Loonie Stampers Challenge #5 ~~~ AND An Introduction!

                    

Morning!!!  Don't those colors above look amazing together??  Yeah, I thought they did too until I tried to make a card!!!  Regan, girlfriend, this was tough for me!  I had a hard time making them appear 'grown up' so what I got was some fun bright kids birthday cards!!  Take a look and while you're at it check out the other Loonies!!  Will you play along??  Be sure to add a link in the comment section if you do.  And if you don't have the Papertrey Cardstock....don't worry you can substitute SU Chocolate, Real Red and Summer Sun.  Teh bow on the 2nd card was totally inspired by my amazing friend Kimberly....I am sure I stole that idea from her!! Thanks Kim!

Loonie Stampers Challenge #5

                          

Happy Friday everyone!!  This is going to be a great day ~~~ Jewels arrives today to stay with me for the weekend.  We only live 2.5 hours apart and I know we are going to have so much fun!!  I can't wait!

Today's LSC challenge was mine to choose and I went with the above colors.   However, this week I did not choose a specific stamp set to use ~~~~ so if you are playing along use any stamp set you want!  In fact my card has no stamping at all.  Can you believe the stem on my flowers is thread?  I was thrilled to find my sewing machine has this leaf design as an option. 

Here's the links to my Loonie Stampers gals.  Be sure to check out what they have done with these colors too.  And if you play along, which I hope you do, be sure to put a link in the comment section so I can check it out!!  Have the greatest day ever!  Oh one more thing....this layout was inspired from a card of Debbie Olsons I found in a magazine.

Loonie Stampers Challenge #4

                         

Can you believe it's been 2 weeks already??  This week our challenge was chosen by Deanna.  This is the FIRST time I have used this anniversay set from Papertrey.  I think it was about time too!  Here is my card.  I feel like it's missing a sentiment but I couldn't figure out where or how to add one. 

Please be sure to check out the other looney stampers cards by clicking on their names below.  And please....play along!  Add a link to your card in our comments so we can be sure to check them out.  Have a great day everyone.  I am still out of town but I have another card scheduled for Monday and then I will be back to start creating some new schtuff!

Loonie Stampers Challenge #3

                                        

Happy Friday Morning everyone!!  Today's Loonie Stampers Challenge was issued by Jewels.   And did she ever take us to task with these colors!  LOL.  While they were not the easiest colors to combine I am happy with my card.  I cheated a bit though.........and did not use the actual Summer Sunrise cardstock.  I used these foam letter stickers that I had purchased from Michaels.  They are an exact match!!  The inside of the card is stamped....."where you're planted".  All the other product is Papertrey including the Spiral Bouquet stamp set we were required to use.  The next LSC is scheduled for August 8th.

                             Thanks for stopping by.  Have the greatest day ever!!

Loonie Stampers Challenge #2

                                        

Well, here we are with our 2nd edition of the Loonie Stampers Challenge! So FUN!  You can find the details of how our challenge started and our cards from the first round here.  Today it was Regans turn to issue the specifications for us to use.  She chose the Papertrey colors.......Berry Sorbet,  Spring Moss, Aqua Mist, Blush Blossom as well as white and chocolate...... all of which was inspired by her little girls dress pattern above.  We could not use any stamped images but we could use any sentiment of our choice.  She may have meant a Papertrey sentiment but I had to go with this new metal sticker I just bought.  And I think the Friendship sentiment is quite fitting for a challenge amongst friends, don't you?  So, here is my card below. The chocolate is my base and the flowers cut out with my Cuttlebug fullfill all the color requirements.  I also just picked up these little self stick metal dots which were the perfect size.  Love those!!  And I have to say a great big  **THANK YOU to Jewels**    for creating our Logo as well as the color map above.  She rocks at computer stuff whereas I need all the help I can get. 

We would totally love it if you would play along with us.  If you do please be sure to post a link so we can check them out!!  Thanks for visiting and Happy Friday everyone!!!!

Loonie Stampers Challenge #1

                        

One of the greatest things about blogging and hanging out on forums, such as Papertrey, is all the great people I have "met" and become friends with. Three of them are fellow Canadians who are super talented stampers and bloggers but most importantly they are amazing girls who are fun, fun, fun!!  I met Jewels in January when we both won the Papertrey GSS.  We only live 2.5 hours apart and we hit it off immediately.  I met Dee and Regan on the Papertrey forums.  They live in Eastern Canada across the street from each other. 

I thought it would be fun to do a blog challenge with these girls and when I asked they were all for it.  Soooo....every 2 weeks one of us will pick a stamp set and colors that we must use and then post the results.  It will be fun to see how different everyones cards can be using the same ingredients.  We would love it if you would play along.  If you do be sure to post a link in the comments section so we can check it out.  For this weeks challenge I chose the Papertrey set Piece of Cake as well as the colors Berry Sorbet, Aqua Mist and Choc Chip.  Any of the stamps from the set can be used. 

When trying to think of a name for our little challenge Loonie Stampers Challenge popped in to my head.  I told the girls it was because we are Canadian and our dollar coin is called a Loonie.......but really, it's because the girls are a little bit crazy!!  LOL, but don't tell them I said that.

Please check out their great cards below.  I hope you enjoyed this challenge as much as we did!!
