Michelle Perkett Studio

One of my top 5 favorite companies is having a design team call and I have an entry!
Michelle Perkett Studios

I am keeping my style clean and simple as I think that the image speaks for itself.

It is titled Dragon Fly.

I present to you Dragon Fly interpreted by Molly

(yes I am being dramatic!)

All Cardstock used was Stampin' Up!

 (Night of Navy and a cream colored one I am not sure of the name - sorry!)

The Ribbon is matching Stampin' Up!.

Making Memories is the brad I used for the head.

Swirly Design was traced from the original image (paper pieced wings) and a white gel pen.

I hope you all love and I hope Michelle does too!

Stamp-N-Doodle Blog Hop

PLEASE SCROLL DOWN TO YESTERDAYS POST AS WELL - ANOTHER CHALLENGE WITH PRIZES IS WAITING FOR YOU!!!

Hello and Happy Friday! We are a bit late getting our STAMP-N-DOODLE challenge posted this week due to weather problems in 1/3 of the US, but here we are and we are having a blog hop to promote our NEW RELEASE images for February and to welcome the NEWEST DT members -

Ruby, Priyanka, and ME!

Our blog hop will run from today - Weds., February 9 at 11:59pm EST. In order to WIN the grand prize - all 3 STAMP-N-DOODLE images used by our various DT members - you must complete the hop and leave comments on all blogs along the way including the STAMP-N-DOODLE blog. You don't have to make a comment at the shop (your last stop). You also have the option of joining our NEW CHALLENGE, which is VALENTINES and/or LOVE. The winner of the challenge will receive one image of choice from STAMP-N-DOODLE. In addition, we would love you to join us as a follower, but this is not required to win the hop or the challenge.

You should have come from RUBY if you didn't, please go back to the

STAMP-N-DOODLE BLOG and start from the beginning!

For my card, I am using the image "name of image"... (describe your card)

The best part about the rest of this card is I used all scraps so the best I can guess is that the cardstock is Stampin' Up!, PTI, and Georgia Pacific, the image is colored with BIC Markers, and the brads are Making Memories.  Those are my normal.  As for te DSP I know it is My Minds Eye! :)

I hope you enjoyed your visit. You are now off to LISA - Hope you will play in the challenge as well. You do not need to use a STAMP-N-DOODLE image, but if you do, you will get 2x the entries for purposes of random.org winnner's drawing.

January 31st Already?

Can you believe January is done today? This is craziness! Of course, I have been running around like a chicken with my head cut-off (which I don't necessarily hate!), but in a good way!  I have had some card business come my way and I couldn't be happier!  I have also made a couple design teams which has been such a dream for me! Please keep an eye out all this week for the new things that are going on!  Please, if you haven't already, go HERE to visit the Stamping Dragons Blog Hop for their Grand Re-Opening!  It was such fun!

For today I am going to show you the get well card pack I put together for a friend...'tis the cold and flu season my friends! Please remember to sneeze into your elbow and always carry a tissue!

Boatloads of Love

Have you ever seen a stamp set in your closet that you were like "I HAVE to use this stamp set" - no rhyme or reason you just feel the need to use that stamp set?  This was one of those situations! Actually...I have a friend who wants this stamp set and since I don't really use it much I said she could use it for as long as she likes!  I just felt the need to ink it up one more time before it left my house!

Scrap Madness

I am working with a new set of scraps....the scrap page from Sunday actually was when it started and it has just kept going!  All this week as a matter of fact!  I am still kind of in shock at the amount of scraps that I have and at no point did I ever stop and say "Hey I really don't need to buy anything for a long time - now do I?" Geesh shows how much this world has changed or how good the marketing is! :)

Yes - the BRAK's are done for this month - but I still have friends and family to send to - so I am not onto February BRAK cards yet.

Base Cardstock: Georgia Pacific 110 Lb.

Cardstock: Papertrey Ink Pink (Official Color Name ?)

Stamp: Stampin' Up!

Did you notice I did this cared vertical?  I could have also just used this paper for the inspiration from the challenge I have going on - but I thought I needed to work a little harder in my own challenge! :)

Love This Layout!

So I needed to make some birthday cards as I am on the BRAK team on SCS (Birthday RandomAct of Kindness group) and I wanted a new layout.  I was looking through one of my stamping magazines and found this one!  It might have been Paper Crafts but don't quote me on that.

I love it so much I made a few stamp changes!

Stamps are SU!

Embellishments are Making Memories

Ink is by {Ippity}

Paper is Close To My Heart

Notebooks Galore!

I had made some notebooks for a craft show I was in...here is a few of the ones I made...I am partial to the first one and the second to last one!!  I used everything that I had in my own stash...made it fun to go through that and use it...that is really what I have been trying to do instead of spend money, hoard it, then forget about it!

For a SUPER GREAT giveaway!!!!! ***************

A Little Much Maybe?

My daughter Abby insisted on me using the ribbon...I think it might be a little much, but I am not sure. I think though that we are the worst judges of our work.

Making Memories eyelets, Doodlebug Textured paper, otherwise same as yesterday!!

Riley!

Riley has to be my second love after Changito...TOo bad I only have like 2 of Riley...the only reason I have more images is becuase people have image swaps. Thank God for them!

I used some rust SU! cardstock with a super cute edge punch, SU! retired patterened paper, Creative Memories circle punch, Riley by Hannah Stamps colored in BIC Markers, Making Memories eyelets, and of course AC Textured cardstock in black!!

The Black Phase Has Begun

S0 some people do theme weeks or have a certain style that they follow for a week to give people an idea of how things can be done.

Not the case here...I just ran across an extremely HUGE amount of black textured paper in my supply closet. So this isn't a week of black or anything like that...it is called Molly needs to use what she has and not buy anything for a long while!

Hope you like my black phase! :)

So the black cardstock you are going to become accustomed to is AC Textured Cardstock and so is the white, the super cute pink gingham ribbon is from Michael's dollar spot, the jumbo silver eyelet on top card is clearance from Hobby Lobby, the black eyelets on the bottom card is Making Memories, some scrap pink patterned paper, and last but not least, both sentiments are Stampendous.

How Precious

I was making a birthday card (yes that is all it seems I do anymore!) for one of our dear friends Miss Darlene from church. She is the most wonderful woman I know. Both her and her husband Charlie are so kind and loving...and they always seem to say the word "precious" when we talk!

When I saw this image - which was sent to me so don't ask what she is - I thought how precious! I knew it was perfect!

I used some silver Making Memories eyelets, BIC markers to color, PaperTrey Ink white cardstock, and some scrap patterened paper I had laying around.

I started last week off slow...wanted to ease back in...this week you will have more!
