Random Amusing Challenge # 19

Image
Here's my card for Glenda's weekly challeng e. This week was to use scraps. This was a fairly easy since I have tons of scraps! The only thing is new is the stamps, newly inked. Does that count? I hope so. Glenda, thanks for this challenge because I got a chance to clean and purge my scrap box! It needs more organizing but I got it down to three scrap boxes: large scraps, medium, and small-but-usable scraps. There were a lot of white card stock pieces that I could now use instead of using a new full sheet! A Muse: stamps: three cups, what's brewing, other: twinkle stars, paper: vintage red, card base: wausau classic cardstock.

For me, I pray that I can chill and Trust Him-whatever that looks like. Although because I don't know what it looks like, I'm scared (heart skips a beat) of what it does look like! Does that m...

What's shakin'? dets: all a|s unless stated: CS: sugar and watermelon; Stamps: tini time; Inks: bubblegum, lichen, papaya, and a muse dye black; Other: glue dots-memory book and a|s diamond glitter up close glitz up glue dots This week at CAS-ual Friday is: click on link to CFC #14 It was a challenging card because I really don't like to use glitter or glue dots.  Glitter can get very messy and for some reason glue dots does not stick well with me.  If you take a look at the up close shot, the glue dot on the left side is not perfectly round.  I don't know why that happens.  Anyone have any ideas?   It was a fun challenge nontheless.  I got a chance to play with this month's spotlight "Tini Time".  I am in love with this set.  I love how the bubbles and starlight things came out.  I masked the top papaya starlight thing and was very impressed how it turned out.  I actually just covered it with a piece of paper and I was afr...
