NOVEMBER SKETCH CHALLENGE AT THE HOUSE THAT STAMPS BUILT

Hi there blog friends!!! 

 Here we go with another fun Wednesday Challenge from The House That Stamps Built. This week it's a sketch challenge and we hope you'll join in.  Flip it, twist it, just have fun with it.  



I kept to the true sketch for my card.  



The Repeat Impressions stamps I used on this card are RI#8902-L "Moose Snow Globe".  I used only the globe part of this stamp.  The sentiment is RI#8909-G "Magical Christmas".  I also used the Flip Stitched Die Set to create the bg.  

After stamping my image on watercolor paper with Archival black ink, I watercolored it with Inktense pencils.  After it was dry, I used a technique called "Delft Tiles".  The sentiment is embossed with white ep.

Thank you for stopping by, and I hope you'll play along with our sketch challenge this week.  There's a $25.00 GC up for grabs for your choice of RI stamps.  All the details are at The House.  

And just in case you can't wait to win the challenge, you can get a 10% discount by using the code rr10cs when you place an order.

O HOLY NIGHT AT 30 DAYS OF CHRISTMAS AT TECHNIQUE JUNKIES

Hey there, Junkies!!!  

I'm here with a new post for the 30 Days of Christmas that's happening at Technique Junkies Blog until December 14.  

There's a BIG 25% OFF SALE going on right now for any of the stamps in their Christmas catagory....you don't want to miss it, there are some truly fabulous Christmas stamps in this collection.  

Here's a card I made that I'd like to share with you using the "Stars Are Brightly Shining" stamp







I thought the "galaxy" technique might work with this stamp, so I gave it a shot and I loved it.  I used Distress Inks to achieve my bg.  After drying the base, I inked up with VersaMark to stamp the image before sprinking white embossing powder over it and heat embossing.  I then used my Viva Gitter Pen to add some sparkle to the bg.

I hope you're enjoying the 30 days of Christmas.  Now go enjoy some shopping and add some incredible Christmas stamps to your collection.
