baby boy

I love making baby cards and was so happy to see that this weeks challenge over at the paper players was 'buttons and bows for baby'.

This card came together really quick thanks to this weeks sketch over at Sweet Sunday.

Thanks for stopping by my blog today it really means a lot to me.

trick or treat

A quick card to share with you that I created for this weeks Freshly Made Sketches.

I love making Halloween cards. I think it is because of the fun bright colors that everyone associates with this holiday.

I used papers by doodlebug from the haunted manor collection. The main stamped image is a stamp I have had forever called trick or feet by Stampendous. The head image is a new one by PaperTrey Ink from tremendous treats: halloween that was released this past month.

Thanks for stopping by my blog. Have a great day!

I have a quick card to share with you that I made earlier today for the newest sketch over at Prickley Pear Rubber Stamps.

Here is this weeks sketch that I used for my inspiration.

Once again I have used my PPRS "hibiscus" flower on this card along with a music stamp by Stampendous, and papers by Teresa Collins. I am wishing I would have waited one day to make my card as the new stamp and die I won from them arrived today right after I finished my card.

Thanks for stopping by to look. Your comments are always welcome and appreciated.

just because

Last night while watching some TV I decided to make a couple of cards using some of the new things I have picked up in the past week.

I went to Archivers for the make-n-takes yesterday and really liked the card that we created using half of one of their gatefold cards and a 5.5" circle. So decided to try making a Christmas one. This is a 3.5 x 5" (4 bar) card.

For this card I used my SU bird punch, Memory Box "mistletoe" papers, the card stock is a yummy color from French Papers "basis pop-tone" collection called sno-cone. I love the really soft color, the sentiment is a pebblesinc. rub-on.

My next card uses a new Halloween stamp set I bought at Archivers yesterday called "bootiful boots" by stampendous. I colored them in with copics and then added glossy accents on top. The embossing folder is from QuicKutz and the wrinkle ribbon is some that I made last week.

I love how the boots have turned out. I added some silver to the buckles on the boots too.

Oh today is my 35th wedding anniversary and I was going to post  a picture of the two of us from that day and decided I wouldn't put you through it.

Enjoy!

Project Tuesday ~ Tunnel Card

Well it is that time again ~ time for another Project Tuesday and this weeks project was to make a tunnel card. If you aren't sure how to make one stop on over to Project Tuesday for the instructions.

I decided to make a Halloween Card this week. My intentions were to use my new Memory Box "blackbird" papers, but by the time I finished with the inside of the card and then went out to decorate the front the papers no longer matched. (hate when that happens)

Hopey you Enjoy and if you get a chance stop over and play along with us this week.

Sunday Part Two

As promised here is the card I made using my new stamp (cling music score by Stampendous) that I bought at Anchor Paper Express yesterday. I love vintage sheet music and now with this large stamp I can create my own.

I added a border punch from EK Sucess, along with some leaves made from the SU leaf die, and a handmade rose misted with glimmer mist. The paper was distressed using the Tim Holtz edge distresser and Ranger Distress inks in Pure Honey and Vintage Photo.

Okay I am getting ready to pack for a trip to Wahpeton, ND to visit family while my niece is on Spring Break. I have scheduled a daily post while I am gone so hopefully you won't even have a chance to miss me. I will be back here by Friday.

Enjoy!
