This challenge was to use some our scraps from our stash, dry or wet embossing and a technique or tool that we had not ever used before. I decided to use this challenge to make a prayer box. I needed a prayer box for a member of my Sunday School class. I pulled the papers from my stash of used paper. I dry embossed the sentimemt box on the top of the prayer box and for my technique, I haven't done a box like this before, so I used this as a new technique.
I'm a bit late in posting, though I completed the project six (6) days ago. Sorry ladies, I'll do better with posting next time.

Our team challenge was to create a shaped card, using polka dots, bling and ribbon. I think I met all the criteria and had a blast doing it. I created a high top tennis shoe card and added my favorite embellishments, ribbon and bling. There's a special 3 year-old little girl that I'll be sending to.
I hope that you'll enjoy this as much as I enjoyed preparing it.
TFSB,

Hi there my fellow scrappers:
Well, we decided to do another round, so here's the sketch for round 2 of our challenge. We used Karen Giron's sketch from the The Sweetest Things weekly sketch challenge.
Below is my interpretation of that sketch. I really dug in my stash; the flower is my Heidi Swapp flower stash from a couple of years ago. The button is from my "button craze" stash and the dimensional pearls used to fill the center of the button are as old as the button. This was a fun challenge.

I, along with some of my scrapping girlfriends, have started working on bi-weekly challenges. We're trying to use our stashes, work on our creativity and for me, play with my new Silhouette, so that I can justify the purchase.
Well, anyway, the above sketch from Valerie Simon was our first sketch. Below is my version of the sketch.

What's wrong with that I ask myself. It seems I really enjoy the creative process, but I'm not the best at downloading pictures from my camera and uploading them. So, I thought I'd play catch-up. <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

I tried to remember to always take puctures, but don't always get around to posting them timely. It's about 2:00 in the morning, so while I don't have a lot to say about each of the projects, I wanted to take the time to share.
I hope you enjoy.
Thanks for stopping by,
Karen</i></b>

The flowers on these cards were made using the Flower Shoppe and Sophie Cricut cartridges. <br />I had such a good time playing with the flowers,layering, distressing and blinging them up.<br />Enjoy and TFSB,<br />Karen</strong>KarensKreativeTreasureshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07460693509855841437noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-44418265088808455.post-77532007461365801952012-01-04T20:05:00.008-06:002012-01-04T20:19:45.580-06:00Latest projects<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiL4-xrjr8SDIF_q9wZlRKtkDXs_blQXXm4kwPFUMJ_y_MQF_p45kyfGn1fol47_mG_6GSqBMRZR8KrXiigIn2KcSEgiXrJewrvyvX04PVcDJnJ3di1TL4cY3NtXV9fxHaM4Ldg_CscmA/s1600/Imported+Photos+00047.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 274px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiL4-xrjr8SDIF_q9wZlRKtkDXs_blQXXm4kwPFUMJ_y_MQF_p45kyfGn1fol47_mG_6GSqBMRZR8KrXiigIn2KcSEgiXrJewrvyvX04PVcDJnJ3di1TL4cY3NtXV9fxHaM4Ldg_CscmA/s320/Imported+Photos+00047.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5693964439268290994" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhCMx18yomab-zezh3MNIFJLBT97hBQpZpyp8aIEZbkurmNAFDuyn4izJtNsDygdrkB7DVj0UheEJGhx2rIUOsomzOj1J4eY_Sb1jUPp6zrHurF1NtY7vkV12Jh3cg_QHGOt7N0Tt0sNw/s1600/Imported+Photos+00039.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 246px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhCMx18yomab-zezh3MNIFJLBT97hBQpZpyp8aIEZbkurmNAFDuyn4izJtNsDygdrkB7DVj0UheEJGhx2rIUOsomzOj1J4eY_Sb1jUPp6zrHurF1NtY7vkV12Jh3cg_QHGOt7N0Tt0sNw/s320/Imported+Photos+00039.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5693964337472500386" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhHnb7U6uy4ejfAAZI-g4FQiDzT0nidsT8VR6obPQr1pZF1jvdqBEEMOPMITdbh8sQ759ssjIW57qKKECFU72bXoGWR2PYL0o6-sMXtcBmF_xirAzJv-Ju22fsVKTiSRl32FPWL_QrGlw/s1600/Imported+Photos+00007.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 198px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhHnb7U6uy4ejfAAZI-g4FQiDzT0nidsT8VR6obPQr1pZF1jvdqBEEMOPMITdbh8sQ759ssjIW57qKKECFU72bXoGWR2PYL0o6-sMXtcBmF_xirAzJv-Ju22fsVKTiSRl32FPWL_QrGlw/s320/Imported+Photos+00007.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5693964111572971650" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh9tZF8XZp20R_Q4rfh8BAqnLElaEi2Jq2Vf1LzR25bPF6aQEAUToKYqKmJtNoSJ8G6qfOKeSqsK4f4sGruZ0tOK0eqPQwoG7w0OX_FFAZaS3hS7PlsWf9ZvepHCcbu8PdGxWGIFyywzw/s1600/Imported+Photos+00002.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 246px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh9tZF8XZp20R_Q4rfh8BAqnLElaEi2Jq2Vf1LzR25bPF6aQEAUToKYqKmJtNoSJ8G6qfOKeSqsK4f4sGruZ0tOK0eqPQwoG7w0OX_FFAZaS3hS7PlsWf9ZvepHCcbu8PdGxWGIFyywzw/s320/Imported+Photos+00002.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5693963974402529602" /></a><br /><strong>Happy New Year!!!! It's been a while since I've posted, but not because I haven't been crafting; though, not as much as I'd like to. Anyway, here are a couple of my latest projects. I'm trying to get ready for all the January birthdays, so I've got 4 more birthday cards to make in the next week. The Christmas tags were made to be attached to some lightbulbs I found at Hobby Lobby. I filled them with small candy pieces. They made great Christmas trinkets.<br /><br />I'm so glad you stopped by and I hope that you enjoy my last few projects.<br />TFSB,</strong>KarensKreativeTreasureshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07460693509855841437noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-44418265088808455.post-85032180863133896222011-09-24T23:21:00.000-05:002011-09-22T23:25:53.811-05:00More September Birthdays<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgg8BHMpJOAwC4UXET0E3VpP8k1os1kBAiToxsuJrWT15S83VAF1vvWeOx2ko_OKyRDhyphenhyphenf_Cd8vT0U7bmS9hqM96OZEfbRbvSaaDGBADwJoqSu3rqTltiHX_7nWnMvSueMSp7k6k57XmA/s1600/Imported+Photos+00075.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 306px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgg8BHMpJOAwC4UXET0E3VpP8k1os1kBAiToxsuJrWT15S83VAF1vvWeOx2ko_OKyRDhyphenhyphenf_Cd8vT0U7bmS9hqM96OZEfbRbvSaaDGBADwJoqSu3rqTltiHX_7nWnMvSueMSp7k6k57XmA/s320/Imported+Photos+00075.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5655406313219713058" /></a><br /><br />More September birthdays; whew, only one more to go, 9/30/11, so I better get started on that card.

<br />There's an inspiration blog-hop going on over at <a href="http://thecuttingcafe.typepad.com/">The Cutting Cafe</a> this week. So for this inspiration, I used the <a href="http://thecuttingcafe.typepad.com/the_cutting_cafe/2011/08/assorted-shapes-milk-cartontemplate-cutting-file.html">Milk Carton</a> digital stamps and the <a href="http://thecuttingcafe.typepad.com/the_cutting_cafe/2011/08/got-milk-carton-sentimentsprintable-stamps.html">Milk Carton Sentiments</a>. We'll be giving this set away, so be sure and leave a comment on my blog. I'll draw one name by Saturday to win the set. Also, be sure to visit the other designers at The Cutting Cafe, who are participating in the inspiration challenge.
<br />For this challenge, I decided to also create a matching card for the milk carton
<br />Enjoy and TFSB

<br />This week, the inspiration over at <a href="http://thecuttingcafe.typepad.com/">The Cutting Cafe</a> came in the way of gumballs and gumball machines from the <a href="http://thecuttingcafe.typepad.com/the_cutting_cafe/2011/07/gumball-machine-shaped-cardtemplate-cutting-file.html">Gumball Machine Shaped Card</a> digital stamp set. This set was so fun to play with; who doesn't love gumballs? I decided to emboss the gumballs, to add more dimension to the gumball machine and of course a little pink decorative time, bling and a cute flower.
<br />This digital stamp set is definitely a must for your stash, so drop by The Cutting Cafe to order a copy of it.

<br />I was playing with the <a href="http://thecuttingcafe.typepad.com/the_cutting_cafe/2011/07/fun-with-silhouettesprintable-stamp-set.html">"Fun With Silhouettes"</a> digital stamp set from <a href="http://thecuttingcafe.typepad.com/the_cutting_cafe/">The Cutting Cafe</a> and decided to make a wall hanging, using the dress silhouette. I cut the dress in black for a shadow effect, then cut it again in a pink and white pattern. Then, I cut a pink postage stamp from pink card stock, then I embossed it with a CuttleBug folder. The gray piece behind the pink is a piece of Grungeboard, that I painted with Black Magic Glimmer Mist and layered over a piece of black cardstock. I added a quick sentiment and of course ribbon to finish up the design.

Seems school was just letting out for the summer, now it's time for back-to-school shopping already. It's also a great time for making cards to send with your students as they prepare to go back to the class room or prepare for campus life, at college. I made this Off-to-College card for my godchild, who's headed away to college, for her freshman year; where did the time go. For this card, I used the <a href="http://thecuttingcafe.typepad.com/the_cutting_cafe/2010/08/off-to-collegehuge-circle-word-printable-stamp-set.html">Off To College</a> digital stamp set from <a href="http://thecuttingcafe.typepad.com/">The Cutting Cafe</a>. I was having so much fun, that I decided to make a matching envelope. The fabulous flowers were cut from the Paper Lace Cricut cartridge and of course, my Martha Stewart border punches were near by for the scallops.<br />Enjoy and TFSBKarensKreativeTreasureshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07460693509855841437noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-44418265088808455.post-83037355469215961992011-07-31T23:05:00.003-05:002011-08-01T23:23:25.216-05:00You Color My World<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjgZWNcHoX-1FLPzA9RGmzvhAFs26fgACZMgeefoqD0jHemGI_ebWHsrqDwvv3Eg8TEMKT38SSg_9kZa8Wf7GYJutyLN2DSu2Dw30PV5USnmiaKiVqOEsU-4g9K4MIXr-aJeeSlVfFE2A/s1600/Imported+Photos+00026.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 98px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjgZWNcHoX-1FLPzA9RGmzvhAFs26fgACZMgeefoqD0jHemGI_ebWHsrqDwvv3Eg8TEMKT38SSg_9kZa8Wf7GYJutyLN2DSu2Dw30PV5USnmiaKiVqOEsU-4g9K4MIXr-aJeeSlVfFE2A/s320/Imported+Photos+00026.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5636109382762075330" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjPRJYHMkjhmpdq9aZ0Evgv5vhutgaB-N6GpPeuNyJFka4WIeTVitfR5vDf_hnhodbtJoDNFrk_Ds_rj9e0EuzytAum43P-NtjmQe4B0Xsa2JLHcYh9dwqXiYlqn_99siUf12FwNBpdvw/s1600/Imported+Photos+00020.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 208px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjPRJYHMkjhmpdq9aZ0Evgv5vhutgaB-N6GpPeuNyJFka4WIeTVitfR5vDf_hnhodbtJoDNFrk_Ds_rj9e0EuzytAum43P-NtjmQe4B0Xsa2JLHcYh9dwqXiYlqn_99siUf12FwNBpdvw/s320/Imported+Photos+00020.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5636109240842936338" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhdeV2pn11I0ZxtwnJK-DEUjfwI2YzVSTiThOgIDhjy3dpAYb1Ka2Qn8zhbZE_UXIKHqk6zW-xn0dcadg4GgCsRjAtCiGZz8Tlaz_lOaZm6yfrZodDqqNDrtwif1UK_RiV1kbsWn5vNFw/s1600/Imported+Photos+00021.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 284px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhdeV2pn11I0ZxtwnJK-DEUjfwI2YzVSTiThOgIDhjy3dpAYb1Ka2Qn8zhbZE_UXIKHqk6zW-xn0dcadg4GgCsRjAtCiGZz8Tlaz_lOaZm6yfrZodDqqNDrtwif1UK_RiV1kbsWn5vNFw/s320/Imported+Photos+00021.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5636109105510336930" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiFxGApBBsn-VJkvDavGvUD0n6lvxxnBEapXYuRb0vjZejQ_cGBuUNTvxlwO61iiqNniaoUK3sfZ5mwue8zT1ugz_Y6UEZ0JePutJpY0lpHN5iICMX-W0n8uFkXdSvm4l1TYJxbKrSyDQ/s1600/Imported+Photos+00022.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 260px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiFxGApBBsn-VJkvDavGvUD0n6lvxxnBEapXYuRb0vjZejQ_cGBuUNTvxlwO61iiqNniaoUK3sfZ5mwue8zT1ugz_Y6UEZ0JePutJpY0lpHN5iICMX-W0n8uFkXdSvm4l1TYJxbKrSyDQ/s320/Imported+Photos+00022.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5636108968875339714" /></a><br />I've been wanting to make a wall hanging with positive affirmations to hang on my wall and I've also been collecting chipboard books from Maya Road. Well, I bought another one while at CKC-Houston a couple of weeks ago and decided the wait had been long enough. I started with my glimmer mist paints and painted the chipboard, then I covered it with beautiful black and white pattern papers, each in a different design. I used the <a href="http://thecuttingcafe.typepad.com/the_cutting_cafe/2011/04/you-color-my-worldprintable-stamp-set.html">You Color My World Sentiments</a> set from <a href="http://thecuttingcafe.typepad.com/">The Cutting Cafe</a> for the affirmations, then cut sentiment shapes from the Cricut Lacy Labels cartridges for each sentiment. This was such a fun project; all the ribbons and bling. It's going to be perfect on my wall.<br />Enjoy and TFSBKarensKreativeTreasureshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07460693509855841437noreply@blogger.com2
