#tgifc209


Welcome back & happy Friday!



It's time to be inspired by this weeks TGIF Challenge.

 Just in case your wondering what exactly is sepia anyway, here's what the inter web had to say about it...
A sepia tone is a reddish brown monochrome tint. When applied to a photo, it gives the picture a warm, antique feeling.


I love all things vintage so I was excited to give this challenge a try. 
Hopefully you will be inspired by the teams fabulous creations over @ tgifchallenges.com!

#tgifc208 - Piercing


Welcome Crafty Friends!

Today's TGIF challenge might be an oldie...

  
So perhaps you have some dust building up on your paper piercing tool 
but it's time to show it some love!

Take a look at how I used mine-


 This embossing folder is pretty great on it's own but how fun is it to take it up a notch!


Of course there are other ways to showcase piercing so make sure you head over to TGIFChallenges.com  to see what the Team has created for you!

Have a great day!

#tgifc207 Sketch


Hey Crafty Friends!
I'm happy to be back creating again since I embarked on "Operation Craftroom Clean Up", which you may have seen on my Instagram page...I'm still not done but I can see carpet & some desk space again so it's getting there. 

Wellll I  definitely needed a break so I grabbed my stash of images that I have colored with Stampin Blends & let it morph in to this card...


And as I write this up I remember that those leaves might possibly be from a retired stamp set sooo hope you got it when it was around. Lol! 
Totally have to tell you this flower from "Beautiful Day" is one of my favorite images to color with the Stampin Blends markers. It a perfect starter stamp set & with its bold lines it's so forgiving.

Alrighty well I hope you check out all the awesomeness over @ tgifchallenges.com & get inspired to play along!
