Imaginisce cards I made

If you missed it yesterday, I sent in my application for the Imaginisce DT call this past weekend. I have a few (3) cards that didn't make my final cut to get sent in. So for fun I thought I would share them here.

This one the purple and white papers weren't Imaginisce so this one was a no. **Technique**On the bigger label I dipped the side of an acrylic block in ink and "stamped it" on the label in rows to give it color and interest. The rows don't have to be perfect because most of it is being covered up anyway. Supplies: Imaginisce unless otherwise indicated; white paper by The Paper Co; purple paper by The Paper Studio; ink by Ranger and Stamp it; die cut by Spellbinder label 1.

This next card is all Imaginisce products except the card base but there are older products in this one. I'm not sure how older products are looked upon in DT calls. Do the people that have the newest lines with all the trimmings where they spent a ton of money, get looked upon with more likeness then those that aren't able to afford the latest and greatest? I don't know. So I didn't send this one in. Supplies: stamp by The Paper Co; ink by Ranger; card base by Recollections.

This last one there wasn't near enough Imaginisce product in it but it will be great for Cards for Kids. Supplies: cardstock unknown; embossing folder by Provo Craft; stamp by The Paper Co; ink by Ranger and Stampin Up; punch by Stampin Up; turquois paper by Print works.

Be sure to check out the Imaginisce blog from now until Christmas for some amazing projects and giveaways. It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas over there!!!

Christmas Cards all year Round and other stuff too

A new month brings a new challenge at Christmas Cards all year Round. This months challenge is to include either an image of santa or the word santa somewhere on your card. I have a few examples to show you. As I wrote this post out I realized I used a lot of older supplies. I must be getting ready for the holidays.

*Speaking of holidays, head over to the Imaginisce blog for some fabulous holiday giveaways. Wednesday was the 1st of December so the monthly sketch is up and you need to go blog hopping for your chance at a wonderful prize from Imaginisce. Winner will be announced December 6th so don't delay. Plus they are having something special going on with lots of special giveaways coming up. HEREs the link again for Imaginisce blog. Check back here tomorrow to see some Imaginisce projects that didn't make my cut for their DT call. I've got a handful of fun stuff to show.

**Another side note-Did you hear that Cards for Kids Round 4 has been extended to December 30th. You can send holiday cards in until the 16th of December. Get your cards in today. Warm a child's heart with a special card made just for them by you.

Now on with the cards.

 Supplies: card base and white cardstock (well it use to be white) by The Paper Co; gold and green cardstock along with the burgundy patterned paper and santa sticker are by Creative Memories; Burgundy cardstock unknown; flowers and leaf by Prima; brads old school that my MIL found in her desk; ink by Versamark, Stampin Up (I used a combination of Eggplant Envy/Burgundy/Real red to get the color to match the patterned paper) and Ranger; embossing powder by Stampendous; and spritz of Perfect Pearls by Ranger to glam up the sentiment.

I just love this card. Supplies: Santa paper by DCWV; red cs by Stampin Up; white cs by The Paper Co; Patterned paper by Provo Craft Slab from 2004! (Holy cow! That's old!) fiber is unknown; embossing folder by Provo Craft; stamp by Elle's Studio; inks by Stampin Up and Ranger.

 It is hard to see in the picture but the cream colored paper (that I don't know who makes it) has musical notes on it. It again is an oldie from my stash. It's original size was a 8 1/2 x 11. Haven't done that size in a while. Supplies: Sticker is unknown; hemp by Crafters Square; red paper by MME; silver paper by CM; border punch by SU; diecut by PC and ink by Ranger.

This paper is a little bit newer. Supplies: PP on the right is by Cosmo Cricket and on the left and in the middle is by Making Memories; sticker is unknown; diecut by PC; stamps by Fawn Lawn (love these letter stamps - they are the best), ink by Ranger and Close to my Heart, card base by Halcraft.

I sent this one in for Cards for Kids.

This last one I didn't turn in for DT but I did send it out for Cards for Kids. Supplies: PP by CM; embossing folder by PC; white cs by The Paper Co; card base by Halcraft.

So that's all for today. Come back tomorrow for some Imaginisce projects that I did.

I sent in my application for their DT and I thought it would be fun to show you what didn't make my cut. (or I didn't think it was 75% of their product.) Either way I made a bunch of stuff and would love to show you their great products at work. 

PS. Check out the Imaginisce Blog for the Dec 1st blog hop and sketch for your chance to win a wonderful prize. They are also doing some major prize giveaways due to the holidays so check them out for your chance to win.

So You are probably thinking what's so special about this card? Well all of the pieces to this card, except a few details, were donated to me for the Cards for Kids Drive. I think that is pretty awesome. Ladies from different scrapbook groups/crops have generously donated many diecuts, stickers, papers, etc for me to make cards to donate. Here is a close up of the snowflake.

Other supplies: Perfect pearls and ink by Ranger, brad unknown, stamp by Elle's Studio, cardstock by Sunborn and card base so generously donated by Halcraft.

Thanks for looking.

Fabric cards

My mom is cleaning out her sewing room and came across some great fabric for me to use on my cards. I made these two for Cards for Kids. That first one makes me mad because I couldn't get the crease out of the fabric. Anyway, Hope you like them. TFL

Football Card made with fabric for the Sketch-a-thon

So today is my day for a card sketch at Sketches for All as part of our Sketch-a-thon that's going on right now. The projects are worth a second point if you use a back-to-school or fall theme. And here's what I did with the sketch below.

So here's the sketch:

What screams fall more than football? I made this card for Cards for Kids by using football fabric as my background. My mom found some pieces of fabric for me to use. That football is an old Creative Memories die cut and I colored the white in with a gel pen. Super easy:)
