Speedy Fox and Friends #128 - Recipe

Hello Friends,

Welcome to another fun filled challenge with Speedy Fox and Friends. I have missed you all very much. I am sorry that I have not been participating in the challenges lately. I have been really sick and even had to have surgery. I am on the mend and am now able to stamp. WHOOO HOOO!!! My stamps have been crying for ink so they are happy today.

This week we are following a  1 -2- 3 Recipe. Here it is: Use 1 piece of ribbon, Use 2 different embossing folders and Use 3 punches or die cuts.  This week you are playing for this great stamp set. And what a great time to win this stunner. 

"Autumn Glory"

For my card this week I am using one of our September stamp releases "Holly Jolly Greetings". This was a fun challenge and made it much easier to come up with a card. 

We hope everyone enjoys this weeks challenge! We look forward to seeing your wonderful creations and commenting on your beautiful cards. You have until 3PM on Friday Oct. 12, 2012 to post your card. Please remember to link your card back to us or mention Speedy Fox and Friends or Marks Finest Papers a Heinrich Company in your blog post. And if you use MFP a Heinrich Company stamps your name will be entered into the drawing twice. Have fun and good luck.

Thanks for stopping and commenting. I hope you enjoyed my card. Be sure to check out all the other fun challenges that Marks Finest Papers, a Heinrich Co.  has in store for you. 

Thanks

Happy Friday!!!

I want to thank everyone for their prayers and cards while I was ill. Surgery went well this past Monday with the exception of a reaction to the anesthesia but I am on the mend and back to stamping.

Welcome to a brand new challenge with Tutorial Time on SpeedyTV.  This weeks challenge is to make a card using distressing. The tutorial can be found here.  Not a member of SpeedyTV that is ok join today it is FREE.

For my card today I am using on of September's stamp releases "Autumn Splendor". I have had these stamp sets for awhile but being so sick I could not even sit to stamp. They have been calling me to ink them up so little by little I will get them some play time.

"Christmas Greetings"

Tutorial Time on SpeedyTV Challenge #14 - chalk and blender pens

Hello Everyone,

I know I haven't been around in a while and I am sorry for that, I have been dealing with some health issues. I hope to have a routine in place soon so that my stamping no longer suffers.

I realize that it is Sunday and not Friday which is our typical date for this challenge. I am sorry for the delay, computer issues and downloading of pictures has been a problem for us recently. With that said and due to the holiday this week we are going to run this challenge for two weeks so that everyone will have the opportunity to play along.

This weeks tutorial I created blender pens and Chalk. There are so many ways to use chalk but we thought this would be a fun one. You can find her tutorial here.

The stamp set you will be playing for this challenge is going to be:

"Hello Butterflies"
