Sparkle Creations #82 challenge {post1}

Hello, friends:}

**Please click HERE or scroll up/down for my Paper and Such challenge post!

I've created a fun card for the new Sparkle Creations Rubber Stamps challenge #82--beach theme! For more information on this challenge, click HERE! 

I had to pull out my new Paradise Beach papers by Echo Park {available HERE from StopandScrap.com} for my card. It was the perfect match for my SCRS Surfing Oliver image! The waves were cut with my SCAL program. LOVE this card--totally makes me wish it wasn't raining out so I could head to the beach!

That's it for me today! Be sure to stop by the SCRS blog for more details and to see the rest of the team's amazing creations!

**Yes, the rumors are AGAIN true! This is my last post as a Sparkle Creations Rubber Stamps design team member. I am thankful that I was able to join in the fun for the last six months. I am also thankful that I was able to meet Sparkle earlier this year--she is the SWEETEST! LOVE her to pieces! I also love this team--so many talented women! They've got mad coloring skills! SUPER jealous:) And I've got to be honest--I was extremely nervous about joining the team since I don't color! And it might have taken me about three hours per image to paper piece--but each one was totally worth it! LOVE x10! THANKS so much, Sparkle and SCRS team! 

Thanks so much for stopping by--I can't wait to see what you make for this challenge! Be blessed:}

Sparkle Creations Rubber Stamps #80 challenge

Hello, friends:}

I've created another fun card for the new Sparkle Creations Rubber Stamps challenge #80--a photo inspiration! For more information on this challenge, click HERE! 

I love decorative umbrellas--only because 1) I have to cover my face/skin with one while out in the sun and 2) we just bought the coolest beach umbrella. So I guess you know what I was inspired by for my card:) I was kind of inspired by the teal blue color....I used my My Little Shoebox papers with my Rainy Day Ruby SCRS image. LOOOOOOOVE how this card turned out! I cannot take credit for the sketch/design--I used the Retro Sketch #13 as my inspiration {and YES! I followed the sketch!}.

I used a clear fine glitter for the raindrops--SO pretty in the light (but not in the pic! LOL!).

That's it for me today! Be sure to stop by the SCRS blog for more details and to see the rest of the team's amazing creations!
