The challenge and blog hop are sponsored by Sir Stampalot http://www.sirstampalot.co.uk/rubber-stamps.php
The challenge theme is:
"MOVING"
The project can be a card, box, scrapbook l/o, whatever you choose and the theme is open to interpretation, moving home, kinetic card, vehicle or as simple as a dangling charm as long as it represents movement.

I made this altered wall hanging using a photo of the Navy Pier ferris wheel. (This was a regular photo that I covered with adhesive backed orange vellum.




I also made a card that resembles a swinging gate.

I thought that showing my son "moving" from childhood to young adulthood would be perfect for this challenge.

Valentine card

I made this Valentine card using a digi stamp that I found on Cyndilou's blog http://cyndilou.blogspot.com/ I colored it with turquoise and aqua Glaze pens and added dewdrops. I used pop dots to raise my image. I used pp from MME and Pink Paislee. The cream textured paper is Provocraft. The rub-ons are Art Warehouse . The card did not scan well as it looks MUCH better IRL.

Not your typical Valentine

I FINALLY had some time to create. I've been working some extra hours and trying to organize my scrap area. I found the challenge at http://haunteddesignhouse.blogspot.com/ intriguing. The challenge was to create a project using a "FALLEN ANGEL". I missed the deadline, but am thrilled with how my card turned out.
