We will be having our chalk girls join the stamp girls here

This first challenge is to create in Black and White! What fun!! Get those creative juices flowing and see what you can find for black and white! We are looking forward to seeing what you create!

Somebody suggested that mine looked like a small clutch purse....and by golly they are correct! It wasn't the intention...but it does! Anyway....what fun this black and white creation was! I started with black onyx cs by GK and then added some Paper Studio dp strips. Martha Stewart lace punch created the black topper and then added a string of pearls along with a black bow and pearl.

The flowers are Cottage Cutz Flowers that are layered and brads in the middle. The Sunshine Seeds are from Stamp N Plus Scrap N  ( You can find the image here in the store). I stamped the image with Versa Mark Champagne and then used Stardust chalk with a stipple brush. I heat embossed it so that I could brush off the excess chalk. Then it was cut out with Spellbinders Classic Scalloped Rectangles and popped up on the front with a few added pearls.

The inside again used the strips of Paper Studio dp and the image is also from Stamp N Plus Scrap N (Click here for the image at the store). Again it was done with Versa Mark Champagne and Stardust chalk...it gives s slight shiny look to it. The sentiments (Look here for the sentiments) were stamped with Moonlight White Brilliance ink...added a couple of pearls and some black pearls for accent.        

Remember this is a month long challenge....and we WANT to see your creation!

Flowers for May

This is for the FOSTV challenge  #18-- May theme. Hope to see your creation! Flowers are an easy one to do! Good luck!

I used the MFP a Heinrich Company's Daffodil Greetings 2012 stamps and stamped on white cs by GKD and then colored with Copics and highlighted with Sakura glitter pens. The images were cut out with Beaded Ovals by Spellbinders. Added some ribbon and some pink hearts on the ovals that were sponged with Mmento Cantaloupe, Summer Sky or Dandelion. The dp is fro 3 Bugs in a Rug and wine cs is from GKD.

Question is....did those April Showers Bring May Flowers???
