Mojo Monday Sketch: Happy 300!

Congrats to Verve's Mojo Monday 300th Challenge! Wow, definitely a reason to celebrate! There is quite a party going on and if you haven't already, please sure to check out everything HERE. There are some awesome prizes too! So as luck would have it, my WMS order came today!! And I couldn't wait to use the feathers. I am soooooo in LOVE with these new stamps! So here is my first try with the feathers.

The top one I stamped with Potter's Clay. The second was first stamped in blue, then overstamped in brown. And for the last one I used grey with some black on the feather tips. All were fussy cut.

I don't usually use so many layers so I struggled a little but it was fun! The patterned base is from a Bo Bunny Country Garden pad. The scalloped circle was stamped with a wreath from Rustic Branches which I colored with Copics. The little tag is a Milk & Cookies die stamped with sentiment and bird from Teeny Trees.

Hubby came up as I had everything out and asked me if I had enough stamps--lol!! Just shows how you need a variety from lots of companies to find the perfect thing you need!!

Thanks for taking a peek!

A Study in Beauty--Play Date Cafe Challenge #165

COLORS: Plum, Mustard, Rose

I was afraid I wasn't going to get this posted on time. I knew immediately I wanted to use this butterfly for this week's PDCC but had a bit of trouble with how to use mustard. Then after going through my 6x6 pads (I have a few!!), I found this paper from Bo Bunny! I've also had a package of these embellishments for ages so I was glad to finally be able to use one of them too.

The 'love' is a die cut from a WPlus9 Christmas set. Actually it was a pretty quick card to make once I decided to use the paper!

I've also gotten a little behind on visiting blogs. Hope to spend some time today!!

Happy Monday!

Serendipity Stamps Challenge #3--HAVE A HEART

THEME: HEARTS

There is a fairly new challenge out in blogland! Several of my sweet stamping friends are on the Design Team at Serendipity Stamps so you can always find their gorgeous work at the Challenge Blog. Take a minute to check out the rules. Marybeth (Marybeth's Time For Paper) just send me some of the wonderful images. I've been anxious to try them out and it also meant I could join this week's challenge--yeah!!! 

Isn't the heart gorgeous! I wanted to use it with this patterned paper from Bo Bunny so I cut it out and shaded the background using a Copic marker. The only pink felt I had was in bright colors so I used some Vintage Cream and then shaded the roses with the same Copic color. I think I LOVE this card!! And thank you so much, Marybeth! The heart was my inspiration!!

Thanks so much for letting me share,

Sharron
