Coloring Down the Lines - Not Quite Navy

Welcome in from Amanda's blog at www.ourcraftyplaydate.blogspot.com.  I know she always has a beautiful creation.   This week's color is Not Quite navy- I chose the first color combination with pumpkin pie and garden green. When I got all my colors pulled out, thankfully a lightbulb went on and i found my new Full of Blessings stamp set.  It's a little hard to tell the difference between the green and navy, but the pumpkin makes these wreaths pop!  I Love it!!  It reminds me of a wallpaper pattern.  And I love this method of 3-step stamping.  You'll  be seeing a lot more of them in the future from me.  Enjoy... and now go on to Helen's fabulous idea that she made for us.  www.bluedahliadesigns.blogspot.com.    She knows how to inspire me, for sure!  Thanks for visiting. CarolSmith  I think  this is a unique look for sure.

Winter Memories

Enjoy your Wednesday, everyone.  Thanks for dropping by... Isn't this just rich, and gorgeous?  I love it.  Brings back memories, for sure.  I used winter memories' skates, sponged a little crumb cake over them, and added some gold glitter glue on the blades.  Emboss with the oval folder and cut out with some postage edge scissors.  Fasten over top the new embossed testured impressions folder and add a gold bow.  WOW!  Thanks for looking.  Carol Smith

Morning Chat Challenge - Cupcakes!

Bling, bling, bling!  Eat something cute.  Join us this week in our Morning chat challenge at www.butternutsagedesigns.blogspot.com.      Our challenge this time was to make cupcakes.  (Not the edible kind).  I don't have cupcake stamps, persay so I improvised...   I used distressed dots for my background in crumb cake- I crimped my brown paper for the cup and used the end of an Oval Accent  Bigz die for the icing.  Put some colored beads on and fill in the "icing" with glitter.  Cute. Hope you like it.  Thanks for visiting.  Carol Smith

Coloring Down the Lines - Night of Navy

You've just arrived here from Amanda's wonderful blog at www.ourcraftyplaydate.blogspot.com.  This week we used Night of Navy with either pumpkin pie and cherry cobbler, or Old Olive and Daffodill Delight.  I used the 2nd one, but not sure how i feel about this one.  I just stamped it on the dsp and then colored them in with my markers and outlined in night of navy ink with my blender pen.  Let me know what you think, k?  Now go for some more inspiration in Helen's blog at www.bluedahliadesigns.blogspot.com.  She always has a way of inspiring me.  Enjoy and thanks for visiting.  Carol Smith
ps- this set is called Growing Green.
