QKD Blog Hop

It is the end of the month here at QKD which means that next week there will be new stamps!!! woohoo!!! But, back to this week. This week our blog hop at QKD was an inspiration challenge -- we were to be inspired by cupcakes! YUMMY!!!

Okay, back to the 'business' of the hop. You should have started from the QKD blog, hopped along at the various stops, and made it here from the Whimsical Ink Sorority blog (don't forget to look at the Verona's challenge from Saturday! So cool!!!

Now, you are here! Okay, here is my card for this week



I used the June Royal Kit for my card along with the cool shape templates made by QKD! I love the Royal Kits -- great way to make cards without "thinking" because it has all you need -- cardstock, patterned paper, embellishments and QKD stamps!!! Both the tea cup, cupcake, and saying stamp are in this kit along with even more stamps!! What a great deal!!!

Okay, thanks for stopping by but now it is time to hop along to Jules' blog to see what she has for us. Can't wait to see!!!

And don't forget next week -- new stamps!!! I have to tease and say that I am in love with the ones I have and can't wait to share them with you!!!

QKD Blog Hop 7/20

July keeps flying by! Here it is Tuesday again and time for the QKD blog hop! You should have started at the QKD blog - then hopped along making it to the WIS blog, and now you are here. And this week is a color challenge - red, white, and blue!

I used the fabulous June WIS kit for my card!



I used a navy blue base and then pulled out some KI diecut number paper, which seemed perfect for a happy birthday card! I did some selective coloring, added in a little yellow for pop, and then finished it off with a sentiment from the kit as well.

Thanks for stopping by, but now it is time to head to Jules' blog and see what fabulous creation she has for us.

QKD Tuesday Hop - Sketch Challenge

Here it is again, the Tuesday blog hop featuring Queen Kat Designs!!! You should have started at the QKD blog - then hopped along making it to the WIS blog, and now you are here. And here is the sketch for this week.



I loved this sketch and thought it was perfect for a patriotic card, but when I sat down to make my card, I needed a Father's Day cad, so here is what I came up with.



Yes, that is a Happy Stixx that I used for my sentiment! I can't get enough of these. I used some old Basic Grey, a little ric rac, and my Happy Stixx and was ready to go! Thanks for stopping by, but now it is time to head to Jules' blog to see what she has for us.

And don't forget to stop by the store and go shopping -- there are three new stamp lines: Eclectic Reasons, Studio 77, and Ink Stained Roni. I don't know where to start and stop with all these wonderful designs!!

Tuesday Blog Hop - QKD

Wow! It is July and that means new releases at QKD, but this month is a little different we had some fun products to play with! I will show you those in a just a minute, but now the 'business' of the hop -- since this is a new lineup, let's make sure we have it right -- you should have started at the beginning at the QKD blog and hopped along and then made it to the WIS blog and now you are here at my blog!

Okay, this week was a sketch challenge, and here is the sketch --


And here is the card that I did using the sketch as inspiration



The cupcake is from the June WIS kit, and do you see that Happy Birthday? Well, it is a Happy Stixx! These are just fabulous! The sayings are etched on them; you can distress them, paint them, ink them, or just use them plain like I did! Oh my!!! I adore these and am so looking forward to adding more to my stash!!!

Another fun product that we got to work with were templates -- I love these templates -- set of two shapes with three sizes per shape. Great for those of us who don't have the room (or money) for a die cut machine! Here's a card that I did using a set of templates -- of course, it doesn't match the sketch but it does show off the fabulous June WIS kit! There is only one left, don't miss out on this fabulous kit!!!




Thanks for stopping by and now it is time to head to Jules' blog to see what she came up with for this week's challenge.
