PAPER PIECING TECHNIQUE AT ROBYN'S FETISH

Robyn's Fetish Challenge #107 with Paper Piecing

Happy Mother's Day to everyone!! Suppose to have a cookout at my Grandma's but it's suppose to rain all day. I guess we will just have everything indoors. As long as I get to spend time with my Grandma, I will be happy. I do want to apologize for my short post last week. It was a very hard time for me because we had a death in the family. My grandmother wasn't doing well and that was very painful for me. I love my grandmother dearly. She has always been there for me and if my best friend. Enough of my sorrow, let's get to the great challenge this week.

I can honestly say that I had never done a paper piecing project. I did have a hard time with it but ended up with a great example for it. I think the hardest part was trying to get the pieces to fit where I had wanted them. It took me four times to finally get it. We used the digital stamps from Dearie Dolls Digi Stamps. My image that I used was called Mousey Girl Sunflower Sitter. I love sunflowers so this was the perfect image for me. So, let me tell you about the prize that a lucky winner will winner for this challenge.

5 Digital Stamps

of the Winner's Choice from the

Dearie Dolls Digi Stamps Store

I'm going to have two pictures for you to look at this week. The first will be the picture of my card and the second picture is a close up of the paper piecing that I did on the sunflower.

I hope you can see the different paper on the petals of the sunflower. That is where my paper piecing is. The other Designs did there own paper piecing so I would head on over to their blogs and see what they have done. Happy Mother's Day and I will see you next week for another great challenge.

FUNKY JARS TO FILL AT MY GRAFICO

MY GRAFICO'S FEATURE FOR THIS MONDAY

Hope your having a Wonderful Monday morning. I do apologize that this will be a straight to the feature blog.

The set that we are featuring this week is designed by Lindsay's Stamp Stuff. The name of her set is called Funky Jars to Fill. These are cute jars that had candy, marbles, and bubble gum. These jars reminded me of the jars we used when I was growing up when we canned almost everything we grew in our family garden. My Day made sure that our garden was big enough for all of use to eat and have enough to go through the winter. He still makes a little one for us to come over and pick through. He's a true country man.

Let me show you this terrific set

 

Remember you still have until May 11th to get your Mother's Day project in. Just remember to put it on the Robyn's Fetish Challenge Blog.

Here's the card that I made with this set. I call it Penny Candy. I went back in time to make this one. I hope you all remember when you could go into the General Store and get Penny Candy.

I hope you enjoyed this week's feature and next week we will have another challenge. Make sure you come back and see what you will be trying to win. Have a great week and see you next Monday.

BLUE, BUTTONS AND A BOW TOO AT ROBYN'S FETISH

ROBYN'S FETISH CHALLENGE #106

Good Morning!! I'm surprised I'm awake so early. So not me. Today, I will be going straight to the challenge. I hope you don't mind.

This week the Robyn's Fetish Design Team used digital stamps designed by Floppy Latte Designs. The image I chose was Pull Along Duck. Our theme was a fun one. I don't remember making what I think they call a recipe card. We had to use "Buttons, Blue and a Bow Too".

This was a fun combination to work with. I went with a light blue because of the duck. I can honestly say that I could not find number embellishments for this but did get the ABC's. So here is the great prize this week that you can win.

All I can tell you is that I have never done this type of card before. Please look at the other Design Team Blogs. They have great cards for this challenge too. Have a Wonderful Week!!

MOTHER'S DAY CHALLENGE AT MY GRAFICO

MY GRAFICO'S MONDAY CHALLENGE #127

Good Afternoon!! I'm a little late writing this but I slept in a little this morning.I had a very busy weekend running everywhere. The best part was I spent an afternoon with my granddaughter. Of course, I didn't put her down. She is so beautiful and little. I even fed her and watched her look around everywhere. She knows her daddy's voice because she turned her head to where he was standing. I could of stayed all day but I had more running to do. It was just precious holding her and watching her.

Enough about my fun weekend, let's get to our new challenge this week. We had two sets of images we could use this week by designers Cheri Wenger and Sarah Paris. Cheri Wenger's set was called Mom Stitched Verses and Sarah Paris was Mother's Day. I used one of the sentiments from Sarah Paris. It was hard to choose from all of them but I finally made it to one with my daughter's help. I'm now making another one for my mom for Mother's Day. Let me show you the set's

So here is the challenge for the next two weeks. Make a project about Mother's Day. This should be one of the easiest theme's we could have for the next two weeks. All projects are due May 11 until midnight. Place your prjects here at My Grafico Challenge Blog. The prize for this challene will be the set that we will feature next Monday. So make sure you come back to see what your playing for.

Welcome to another feature Monday with My Grafico. I really think you will like the feature that we have for you today. The design team has worked very hard to show you what you can do with the set we used. The designer that we used for this feature is Baby Star Designs. The set was called Love, Trees, and Friends. There was so many possibilities that you could do with this set. I ended up doing a card named In Love. I was a little busy this week with having a new grand daughter named Remie Faith. My son looks so happy but that little girl is going to have him wrapped around his little finger. That's the way my daughter is with her father.

Let me show you the set that we were able to play with this week.

The little quotes were enough for me to make my card. I hope you can see the potential with this set.

Remember that you have one more week to enter the challenge on Fun and Games. You have until April 27th until midnight. I'm sure you all have great projects for this theme. Please enter your projects at My Grafico Challenge Blog.

PASTEL CHALLENGE WITH ROBYN'S FETISH CHALLENGE BLOG

ROBYN'S FETISH CHALLENGE #104

Welcome to another Sunday Challenge with Robyn's Fetish Challenge. It's cold and cloudy here. Not very fun. I was actually in a craft fair yesterday and today in a big building with not heat. It was in the 40's and I froze all day. I see a cold coming on. Believe it or not there was people coming in to look and I sold stuff but don't know if it was worth sitting it the cold all day. I think I will relax all day tomorrow just to recover from the weekend. The only thing that I missed this weekend was my grand daughter coming home and seeing her. She is so precious and my grandson is very protective of her. He won't let the other sister's get near her. He's going to be a great big brother. Enough about me. How about getting to the challenge for this week.

The theme for this week is use pastels only. Look at all the spring time colors you can use for this challenge. I love the theme for this week. It was fun to use pastels. This week we had our images from the designer Heart Song Designs. The images were great. I made one with Theadore Tulip. He's a very cute little bunny and it was fun to work with. Here is the prize to one of our lucky challengers.

3 Digital Images

Of The Winners Choice from

Heart Song Designs Store

So here is the card with all pastels.

I hope you enjoyed the card. I love the ribbon I found with the tulips. I think it went well nicely. Now to a close for this post. I hope to see you all enter your pastel cards and I will see you next week. Good Luck to you all.
