Back to Basics Challenge

Back To Basics - There will be no layering, no matting, no embellishments, no heat embossing or dry embossing allowed on this card. You will create a Card only using White Card Front Base, Ink Pads and Rubber Stamps or digital stamps. It's a Basic Card. In Any Theme you would like to do. Please be creative.  

Before I reveal the wonderful cards the DT made, I want to tell you what our sponsor Creative Bug Designs is offering as a prize that some lucky person will win in our random drawing of all those that enter our challenge.

Creative Bug Designs is offering five digital images to our winner. Now, a  little info on Naomi:

I am a proud mom of 2 amazing boys. I am in love with motherhood and love life to the fullest (although you know we all have our days, wink wink) I started out as an avid scrapper (not the fightin’ kind) which led to making cards, then I found my true passion “Creating Digital Images”. I have been sketching people throughout my life yet could never draw an animal; for example, a bear would end up looking like a mouse.  In 2009 I took a Graphic/Web Development course that enabled me to hone in on my creativity so today a bear looks somewhat like a bear, lol. I enjoy making websites with Dreamweaver CS4 and learning more each day about HTML and CSS. We all have our favorites to work with when we get the “Creative Bug”, mine is without a doubt working with stamps. My favorite tool would have to be the scoreboard which I use to make envelopes, boxes and creative designs on the edges of my cards. I am a working mom, a social butterfly (I am told) and love to sing, play guitar and compose music but most of all I am a loyal friend, a little eccentric at times, sincere, honest and love love love to have fun!! There is always laughter in my home, I believe life is what you make it for it is in the way we perceive every little thing.


Here is what our DTs came up with using some darling digis from Creative Bug.

Virginia 

Virginia used colored pencils to build up and blend the colors..  Also used sponging with ink pads and left a white area for the fence.  Then finished up with accents using a black ink pen.  The stamped saying is by "Judith, E24", a stamp I've had for a long time.  Name of image used from Creative Bug Designs is called "Pumpkin Kins."
