DDH 11 Recipe Challenge - Week 2


Here we are at Week 2 of Teresa's Recipe Challenge of 3 buttons, 2 patterned papers and a ribbon. 

My card has two pieces of Emma SWIC Collection from TAC.  The green circle background is part of the paper collection, as is the stripped paper.  My DDH image is from the set called Spring Sprigs.  But I chose to make it a pink/salmon color to match the paper.  The ribbon is also from the Emma collection.  The saying, "I picked this just for you!" is from the DDH set, Lion.

 

I colored my flower with Copics R22, R32, R85, RV41, G94, G99, YR24, E99.  I used the Spellbinders Eyelet Circles and Circles for the die cuts.


You still have this week to add your Recipe Card to the DDH Blog and join the fun.  You might be chosen in our random drawing to win a free DDH set.  If you use a DDH image, you will also be entered into a second drawing.  Looking forward to seeing your creation. 

Also be sure to check out the DDH Dream Team Designers' blogs to see what they made this week.  You can see the list on the right side bar.

August Blog Hop - Primary Colors/School


For the Digi Design House August blog hop we are featuring primary colors and a school theme.  It is perfect for the DDH stamp set, School Time.  I decided to make a waterfall card, which would be fun for a school child. 



I used solid primary colored cardstock for the card and used computer-generated words for the saying.  Buttons were the only added accent.


You can see each section of the waterfall card as you pull the center section down.




Here's a close-up of the front flap.


 
Like all our DDH Hops, there are FREE sets up for grabs today too! Simply leave a comment on the Dream Team blogs to be entered for your chance to win a SURPRISE not-yet-released DDH set!

Thanks for looking at my card.  Now I know you will want to continue on the blog hop and see all the DDH Designers' card.  Here is the blog order:

Blog Hop - Stamping on Fabric


Welcome to the TAC Blog Hop for August.  Our projects this month are all Stamping on Fabric.  I made a card using T3492 New Creation.  It is stamped on unbleached muslin with Memento Tuxedo Black and colored with Copics YR15, YR18, E19, Y04, Y06, Y12.



I wasn't sure how Copics would work on fabric, but they did pretty good!  They blended but not as smoothly as on paper.  I tried not to go too near the edge so they would not bleed over the lines. 



The background card is from the Miss Moxie cardstock and the paper and brads are also from Miss Moxie collection.  I also added a couple of lines with the Scor-Bug at the bottom of the card.

Now it is your turn.  Link your Stamping on Fabric creation to the Savvy Projects Blog and join the fun.

Thursday Inspiration



For Thursday Inspiration we chose the song "Celebration" by Kook and the Gang for
the inspiration for our cards. The new DDH set that was just added called Groovy Girls is the perfect set for this song. These girls seem to be dancing and celebrating, and I can just see them keeping the beat with with music, can't you?



My images are colored with Copic markers.  I made the girls are all different races, and I had fun coloring their skin appropriately.  I framed the images with a Spellbinders Scalloped Edge Frame and flowers.  The colorful background cardstock is Tutti Fruit Classic collection from The Angel Company.

Can  you join us today by creating a card inspired by the song "Celebration"?  Or take a few minutes and view the cards made by the DDH design team and comment on theirs for a change to win a prize in our drawing today.  You will find the design team listed on the side bar of my blog.  
May your day be an inspiration to you!

Wednesday Wishes



It is Wednesday, and the DDH Design Team has chosen Birthday Wishes for today. And since this is one of our Dream Team Designers' birthday, I am dedicating this post to Hannah Clark.  HAPPY BIRTHDAY TODAY, HANNAH!  I hope your day is a blessing!

My card uses two DDH stamp sets - Live, Love and Laugh; and It's Your Day.



The lady's dress is paper pieced with Miss Moxie SWIC paper collection from The Angel Company.  I used the Spellbinders Eyelet Circles die for the cake and sentiment.  Copic colors used to color the cake are V04, V06, Y35, Y38, R24, R29.


It's your turn now.  Link a Birthday card to the DDH blog (maybe you can use a DDH stamp set!) for a chance to win a prize in our daily drawing, or just take a few minutes to comment on all the DDH Designers' cards.  You will find the Design team listed on the side bar of my blog.
