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!!

TSG Sneak Peek - Beach Bums!!!

Our final set this month at There She Goes is another FABULOUS creation from Torico. Made to coordinate perfectly with the previously released Make A Splash stamp set, this set if perfect for not only making cards, but scrapbooking your family vacations, and summer beach trips!

LOL!!! I love every image in this set but wanted to do something a little different than what I thought people would create.  This card would be perfect for a friend who is needing a bit of encouragement.  The layout for my card is this month's SFYTT. 

If you're a member of the Fan Club at SCS, I have another project here for this month's Dirty Dozen Summertime gallery. 

Beach Bum is a 6x8 set that includes a total of 19 stamps and will sell for $24.00.

ISSC26 Talk nerdy to me

WOW!!! This has been one busy week especially with the Dare to Get Dirty Challenges at SCS just around the corner. Have you been enjoying the TSG sneak peeks as well this week? 

We all know the reason you're here... this week's iSpy sketch which is from Therese Calvird and is based on this card.

Easy sketch eh?  I love it!! Although I must admit, this one had me stumped for a LONG time.  I couldn't figure out what I wanted to do with it and then I had an aha moment.  Or should I say I slapped my own forehead moment?  LOL.

For my card, I was inspired by the new "Sunny Side" DP from Pebbles that I bought at my LSS recently. The image is an a la Mode image called "Talk Nerdy to Me" from MFT. The image was stamped in Versafine Onyx Black, embossed with clear embossing powder and then watercolored with my Tombow Markers.  I think this card would be perfect for a back to school gift.

Now head on over to the iSpy blog to check out what the DT has created!!!

Have a great day!!!

TSG Sneak Peek - Enjoy Life

Eeks!!! Day 3 of Sneak peeks for this month's TSG release.  WOWZA!!! So much fun!!!

No sweeter treat, or better way to Enjoy Life in the summer time than an ice cream cone, am I right? Well, Torico has made a FABULOUS set of mix and match patterns of ice cream, and their cones, for you to custom make your own YUMMY treats! And even better, we have custom made our own Die’s to go along with this FABULOUS set!!! They are a set of three dies including two ice cream tops, measuring at approximately 1 1/4" and 1", and one cone measuring at 1 1/8".

For my card, I have used both the dies and stamps from "Enjoy Life".  I stamped on the brown and pink DP in Versamark ink and then embossed with clear embossing powder.  Both were then cut out using the co-ordinating dies. LOVE them!!! 

Enjoy Life is a 4x4 set that includes a total of 11 stamps and will sell for $10.00.

The Enjoy Life dies will sell separately for $8.25.
