Round 2 of the Progressive Challenge

The Facebook group for Sandra Caldwell Stamp Fans is having a progressive challenge. Round 2 has begun and the challenge is to use one of her Etsy stamps with a heart in it and you need to include some sparkle on your card.  As you can see, I am using a brand new stamp called Love Letter and a button with Kisses and glitter on it.

Check out our fun Facebook Group and join in our challenge.  Also, Sandra is sponsoring a bookmark challenge right here on my blog (posted wed)!  It's using a stamp that she made just for me, you can buy this stamp Bearly a Headache..  It's on sale from Feb 3 to the 5th for half price!  Get it and make a fun bookmark so you can play and win prizes.

Which stamp do you like in Sandra's Babycakes DND (Doodles n Designs) store?  do you use Digi Stamps?

My current favorite has to be hmmm, Tattoo Hippo, or the Chicken Noodle soup just makes me laugh!



Did you sign up Feb 1?  Be sure and go back and leave a comment there (CLICK HERE).   Be sure to leave a comment each day to be in for every drawing as I haven't chosen prizes on any day yet.

    Hi Holley,
    again, you made a very lovely card! I just love your coloring :)
    I really like the Chocolate Cupcake 4 U digi. It's just so cute :)
    I don't mind working with digis, I actually really enjoy coloring them, but if I have to choose I would usualy pick normal stamps. :)

    Love the card - again making brown look good, lol. I have never used a digi stamp, preferring to work with the real thing and get inky. However, I have taken a peek and love the Betty Mermaid image. Yep, still lovin' the mermaids.

    I like the Big Love image Chocolate Cupcake 4U and I definitely use digis. Love to resize when needed. Cute card you made. I love pink and brown combos.

    what a wonderful card with that great image and folded doily. :)

    I love all of Sandra's images, but Bearly Starbucks is next on my 'to buy' list. probably because this looks waaaaaaaaay too much like me! :)

    have a great weekend!

    You made a very nice card. I like the stamp you used, because it is versatile and can be used on various occassions - Valentine's, weddings, birthdays ...
    I am not very keen on digis and I don't use them often. I might use them occasionally, but very rarely. I prefer rubber and clear stamps.
    To be completely honest, Sandra's images aren't really my cup of tea. There are some nice ones, but none that I would be using on my creations.

    Holley,
    Your card using the Love Letter digi stamp is very cute. I like the Chicken Soup one and also Harvest Basket and Birthday Cake digi stamps. I do use digi stamps about half the time. The benefit is that you can size them just the way you want them.

    Hi Holley - I have to admit that I have never used a digi stamp. I haven't tried because I am not a comfortable colorer, even though I have tons of the alcohol copic markers. 134 Sew Silly and 259 chocolate cupcake are very cute.

    Your little envelope is adorable! Nice addition of the doily - I keep forgetting to use my doilies! I mostly make cute animal cards so my favourite is the Kissing Kats! Yes, I use Digis but I'm trying to use more stamps as I can't use my watercolour markers to colour digis (printer ink runs). Thanks for another day of giveaways! Enjoy your weekend!

    A wonderful card Holley. The doily and image are gorgeous and I love the pink and brown colourway.
    I love using digi stamps as they can be resized and are easy to store. Physical stamps are fabulous for sentiments. Sandra's style is so distinctive and full of humour. I bought Bearly a headache, just need to get it coloured up and my bookmark made xx

    This is a beauty, Holley! Still trying to decide which stamp to use for this part of the challenge. I'm with you on the Chicken Noodle Soup for a giggle and I adore the Wonderland party. Heck, they're all so cute, it's hard to choose a fave. xxD

    Loe your card, Holley. I go over and salivate over Sandra's images often. I loved playing with the Three Stooges image, but she has so many really cute animal images now. I am loving the cats and the octopus and the squirrel...there are too many to choose from to pick just one!!
