RCC46-Anything Goes with Party Time Tuesday

Hello, friends:}

This week, the Ribbon Carousel Challenge is ANYTHING GOES--one of our favorite challenges!!

This week The Ribbon Carousel is sponsoring the Party Time Tuesdays. Join them for your chance to win a $10 gift certificate from The RCC.


This week I created a super girly birthday card. I love these papers by Sassafrass--and these images and sentiments by Paper Smooches are some of my FAVS!!! The twine is available HERE from the RCC. LOOOOVE how adding this twine has made that tag really pop! LOVE:)

The RCC team would love for you to join in the fun this week! Here are the details:

• Make your NEW creation following the ribbon carousel challenge (sketch, inspiration, style or color) image. Be sure to include some type of ribbon, twine, hemp, lace....basically, anything that comes on a spool.
• Your creation can be ANYTHING from cards, quilts, sewn items, paper crafts, paintings! ***Be sure to have ribbon, bakers twine, jute twine, lace, thread (basically anything that comes on a spool) on your creation! And be sure to follow the RCC challenge theme!
• Load your creation up onto your blog or a public viewing forum like SplitcoastStampers, (use the keyword RCC46) with a direct link back to The RCC blog post. Including the challenge graphic isn't a requirement, but sure is appreciated! A participant of our very first challenge didn't link back or mention our challenge and couldn't be named Top Spool, so don't let that happen to you!
• Come back to The RCC blog post and link in your creation using the Inlinkz button at the bottom of this post. Your image may take a little while to pop up but don't worry it will appear shortly.
• Be sure to come back the Friday after the challenge ends to see if YOU are a Top Spool! :D

This challenge will end on April 2ND at 11:59pm EST.

Please head over to The Ribbon Carousel website and check out their products!!! I just love THIS link on their site--it's shows all the NEW items! LOVE! 

Thanks so much for stopping by! Be blessed:}

Paper Smooches SPARKS challenge {12.29- 1.11}

Hello, friends:} 

Today we start another photo inspired challenge over at Paper Smooches SPARKS blog. 

I just love this inspirational photo/sentiment! I decided to make two cards for this week's challenge. For my first card....I was inspired by the rainbow colors. I know, I know--I'm always trying to think outside the box:) I used some of my old Jillibean Soup {Sesame Oil} and Echo Park {Sunshine} papers for the background. I added some sunshine rays using my Sassafras Marmalade paper. I stamped the  clouds from the Paper Smooches Forest Whimsy set. The sun and his glasses are from the PS Sunny Side Up set. I added the sentiment from the PS Word Salad set. Super fun--LOVE that sun and his grin!!! 

This picture shows the card and dimension better:)

For my second card...I was inspired by the quote. I thought it would be different to make a card that "encouraged". The sentiment is stamped using the PS Alpha Dots stamp set. Hope is a stamp from the PS Hope set. I used some of my new papers from Crate Paper. And that ribbon--SO LUSH! It's available HERE from The Ribbon Carousel. LOVE!!!

I know you can't really tell in these photos, but it was stamped in hot pink and then I used a glaze pen over it. It looks so pretty in person! OY! 

That's it for me today--but be sure to stop by the other Paper Smooches SPARKS DT members' blogs and leave them some love.
