Embellish Simply Amazing2 11.4.09

Hello there!!!!  This is my entry for Embellish Magazine’s challenge.  Oh how I love it.  This is by far my favorite (I think I say that every week).  But this really is.  I just love owls.  I have no clue how or when it started.  Well I take that back it started last year when I purchased my very first owl stamp from hero arts.  I have a ton now.  I just gravitate towards them.  Such cute little suckers!!!

On to the card…. I used a die cut I purchased earlier this year from twopeas.  Its a polaroid shape from quickutz.  I die I love this shape.  The stamp is from Unity KOTM the sentiment is by Ali Edwards.  I cut out the heart shaped eyes using felt and used embroidery floss to stitch around.  I wanted the eye to pop!!  Also the brown floss on the left was inspired by Sarah Martina.  Check out her card HERE.  Genius!!  Had to try it myself!!

Embellish2 Absolutely Fabulous2 10.25.09
Hello!!  I finally got to do some crafting yesterday.  I had a list of things I wanted to do and so far I got 50% of them done.  So this is my entry for the “Embellish the Cure” Challenge.  I absolutely loved this challenge.  I love the colors, the bling…it was just so fabulous!!

So lately I’ve been addicted to making my own embellishments.  For this one I used the Sizzix circle die cut to cut out the felt circles.  But it need some dimensions.  So I cut a slit on the circle and curled it over till it had a slight cone shape to it. Then I just added some rhinestone “bling” on the center.  I also finally got to  use my new Giga Guidelines stamp and embossed on the pink pirouette cardstock.  I found this to be slightly difficult . . .I couldn’t really see the image that good because I was using versa mark.  I wish it came with a giga grid too.  Nonetheless I still love how huge they are.

Lots of pictures below….gotta go for now and get some stuff done today.  I still have 2 more challenges to work.  Hope you guys are having a good weekend so far.
