KL Stampin N' Scrappin Saturday Challenge




Hello Everyone and Happy Saturday!

Today the KL Stampin N' Scrappin team has a new challenge in store for you. This weeks theme is to SEW on your cards! You can apply hand stitching, use your sewing machine or add faux stitches, it doesn't matter, get creative and have fun with the challenge:)

I know that you have to be sick and tired of me apologizing for being MIA but I can't explain what is going on with me at the moment. I just feel "down" and my energy levels are at an all time low at the moment. I'm going to buy me some vitamins and make a doctor's appointment. I think my hormones are acting up or something and I just want to feel "like myself" again and soon. Smiley from millan.net


Getting back to the challenge, I made my card with a newer C.C. Designs image. The stamp is designed by Amy Young and the name of my image is Peter Rabbit. (A Sweet November Stamp) Kelly's on-line store carries a range of newer C.C. Designs and other popular stamps as well. You have a week to complete your card for this weeks challenge and can combine our KLSNS Challenge with other challenges. You are not required to use KLSNS Stamps, but if you have them, please use them:) The deadline for next weeks challenge is Friday, March 26, at 12 midnight est.

Morning Risa! Your card is super duper CUTENESS!! Love this adorable "shy" bunny and LOVE all those fabulous layers all sewn up. Great sketch too!

I'm so sorry you're not feeling well. I went way too long like that and it ended up being my thyroid, which is very common! The normal hormones levels are suppose to be between .5 and 4 and mine was 11.7!! No wonder I was so tried every day! Will be a good thing to get it checked out. Hope you get your hop back in your step soon!! Hugs xXx

Hi Risa...hope you are feeling better soon. I certainly know how it is to lose your steam. I recently completed chemo treatments for breast cancer and have yet come back to my full potential. I know the reasons are from my illness but I feel guilty most times because I label it as laziness. Anyway, can you please tell me how you accomplish the shading around your images? You do such a nice job.
Thanks,
Donna

Corie said...

Tina said...
