Birthday Blessings

Good evening! Today I have been working on a card for a good friend of mine. Her Birthday was Friday. Oops I'm a little late. Nothing new for me. I'm always late at EVERYTHING...lol!! Oh well at least she's still gonna get a card. I guess I will have to buy lots of goodies at her stampin up party next week to make up for it. Todays card was made with DP from basic grey's hopscotch. I used the modern label punch from stampin up for my sentiment. The sentiment was a Just for Fun stamp. The flower stamp was a free digital download from papertrey Ink. This is the first digital stamp i have ever used. It was their 4th anniversary tag collection. I colored it with copic markers and added stickes to the center. I cut  scalloped circle nesties and added bling all the way around it. I used a MS punch for the scalloped border and added some Kaisercraft lace. I added 3 pink pearl bling to finish it off. I did this card for a few challenges :

Happy Birthday

Good Afternoon! Today I have a birthday card for you. I made this card with spring in mind, because I am so ready for it. I used Cosmo Cricket Pixie-Licious DP. The sentiment stamp is from Impression Obsession and the tree stamp is from memory box. I just love this tree stamp. I colored the leaves with copic markers and added liquid pearls to the tree to look like berries. The ribbon is from Martha Stewart and I added two buttons with some twine on each end of the ribbon. I used scor-tape and ruffled the ribbon. I made this card for two challenges:                                                                                         


Hope you liked this card and thanks for visiting my blog today!

Sweetest Wishes


Wow, It has been almost two months since my last blog entry. Way too long. Its amazing how time passes by so quickly and you just can't find time to do the simple things that you enjoy so much in life. I guess you have to make time for these things. That's what I plan to do in 2011. I want to make more time for me and my papercrafting hobby.  Today I have a card that I made for Valentines Day. I made this card for the Card Patterns Sketch 100.  The background paper on this card is from Bo Bunny Crush Collection. The red and pink CS i had in my stash. I'm not sure what brand. I stamped the swirls in the BG with a verve stamp and matted all my layers together. I used a verve die and stamp for the tag. The sentiment (sweetest wishes) on the tag is from impression obsession. The starburst is a Mcgill punch that I stickled and added bling to. I added ribbon to my tag and added a bow with some bling for a little extra sparkle to this card. Thanks for visiting my blog today. Have a great day!!

To cheer you

I made this card for two different challenges, the first one is cardpatterns sketch challenge 93, the second one is the color challenge over at Stamp TV. The colors we were challenged to use were innocent pink, chocolate brown, and ivory. I LOVE these colors together. I also LOVE this sketch. I will be using many times. I used pure luxury cardstock  and the DP is basic grey. My image is from a stamp set called Hope Grows. I colored the image with my copic markers and stamped the sentiment under it. I added stickles to the center of the flowers to make them sparkle. I used a MS punch. I added some bling, ribbon, a flower, and a brad from Bo Bunny. This card makes me smile. I hope you like it too. Thanks for visiting my blog today!

Christmas Tags

Today I want to show you some christmas tags that I made to put on my christmas packages. I haven't wrapped any presents yet but I need to do this and not wait till the last minute. lol!! I made these all with pure luxury card stock.  The To/From stamp is from a 2008 papertrey set called Holiday Tag collection. It was a gift from my sister-n-law Tammy. I stamped it in colorbox chalk ink (maroon). One of the DP is from Kaisercraft Belle collection, the other is a random piece that I pulled from my drawer. I'm not sure what brand it is. The ornament stamp is from Hero arts. The penguin and owl stamp dont have a name on the block, but I just recently purchased them from local stamp shop. Aren't they adorable? I added the bling and the ribbon to give it a little something extra. Hope ya like them. thanks for visiting my blog!!

My Log Cabin Card

     I hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving holiday. I know I did!! I made this card for Gina's spotlight sketch challenge and because I needed to practice on doing some male cards. I don't know about you, but these are the hardest ones for me to do. I had seen this log cabin card long ago and wanted to try it and finally got around to doing it. I used Pure Luxury CS in asparagus and chocolate and the DP is from the DCWV matstack (the christmas combo). The punch is a Martha Stewart that I picked up on clearance at michaels and the embossing folder is called distressed stripes. I sponged the sky and stamped the tree 4 times randomly. I cut the image and placed it to look like you are looking out the window of the cabin. I added stickles to the trees to look like snow. I added the birthday sentiment. The stamps are from Gina K Designs Winter Wonderland Stamp TV kit and  Snow Much Fun stamp set. I will post some christmas tags later this week.  Thanks for visiting my blog!!
