Tutorial Time on Speedy TV

Speedy TV Tutorial Time Challenge is "Faux Silk" technique.
I really like doing this and so easy...the only thing I would change is I would wait to let the tissue paper to dry before coloring my image.
I like the texture it creates. This technique would be perfect for so many stamp set...

Oriental Sketch Challenge

A new challenge has started on Speedy Tv and it's "Oriental Sketch"
This the first time that I ever made a card with the oriental feel to it...
I had this paper that I received in a paper swap, it's very thin paper so I backed it on Gold paper.  I couldn't decide which way to put my strip of paper so as I looked at it it does look like a Kimono Robe (somewhat).

Inspiration Challenge # 28

"Cookies" is the Inspiration Challenge on Speedy TV ...I just loved the blue one (which is my favorite color) so it wasn't hard to pick one this week.
I also loved the shapes of the cookies (tea cup & tea pot).
I had the perfect stamp for the tea cup and added the swirls in blue..
I also like the soft combo color of blues with my paper and flowers.

Simple Salutatons Challenge # 62

"Thinking of you" is my simple salutations for my card...as I was making this card I was thinking of the lives that was lost on 9/11.  My heart went to the families that lost a loved one.  That will never be forgotten!
Made my card from kraft cardstock and stamped with brown ink, added a simple flower and a border.

Tutorial Time on Speedy TV Challenge 65

This week on Speedy TV Tutorial Time is to do "Altered Clipboard".
I made mini ones and added post-it pads...These turned out so cute I think I'm going to make more for the co-worker at the school that I work at.
There is so many nice designer and pattern papers out there the sky is the limit.
I had a great time matching the pad with my paper and ribbon.

Inspiration Challenge # 27

Speedy TV Inspriation Challenge is "Food Art".  Each picture was fantastic and a hard choice to make but I love strawberries!  So I made my card with a strawberry and also used the color combo (red, green & tan) from the inspiration picture.
I also think the ribbon that is sticking behind the circle made me think of the snake's tongue...LOL

Simple Salutations # 61

"Time" is the topic for Simple Salutations Challenge on Speedy TV.  I used
"Time will heal..." as the sentiment for my card. It could go for a sympathy or a get well card, the color for my card looks more for a male.
I will put this card in my save box and use it when I need this type of card.
Now it's "time" for you to go and check out this challenge at:
