Summer Bookmark for MIL

This is for today's COLOR CHALLENGE # 390 - Lime Razzle Delight , Monday's TECHNIQUE LOVERS CHALLENGE # 392 - Fold Over Bookmark and Monday's CLEAN AND SIMPLE CHALLENGE # 185 - Theme Summer Treats which for me is the BEACH since I never have like melons and ice cream is not on my list of items I can have.

I think my Mojo has gone on a sabatical for an extended period of time. I may need to just sit back and enjoy the galleries for a few days until it returns. I just seem to be struggling in my efforts lately not only with what to make, what to use but finding the time to make something has been an issue as well. Early & long days at work are NOT helping either.

If I am AWOL for sometime please forgive me and let me back in when I return :( 
Anyway this dp was just too pretty to cover up so I saved all of my detail creations for the inside. I folded the bottom edge of the lucky limeade cs up 1 inch to make a pocket for the bookmark to slide in. I left 1/2 inch on the bottom edge of the backside of the bookmark. I will give this to my MIL in November for her birthday. She reads a lot and I hope she will like it.

Fond Memories of Home Ec

This is for today's SKETCH CHALLENGE # 399, Tuesday's COLOR CHALLENGE # 389 - Bravo Regal Starfruit, Monday's TECHNIQUE LOVERS CHALLENGE # 391 - No Stamping and Monday's CLEAN AND SIMPLE CHALLENGE # 184 - Inspired by the word SCHOOL. So often we always tend to think of pre-k, Kindergarden and grade school when we think of school. I do not remember much of my early education years but I do remember the fun I had in home ec class in the 10th grade. My mother raised me and a 3yr older brother of mine alone after the divorce when I was 3yrs old and so she worked 2 and 3 jobs just to make ends meet. That did NOT allow for a lot of home cooking so we ate out A LOT. Eating out does not allow for a daughter to learn how to cook from her mother so I learned a lot in home ec class plus had fun too boot. LOL.
I found this Rose Wild "Cherry Cupcake" dp and went wild with it.
I used my quickutz cupcake die and all 3 colors of cs to make it. I covered the cherry with glaze.
The sentiment is handwritten but please don't tell Shannon, she does not like it when I do that. LOL.
RECIPE:
Stamps: none :(
Paper: white, bravo burgandy, regal rose, summer starfruit, Wild Rose "Cherry Cupcake" dp

Pre-K Grad

This is for today's TECHNIQUE LOVERS CHALLENGE # 391 - No Stamping!. eeekkk. I have not touched a stamp in 7 whole days and now I still can not touch a stamp. OK so after I picked myself off the floor I went to today's CLEAN AND SIMPLE CHALLENGE # 184 - Inspired by SCHOOL and redeemed myself as the ideas began to flow.
I knew I had this "GRADE SCHOOL" dp from DCWV and I thought I had an apple die big enough to meet my needs but as luck would have it "NOT" so I hand drew my school bus, cut it out and popped it up. I used buttons for the headlights.
My layout is from Saturday's SWEET STOP SKETCHES # 172.
I used a sticker from EK Success "The Grad" for my sentiment. I have a pre-k and a Kindergarden grandchild this year so one of them will be getting this at the end of this school year.
Now off to work and back to reality after a fabulous weekend at the beach.

Brayered Silhouette Thank You

This is for today's SKETCH CHALLENGE # 397.
My color combo is from Tuesday's COLOR CHALLENGE # 387 - Old Midnight Ripples.
Today I used a technique for backgrounds from the tutorial section called BRAYERED SKY for Monday's BLISSFUL BACKGROUNDS where we were to pick from the many choices of background tutorials available here at SCS. I started way off the paper to tone the dark colors down some and added some sponging to fill in the gaps then stamped the image from Serene Silhouettes in midnight muse. I used my Marvy Mega Scallop Circle punch. My dp is from The Paper Studio "Classics" stack. I tried to find a sentiment that read "you put a song in my heart" and could not so I grabbed Because I Care and changed to a Thank You card.

In my search on Monday I found this one that I wanted to try called STRIPED WIPE TUTORIAL.  It is one of Beate's many fabulous creations and it used a baby wipe folded and re-inkers along the edge then swipe the wipe across glossy card stock which is what I did using today's 3 colors.
Then I stamped the image from Serene Silhouettes in midnight muse and matted on midnight muse. My base is old olive and the sentiment from Close as a Memory is stamped in midnight muse. I tied some raspberry ripple ribbon and was done. How much more CAS can I make it? LOL.
