Tuesday Trigger: In Transition

I'm entering Moxie Fab World's Tuesday Trigger just under the wire.
I took advantage of the two week deadline and found a PTI stamp set
that I bought a while ago but never inked up. Until now.

Here's the Trigger.
 

And here's my card.
 
 
I focused on the stripes and overlapping colors. Banners speak "celebration"
so I chose the sentiment from Fresh Squeezed Stamps
and finished off the card with some sequins.
 
I'm pretty happy with how this turned out. And I do love a two week Trigger!
Thanks so much for stopping by.

CAS(E) this Sketch 46

Here's Sketch #46 from former teammate, Karolyn Loncon.


And here's my take on it.


I was going for a chalkboard effect and white embossed the Avery Elle frame
and fun sentiment then added some sponging of white pigment ink
for the "chalky" look.

Visit CAS(E) this Sketch to see how my teammates
interpreted the sketch and join us if you can.
You have until Thursday, September 26 to link up your card.

Thanks so much for stopping by!

Avery Elle's Happy Camper

Today I'm sharing a card using Avery Elle's Happy Camper, 
a delightful set with a camping theme, woodland critters and fun sentiments.


Here's my card.


I created a little scene from the sky to the lake and a forest in between.
I popped up the adorable fox and canoe, and couldn't resist
adding the punny sentiment in a speech bubble die.

Thanks for stopping by and don't forget to visit my teammie
Nina's blog and see her fab card using Written in the Stars.

Oh Deer Me, It's a Giveaway!

The lovely folks at Freckled Fawn sent me some embellishments from the
Oh Deer Me September Kit and they're offering a $20 gift certificate
to one lucky commenter.

First, here's some info about their Kit Club:

The OHDEERME Embellishment Kit Club is the perfect kit for crafters who want to use up
their personal paper stash. Each month, Freckled Fawn designs and manufactures 
a collection of coordinating embellishments. You will receive a tin filled with enough embellishments 
to inspire you as you create dozens of lovely projects!

With the OHDEERME embellishments in hand, browsing your personal paper stash
each month will become an exciting endeavor as you preserve your memories,
fashion a card for just the right occasion, or add flair to a gift for a special person.


Here are the goodies in the September Kit:



I admit to being "embellishment challenged" but couldn't resist using
some of the fun embellishments from the kit.


Can you spot the three embellishments that I used?


Yep, a wood veneer frame, fabric brad, and metal flower.
The metal flower is ultra light in weight and comes with a pearl center,
but I jazzed it up with a striped fabric brad.

The gift certificate can be used towards a subscription to the Kit Club
or you can use it to shop for Freckled Fawn products here.

Simply leave me a comment by Sunday, September 15th, telling me what's
your favorite embellishment. I'll choose a commenter and announce the winner
on Tuesday, September 17th. And help spread the word
to your crafty friends--international ones, too!
