RILEY0113, Make It Sparkle!

Hello, I'm sorry for posting late, I was sick for the last challenge and for some reason thought that was last week and realized today that it was challenge time again! So here goes...

This weeks Riley and Company challenge is hosted by Michele, and she's challenging us to make it sparkle! You can add glitter, bling, or anything shiny!

For my card today, I used Heart Riley. I coloured him with copics, added stickles to the heart and also added some tiny heart gems.

The card base is real red, with a layer of vanilla and then dp from Basic Grey's Sugar rush pad.

I bought a new Martha Stewart punch today called flourish lace, that's what I used on the center piece.  Then I threaded some ribbon through it.

Please play along and upload your creation to the Riley and Company Blog, for your chance to win some free rubber! If you upload to any forums, please use the keyword RILEY0113.

Have a Great Day!

RILEY0311, Chocolate Valentine!

If you're looking for the MFP post, you can find it here!

Hello, it's time for a Riley and Company Challenge! This weeks challenge is hosted by Therese and she's challenging us to make a chocolate themed Valentine! I made a heart shaped Valentine treat holder! You can find the tutorial for this on Valitia's Blog, it's so easy, and will hold some yummy treats!

I stamped Heart Riley onto white & coloured him with copics. I also stamped the heart and his hands again, cut it out & popped it up.

For the heart box, I cut 2 large scallop hearts from riding hood red and and 2 large hearts from very vanilla. Then I stamped them with the french script background stamp in Tim Holtz antique linen and sponged the edges with the same. As a final touch, I spritzed the vanilla pieces with gold smooch spritz, I'm not sure if you can see it in the photo!
Here's a side view, I thought I had some gold tissue paper, but couldn't find it so I used red and spritzed it with the gold too!

I also want to share the card I made for today's Teapot Tuesday Challenge! Yep you heard that right, I have a Teapot card made the actually day of the challenge!!!!

This was made for MMTPT132, This Can't Be Right! There's Nuttin' In Sight!

I used Plane Riley and stamped him on white and coloured him with copics. I also stamped him on scraps of dp for the airplane!

Then I stamped plane Riley onto the background piece and sponged in the clouds using a mask and soft sky ink. I glued down the cut out plane and banner, popping up the end of the banner and the 2 small clouds.

The card base is black, with a layer of riding hood red and then the main panel. At the bottom I used the MS cityscape punch with basic grey and sponged the edges, then I popped that up.

This weeks Destination Station is Sean, he's 23 and battling cancer, please follow the link for all the info. I wanted to personalize it a bit, so the banner sentiment was hand written!

Have a Great Day!

RILEY0211, Hearts It Is!

Hello, it's time for another challenge from Riley and Company! This weeks I'm challenging you to add a heart to your card or project. It could be a heart stamp, paper, embossing folder, embellishment, anything with a heart!

Today I'm using the new Heart Riley, just released last Thursday at Riley and Company.

I coloured Riley with copics, and cut him out with a petite oval scallop. I stamped the image again, only colouring the heart and his hooves, then I cut it out & popped it up!

The card base is soft suede, with a layer of pretty in pink and a layer of dp from K&Co.`s lovely!

The sentiment is also new this month, and the button is from my sewing days!
