Crazy 4 Challenges C4C454 - Fall

We have made it to the end of September and that means it's my final week to be hostess for the Crazy 4 Challenges team.  My final challenge for the team is to make a fall card.  The team will be putting leaves, or trees with beautiful fall colors, or anything that says fall to them.

I started off by embossing a piece of cardstock with the new Tin Tile Dynamic Embossing Folder and sponging some black ink around the edges.  I applied the owl sticker to a piece of Whisper White and used colored pencils to color him in.

I used the Transfer Sheet to apply the negative image of the owl to the inside of my card.

Happy Stampin',

Crazy 4 Challenges - Birthday Card with Numbers

It's time for a birthday challenge with Crazy 4 Challenges.  I've challenged the team to make a birthday card and put numbers on it.  I admit that I have an ulterior motive for setting this challenge - it's my son Jake turns 12 next week!
So I set forth to search my stash for pattern paper with numbers and got busy creating.  He can climb trees like nobody's business and I used to say he can climb like a monkey.....hence the monkey stamp.

I used Karen Burniston's Katherine Label Pop Up to animate another monkey and the sentiment.  I also added another strip of the numbered patterned paper and made the "12" stand out by adding a star as I did on the front.

When the card opens fully, the sentiment panel and monkey move up to the top of the card!  It's so much fun and I love the up-side-down monkey with the googley eyes.

Crazy 4 Challenges - Sketch

It's the third Saturday of the month and that means it's a sketch challenge with Crazy 4 Challenges.  I chose the artistic freedom to swap the circle for a square LOL.  I stamped the trio of flowers using the Petal Palette stamp set from Stampin' Up!

Karen Burniston's Paper Pros - Spots

The Paper Pros are seeing spots!  The team was challenged to make a card using spots since they work so well on cards.  I found this glittered spotty pattern paper in my stash.....and I was off creating my spotty card!
I wanted to make a sweet kitty card, so I pulled out Karen Burniston's Cat and Dog die set.  My kitty is ready to celebrate with her party hat and present using the Birthday Charms die set.  I stamped a sentiment from my stash onto a Katherine Label.

For the inside I made a cupcake filled tree using the Tree Pop Up and the Birthday Charms die set.  I used Word Set 2 for the sentiment and adhered it following the curve of the paper that was cut using Nature Edges.

Crazy 4 Challenges - Grandparents Day

Welcome back to my second week of hosting the Crazy 4 Challenges team!  It's grandparents day this month, so I challenged the team to make a card to show someone you love them or to show appreciation for what they do for you.  I know that my son is truly blessed to have such wonderful grandparents.
I used the interactive stamp and Thinlit set called You Move Me.  When you pull up on the center piece, the hummingbird appears to be fluttering!

Crazy 4 Challenges - Technique

I am hosting the Crazy 4 Challenges this month!  I set the challenge to make a card using any technique.  I thought I would try out the Bokeh technique as a masculine card.
