Hello my dear friends! Well, as some of you already know, the fabulous TGF Relay had to come to an abrupt end. With the AMAZING amount of entries, the website couldn't handle it all and kept crashing! Hey, if a website has to crash, having too many people on it is a good way! I wanted to show you the other projects I made for the relay. The first image given to us was Mer-Ian!
Isn't he wonderful? I am so happy to now have a partner for my Mermaid Anya Stamp! I used fun blues and green to color him in and then used him on another conversation hearts candy box.
I printed out the sentiment and cut it out to make it look "wavy". Then added pearls randomly all over the DP. Here is a pic of the candy box open:
The Third and final image given to the relay-ers (is that a word?) was adorable Toby Cub! I used him, along with some Cosmo Cricket Cardstock Stickers to decorate a picture frame:
I'm not sure if I'll give this to someone as a gift, or just use it for one of my boys' baby pictures. We'll just have to see.
In other news; tomorrow is my last day as Guest DT member with
Anyone for Anya. My card will be posted on their blog tomorrow along with the new challenge for the week. I will post my card on here as well, even though it should be Scenic Sunday, because I haven't taken any good scenic photos lately. lol! Hope to see you all back here tomorrow, and thanks for stopping by!
Be Blessed!
I decided to use the ethnic skin tones to qualify this card for the Copic Creations Challenge #20 and because I've been wanting to expand my stamped images beyond the classic E00 & E21 Caucasian colored skin. Here is the card in whole so you can see the fabulous sketch:
I used October Afternoon DP from their Farm Fresh paper pack along with SU! very vanilla, kraft, chocolate chip, and close to cocoa card stock. The maroon colored velvet ribbon is actually a tab that I cut off some curtains awhile ago. I knew I'd use them in a project someday! Oh, I actually masked Ian and Anya so it would look like Anya was standing behind Ian. I got that idea from a challenge during TGF's big release, but didn't get a chance to actually participate in the challenge. I love masking though, it gives such an awesome affect! Also, the buttons on Ian are teeny tiny ones from my stash, there is a MM brad in his hat, Anya has Kaiser pearls for a necklace, and a MM heart brad on her hat. What do you all think? This card came out exactly as planned! Woohoo!

I love her sassy attitude and I thought this sentiment from TGF's "Talk Loud" stamp set fit perfecto! I better get this linked as the deadline is in about 15 minutes... and I'm about 3 hours late for my bedtime! Come back soon, I miss my Blogging Buddies... where are you all???
I made this fun candy box holder for the challenge on the Club Anya and Friends blog, and while I had it done on time, I didn't upload it for an entry in time! Oh well. I loved making this and have since made TWO more! I plan on making these for the kids' class parties, but we'll see how intricate those turn out to be. Here is a view of the treat box with the candy popping out:
In order to get to the Candy Conversation hearts, you slide the ribbon up! That's it! It's so simple yet AWESOME! Here is a link to where I found the directions for the amazing treat holder: http://dianagibbs.typepad.com/stampin_with_di/2009/02/you-rock-sweet-tart.html
