Three Challenges-Three Cards

 Hey Everybody,

Today I have several cards I made for challenges on Splitcoaststampers. 

Faith's challenge is all about New Year's Resolutions. You can find it here.

My resolution is to walk on the treadmill. I saw this sentiment and thought a sloth would go great with it. I stamped multiple sloths on my card base and added the sentiment and a digital image. This will stay in my studio at my desk as a reminder.

Do you make resolutions? I usually don't but this is a good one to have. Like the sentiment says, slow progress is better than no progress.


Keywords: WT1088 Sloth treadmill exercise
Stamps: digital image, sloth stamp/die given to me
Paper: white, basic beige
Paper Size: A2
Ink: sahara sand
Techniques: stamping, digital image


Jeanette's challenge today is Education. Here is her challenge. 
I knew which stamp I wanted to use right away. I stamped the image with versafine ink. Then I went in search of designer series paper. I found what I needed in my Delightfully Eclectic envelope of paper. I stamped the sentiment in pretty peacock and added the papers to a black card base.

What would you use for this challenge? I bet you have something in your stash you could use like black paper that you could write on with white pen like a chalkboard. How about pencils or crayons? Maybe you have food for the cafeteria or books for the library. It sure is interesting what people choose.

Anita's challenge is to use bubble wrap on your card.

I wondered what it would look like if I used three colors of ink and used a stencil. I added the stencil to the white cardstock. I used the bubble wrap and pounced into the different colors of ink, then onto the cardstock. I removed the stencil and placed the hearts on my background with dimensionals. This will go on a dinner tray at a local hospital.

What would you do with the bubble wrap? What colors would you use? What would you add on top of your bubble background? 

Well, thanks for stopping by today. Little by little my new studio is coming together. I'm slowly getting things organized and not just shoved into a cupboard or drawer.

Tonight I sorted through dies and put some in my die storage notebooks. Some that I don't use as often went into a cupboard near the Stamp, Cut and Emboss machine.

Stay warm, we had all schools closed today with below zero temps across the Northeast of the state.
Blessings,
Sue
