Creative Confetti - Triple Play

It's Barb Campbell and I am your guest host for another  Creative Confetti Challenge.  I got to thinking about the fall activities and here in Wisconsin baseball was a big thing.  Our Brewers were trying hard to get to the playoffs.  They did make the wild card team, but better luck next year.  This is what gave me the idea for this challenge.  I am calling it Triple Play.

HOW TO PLAY: For this challenge, you need to use the same image three times on your project. If you are making fall cards you could leaves or acorns. If you are working on your Christmas cards there are a lot of things that you could use.  Snowflakes, candles, ornaments, I could go on, but I think you get the idea.  
Here is my inspiration for you.  




Here is the card that I did with Under Glass Christmas Keepsakes stamp Since I used Non-traditional colors on the design papers, I decided to go with that color scheme and decorated the trees in like colors. Hard to see, but I used Nuvo drops on the white garlands and Glossy Accents on all of the blue ornaments.  Don't forget to make your inside interesting too for your recipients, not necessary for this challenge. 
OK, the ball is in your court, Can't wait to see what you will do with this one.

Creative Confetti - Sketch it Out





That is all there is to it for this week at Creative Confetti!  Do the sketch anyway that you want.  Turn it on the side, add something different than a circle.  It all counts. Remember that there are NO rules.  You can use any stamps that you have.  You may have a chance to win a gift card to the Power Poppy site.  You will not be disappointed in what they have to offer.
Here is the card I did.

Using the Power Poppy Stamp set Under Glass and some design paper from recollections and a piece of striped vellum. That is all. 


Another Christmas card done!  Thanks for stopping by. I appreciate your comments. Let's see what you can do for this challenge.  More information here

Creative Confetti - Free for All


Have you missed me?  We have now migrated to a warmer climate for this winter.
 Yes, I am a Snowbird! 
This was the last time driving here so I had to bring everything I could possibly imagine that I may need to do my card making.  The car was packed so full that I was afraid that it would "POP" and everything would be out on the drive.  Gratefully, that did not happen. Once I got settled, I was in business again.  Julie wants us to use a Free stamp from Power Poppy.  Well, this will tell you how long I have been around.  This was a free stamp with background and sentiment. I don't believe it is available anymore.  Here is the card that I will be sent to a friend back home. I hear that got quite a bit of snow.

Cute snowman colored up with Copic markers and die-cut and placed on a base of Tourquise Sea card stock.  I added some snowflakes with white embossing powder from Power Poppy Grandma's Snowflakes stamp set. The sentiment is from the same free digital and I just cut it out and pop it up.

For a little texture, I added white correction pen to the snow on the branches. 
Nothing is out of the question when creating.

I will be adding this to the Creative Confetti Challenge for this week.

Thanks for stopping by and I adore your comments.
