Ways to Use it Blog Hop Fun!

The Ways to Use It Challenge Team is having a bit of fun today! We decided that we should kick off September with a Blog Hop… and not just any hop… but a bit of a peek at our challenges for the rest of the month! Speaking of…. Michelle’s challenge starts today, so go play along!

Our theme for the month is SCHOOL! So keeping that in mind… if you can correctly guess what my school related challenge will be by checking out this card… you’ll be entered in a random draw. I’ll feature an example made by the random winner in my challenge on the 15th over at Splitcoast! How cool is that.



Thanks so much for taking a look.. now take a guess at what you think my challenge is, then hop on over to Hannah’s Blog and see if you can figure out her challenge too! Here’s the whole blog roll in case you haven’t made it through them all!

WT336 Ways to Use It Challenge on SCS

It’s time for me to host another Ways to Use it Challenge on splitcoast. I am so excited for this one as I went for VersaMark! There are truly so many ways you can use it that it seemed a perfect choice.

I used the set Beautiful Lace from The Angel Company. Such a lovely doily, I stamped it in VersaMark on white CS and chalked it with blue. I also stamped it on the blue CS and left it to do its watermark magic!



I’m entering this in a few other challenges as well… so much fun to find inspiration out there and play along with others… give it a try!

Scrapbook Sisters Card Challenge no 48 is blue, they have some great examples and neat challenges so check them out!

Truly Scrumptious Challenge 63 is to Lace it Up so I used this lacey doily! They have some fabulous lacey DT cards!

Thanks so much for stopping by and taking a look, I hope you can play along with me on splitcoast! Please let me know what you think.

Ways to Use It Challenge~ Paper Piercing

I’m the hostess this week for the Ways to Use It challenge over at Splitcoast! This week I want to see the many ways that you can incorporate Piercing into your paper crafting! There are Paper Piercing tools and templates of all kinds, or you can jump back to the basics with a needle. Even use the sewing machine without the thread to create some neat holes!



All these cute images are from the Latte Love stamp set from Fiskars. I got this set in the mail a few days ago from my blogland friend Chris as a blog candy she gave away! There was a super cute card and some yummy ribbon as well! Muwah from me Chris!!!!



I colored with Copics and used some plastic canvas as a guide for piercing my lines at the top and bottom. I’m so proud of myself for carrying over to the inside, I rarely do that and I think it is a nice polish to it.
I hope you have time to play along in my challenge this week at Splitcoast!

Thanks so much for stopping by, please let me know what you think!

Ways to Use It Challenge on SCS

I am so excited to tell you that I am one of the new hostesses for the Ways to Use It Challenge on Splitcoast! It is a weekly challenge and I will occasionally be  the hostess for it! The current challenge is Dying for Die Cuts! Who doesn’t love playing with Die Cuts????



This cute fairy is from Pollycraft. I had so much fun coloring her. The folds in her clothes made for fun shading! My flowers are eh…. not as awesome as I pictured in my mind.. but they are ok… I added stickles so that should make anything better right?



I am also playing along in my friend’s challenge blog, Use it Tuesday, to use flowers and an image not inked up before!

Thanks so much for stopping by and taking a look, please let me know what you think!
