Today's Lunchtime Challenge!

It was another football weekend at the LeFevre household and the season seems to be flying by much too quickly for my liking.  Probably because this is Ben's last year playing and there have been too many "last times" lately.

Time for today's Techno Stamper Lunchtime Sketch Challenge and I hope you will find time out of your busy schedule to play along this week!  Below is the sketch, and you can load your card HERE.

Techno Stamper Challenge

Sorry I am posting this so late in the day.  For some reason my card "disappeared" from the Techno Stamper Monday Lunchtime Challenge Blog, and now it has reappeared!  So moving forward....we have a fun challenge from you and the sketch is shown below.  After you have created your card, you can simply post it HERE.



I used the set, Secret Garden, and the matching die framelits for my project.  I love the fact that I don't have to cut flowers anymore!  The flowers were stamped using Crisp Cantaloupe and I used the Bird Punch to create the leaves using Pistachio Pudding c/s.  Here's a list of what I used:

Stamps: Secret Garden, Hearts A Flutter
Inks: Crisp Cantaloupe, Pistachio Pudding, Soft Suede
Papers: Very Vanilla, Crisp Cantaloupe, Pistachio Pudding
Accessories: Big Shot, Textured Impressions EF, Hearts a Flutter Framelits, Bird Punch, Crisp Cantaloupe Ribbon, Pearls, Dimensionals

Try Stampin' on Tuesday Challenge

It's a very hot Tuesday here in the Chicagoland area.  I work part-time as a lunch supervisor at my children's old school, and am very thankful that we had indoor recess today!

This week's sketch is shown below, and as you can see, you also need to add circles somewhere on your project!  When you are finished, you can load your card HERE.

I made a card for one of my co-workers for my project.  The flowers were stamped with Calypso Coral ink and then cut out.  I cut a piece of Very Vanilla c/s 2-1/2" x 3" and then centered the rectangular Designer Frames EF on the c/s and ran it through my Big Shot; creating a frame for the flowers.  I hope this counts, but the pearls and the Tea for Two DSP that I used for one of the butterflies are my circles!  Here's a list of what I used:

Stamps: Field Flowers, Express Yourself (saying)
Inks: Calypso Coral, Lucky Limeade, Soft Suede
Papers: Very Vanilla, Soft Suede, Tea for Two DSP
Accessories: Big Shot, Designer Frames EF, Lacy Brocade EF, Bitty Banners Framelits, Beautiful Wings Embosslits, Very Vanilla Ribbon, Pearls, Vintage Trinket, Distressing Tool, Dimensionals, Mini-Glue Dots, Sponges

LNS Challenge

We have a fun, 2 week, LNS challenge for you!  Now that school is back in full swing, the challenge is to make a teacher's gift!  Once you have created your teacher's gift, you can simply load it HERE!

Since my kids are in college and high school, I had to think about this a little bit and came up with a post-it-note holder.  I covered two 4"x4" coasters with Whisper White c/s and colored in the flower image with Old Olive and Rich Razzleberry SU! markers.  Here's a list of what I used:

Stamps: Just Believe
Markers: Old Olive, Rich Razzleberry
Papers: Whisper White, Old Olive, Rich Razzleberry
Accessories: Pearls, Old Olive Ribbon, Sponges Sticky Strip Tape, Post It Note, Coasters

We have another fun sketch for you on the Monday Lunchtime Sketch Challenge blog!  It's going to be very hot here in the Chicagoland area, and I wish I could stay inside and stamp.....it's going to be a cooker out on the playground - 95 tomorrow!  This has been one odd summer!  Below is the sketch and where you have created your work of art, you can load it: HERE



I did another Halloween theme card for my sketch today and used the retired set, Booglie Eyes.  I stamped the witch image on Very Vanilla c/s using a black StazOn inkpad.  I used Pumpkin Pie, Summer Starfruit, Baked Brown Sugar, Smoky Slate, and Pistachio Pudding to watercolor the image.  The image was then cut out using a Windows Frame Framelit; I then added the stars and used Witches' Brew DSP for the background papers.  Here is a list of what I used:
