Papertake Weekly - Katharina's Sketch #6

What can I say, but another Great Sketch from Katherina again for this weeks Papertake Weekly challenge. I really enjoyed this Sketch and I think I'm slowly getting to grips with Contrasting Papers. Do you ever look back at past posts and think what the hell were you thinking when you made that? I know I do, but it's less an less now. Who know's maybe I am improving, or I could just be getting used to them.

These Scrummy Papers are from Eva Kiplers "Wild Blueberry Kit" from Sweet Shoppe Designs. I had a hard time deciding which papers to use. I stamped Tilda with Blue Pigment ink and Embossed using Clear Embossing Powder, then coloured with Twinkling H2O's. Thank You sentiment is from my "Thank You" Hero Arts Clear Stamps set which I also Embossed. Finally added some Ribbon from my stash.

Stamp Something - Red, White, and Blue.

This is this week's challenge: "Create something in red, white and blue and have it be ANYTHING BUT A CARD!" So with that here's my Red, White, and Blue Notes Book.

I used these really cute papers from Christy Lyle's "All Hands on Deck" Kit available from Sweet Shoppe Designs. I added some Ribboin, Buttons and Foam Letters.

NWR Digi Course - Challenge Wednesday

Every Wednesday on our course we get a challenge to complete, I haven't had a chance to do Week 1's challenge yet but here's what Jessica gave us for week 2.

'

The fun part is you can pick and choose from several items to challenge yourself with, but if you choose to accept the challenge, you MUST use at least 3 of the items listed on a single page. Ready? Go!

Challenge #2:

• Use at least two patterned papers from our new Carnival kit (are there some you haven't used yet? I bet there are! :D)
• Include journaling strips
• Download the 100 in 10 challenge list we completed on my blog a few months back. That's here: 100 in 10 challenge list. Choose one of the items on the list to incorporate into your challenge, and make sure to post the number when you post your layout! :D
• Find another use for the circle template from Lesson 2 - perhaps put patterned paper in some of the pieces, or only use half of them.

Give it a try! I think you'll find a LOT of good ideas on the 100 in 10 challenge list.

Here's my LO, I used the first 3 items in the list and completed No 66 on the 100 in 10 Challenge list. The backing papers are from the Carnival Kit by Sweet Shoppe Designs that was an exclusive to everyone on the course.

I've stuck with Sweet Shoppe Designs for the backing papers, this time using the Adorable Me kit by Misty Cato and Betty Jo Martins. I've painted Tilda with Watercolours and stamped the sentment.

CPS #67

Here's my take on CPS's sketch #67. Still need to get back into the swing, I'm a bit rusty at the moment. I do enjoy using Silver Mirri card at the moment. The way the photograph came out it looks like Gold and Silver. I don't think I'll ever be able to ge that effect again even if I try. It looks great.

Today I've used backing papers from Sweet Shoppe Designs Sugar and Spice Kit by Zoe Pearne. All mounted onto Silver Mirri card, stamped sentiment is from Unmounted Stamp Company, and I used some Silver Peel Off Butterflies and Flowers to finish it off.
