Stamp a Faire Challenge #1

Well I went backwards making the cards but now I have put together my Challenge #1 for Papertrey Ink. Not my best. I used Gride Lines 2 and Warm Happiness stamp sets. Made the background with the Gride Line set and had the  coffee mug on hand.

Stamp-a-Faire #5

Here is my Challenge #5, which we had to use a shape to make a border. I looked and thought what could I use and found my 2008 Holiday Tag Collection. I spotted the snowflake tag circle. Wow, what a great border. Then I had some squares of Rustic Snowflake Paper and cut those out. Stamped the words in the squares from the stamp set. Simple but cute. I hope.

Stamp a Faire Challenge #6

Here is my Challenge #6 using Scattered Showers stamp set.  You had to use a cut out of a circle or square and attach some type of twine, ribbon or what ever came to mind. I used fun fur. A bit out there but I felt like it went with the colors. I added silver rhinestones to the umbrella.  Enjoy!

Stamp a Faire Challenge #8

So here is another card I put together for Papertrey Ink's challenge. You have to make a card that has been cut about an inch to put a border.

I used Father Knows Best set and paper from them also. You can see the border on the right. I really like this set. The tree can be used for any season.

One of my favorite stamp sets is the Friendship Jar set. Mish has made such a great grouping of stamp sets in this grouping. Go over there and see all of their sets. You will love them.
