La La Land Weekly Wednesday Challenge 10-Ribbon!

Holy Bat Cave! I love Martha's bat punch can you tell?

Challenge #10 this week at La la Land Crafts Blog is ribbon. I had an idea come to me in my sleep for this challenge, unfortunately this is NOT what I had in mind...maybe another card sometime. I added this fun orange polka dot ribbon to this card and YIKES...it was wayyyy too bright and wayyyy too stuck to take off...What's a stamper to do? I took a little chocolate chip ink and a sponge and toned it down a lot. Viola!

Now, I know Irina will make a card with some amazing bow on it-she is good with ribbon like that...can't wait to see what this challenge brings.

Stamps and Smiles Sketch

La La Land Weekly Wednesday Challenge #9-Sparkle

Sparkle is very hard to capture in a photo, but the stars on Maya's wizard robe are very "glittery"! I was so pleased when I finished this card...the sparkle really does add that extra touch. So I bet you have figured out that Challenge #9 on La~La Land Crafts blog this week is SPARKLE.

This was a fun card to make with all this fun Halloween Bo Bunny DP to set off the darling Maya image. I just love that bold orange and black tree DP..so fun! (and I am not known for liking orange much...)

I used Beate's WSC102 for the sketch lay out of this card. I also used an Inkadinkadoo spider web stamp for the inside.

La La Land Crafts Blog Christmas Release Reveal

Wow, did we ever have a fun blog hop last week! Whiskers finally gets to show off today!


You can see at the top what the actual stamp looks like and see that the little bird got a dye job for this card and became a red robin with a Santa hat! Just gotta mix it up a little to show how each stamp can be used for many different seasons. Whiskers could be drinking coffee, tea, or cocoa during any season of the year. I had some stickers that I received in some junk mail with little Santa hats and they just happened to fit little birdie perfectly! Made for a fun little winter card.

Make sure to visit La-La Land Crafts blog and La-La Land Crafts Store to check out the new releases and find out who won the big blog candy that is being given away today.

You will be able to see all the newly released stamps tomorrow at the store and samples made with the new stamps on the blog! I am looking forward to viewing all the cards made with the new holiday stamps too!


I want to thank you all for stopping by and making this a FUN hop...and now on to my blog candy...............

LLWWC7-Color Combo +

The challenge this week on La La Land Weekly Wednesday Challenge really seemed hard, but it turned out to be one of the easiest cards I have made in a while...it all went together so easily. I love it when that happens!

This week the challenge is:

Color Combo-Red, Brown and Cream (Strawberries, Chocolate and Cream)
2 Different DP's
Paper Piercing
Embossing (dry or heat)
Scallops


I used Rosie with cat for this week's card. I even added a wee bit of paper piecing on her shirt.
This card is pretty straight forward, so not much to describe.

I am going to offer some blog candy this week!

The winner of Trick or Treat Lala will be picked out of the hat from the comments left on this post by October 6th. I will post the winner on next week's La La Land's Weekly Wednesday Challenge post.

La La Land Weekly Wednesday Challenge-Paper Piecing

This week's challenge on La La Land's Weekly Wednesday Challenge is paper piecing. Okay, Okay...I admit to only piecing the broom, so is that cheating? Nawww.....

Actually, this witch was just too much fun to color to add too much piecing! I have to tell you, these images have taught me so much about my copics! And...I really wish all my stamps created such wonderful images. I really am a red rubber girl!

I got out all of my Halloween punches, stamps and papers and decided it was time to play with them...How fun! On this card I used some Debbee Mumm DP, and added Witch on the Broom Rosie on dimensionals. The black oval I put through a cuttlebug spider embossing folder.

There are lots of stampers joining our Wednesday challenge, you don't have to use a La La Land image, but it really is a bonus for us to get to see Irina's stamps "in action". Come join us with your paper piecing for this week's challenge.
