Birthday Celebrations with Stretch n' Bubbles Shop!

Hello everybody! Tanis here with your challenge for this round and it's a fun one - Birthdays! I know I'm always looking for unique cards to celebrate each one of my friends and family. And this time around, we've got a sponsor - meaning you've got an opportunity to win FOUR Stretch n' Bubbles images of your choice as extra incentive.

A little about our sponsor...

I really started “Scrapbooking/Card making” in 1996 when my dear friend Lisa Bearnson introduced to her new magazine Creating Keepsakes.. after that I was HOOKED!.. I do both scrapbooking and card making.. I have been published in many magazines, worked for Creating Keepsakes as a designer for products sold on QVC, and won many contests. I am the owner of Do You Stack Up?! Challenge blog, Free Digital Stamps blog, & Stretch N' Bubbles Digital Stamps blog/store. I quickly fell in love with the idea of digital stamps. Not having to find a spot to keep them,being able to get your product instantly, and buying one size fit's all.. I was on board! I have never taken an art class.. I just started doodling and putting them online. My free digital stamps within 2-3 days were getting 500 downloads, so I  thought if there were that many people who liked my designs. I should start a little store.. and Stretch N' Bubbles was born.. Now you might ask yourself, how did you get the name Stretch N' Bubbles? Well my dad "poppie" gives all the grandchildren "magic names" and my son's magic name is Stretch, and yep you guessed it..my daughters magic name is "Bubbles".. so I put them together and came up with that name.. Thanks so much to all of you for helping support my dream..HUGS

And now, a little creative inspiration from the Sistahs...





 
You will have until noon (MT) on October 23rd to link your creations for a chance to win the four images of your choice!

JUST A REMINDER:

  • Make sure to link directly to the blog post entry, not your blog
  • Your entry follows the theme
  • Finally... we request only THREE entries per challenge PLEASE!!

Silhouette Top Sister and Top 3

Good Evening everyone,

I'm a little behind with this post due to having worked late, sigh.

I just want to say that Silhouette creations are my favorite and I can honestly say that each and every submission was a joy to see. Every one's projects just made me clap my hands at having chosen this type of challenge.

Now without further ado, our Top Sister award go to...........


Isn't that cat with that wonderful moon awesome? Those cat eyes.... lol!

Now to the Top 3 winners....


Ladies, don't forget to grab your badges from the sidebar! Thanks to everyone for playing!

Love that Silhouette

Hi Everyone,

It's time for another challenge here in the Sisterhood.
For this challenge we decided to go with SILHOUETTE style stamps.

SILHOUETTE or shadow stamps make beautiful focal points and smaller stamps can be used to borders, accents or anything else. If you like to create your own backgrounds, such as wrinkle free distress these type of stamps are perfect. Even plain white card stock paired with a silhouette stamp portrays timeless elegance.... so the sky is the limit. And in my case, when the craft mojo is no where to be found, using silhouette stamps is a fail safe for me :-)

Before I share our creations, just a reminder of our challenge rules:
Your project must use a silhouette (shadow) stamp on your project. Please link back to this blog and there is a 3 project limit.

This challenge will be open until Sunday, October 9th. The top sister and three runners up will be announced Tuesday evening - October 11th.

Ready for some inspiration? Check out what the rest of the girls came up with:





Micki - me :-)

Now it's your turn...... remember you have until Sunday, October 9th to link up! Can't wait to see what you create!

Flower Power

Hey ladies, it's Diane here with your next challenge. It's a pretty easy one just use a flower on your project. I live in Oklahoma and we have had the hottest summer in a long time. Breaking many records for the highest temps. So our flowers here are suffering from the heat but we can make them come alive on our craft projects.

We have a great sponsor this week. Judy over at Pizzazz Aplenty is offering up a prize package of embellishments valued at $10. The prize will be given via Random.org so everyone who enters the challenge has a shot at it.



Pizzazz Aplenty carries embellishments, be sure to check out her store.

Now on to some inspiration from the Sisters.
