board, use any three square in a row up and down or across (if you wanted to you could try and incorporate everything on the board!)

Here is my project, using the middle line across.

This is a tissue packet holder (using a file that I made with my Silhouette Cameo) - don't you think a friend who has the sniffles would like this?

This is what the back looks like, I actually used some acetate from some packaging as my 'reuse' item to make the 'glass'.

The aspirin stamp is one that I bought from a stamping expo years ago, I've mounted them on pop-up dots - they look quite realistic.

So I hope you enjoyed my project.  You next stop is with my sassy team mate Karal.  I hope you will join in with the challenge for a chance to win some of the new sassy images.

Michelle

Guess what's coming this weekend.....

You are going to love the new images.  Wanna sneak peek?

Any guesses as to who they might be?

All will be revealed tomorrow - hope you'll join us for the hop.

Happy St Patty's Day - DTBST 220

Hi Everyone

It's Thursday, so time for a new DTBST challenge over at Sassy Studios.  Challenge #220 is 'Happy St Patty's Day' - make a St Patrick's Day project.

For my 'sweet' project I used Clover, who was a new image from our last release in February.

The sentiment is created using Silhouette Sketch pens and a Thin font from Lettering Delights.

Thanks for stopping by today - I hope you will join us over at Sassy Studios for the challenge for your chance to win some images, you never know the 'Luck O' The Irish' could be with you!

Anything Goes - LTC

Hi Everyone

We have a new challenge over at Love To Create - the ever popular 'Anything Goes'.  This week we have three sponsors Beccy's Place, A Day for Daisies and Yours or Mine Papercrafts.

My image is from A Day for Daisies and is called 'A Lap Full of Kittens' - this image is so sweet, and I wanted to keep the card fairly plain just to make the image the focal point.

All papers are from my stash, and I added at little Card Candi and wound some string around the background card stock to represent more 'yarn'.

I hope you will join us for the challenge and come over to the LTC blog and check out the projects from the rest of the DT.

See you next time.

You should have arrived here from Kitty's blog, but if this is your first stop you may want to go back to the beginning at Sassy Studios.  For my card I have used Uhura Sassy, because she is just perfect to go along with one of Greg's new sentiments.

How fun is that?  Greg has come up with some wonderful sentiments, I hope you will check them all out at the store, there is bound to be one that is just perfect to go along with your sassy image.

Your next stop is at Karal's blog.  Don't forget to leave some love for each DT member along the way and join in with the challenge, keep on hopping all the way through because somewhere along the hop are details of how to get a FREEBIE!  We will also be chatting on The SSD Party Blog from 5 -7 pm PST - come and chat with the DT and Artists behind Sassy Studios.

Make It Fly - DTBST 219

Hi Everyone

Welcome to a new DTBST challenge over at Sassy Studios.  Challenge #219 is 'Make It Fly' - use something with wings.  Well I was going to go for butterflys, and then I found this 'rub-on' in my stash and knew I had to use it to make a cover for my passport.

The image I have used is Great Britain Honey - I used my cameo to print and cut her, then coloured her with ProMarkers.

This fits perfectly over my passport - rarely make anything I keep for myself, so I am loving this.

I hope you will join us this week for the challenge over at Sassy Studios and check out all the great projects by the DT.

See you next time.
