Simply Trendy Designs Challenge #1
This is number 1 in a challenge I created using my daughters jewelry. My daughter has a business called Simply Trendy Designs , I thought it would be fun every Saturday (hopefully) to post a picture of one of her pieces and design a card after it. You can play along too, just leave a comment with a link or post on SCS under keywords using STDC1.You can click on the link above to visit her site.
She called her piece "Purple Chunk". When she showed it to me she said for some reason she could imagine a card made with an elephant, I told her I had just the stamp for that! Her bracelets are sterling silver beads, crystals and mostly hand made beads...this one is gorgeous!
The stamp I used is a $1.99 clear stamp, I added some silver cord and my own sterling silver bead to that. The DS paper is a scrap piece and the cardstock is all SU as well as the ink.
Paper: Stampin'Up! Pale Plum, Basic Black, Going Gray, Basic Gray.
Ink: Perfect Plum

Bird On A Branch Scrap Card
FIRST: Don't forget to go below to sign up for my Blog Candy, you can sign up on two different posts! I will be drawing a name, random on the evening of March first.....you will LOVE that birdie wheel!
Isn't it fun to make a card using scraps?? I had lots of the Riding Hood Red DS paper left over in smaller pieces, so I put it to good use as well as the smaller pieces of cardstock.
I did add some silver with a glitter pen to add a bit more "bling", it just needed something. I love cards with sentiments like this, they can can be used for almost any occassion.
It was a frustrating morning, my computer malfunctioned and I lost my icons for Paypal and of all things my mailbox, now how frustrating is that??? I spent about an hour trying to figure out how to get them back, let alone I had to log into everything all over again So, if you see my icons floating around somewhere in "cyber-space" would you return them to me...LOL!
Also, the ribbon jars, I just picked up at Michael's with the 40% off sale. Now I have LOTS and LOTS of ribbon, but this is what I wound on mostly wooden clothes pins and then sorted by color, with the exception of the Halloween and Xmas ribbons. I love having these, so easy now to choose a ribbon, I can refill the containers as they need it. I hate having my ribbons on a spool, they just take up too much room and are all different sizes. The only ones I keep on the spools are my SU ribbons.
Card Recipe: Paper: Very Vanilla CS, Riding Hood Red DS , Kiwi Kiss CS, Riding Hood Red CS, Ink: Chocolate Chip, Riding Hood Red, Kiwi Kiss, Stamps: SU Bird On A Branch, Accessories: ribbon, SU Silvr Brads, Silver glitter pen.
