Spring Blog Hop

I learned about the Spring Blog Hop from Sketchy Thursdays. I'm glad I saw it coz I just discovered 5 other great challenge sites because of it: Practical Scrappers, Scrap that Poetry, The Cuttlebug Spot, Pile it On and 365 Cards!!!:) Check out more about this blog hop and head on to the first stop: Practical Scrappers!:)

So here's a card I did for some of these sites (plus a few others):

Challenges:

• Practical Scrappers - Glitter/Bling
• The Cuttlebug Spot - Glitter/Bling
• Pile it On - Say it with words!
• 365 Cards - Day 44 - White Space (sketch below - hope I did it right..;))
  

• Simply Scrapping Crafts - April 2010 weekly technique challenge - rolled paper embellishments
• Raise the Bar - Challenge#13 Let's Spring For It! (found this site thru Pile it On:))
  
• Cupcake Craft Challenges - Challenge 85...Make Your Own Flowers (also found this site thru Pile it On:)), and
  
• Sophisticat Challenges - Challenge#29 - So Distressing - flower: there is one layer of the "petals" that had distressing ink.. and if course the rough (crumpled) edges of each "petal" :)
  

It was definitely challenging for me!:) It's my first time to do that kind of flower that I used.. and also my first time with that rolled embellishment.. but enjoyed every minute of doing it!:)
Thanks for looking!:)

Cards, cards, cards!!

I have been pretty neglectful of my blogs lately! so many catching up to do.. Argh! so anyway, here are some of the cards I made for different challenges.. just wanna share them with you..:)

Here are a couple of the first few cards I made. I made them as for a sorta challenge at MAF*.. The hostess sent us materials to create things with, and these where the results for mine..:P

This one below if I am not mistaken was for a color challenge.. we were given a set of colors we could only use in our cards.:) I think it was at SSC*..:P

This one below is the first card I made where I actually won something!:P I got a digital stamp for a prize and I just love what I got!:) The challenge was called "Etch a Sketch" (at Creative Divas) where we just basically need to follow a sketch..:)

This is my favorite from all the cards I made so far..:P It's actually the first card I made which includes the inside.. and I just had a laugh doing the "message" of the card! Haha!! Oh, and the challenge for this one is also a color challenge at SSC*...

Thanks for looking!;)

Paper Piecing

This is my entry for Simply Scrapping's Wk2 Challenge: Any Way You Like It Paper Piecing.


Week 2 challenge at SSC is a Technique challenge, and this week, I learned about paper piecing! I sure enjoyed learning this technique, and might be using it in again the future, when I do have more stamps to use for this..;) But since I only have limited choices at the moment, I used my only stamp with "hollow" insides, which is a flower..:P Had a bit of a hard time cutting them out since they are small... but I liked how it turned out!:D I surely had fun doing this challenge!:)
