Mystery Image Revealed



This card is for a Mystery Swap on SCS. A group of us are doing a bi-monthly swap where we all use the same mystery image, sent to us by the hostess. This swap was created by Forest Ranger—Jeanette and we are now into our second time around.  Melina is the hostess this month and she said she challenged us to use three images along with a sentiment on our card.  She will swap the cards and send everyone the next image, which will be provided by Jeanette.  That will be the start of round three and I know it will be another fun time!




Here is the inside of my card:

Dueling Darlings Love Our Leaders!


It is the 15th of the month and that means another Dueling Darlings challenge.  Our hostess this month for the entire group is Melina.  We have lost a few members in the past few months and have an uneven number of members on each team.  Melina stepped up this month and sent a challenge to the Divas and then a different challenge to the Dazzlers. 

The Diva theme is in honor of our leader Kelly.  We were asked to use animals as our theme and then to be sure to add a button on our card.  Kelly loves animals and we all know she loves her Riley’s!  So, that was an easy choice for me.  And, I too love buttons and have a couple of drawers of them—so I had a few choices there too!

The sentiment was not hard either as I am so grateful to be a part of this group and even more grateful to call Kelly a friend!  She is so kind, funny, creative, inspirational, a great mom, loving wife, wonderfully spiritual, a caring friend and my list could go on and on and on………………..  Now-the one thing I need to hope for is that we get to meet in real life sometime—that is on my bucket list!

So—Kels—this one is for you!


 Here is the inside of my card.

Image/Sentiment—Stamping Riley/Stampin’ Up Small Script

Ink—SU Chocolate Chip; Memento Tuxedo Black

 Paper—SU Chocolate Chip, Really Rust; Gina K White, Turquoise Sea; Simple Stories Harvest Faire Made with Love & Handmade Happiness patterned papers

Accessories—SU Oval Punches; Rust Brads; Brown Button with Rust Twine; Brown Grosgrain Ribbon;  Copic Markers;

 Please be sure to stop in to see what all of the Divas as well the Dazzlers have created this month.  All of the blogs are on the left sidebar of my blog.  I am sure you will enjoy all of the creations for our leaders! Thanks for joining us!!!!!!

Unidentified Swap-Happiness House Mouse


This is the card for the 3rd round an Unidentified Image swap on SCS.  It is a group of ladies who are a part of a bi-monthly swap where we all use the same image, sent to us by the hostess.  The unidentified part is that we to not discuss the image at all until the day they are to be posted--today!  The images for this round were provided Janet.  She will swap the cards and include the next image that Terry, our next hostess, provides in our return envie.  And then we get to do it all again!!!!

I have a few House Mouse stamps, but not this one.  Isn’t it cute!  I think the soft pink colors are a perfect accessory for the image!  I am not sure if you can see it, but I used a clear glitter pen on the little guy’s ears and face!  I also like the multi-color baker's twine as it has pink, green and brown in it.

Image/Sentiment—House Mouse Take Time to Smell the Flowers/SU Warm Words

Cardstock— Stampin’ Up Blushing Bride, Early Espresso, Pear Pizzazz;  Blushing Bride Designer Series Paper

Ink—SU Blushing Bride; Memento Black

Accessories—SU Blushing Bride Satin Pleated Ribbon; Pink Brad; Pink Mini Buttons w/tri-colored bakers twine; Oval Punches; Copic Markers; Spica Glitter Pen

Unidentified Image Swap ~ Round 2


This is the card for our new Unidentified Image swap on SCS.  It is a group of ladies who are a part of a bi-monthly swap where we all use the same mystery image, sent to us by the hostess.  The images for this round, our second, were provided Kelly.  She will swap the cards and include the next image that Janet, our next hostess, provides in our return envie. And then we get to do it all again!!!!

Kelly (she is MiamiKel4 on SCS) sent us this Kraftin’ Kimmie image, Florence and she chose her for two reasons—she wanted to see how we all come up with a beach/ocean/Florida (etc.) using her (remember Kelly’s SCS name!) Also, Kelly noted that locally one of the missions is to stop the destruction of Biscayne Bay’s National Park where animals have natural habitats, protected sea areas and coral rocks—home to thousands of plant and animal species that will be uprooted and displaced.  Kelly told us to do our best work as our cards might be displayed this summer at a local exhibit as part of a collage.

For the coloring of the images, I used some materials I have not used in ages—my Stampin’ Up Markers as well as my SU Stamping Pastels, which I used a dauber to add color around the image and inside the nestie that I used.  I colored Florence’s face with a colored pencil.  I like how the Labels 8 matches the SU Top Note shape.


Image/Sentiment—Kraftin’ Kimmie Florence/SU Warm Words

Cardstock— Stampin’ Up Certainly Celery and Baja Breeze; Kaisercraft Spirograph Harmonic and Spiro Patterned Papers

Ink—SU Baja Breeze

Accessories—SU Markers and Stamping Pastels; Colored Pencil; Nestie Labels 8; SU Oval Punches; Blue Button with Bakers Twine
