About Me

My photo
Hi, my name is Terri. My grandmothers taught me how to crochet and embroider on dish towels when I was a little girl, and that started my love of crafting. Over the years I tried different things but my favorite is still stamping and card making. And what makes it better now is that my 2 sisters like it also!! It's fun when we can get together and make cards!! I love learning new ideas and techniques and give hope to others to step out of their comfort zone and try a few new things. Thanks so much for stopping by....follow along if you'd like and see what we can create!!

PIP Challenge 2035

 

Welcome to PIP Challenge 2035 where this week we have a theme:  ORANGE.  I apologize for the colors in my card - they really are orange, but it's hard to see from the photo.  Our sponsor this week is The Cutting Cafe.  I chose this Post It Note Box to make.  It has a box and lid, plus a post it note cover and wrap.  It comes with various word selections to name each post it note pack.  A very clever and useful project!  Thanks so much to The Cutting Cafe for being such a great sponsor for us!!  Please visit our Challenge 2035 and see what the other design team members made.  Be sure to upload your creation for a chance to win a great prize from The Cutting Cafe.  Have a great week, and thanks so much for stopping by!

PIPChallenge 2034

 

Welcome to PIP Challenge 2034, an Anything Goes challenge, sponsored this week by StarStampz. Thank you very much to StarStampz for providing an image for the design team members to work with. I chose this adorable "Monster Under the Bed".  You can find all their awesome products at StarStampz. I colored the image with Copic markers and used matching papers from my stash.  I wasn't sure which sentiment to put on it, so that will be added later.  Please visit PIP Challenge 2034 to see some great inspiration from the other design team members and be sure to uplink your creation for a chance to win a prize from StarStampz.  Thanks for stopping by - it's always nice to see you!!

Tuesday Throwdown Challenge 463

 Hello and welcome to Tuesday Throwdown Challenge 463!  The theme for this challenge is "Use a Stencil", and our lovely sponsor is DRS Designs.  Please check out all their great designs at their website.  This image is called "Sailboat" and is so versatile and easy to work with.  I used CTMH inks and daubers to color in this Newton's Nook stencil ("Sunscape Stencil").  I fussy cut the sailboat image and added Spectrum Noir sparkle marker to the sails and water.  (The picture doesn't do it justice.)  I hope you will visit our Challenge 463 and upload your creation for a chance to win a nice prize from DRS Designs.  Thank you for stopping by!
