100% Adored
Just a quick CAS card for Valentine’s Day featuring Impression Obsession stamps. The tree is from the Solid Tree stamp set, but instead of using the leaves from that set, I used the heart from the Love Seals stamp set. The medallion sentiment on the front is from that set too, which was then […]
Kissing Chameleons
OK, so I know I already made a card for my hubby, but this might have to replace it and save that one for our anniversary. I am loving these sweet little chameleons from Elizabeth Dulemba! Look… they are making a heart with their tails!!! Stinkin’ cute! I uploaded the image into the Silhouette software […]
Tons of Love
Check out this sweet Valentine’s Day card! Too cute 😉 I love this image from Dustin Pike at Doodle Dragon Studios. I thought it would make a great card for my son… hope its not too cute for an almost 13 year old! I think certain occasions justify (if not require) cute… don’t you?!? This […]
Forever Love
Hello everyone! (Well, except my husband… Remember? You promised you wouldn’t read today’s post until Friday!) Guess what y’all, I finally found my mojo again… it was hiding in the laundry basket this time. Nothing like needing to do 5 loads of laundry to make you want to craft!!! I had been thinking all week […]
Wish You Were Here
Today’s card is for my BFF, who I’m missing terribly lately. We met in FL when our kids were only a year old & became good friends, then I moved 600 miles away a year later & we became best friends. Come to find out we were in Kindergarten together… same class. Freaky, right? We […]
Cake Inferno (Happy Birthday Bob!)
My brother is 12 years older than me. I’d tell you that he’s older than dirt, but that makes me sound old too! Instead, I will let this cake inferno hint that he’s no spring chicken 😉 I’m not feeling too young myself these days!!! This card is different from anything else you’ve seen me […]
Birthdays and Donuts
Mmm…… donuts. Oh, hi everyone! Don’t mind me, I’ve had donuts on the brain ever since I came up with the idea for this card 😉 My dad has had more birthdays that he would care for, but definitely not as many donuts as he’d like, so I’m thinking this birthday card will bring a […]
With Sympathy
OK, I am still rocking the color combo I used on my last card, and I used the scraps from that card to make this one. Sweet, right? Fortunately, I don’t have an immediate need for a sympathy card… just wanted to make one to have on hand if ever needed. Last time my hubby […]
It’s Your Day
Today’s first card was inspired by the challenges at Just Us Girls (for the color combo) and Mojo Monday (for the sketch). What an easy sketch to work with! I have 2 birthday cards I need to be working on, and I’m not sure this will get used for either one, but I was aiming […]
Birthday Blast
It’s the 1st challenge of 2014 at Fusion Card Challenges. Their concept is totally cool… they provide both a sketch and photo inspiration… you choose to use the sketch, or the photo, or a fusion of both! Fun, right? Check out what I had to work with and what I came up with: OK, […]
Happy New Year… take 2!
Does this look familiar? No, its not either Groundhog Day or that you are seeing the same card as yesterday. OK, so it bears a close resemblance! When I printed off this cute little pre-colored digi and papers by Doodle Pantry, I did it a couple times in different shapes and sizes. The 1st you […]
Happy New Year!
OK, so I’m about a week late with this greeting. That’s OK. My friends and family come to expect this from me 😉 So no one will mind getting a Happy New Year card from me mid-January! See folks… set their expectations low and they are pleasantly surprised when I’m only a week late! Ha! […]
Birthday Affirmations
Today’s card is a birthday card for my spunky sister in law. Her style is quite different from my own (I’m boring) so I struggle making cards for her. I think she’ll enjoy this funky paper by Studio Calico from the Here + There 6×6 pad that I just got. I love that it has […]
Merry Christmas Sharon! (and everyone else too!!!)
Today’s card is the one I sent my BFF. She deserves something much more elaborate with layered die cuts, inking, embossing, coloring with Promarkers, or a special technique like Liquid Applique, Smooch, or at least Stickles. Alas, time and mojo are both in limited supply. What I lacked in technique I hopefully made up for […]
3D Reindeer
I’m pleased to announce that all my presents are wrapped, all the Christmas cards mailed, and all the cookies baked. Whoo-hoo! OK, I had help from my awesome hubby to get the last of the presents wrapped yesterday, but I did everything else myself. With 2 whole days before Christmas with no lingering to-do list, […]
Holiday Teacher Gifts
Just a quick post to show you what I whipped up for my son’s teachers. I’ve gotten to know a few of them this year, and though its middle school now, I couldn’t help but send them a little something… and yes, I had the kiddo’s permission, though he didn’t offer to distribute them for […]
Sketch N Stash Challenge
I’ve been pumping out the Christmas cards this week! Nothing like waiting for the last minute 😉 Today’s card is for the daughter of my best friend… the niece I never had. I was at a loss for a design, so it helped tremendously to use a sketch. I loved the current sketch from Sketch […]
A Dustin Pike Christmas
I made a cute little card for my dad using a handful of Dustin Pike images. If you haven’t checked out his store or his blog before, you should cause he has the sweetest, light hearted images. My dad could really use a happy, light hearted card around the holidays, so I try not to […]
Using Up the Stash challenges
Wow… 2 cards in 1 day. I either found my mojo again or I just work better under pressure! Pretty sure its the pressure… Ha!!! I needed a quick Christmas card for my hairdresser, and this has her name all over it! Following the sketch at Sketch and Stash, it came together fairly quick too. […]
White on White with a Splash of Green
Today’s card was inspired by the current challenge over at Love to Create, white on white with a splash of green. A peek at the inside: I knew I wanted to do a snowflake card when I saw the […]
