Tanis' challenge for Tuesday-a little blurry photo

I started out with a SU very vanilla base. I added a square of SU Baja Breeze embossed with Cuttlebug Swiss Dots. Then a strip of SU Kiwi Kiss and a strip of 5th Avenue Sophia Geofloral. Then a rectangle of SU Not Quite Navy and a square of SU Kiwi Kiss embossed with Cuttlebug Spots and Dots. I added a flower(unknown source) with a sei pastel blue rhinestone brad. The sentiment is from the Lucky You stamp set from Queen Kat Designs. Details are here http://paperprincessatplay.blogspot.com/ The birthday party is still going on and you can still get in on the prizes all month long!

Still celebrating with the Queen!

Happy 3rd birthday to Queen Kat Designs! The challenge today is here:http://paperprincessatplay.blogspot.com/ and this is my entry:
My 3 elements are the happy birthday stamp(Studio G) stamped in SU Gable Green, Gelly Roll glitter pen over the stamped image and pale yellow ribbon. I used the Marvy scallop punches and the DP is from a Sophie paper pad(Marcella by K and Co.) The cardstock is Berry Sorbet and Lemon Tart by Papertrey Ink and the blue cardstock is Bazill but I don't know the color name.
Thanks for looking! See ya back here for more challenges cause they are partying all month long at the Castle!

I am trying My Space!

http://www.myspace.com/craftysteph Find me on MySpace and be my friend! I might just flop at My Space. I am hooked on blogs!

This month is Queen Kat Designs 3rd birthday and today's challenge was to add them as a friend. It only took me 30 minutes to set up my page so it's pretty plain so far.

So many contests this week!

So, Sylvie heard that I entered 12 cards in the Verve Stamp challenges. She was so interested in all the different sketches. She said "They are all so yummy!"
The suspense was torture! Will my Aunt Steph WIN? There were lots of great stamp sets to be given away and nobody needs more stamps MORE than Aunt Steph!


Then the announcements were made. All of the prizes were given away. Aunt Steph did not win anything this time! Sylvie was beside herself!

But Steph will be back with more entries in lots of challenges cause that's the way we roll! We are not quitters! Thanks for checking out my Aunt Steph's blog and we both hope you will come back for more cards and quite possibly, more comments from me, Sylvie. AND if you are lucky, more photos of my sweet face too.

There is a sketch to follow. I used Designer Paper from 3 Bugs in a rug and Bazzill cardstock. The stamp is SU Life's Special Moments and SU Chocolate Chip ink. I added a brushed copper brad. This party is going on all month with new challenges every week and they give great stamps as prizes. Hope you get to participate in this party!
