Think Pink

Here is my card for the

Think Pink

challenge at

Dude Time Challenge Blog.

The image of the girl is by BoniBleaux Designs

and the sentiment is by

Create with TLC.

First I made this background

(and you are free to save it yo your computer and use it).

I did not have a ribbon stamp, so I made one.

To make the stamp I just a piece of rubber,

some EZ foam and a  clear block or a woodblock.

Also the cuttlebug and the ribbon cut die.

After you cut the ribbon out with the cuttlebug,

you stick it on the ez foam and now you can use it on a clear

acrylic block for stamping. I glued it to a woodblock

for I was afraid to loose my stamp.

I stamped the ribbon with versamark and embossed it with

pink embossing powder. Then I took my distress ink

to spongue the background andadd some stamps

in the same color range.

For my card I use Larry Lane, who just can't stop

bowling (and neither can I with my fun new

bowling game on my mobile phone).

You see on this card again the collaged

circle technique from the latest

Technique Junkies newsletter.

The scoreboard is a picture I found on the internet

and the sentiment is by Create with TLC.

Have a creative day!

Techno Stamper sketch 183

fun this time, that I made several cards!

Stamping tip!

You might have noticed that I am not using all of the

Club Scrap stamp (Just want to say Hi),

so did I cut off part of the stamp?

Oh NO!!! I have a little trick to use

half of my stamp and this trick is called:

MASKING TAPE

(click on the image to see everything larger)

1. get your stamp, ink and masking tape

2. cover the part that you do not want to stamp

3. ink up your stamp

4. take of the masking tape, before you actually stamp

5. stamp!

You can practice on a piece of scrap first.

Have a creative day!

"Anything sketch will do but add a flower"

THE RULES

You will have one week to flip the Sketch,

twist the Sketch, work the Sketch and submit the Sketch.

You are not required to use Bonibleaux Designs Digis

although it would make us really really happy and giggle a lot if you did!

 MUST be a masculine themed card, you can use humor,

 innuendo, be a little naughty, sarcastic, but it has got to be for a DUDE!

Be sure to use the InLinkz at DTD  to submit your creation.

The winner, the Top Blog and Top Three winners will be announced

Ann is giving to the winner three digital image sets AND their choice of a custom watermark OR custom signature! WOW! Is that generous or what?

My card is done with Fred Farmer and a TLC sentiment.

Coloring with copic markers and pencils.

Have a creative day!
