TGF's Double Take Tuesday

Image
By
Hello!  I hope I've scheduled this right.  Daylight savings time stuff always throws me off.  We don't change here but I'm always confused what time it is on the mainland.

Anyway, it is time for The Greeting Farm's Double Take Tuesday.  It's a color challenge this week.  Use Red, Teal and White on your cards/projects.

I used the newly release Sadie for my card.  I stamped my own background using stamps from TGF.  The splotchy parts were heat embossed but in red, not white.  Hehe.  The sentiment says You're my kind of cool.  It was embossed in white.

So maybe you're thinking why her hair highlights are off.  That is what happens when I am coloring and then get interrupted a gazillion times by 3 kids.  I thought about redoing it but figured Sadie is cool enough to pull of this look. 

Okay, please hop over to the TGF blog to check out the rest of the team's creations and join in on the challenge!

Thanks for reading!

Kind of convenient that we don't change times either, just time zones.

Cool card, so neatly grungy! Ha ha, still can't reconcile you and messy! The hair looks nice!

Wonderful card and I wouldn't have noticed the highlights if you hadn't said something...thought it was just her coolness coming out in her hair!

What a sweetie and a fab background you created. I never knew highlights to be even...are they supposed to be?

TGF 3rd Annual Customer Blog Hop

By
Hi!  After finishing up these 2 projects for TGF's Blog Hop , I've come to realize that I am kind of addicted to stamps, especially TGF stamps.  Hehe.  Okay, I will not babble on too much since there are lots of other blogs to check out as well.  I made something for both categories, Holiday and General. First up is my Holiday card. I recently acquired Hippie Anya!  She inspired me to make a "peace" card for the holidays. But then I had to add Fleur Anya for "love" ... and 80s Anya for "joy."  So great that these stamps could be turned into something Christmas-y. My General project has been swimming in my mind ever since I made that counting book a while back with TGF stamps as well.  I thought I could make an ABC book too.  But I didn't make this into a book.  More like flashcards, I suppose.  My youngest has a hard time recognizing lower case letters so I thought this would be fun for him.  All stamps are TGF.  I ...

upcycling Pokemon wrappers

By
Hello everyone!  I am back with my latest sewing creations.  I have been playing around with plastic wrappers!  I've seen those upcycled plastic wrap bags and purses (usually made from Capri Sun package juice) but never really paid attention to them or how they were made until I saw this tutorial using the wrappers from Pokemon cards.  My boys love Pokemon cards and were just throwing the wrappers away but I started saving them and collected enough from their recent birthdays to make a couple of items.  Here is a little coin pouch (didn't want to call it a purse since it's for my youngest boy and he'd probably not like that).  This little pouch was made with 4 wrappers, 2 in front and 2 in back.  It is a bit tough to turn right side out because the wrappers and contact paper get stiff.  But it's possible and looks really neat!  I made it so he could hang it from the inside of his backpack and also carry around a little bit of emergency...
