My Besties with blue designer paper 

I had to be careful not to use too many frills as to cover the paper so 

I used lace on the side and an open corner die  with

pearls

                                              I chose the MFP Stamp Set autumn Friendships
                                             I gold embossed the gorgeous leaf and was done

Center of Top Layer Ch 259

                                               I know it is why it is called a challenge
                                                         This one really challenged me
                         challenge this week  SFF is to use only the center of the top layer
                         Sounded easy but I found it hard to stop once I did the center
                                                 I used the MFP Set Big Trees
                    AND it is the first time I have ever heat embossed on my handmade paper


                                       

Oriental Sketch 75

                                            I used the MFP Stamp Set Umbrellas and Fans
                                                  The band is a Reflections  paper cut
                                      The lantern is a punch  on   corrugated card stock

                                 Come see what the other designers did Oriental sketch

FOSTV 163 Creatures in the Night

It took some thinking to come up with Creatures in the Night with the MFP stamps I have 

I used stamps from "What a Scream" MFP set

First I used the Haunted House Folder  on black card stock

                               Using sponges I rubbed gray silver and white until I got a look I felt spooky
                                   I  cut out the cat and saying and adhered then the google eyes
                                                         If it scares the cat I am good

FOSTV 162 Tri Fold

You will have fun making this TriFold for the challenge this week on friend of speedy TV 

I used the MFP set Black eyed Susan I stamped colored and cut out several of the flowers and arranged them on the panels
I use washi  tape along the edge on both sides 

The most work in this card is the cutting out and I am sure it could be done without that step 

Show us how you would do a tri fold 

SF&F 257 Gold Embossed Background

                           I used a different method than the wonderful TT Pat has for you
                                               I used stamps from MFP Pandas
                 I first used the smooth side of the stamp to put the embossing ink circles
             on the card stock I lightly gold embossed a few and gelato colored the others
                           I then covered all of them with yellow gelato  in that area
            Then I did several layers of Ultra thick EP and covered that with a top layer of gold
             using the panda stamp covered in embossing ink I pressed it into the warm EP
                       The bamboo circle is gold embossed directly on the card stock

                                I am sure you would enjoy the TT Pat has
                                      or you have a method of your own
                        and you will come join us at Speedy fox and Friends
