Today we have a really special treat for you all… The fantastic and very talented Eve has organized another challenge for us! And it’s sponsored by Audra at Dragonflycurls. Audra has her own Esty Store and makes these amazing handmade Twilight themed stamps.Eve arranged with Audra to let us all play with these great stamps.
Eve writes: ” What team do you play for? Team Edward or Team Jacob? Are you still loyal to your original team? Or have you switched sides? Or do you play for both teams now? Let’s show some love for the boys ladies! Fangs or fur, vamp bite or dog breath? Has the trailer for New Moon maybe changed your opinion of who you used to like? Come on now…Be honest!”
Lol, I’ve always been Team Switzerland. And why wouldn’t you be really – why choose when you can have both? I really love Edward’s character but I also like the reality of Jacob… well loose reality any how. So Team Switzerland it is.
I received this lion/lamb stamp from Audra and I love it.
(Please excuse this horrible photo… rained all day yesterday and I couldn’t get outside to take a nice picture so the focus is a little soft and the colors aren’t quite right. It’s fixed now.
)
For my card I used the lion and lamb stamp and a hand written tag that says “Team Switzerland”. I layered and layered and layered all of these up on some lovely gray paper and I went a little stain crazy since the amazingly talented Donna sent me a very cool gift yesterday and I had to practice with it (and OMG is it HEAVEN Donna, thank you!!!).
I’ll be back a little later this morning with an updated photo…. UPDATED!!!
I also wanted to share the card I made for Ben for TTIC39. If you remember I got Evey’s finished but not Ben’s so this is what I made for Ben…
Again… I shot this indoors so it’s not the best photo. For this I used some fun new stamps from Recollections and distressed the paper very subtley with the Antique Linen Tim Holtz Distress Ink. The little “zap zap zap” paper is stamped with Versamark (my new favoritest thing in the whole wide world after Donna’s sponge block). To color the little robot I used my Prismas.

Amazing Jen, honestly. I absolutely adore your card for Ben!! How cute is THAT? You did an amazing job with the layering, the patterns, the versamark. The whole thing came together beautifully. The lion and lamb card is beautiful too! I’m interested in the sponge block Donna sent…what’s it called? You are really rocking your cards.
