Another Honor...Guest Designer at Jazzy Paper Designs

I have been 'itching' to put these little

Studio G stamps to work and I have to

say this was a fun way to do it.

I am very happy to be the 

Guest Designer over at

Jazzy Paper Designs.

Tenia has a FaBuLoUs challenge there

and if you haven't guessed already, the inspiration

comes from a 'jazz album' cover.

Tenia herself is an accomplished and well-known

jazz pianist and I think the theme of her challenges

is perfect!

I used VersaMark to make the background of

this card and then added some 'track' stitches

to mimic the album cover a little.

The stamps are from two different

Studio G sets and were stamped with

VersaMagic.  I added a twill ribbon from

American Crafts and beautiful black

rhinestones for my little version of

the black keys on the piano.

I added rhinestone 'seeds' for a little

more dimension.

Please stop by Jazzy Paper Designs,

and tell Tenia I sent you.

Then play along with this week's challenge.

It's really quite fun when your mind

'starts to play'...you tend to find

'just the right notes'!

 

 

Love this Challenge...Love Count Basie...PERFECT!

I am ALWAYS looking for an excuse to use this fab

set from Memory Box.  When I saw the latest

challenge over at Tenia's blog, I knew this would be

a perfect fit!

This as a great color splash-style

challenge using 2 colors with the

black & white.  Based on the album cover

(yes, ALBUM cover...YAY)

above, it was an easy selection for

what to do next...Clean & Simple.

I love these stamps!

Using just 2 VersaMagic inks in

'Pixie Dust' & 'Thatched Straw'

and Memento ink in 'London Fog'

it was 1...2...3...

Thank you Tenia for fabulous inspiration
over at Jazzy Paper Designs.

I am also including these in:

CAS-tastic CAS challenge

Stampin' Royalty CAS challenge
SCS CAS sketch challenge

These are all fabulous challenge sites so

I hope you play along with them soon!
