DCWV Card Challenge

Good morning all!  It is so hot here in Texas, all week will will have triple-digit weather, today it will reach 105 degrees.  But not to fear we will have a cold front on Sunday, it will be 96, haha, how do you like them (cooked) apples.  I don't know about you but I have been staying indoors, crafting as a matter of fact. 

For now I will show you this card I made for DCWV's June Stack-a-holic Challenge, it's been a while so I went for it and decided to make the card.  The patterned from the Hittin' The Books Stack.  If you remember I also used this stack to make the school minis for my little one's teachers here (and one for me too).  Here is the card sketch.

I used a Stickles in Diamond to outline the butterfly, but looks copper on a black background.  Hope Erin likes the card and selects it for the challenge.
Have a great day!

DCWV Challenge Top Ten

Well I was one the top ten picked by Erin at Die Cuts With a View blog, for the May-stack-aholic template challenge (remember from my previous post here).  And, I was also selected to win a prize (thank you Random.org may I meet you one day), so I can't wait to get my prize, could it be another paper stack?!   Since I only have at least 100 some stacks.  Love paper but you already knew that.
Now I just don't know where I will be putting these layouts, since they are random and created on the spur of the moment.
Have an excellent day!

Strike a Pose

Hello all, hope everyone is doing well.  Here is a layout that I submitted to Erin at DCWV's blog.  Haven't been into layouts lately but since I {heart} DCWV paper so much I figured I enter the challenges, to force myself to use the paper I hoard have.

Sweet Girl Layout

This is our dog, she is very small as you can see, so I thought I would use her for a challenge at DCWV's Blog that Erin has going on.

The paper for the base of this layout is DCWV Mariposa stack and the solid paper is Mariposa cardstock stack.  This is my favorite stack and don't really like using it because I like it so much.

The flowers are Prima

The butterflies are from a Martha Stewart punch.

 

The leaves and letters are from Sizzix dies.

Thanks for stopping by and have a creative day!
