Stuck On U Sketches -Die Cut Something To Wear Challenge

Howdy folks! Is it Spring yet???? I am sure ready, how about you???
I wanted to create something warm for this challenge. I love scrapping my nieces and nephews.
Over at Stuck On U Sketches the challenge is to create a project with "SOMETHING TO WEAR". Since Kinslee is such a Lil Princess I knew she needed her crown!  I used my Silhouette Cameo to make the cuts and the special cuts were made out of paper from PAPER TEMPTRESS. I also used a butterfly Overlay and the pink polka dot bow from Paper Temptress.

Below is the full project and then following are some close ups.

A little heat embossing.using my 3RD STAMP TES-086 BORDERS 1..

Using a butterfly overlay.

Using some Prima goodies from my stash.

Makes sure to head on over to Stuck On U Sketches to see what wonderful inspiration the DIE CUT TEAM came up with. For some wonderful specialty papers go to Paper Temptress and see what specials they have going on right now! 

I hope you will enter this week's challenge.... I know you can find "Something To Wear". :)

Come play with us at Stuck On You Sketches this month because starting this month we will have some incredible monthly sponsor sharing some delicious blog candy with you! All you need to do is join any challenge (sketch, die cut or project life) during the month to have your name enter a chance to win the blog candy. Easy as that.

ROCK STEADY... RR entry for SOD

I had forgotten that I had signed up for the RR over at Scraps of Darkness back in October for the November round. Luckily everyone needed an extension so I was able to contribute my entry. Hooray!! I used my JULY kit of the month Gypsy Summer. Papers used were Graphic 45- Bohemian Bazaar and My Mind's Eye - Collectable Collection.

Here are a few close ups:

In this photo I used my heat embossing powder from Close To My Heart : Sunny Yellow and my 3rd Eye Stamp - Rose.

In the above photo ... I used my EXCLUSIVE StencilGirl  Stencil... and my awesome LAVA RED  InkaGold Metallic Rub! It worked beautifully with this stencil.

 

Using another EXCLUSIVE StencilGirl Stencil from the month of October;this time using Lime Green InkaGold Metallic Rub.  

I used my Silhouette Cameo to cut my Graphic 45 paper to make this butterfly and the round circle image behind the photo and topped off the butterfly with Stickles. I also used Heidi Swapp Color Shine : Black Velvet on this cardboard as well as several Gelatos.

I just got these letters from my friend Margaret!! Thank you! I've loved my Tim Holtz Industrial Stickers.
