Stempel Spass

Hi Everyone, its Inspiration Day at STAMPlorations ! Of course I had to get inspired somewhere and what would be better than the Muse for that??? Michele Ferguson created this beautiful card (see below) - and immediately it reminded me about the ARTplorations stencil from STAMPlorations. I pulled out some wood paper and smeared embossing paste on it. Let it dry and added the embellishments. I could not resist to add the big red enamel dot - It HAD to be there.... So, are you going to be inspired to CASE my CASE????  Go for it!  There are prizes to win - just go over to   STAMPlorations and check it out! Also adding this card to Dazzling Divas challenge #62 Materials:                            ARTPlorations Stencils - Shutters       Art Deco Border Builders

There is a new sketch challenge going on at STAMPlorations  for the next two weeks. You don't have to have STAMPlorations stamps in order to participate, but you have to use stamps - that should not be to hard to do.... I used the pretty  VIGNETTE set -  Art Deco Border Builders  for this card. It looks so elegant.  I added tiny little gems to add some sparkle. The sentiment is from the same set and is attached with foam tape. There are 3 challenges every month. Participating in all 3 challenges will put you in the running to win a prize package from our sister shop,  All About Scrapping . One winner will be randomly picked and announced the following month. Each project you enter gets you 1 entry. You may enter 3 times per challenge, which means you can have up to 9 entries in the random prize drawing. Since its the first time I have used this set I am also participating in the Simon Says challenge  - work it Wednesday...
