ROBYN'S FETISH CHALLENGE # 348 "ANYTHING GOES"

Happy Holidays!! I'm writing this ahead of time because I will actually have all my kids home for Christmas. I wanted to spend every moment I could with them but still wanted you to read my blog with this great challenge that everyone loves. "Anything Goes" I hope you are enjoying your day also.

Our very own Robyn's will be hosting our "Anything Goes" challenge this week. You can find her store at The Robyn's Fetish Digital Stamps and More to see all her beautiful images that she has. The image that I used today is called "Stevie The Snowman." He is so adorable that I have three of him on my card. I know I always make a scrapbook layout but just couldn't find any pictures of my kids in the snow. Now let's see what Robyn will be giving our lucky winner.

So here is "Stevie the Snowman"

I thought it turned out to be a great winter card. You don't necessarily have to use it as a Christmas card. I love the papers I found since the snowmen look like they may be sledding down a hill. The hill is glittered paper that I made the hills out of. I colored the snowmen and added the embellishments. Was a real easy make. Here is the items that I did use.

ROBYN'S FETISH CHALLENGE #347 "ADD A BELL"

Good Morning!! I hope you are starting to begin your holiday festivities. I finally have my tree up and now I'm starting to wrap gifts. Very busy week for me coming up. I hope I can get it done a little early so I can relax before our Christmas dinner. On to the challenge at hand.

Sherri Baldy Designs is our sponsor for this week's challenge of "Add A Bell." There are two places you can find her work. First is Sherri Baldy Designs and then Scrapbook Stamp Society. I just love these images because they have the big eyes on the girls. I don't know what it is about these eyes but I just love them. You really need and look at both of her stores. She has a lot of great images. She let me choose the image "Image 815, Gingerbread Girl." I did have a lot of fun coloring her and making this card. I'm excited to show you but I need to let you know what she will be giving to one of our lucky winner's. 

The 3 Digital Stamps

That Our

Design Team Used

You will see the three different images on The Robyn's Fetish Challenge Blog that our Design Team used. Remember this little cutie will be one of the images. Let's see here.

I hope you like this. I have noticed that Christmas Cards are starting to use different colors besides the traditional ones. I had this pink paper in my stash for awhile and decided to use it and make the gingerbread girl dressed in pink. So all the items I used was in my scrapbooking room from times that I just picked something up on one of my shopping trips. You can use any colors you want to make this.

I want to Thank You again for reading my post and hoping that you get inspiration from the card that I made. Have a Wonderful Week!!

ROBYN'S FETISH CHALLENGE # 345 "SQUARE OR RECTANGLE CARDS"

Hello To All!! Hope you had a great first couple of days of December. It was great here. My husband surprised me with a gift this week of going out of town for a night to get away from reality. While we were there he had another surprise gift. A beautiful bracelet that has I with a Heart and U and between each time it's repeated there is an infinity sign in between. It's also the start of Christmas shopping and I did get some this week. My husband even spent Friday with me shopping for gifts. Thank You Tony and Happy Anniversary!!



Here is our sponsor this week with a very catchy name. My Stitch Back In Twine. This is a great etsy store to go and look through the images. She also has Pre-Colored images and some images for steampunk which is popular now. The image that I used from this store is, "Underland Caterpillar." This is an adorable Caterpillar that sits on a mushroom. The face is what caught my eye. Here is what they are giving to one lucky winner this week.

Here is "Underland Caterpillar"

Is she not a cute caterpillar? So, since she was sitting on a mushroom, I had found this paper in my stash with the other mushrooms and thought it would be a perfect fit. There were little butterflies around the mushrooms so I put some butterflies around the caterpillar. We had to make square or rectangle cards so mine is square. 5 x 5 inches. Here is the few items that I made this cute card with.

ROBYN'S FETISH CHALLENGE # 344 "STRIPES OR DOTS"

Hello!! Welcome to my blog today. Hope is all well with you. I hope you have a Wonderful Thanksgiving with your family and friends. I actually had all three of my children home for dinner. It's very seldom that they are here all at once. We all actually sat and watched a movie together before my one son had to leave to get his daughter. This was a memorable holiday.

As you can see from up above Limited Runs Digital Stamps is our sponsor for this week's challenge. She has a Wonderful blog and for the month of December she will be having specials on her stamps. Just check in every couple of days. She let me use this cute image called, "Christmas Tree Cupcake." I love cupcakes and Christmas also, so this was a great image to work with. My picture didn't turn out the best but the tree has shading on it. It's just really hard to tell. Let me tell you about the prize Limited Runs Digital Stamps is giving to one lucky winner.

I try to name all my cards so this one is "Sweet Christmas."

I hope you enjoyed my yummy cupcake. I thought the candies looked great with the image. We do get all these sweets at Christmas time. Here is how I put this card together. I found this piece of paper that had both stripes and dots so I thought it would be perfect. Added red and green cardstock in different ways to focus on the image I was using. Added the image I colored and glittered. Last but not least, added the bright candy suckers and candies. It was very easy once I had the sketch done. Here are the items I used.

ROBYN'S FETISH CHALLENGE # 343 "LACE AND GEMS"

Hello Everyone!! Well, we are officially in the cold  winter weather here. I'm loving the cold. I always have and probably always will. The sleet and flurries was great to see. Can't wait to see one big snow storm. 

You will like our sponsor this week. It is Star Stampz which is also called Star In My Pocket. The category that I love is the one called "Storybook And Fantasy." This is where I used an image of hers called, "Sleeping Beauty." She is absolutely beautiful just sleeping in her bed. So, when I went looking for things to make my card, I had way more than I was going to use. I just wanted to do it justice. Let me tell you the prize that Star Stampz will be giving before I show you my card.

Here is my card that I did name "Sleeping Beauty."

I have to say that I love this card. My grand daughter loves the Disney Princesses and this will be a beautiful card for her birthday. I'm hoping my son will keep it for her to look at when she gets older. These cards do take a lot of time to make. You can't see it but the purple paper has crowns and the saying, "Beautiful Princess." You can see it on the back. Made the frame with my Big Shot and a stencil to make the oval around the picture. Surrounded the oval with the lace and gems. Lastly I added the flowers that looked the best together. Here is where the items I used to make this card came from.

ROBYN'S FETISH CHALLENGE # 341 "MORE THAN ONE BUTTON"

Hello to Everyone!! Hope your having a good start to your day. I can't believe today is the start of Day Light savings time. I don't know if you have to set your clocks back but here in Ohio we have to. I'm not looking forward to it being dark at 5 and 6 O'clock. It always takes me a week at least to get my body to adjust to the change and my morning routine. Well, let's see who our sponsor is this week and tell you about them.

Oddball Art Co. is our wonderful sponsor for this week's challenge. They have a really neat etsy store that has images from the very cute to the very creepy. They are all adorable and I loved working with the one I did. Oddball Art Co. let me use their digital image called "Tasha." She is a very adorable fairy reaching out to a Dragonfly. I'm excited to show you my card, so let me tell you the prize for this week's challenge of "Add More Than One Button."

Oddball Art Co.

Here is my card with "Tasha."

Is that image not adorable. I made a fancy cut on the side of the paper I printed the fairy on. I decided to use all white flowers to match the white flowers on the background paper that I used. I put white and gold buttons on the flowers to add some color but not to much. I glittered her wings and put some glitter on the flowers which is hard to see in the picture. Then added three cute little fairies which also came with glitter on their wings. I think it all fit together and is very cute. Here are the items that I used to make my card.

ROBYN'S FETISH CHALLENGE #337 "NATURE"

Hello to everyone who is here today. Hope all is well with you. It's been a busy week here. There was extra stuff to do because something broke or wasn't put in right. (My Son's Fault) Lots of cleaning up and then fixing it. Just isn't the week I had planned. I did plan what I was going to do everyday and I only finished Monday and Tuesday's work. Enough of me, here is our sponsor.

Pickled Potpourri is our sponsor for out "Nature" challenge. They have Digital Stamps for almost every occasion possible. They are very delicate and beautiful. You really need to check this sponsor's store. Since our challenge was for "Nature." I had the pleasure of using her digital stamp called "Beehive," So before I show you what I did with the beehive, let me share with you what they will be giving our lucky winner.

Now here is "Beehive"

I hope you like the card. I had so much fun coloring the beehive. My mother-in-law actually had a huge one in one of her bushes that a bee keeper had to come and get it out. More honey for him. I didn't want just a yellow beehive. So since I seen the beehive and the way it looked in the bushes, I took the look from it to try and make it look like that one. I had bee paper from a Pooh collection and used it. Then I added the two beehives and all the bee's. I really think that it turned out really cute. Here is the short list of items I used.

ROBYN'S FETISH CHALLENGE # 336 "SQUARE CARDS"

Hope everyone is having a good weekend. Mine has been busy and I won't be getting a break today. It started out that we were to move some of my husband's mother things out of her house and put in storage. But my son , who lives with her, decided that he was going to move out Saturday. Big mess!! Now, oldest son decided to move today. Of all weekend's for my boys to move it just left me and my husband to move his mom's stuff alone. I'm not use to all of this work. Monday can't come fast enough.

Our great sponsor this week is Dragonsmoore, Spyder's Other Corner. I was grateful that I was given the image "Toadie's Hall." This mushroom house is so cute with the frog sitting on top of it. I have to say the frog is the most cutest part of the image but the whole image is adorable. The prize that they are giving to someone this week is

This is a really nice prize that they are giving. 

I really hope that you like this card. I really had fun making it. I loved working with the frogs. They are adorable.I know this is a mushroom but looks like the bottom of a tree. So that's why I colored it two different colors. I added the other frogs on places where there was lily pads and I made the little squares across the bottom so I could add some more frogs. This paper was perfect for this card. It took me awhile to find it because I hadn't seen it for awhile but I did find it. Here is my list of items I used.

I would love to hear from you. Need to go. I hope you all have a wonderful week!!

ROBYN'S FETISH CHALLENGE # 333 "PUPPY LOVE - MUST HAVE A DOG OR A PUPPY ON THE CARD"

Good Morning!! I'm back to tell you about the challenge of the week. This was a great theme to have. Who can not make a cute card with a puppy? My daughter brought home a puppy a month ago and she is cute but she will grow up. I wonder if she will think it's all fun when she reaches to her adulthood. I have been teaching the dog to go out and my daughter not so much. She did say she didn't realize how hard it was going to be. Wish she would of listened to her parents because this is starting to look like it's going to be my responsibility. Look who is our sponsor this week.

All Dressed Up Stamps is this weeks sponsor. I would like to thank them for the image that they let me use for my card this week. The image's name is "My Best Friend." All Dressed Up Stamps have the cutest images. They have over one hundred stamps in their store. This cute image is a little girl walking her cute little puppy. 

The winner will receive the following for winning our challenge

Since this was suppose to be a card with a puppy. My image already had a cute little one with it so I made a puppy paw print on the front of the card. I colored the image and put it on the paw and then made the rest of the paw with brown paper and buttons to give it more of the puppy paw look. This was also a simple little card but I had a lot of fun with it. There is a verse on the inside to give this card to a new puppy owner. Here are the items I used: 

Cardstock -- DCWV & The Paper Studio

Font -- She Always Walk Alone

Buttons -- My Button Bucket

Colored Markers 

Colored Pencils

I hope to see all the cards with your puppies on them. Just go to Robyn's Fetish Challenge Blog and enter those cute little puppies you have. Also, look at what the design team made with their puppies. A lot of inspiration there. Well, that's it from me this week. Enjoy what's left of today and tomorrow.

ROBYN'S FETISH CHALLENGE # 332 "FOOD OR DRINK"

Hello To You All!! Hope the weather is nice where you are. We had a great couple of days that were really nice and no rain. I hope it will be like this next week. We are having a bonfire for our daughter and her friends for her birthday. She turns 17 Wednesday and is making me feel real old. We are actually talking about colleges already. She will be in a program her senior year where they will pay for so many credits at a college. It's starting to be a reality now.

The Robyn's Fetish Challenge Blog is our sponsor for this week. We are very glad that she let's us use her images to do our projects with. Robyn has many images in her store that I just love. When she gets new ones in I can't wait to use them. Here is one of my favorites "Wedding Cake." Long story but I eloped with my husband when we were very young so this cake is colored the way our flowers were. Just had to use these pictures I just found.

As you can see, I made a Scrapbook Layout. First, I need to tell you about what Robyn is giving for a prize this week.

The Robyn's Fetish Digital Stamps & More Store

Here is the layout that I made this week. I called it "Wedding Day." We eloped back in 1991. Again, Long story. I used a Specialty Paper for the background and the background behind the pictures. This paper is really tricky to work with. They are not a regular cardstock and the paper stretches. I wish I would have known this before I used this paper. Trying to get things to stick to it was definitely hard. I used the wedding cake and cut off the flowers at the bottom of the image. I used pop up dots to make it a little dimensional. Used a border with flowers and rhinestones. Then added all the embellishments to the page. I think it turned out really pretty. It did bring back great memories from then. Here's where everything came from.

ROBYN'S FETISH CHALLENGE # 331 "ANYTHING GOES"

It's me again to tell you about another challenge that The Robyn's Fetish Challenge Blog is having this week. Anything goes is everyone's favorite. You can add any project to win this week. Either it be a card, scrapbook layout, bookmark or any other idea you come up with for your entry. Just have fun with what ever you do. 

We have another great sponsor for this week's challenge. It is A Creative Need Digital Stamps. This is an etsy store that has a variety of different stamps for you to choose from. With the card that I made this week, she was generous to let me use the stamp "Cottage Window." I seen the window and thought about the cottages that sit back in the woods where no one can see them. I wanted to make a scrapbook layout that I usually do when we do "Anything Goes" but could not think of how to do it so here is the card I decided on. 

That's my card made with "Cottage Window." I want to let you know (before I tell you how I made the card) what the prize from A Creative Need Digital Stamps will be giving.

Winner's Choice

3 Digital Stamps

You can get this window if you participate. So, here is how I made this cute card. I told you that I thought cottages were way back in the woods, so I found this paper of limbs of pine trees. I then made different shapes with the paper and colored the cottage window. Pretty easy. It did take more time then you would think though. Not much but here is what I used.

I told you it was a short list. I just couldn't find any embellishments that went with it. I do wish there was more on it. It's not like me to make something simple. Robyn's Fetish Challenge Blog is where you can add your project and see all the fabulous things that the other design team members have made. This is a great place to enter a challenge. Hope to see yours here. Enjoy the week ahead and the beginning of September. 

ROBYN'S FETISH CHALLENGE # 330 "CARD FOR MEN OR BOYS"

Hello on this glorious morning. Today, my husband and I are going to go and get his mother. She is going to make a brief stay up here until she gets the rest of her things packed. She just needs to get out of the house for some down time and she is not getting it there. That's because my son is living at her house and giving her grief. He will be renting the house after she moves out. I have lived with him for 23 years so I know how he can get on someones nerves.

We have Lacy Sunshine as our Sponsor for this week's challenge. Lacy Sunshine has sponsored several of our challenges and has the cutest images for you to look and chose from. She let me use her image called, "Larry Gnome - Surf's Up." He is absolutely adorable standing in the sand with is surf board in hand. Here he is with the card I made with him.

I think he turned out adorable. Here is what Lacy Sunshine is giving as her prize for this week.

I loved this Gnome and thought it would be great image to make something of. I found this piece of paper of the water coming onto the sand. A perfect place for Larry to be. Since he was on sand and some water, I decided to add seashells. Added some more embellishments and made the sentiment. My favorite part of that sentiment is how I made the word "Waves" look like they are waves with the blue in the water. Here is what I used to make this simple card.

ROBYN'S FETISH CHALLENGE # 329 "GLITTER AND A BOW"

Hello to everyone!! Hope is all well with you today. I can honestly say that I had one great weekend. My grandson Hayden spent the whole weekend here. We played a lot which I'm starting to get old sitting on the floor. We took him school shopping. We have always bought his shoes since he was born. Had some take out food and watched these cartoons that was kind of weird from the ones I watched when I was little. It's Wonderful to be a Grandma!!

Toadstool Printables is our wonderful sponsor this week. Joyce has a great etsy store for you to see with a wide variety of different items. I was lucky that I was allowed to use her printable "Gnomes With Cardinal." Very cute image with the beautiful cardinal and cute little gnomes sitting in leaves. I used a piece of chipboard that has the word "Autumn" so that's what I call this card. Let's have a look;

Here is how I made my card this week. The first thing I did was color the image to see what colors I could use and find paper to match. We had to add a bow and I can honestly tell you that for some reason I just could not make one that looked good. I didn't feel right to just add a bought bow for it. So, I finally made this and put a gold glitter leaf on the middle. Then used many different Autumn flowers that are glittered and put them together with a dark orange leaf. I wanted to put the word Autumn on it but didn't want more white on the card. I was lucky and found this in a tote full of chipboard. Used Items:

Cardboard -- Close To My Heart

Paper -- DCWV

Handmade Bow -- Offrey Ribbon

Glittered Flowers --  Autumn Flowers From My Autumn Stash

ROBYN'S FETISH CHALLENGE # 327 "FAIRIES"

Hello to everyone!! Hope you had a fabulous week. Really hot here so I had to stay in most of the time. Due to a medication that I take, I can't be in direct sunlight and when I get to hot now I immediately get real sick. I use to love being outside and doing things. But if you need it to help you. You have to deal with the side effects. Let's get to this great challenge. I had so much fun with it.

This is a new sponsor we have here. Her name is Nikki Burnette and she owns The Fantasy Art Of Nikki Burnette. Her store is amazing. I'm so lucky that she let me use the image "Cheyanna Autumn Fairy." Cheyanna is a fairy that is sitting in the woods with four foxes and some butterflies. I have to say that she has talent and she lives just an 1 1/2 hours from me. I would love to take lessons from her. So here is the card I call "Forest Fairy."

Is that the prettiest fairy. I am in love with this image. Her prize that she is giving out is

I really hope you find some inspiration in her. I tried a new fold called the "Twisted Easel Fold" which really wasn't that hard to do. I watched a few tutorials until I learned the technique. It is actually easier then I thought. It took me a long time to color the fairy. More time then I ever thought I would spend on one image. But she is totally worth it. I put crystal glitter glue at the bottom for the water and added a quote. Last I added wooden butterflies to the card. Here is where everything came from

ROBYN'S FETISH CHALLENGE # 320 "CHILDREN AT PLAY"

Good Day to everyone no matter what time it is when you are reading this post. Hope you had a great weekend. I have been putting the finishing touches on the room that my husband and I remodeled to put my scrapbooking stuff and other crafts that I work on. It's not as big as I really need but my mother-in-law is moving in with us and she will be taking my big room I was going to use. You have to do things differently when it comes to family. I do have more things to do on the room but I need to get everything out of the other room because she is moving in at the end of the month. Now I'm going to move along to our new challenge of the week.

Our sponsor for this week's challenge is A Day For Daisies. I would like to show you the card with the image "Wall Art" that I used from A Day For Daisies Store. I call it "The Writing Is On The Wall."

A Day For Daisies is giving the winner of this weeks challenge "Children At Play" projects this prize.

I really found this image adorable. I remember my children when they were little writing on the walls of their room. Couldn't just wash it off. Some of it had to be painted over. I was grateful when they grew out of this stage. Since this was obviously a toddler I wanted it to be a Birthday Card from the toddler to his mommy. I colored the wall to make it look like a wall that a toddler drew on. I made the mistakes on purpose. Since he was using crayons I found this great paper and had embellishments to go perfect with it. I tried to find a teddy bear that a toddler would carry but I couldn't so I just put a cat that sits beside him. I found this great font that kind of looked like a child's writing. I really think it turned out great. I hope you do also. Here are the items I used.

ROBYN'S FETISH CHALLENGE # 319 "BABY CARDS"

Hello Everyone!! It's been since January since I last posted anything. I do apologize for the quick disappearance. I just wanted to say that it was a life changing experience and would not wish it on anyone. Stay close to your family and friends. You never know what will happen to them one day when it comes out of no where. So with that said, here is this week's challenge with "Baby Cards."

I want to show you my card that I made with the image from Robyn's Fetish Digital Stamps And More. His name is Peapod Patrick and here he is. 

The winner of this challenge will receive 

3 Digital Images

From

Robyn's Fetish Digital Stamps and More

Since pea-pods are grown from vines I wanted to add some vines into the card. So, I used a punch that I had found called "Blooming Vines" by Martha Stewart. I made two frames from this punch. The one on the outside and there is one behind Patrick. After putting this together I wish I would have made the little one with a different color or stamped around the edges. (HINT: Those are two things that you may want to try.) There are flowers on the edges so I put pearls on the little frame to make the flowers stand out a little more. The background paper has little mice on it which they are very cute to. Then I colored the image to match all the papers with the card. I put blue on him just to make him stand out more because this was the image I was using. Let me give you the list of items that I used.

ROBYN'S FETISH CHALLENGE #290 "WET OR DRY EMBOSSING"

Hope everyone is having a happy morning. I've been fighting a sinus infection but I get them every time the weather changes. I wish I knew why but this has been happening for years. The only good thing that happen this weekend is that I kept my grand kids for the weekend. They wanted to play with their aunt and uncle more than us. It was nice to just watch them. They grow up to fast. The one funny thing was when we were on our way home they kept talking about banana's. Finally, I did ask them what they were talking about and it was funny. They thought the moon looked like a banana and found it funny. The things they think of and amuse their selves with. 

Let's get to the challenge which I chose to use the dry embossing. I can be honest and say I have not tried wet embossing. It is something that I need to learn though. I was so lucky this week to use and image from Aurorawings. The image is called, "Sea Turtle Kiss." Beautiful little girl underwater with her turtles. I have to honestly say that I have bought many of Mitzi's images. They are beautiful and fun to color. Every once in awhile she will sell one of her new coloring books. Something you may want to watch for. So, Thank You Mitzi for letting me use this beautiful image. Mitzi is giving this to a lucky winner.

Let's see the card that I made with "Sea Turtle Kisses."

See, she is very beautiful. I took some leaves and used glue dots to keep them together to make is look like seaweed. Found these turtles inside a button and took them apart to add some more of them. Then I added the bubbles to make it look like they are breathing coming up. You can't see the background paper that good but it is the same pattern as the embossing on this card. Now let me tell you where I bought everything.
