Clear It Out Challenge #36

Hello, friends.  Thank you for stopping by today.  I hope y'all are having a great Tuesday.

This week's challenge at Clear It Out is a KISS challenge.  We all know what that means right.  Well, I'm am just not good at these cards.  I have a hard time keeping it simple.  I made two cards for this challenge and didn't like either one.  I finally decided to add a bit of stuff and liked it much better.

I love the sentiments that came with this cute set from Deedee Designs..  It's calle "Bee-lieve".  Adding some patterned papers made me like the card much better.

Thanks for joining us for this challenge.  Have a wonderful day and God bless.

Digital Stamps 4 Joy Challenge #96 For the Boys

Good Morning.  Welcome to the new challenge Digital Stamps 4 Joy.  Our challenge this week is "FOR THE BOYS".  Our challenge this week is hosted by Riette.  She has picked this challenge because of her love of making masculine cards.  You can create a card for any occasion as long as it's a masculine card.  

Our challenge will run for two weeks, from July 9 through July 22.  You can link up with inLinkz or email your entry to Margy.  We would prefer you to use a DS4J image but it is not mandatory.  Although, if you would like to win the DT Choice prize, you must use a DS4J image.  You can find lots of masculine images in the store under the "BOYS 'n' TOYS category.

I used "Train Set" to make my project for today.

I made this altered canvas frame into a photo frame using the train set.  I colored the trains with BIC Mark-its.  I white washed the outside wooden frame and used some The Paper Studio papers for the middle.

Thank you for joining us today for our new challenge. I hope y'all have a wonderful day.  God bless.

News at MFP

                                 

Hello there.  Today I am posting for MFP.  We have a new stamp release available.  Man, I just love this month's sets.  They are fantastic.

                                   

I love the Chinese Takeout one and the flowers.  I think they are my favorites.

I also posted my first challenge on MFP as the hostess of Simple Salutations.  I had a difficult time getting it live.  We had a severe storm today which knocked out our power.  Not a good thing when working online. It is also 90 degrees today and it was starting to get pretty hot before the electricity came back on.  I finally managed to get it live. :)

Have a wonderful Hump Day! WHOOT! WHOOT!  God bless.
