Jacksonbelle Tuesday Challenge!

Hi everyone! It is time for another fun Jacksonbelle Embellishments Tuesday blog challenge. To start the month off, we have a super fun sketch challenge! We would LOVE for you to play along with us! This week if you play along with us, you will have a chance to win some fabulous goodies from Jacksonbelle embellishments! All you need to do is make a card using this week's sketch and post a link to your creation on the Tuesday challenge post on the Jacksonbelle blog. You have until 3 PM EST on Friday July 10th to post your link. A random winner will be chosen from all participants. The lucky winner will receive a prize package that includes a package of Prima silver Galaxy Stars, a GORGEOUS Inkadinkado Summers Parade wood mounted stamp, and a Cosmo Cricket blackboard album!

Here is this week's sketch:

As crazy as this is for me to say....I made a NO STAMPING card for this week's challenge! There is absolutely zero stamping on this card. The sentiment panel comes from a piece from the Cosmo Cricket Fleuriste designer paper pack. Even though there were no stamps used, I did use a ton of fabulous products from Jacksonbelle Embellishments...Cosmo Cricket designer paper (ALL Cosmo Cricket is 25% off this week at JB), Prima flowers, Prima Say it in Crystals, Cuttlebug embossing folder , May Arts ribbon and Shimmerz paint!

Hello everyone! Hope you are all having a great week. Today I wanted to share a simple sympathy card. Sympathy cards are always the hardest cards for me to make. I don't like to make them too plain but at the same time fancy and complicated isn't always the best choice either. For my card today I decided to go with a fairly simple layout and then add a beautiful Blingz flower. I painted 2 Prima flowers, 1 with Spiced Cider Blingz and the other with Under the Sea. I layered them and added a brad. Nothing too fancy but enough to give the sympathy card a beautiful, elegant look.
The sentiment stamp is from DRS Designs. I paired it up with my favorite Gretel Cosmo Cricket designer paper.

Thanks for stopping by today! Hope you all have a great day!

Happy Wednesday!

Hope everyone is having a great week! Today I thought I would share one of the cards that I made with my July Firecracker Designs design team set. This month I am playing with Pamela's set "Phrases set 1". For this card I paired it up with one of my favorite sets ever..."She Dreams". I absolute LOVE this dragon. I colored the dragon with Copic markers and then painted areas with Shimmerz Marigold paint. I love the shiny look it gives the dragon.
Thanks for stopping by today. Have a wonderful day!
