THEME THURSDAY - PATTERN PAPER

My ATC for Theme Thursday has an image from B-line Designs, some ivory lace, stamped sentiment, and pearl accents.  The pearls look more like gems in the scan, but they are white pearls.  Paper is from JoAnn's - I like the fleur-de-lis shapes on it and the blue/cream colors. 

Thanks for looking!

FRUIT

TMTA has fruit for its theme this week.

Used some distress inks and gold leafing flakes for the background.  Love this Stampers Anonymous pear.  Polka dot ribbon and gold edges finished it off!

Thanks for looking!

CRACKLE

SUNDAY POSTCARD ART theme this week is crackle.  Another old flashcard with a crackle stamped background and some more rubber stamps to accent the vintage image.  Love that big bow in her hair!

PAPERLESS

This is the last day to get my tag in for Louise's Tag Tuesday paperless theme.  She did say we could use cardboard, so I brushed gesso over corrugated cardboard and then wrapped some twine around it.  Added snowflake stickers and a metal word.  Big white brad through the hole with another snowflake sticker on it.  Some green Stickles glitter around the edges.  Quite a challenge, Louise, but a fun one!

FOUR IN ONE

Since I have been unable to take part in the challenges this week until today, I have combined four challenges in one card:

TMTA:  brown
One Stop:  script
Theme Thursday:  borders
Art Creations Friday:  image

This little guy is so cute and it was fun to use him for all four challenges.

Thanks for looking!

INCHIES SAMPLER

Here is a sampler of some inchies I made when they first started showing up in the magazines and online.  I didn't stamp any of them - just used cut out images and a couple of photos, plus some tiny embellishments, cut out words and pen dots, etc.  Mounted them on a piece of cardstock and have them displayed on my bulletin board in my studio.  Fun to do; should do some more!!

On another note - Lynn Stevens is having a blogaversary party on her blog:  http://www.trashtotreasureart.blogspot.com/.  Check out the cool presents she will be giving away!!

Off to work today - maybe tomorrow I will finally have time to take part in some of this week's challenges!  Thanks for coming over!

THIS AND THAT

This is a card for a friend - she has a thing for butterflies.  I like this Stampers Anonymous stamp.  Used some coordinating papers and my cuttlebug to make a quick and easy card.  There is glitter here and there on the butterfly which does not show up on the scan.  Thanks for visiting!!
