Crazy 4 Challenges - Old Rock Day

It's Old Rock Day, I mean who knew?  I found out when Crazy 4 Challenges gave out the challenge for today.  The team was challenged to create something to do with a rock.  Could be a scene with mountains, Rock-n-Roll, stone style paper, a brick wall or a precious gem.  I knew I had the perfect die for a mountain scene - Outdoor Edges.  I had received a card with this sentiment and thought it would work with Cocoa the Horse.  The sun is setting, Cocoa is needing reading glasses, put out to pasture......ok enough right?

To follow along with the theme, I used the horse edge die from the Outdoor Edges set on the inside.  I used a black marker to trace around the sentiment and the horses to make them stand out more.

Karen Burniston Designer Challenge - Party Animals

It's time to party with Karen Burniston's Designer Challenge!  The Party Animals theme was set by Sandy Diller.  I got the idea for this card from a card that I had received for my birthday.  The card had a bunch of wacky bananas on the front that said "Go bananas, it's your birthday!"  I knew I wanted to use the Bananas embossing folder along with Jinks for this challenge.
The Oval Pull Card along, Pull Card Edges and Jinks are the main dies I used to make this wacky card.  I thought it would be more fun to have Jinks upside down because he's wacky like that. 

When you open the card, you see all of Jinks and the sentiment.  I used a Basic Black Stampin' Write Marker to selectively ink the parts of Just a Note and Lucky Birthday.

Karen Burniston Designer Challenge - All I want for Christmas

The theme for the Karen Burniston Designer Challenge is "All I want for Christmas" in the world of Pop it Ups.  So if I didn't already have all of the Pop it Ups dies, what die would I want or what die is my favorite?  Lorna Label is definitely one of my favorite dies as it's so versatile.
I kept the front simple with a stamped greeting and I traced around the die cut with markers.  I used liquid glue under the ribbon and to my surprise it shows the glue marks.......so enter the button and I think I might need to add another little something to cover the other little splotches.😏

 Here's one of my favorite characters, Rocky the Crab, sitting on the Adirondack Chair for his Florida Christmas!  Where else can Rocky go on Christmas but the beach?  He's all set with his santa hat, beard and mustache courtesy of Props 5.

 From the side you can see how Rocky fits perfectly into the chair; I added a little bit of glue to his top legs only and adhered it to the legs of the chair.
