My last Curtain Call DT sample

Firstly, I’m sorry for posting it up so late! I had the post scheduled, but only now I saw that it didn’t launch! Got to love Blogger sometimes… :/
This week marks my last challenge as a member of a Curtain Call Crew. I can’t believe how quickly the last six months went! It has been one of a kind experience, and I’m so grateful for it. Thank you, Stacey!

Here are this week’s colours {ACT45}:

An occasion to smile

Are you still having a great time this weekend? I hope so! I also hope that you’ll play with this week’s Curtain Call Color Challenge: {Act 44)! Look at these cheerful colours:

It looks like Stacey is inviting you to squeeze the very best out of the last weeks of summer!
Below is what I’ve done with this colour combination - can you tell I love my pinking shears lately?

Photobucket

Supplies: cardstock: Canson; paper: October Afternoon; stamp: Hero Arts; ink: StazOn (Timber Brown); watercolour pencils: Belgrave; blender pen; sewing machine; pinking scissors; decorative chalks: Pebbles; buttons; grosgrain ribbon

The background is clear embossed, but it’s hard to see on the photo… I also applied some grey chalk to the edges (which coloured the thread too - I like this technique), and shaded the image with it.
I used the new Card Patterns sketch 78:

Curtain Call (and my first time with Nesties)

Hi there friends, how do you like the new look of my blog? Pretty cool huh? :) I fell in love with this template as soon as I saw it… and now it’s mine! MWAHAHAHAAAA!

Today I’m bringing you my card for the new awesome colours of Curtain Call Color Challenge: {ACT 41}.
In case any of you is wondering - this is no joke with the title of my post - this was my first time with Nestabilities…
My most awesome stamping buddy and fellow Curtain Crew member, Sue Kohler, was kind enough to lend me a couple of sets. Do you know what I’ll be doing for the next couple of days?? TEE HEE!

So, this combo is another winner in my books. Check it out:

Did you take a closer look at the inspiration photo? Aren’t these blue stones (?), wrapped in lace, the cutest things EVAH?? *sigh*
Here is my card…

Photobucket

Supplies: cardstock: Canson, Artarama; paper: Scenic Route, DCWV; stamp: Sullivans; ink: Versa Color (Lagoon Blue); paper piercer; Cuttlebug machine & Nestabilities Pinking Circle; decorative chalks: Pebbles; string: Papertrey Ink; stickers: SRM Stickers; eyelets, glitter

I chose to play with the brand new SFYTT… there are not many sketch designers in the Blogland like Jen, who would produce such beauties, unfailingly week after week :) As you can see, I rotated the layout.
