TSG168 Just because

This week our challenge at There She Goes is brought to us by our Trendsetter of the week, Sandra! She is challenging YOU to make a card or project using a sentiment as the main focus of your card!!

My mojo has taken a break... yikes!!! My summer has been incredibly crazy and today was the first time I've had to sit down at my craft desk in almost two weeks... Crazy eh?  I saw this layout sometime in the last few weeks (I can't remember where) and knew it would be perfect for this week's challenge.  I kept the card incredible simple to highlight the sentiment from the TSG set "Everyday Greetings".
 
To be eligible for the giveaway, create a card or project using this week’s challenge and then come back to the TSG Blog to add your name and a link to your project in the InLinkz that is located at the bottom of this challenge post. This challenge is open until the winner has been announced on the following Monday (August 13th). The winner will get a $5 gift certificate to use in the TSG Web store!
 
By participating in this challenge, you may also find yourself in the Trendsetting Spotlight that shines on the TSG Blog every Thursday. We will be on the lookout to find challenge cards that stand out and show Trendsetting qualities. TSG stamps are not required to participate in the challenges but are appreciated :)
 
You do not need to have a blog to be able to participate in the TSG Challenges! You can simply add the URL link from your project after it has been uploaded to your online craft gallery. If you upload your card to an online craft gallery, please use the keyword TSG168 so we can check out your beautiful work!
 
Thanks for popping by!!1

DTGD12stampertammy - One in a melon


It's been a busy week here... I busted my rear to get prepped for a 4 week scrapbooking class that I was supposed to be teaching starting this week only to find out that the two participants had cancelled (I found this out the day of).  Oh well... I'm prepped for next month!!

Here is the card I made for stampertammy's challenge for the DTGD challenges at SCS.  If you're not a fan club member, you'll want to check it out. You still have a couple days left to participate in Dare to Get Dirty. 

For my card, I've used the Taylored Expressions set called "Fruity Friends" that I borrowed from a friend.  The image was stamped in Versafine Onyx Black, embossed with clear embossing powder and then watercolored with Tombow Markers.

Have a great day!!!

DTGD12Jellybean74


This year,I am enjoying  the Dare to Get Dirty challenges in a different way, mainly because I'm doing it from the "other" side as current Dirty Dozen. It has been so much fun seeing everything happen behind the scenes. 

I have made this card for my challenge :-).  Eeks!!! I'm super excited to be hosting my own challenge.  It's a fun challenge (although one of my sample makers may have cursed me a little LOL).  Make sure you head on over to this thread to check out my challenge. 

For my card, I have used the MFT set called "Disco Queen" that I have had since shortly after it came out but sadly it hadn't seen ink yet. Sad I know.... The image was stamped in Versafine Onyx Black, embossed with clear embossing powder and then watercolored with Tombow Markers.  The DP is a combination of Basic Grey and MME. 


The large photo of my card doesn't show the disco ball in as much detail as I wanted so here's a close up of the Diamond Stickles I put on it to add  a little bling.

Thanks for dropping by and make sure you head on over to SCS to check out all the DTGD details (if you're not a Fan Club member yet, you'll definitely want to be).

DTGDsweetmissdaisy - Oh Crop...


Eeks!!! Isn't he cute??? I  borrowed this "Cowlik Sunflowers" stamp from Stampendous from Tobi Crawford recently and knew it would be perfect for one of the Dare to Get Dirty challenges at SCS.   You'll want to pop on over to SCS to check out all of the details :-).  I know, I'm a tease!!! That's what being a dirty girl is all about.

Guess what else is cool... Stampendous featured this card on their FB page earlier today.  Super excited about it!!
