#10 - remembering Jessi


This week's challenge at Shopping our Stash is a bittersweet one...sad as we lost a close design team member and happy because we are remembering her style and sass.  We are to choose a blog post of Jessi's (onecraftymama) and make a project that is inspiring to you.  I chose the following as this is the first time I worked with her on our design team...http://onecraftymama-onecraftymama.blogspot.com/2012/08/my-first-post-at-shopping-our-stash-65.html
tried to follow her clean style on this card and used up some of my few epoxy dots in her honour.  She will be missed dearly by me.  Please play along with us and make a huge tribute to one truly special lady.

#9 - inspired by quilting


This week's challenge at Shopping our Stash is to make a project that is inspired by quilting...I went for some layers and squares and a little pieced giraffe for my project and I thought it looked quite Quilty when it was done with the different patterns and polkadots.  Play along with us, will you?

#8 - hearts on fire


This week's challenge at Shopping our Stash is to do a project with a heart on it...doesn't have to be Valentine's Day related but something loving would be nice.  This little mouse is the cutest ever and I had to ink him up - a lot of fussy cutting on this one but he was worth it...play along with us, will you?

#1-7 Winter Blues

Welcome to a new year and new projects.  This year I am trying to do 300 cards or paper projects and am trying to use up some of my ridiculous paper stash.  I am also going to try to make sure that at least once every month new stamps meet ink.  I have so many that haven't been used so that is my goal this year. We are playing with the winter blues at Shopping our Stash this week after a bit of a holiday rest.  The goal of this challenge is to use blues or winter or a combo of the two.  I made a few playing with one of the new die sets I purchased just prior to Christmas...the layers are fun so I made a few.  Play along with us, will you?
