SAF 2017: 5th Anniversary 2

SAF 2017: 5th Anniversary - Wood
Challenge 2 

Bummer I can't make it through all the challenges...I really wanted to make some salt dough and wool projects. But this will have to be the last one for now:


An inked wood grain background and all the cuteness of Stylized Autumn.

Goodnight SAF 2017,

SAF 2017: 5th Anniversary

SAF 2017: 5th Anniversary - Wood
1st challenge

I was blown away by Lizzie's wood hexagon card! I am in love with this technique, it makes me look like I am an excellent wood worker that can do intricate wood inlay. So so pretty!

I only had balsam wood and a few copic markers but managed to pull this off:





I used Scene it: Mountian View die and Noted Die (‘hello’)

Thank you Lizzie for this neat idea. I hope to try it again with veneer. And all the projects you ladies have done are beautiful!

Happy SAF!

SAF 2017: 3rd Anniversary

SAF 2017: 3rd Anniversary Leather

challenge 1

Is getting up at 5 to finish cards crazy...maybe a little =)

Here's my try at leather made from paper:




I tried some different browns, but I think I over scrunched...my 'leather' ended up quite wrinkly. I'll have to practice this. I used the Give Thanks set and the leaf from Phrase Play #7 to embellish the leather.

Happy SAF 2017!

SAF 2017: 1st Anniversary

Paper - 2nd challenge

I found time to finish a card =)
Here is my take on Laura's lovely paper & vellum technique.

I wish I had that cover plate I would have made her exact card, it's so pretty!
But I grabbed What the Doodle Feather and had fun:



A little ink smoothing, sentiment from Song Birds, and some sequins finished off my card.

Happy SAF 2017!

SAF 2017: 1st Anniversary - Paper
Challenge one

Ok those tassels and little bags of confetti were too cute!
I decided to make a large fun tag:




I tried Rebecca's paper bow and confetti bag idea. I used PTIs Shaker and Sprinkles kit...perfect fit no? =) My tag base is from the Post and Parcel kit.

Happy SAF!

SAF 2017:Warm Up

SAF 2017: Take Ten Warm Up Challenge


I told my hubby I need the weekend off...he laughed. But i'm sneaking in some challenges.

Here is the inspiration I chose: 



I know all those pretty colored ones and my brain started coming up with black and white ideas =)

My Card (and envelope)

I was inspired my the black line patterns, paper clips, and circle of sting. So I grab my PTI Clipsters set and Circle Scribbles set and had a blast!

Happy SAF!
