A few more...

Here are three more cards I cased...

I've been so short on time and creativity lately that I've been checking out Splitcoast a lot and seeing all sorts of amazing ideas!

I used a cherry blossom stamp from PaperSource.com for this card. I then cut a flower from the Fabulous Flowers set (seee... I love it!!) and stamped a sentiment from Heard from the Heart.

This card used Fabulous Flowers again... SURPRISE! Haha. I stamped the images on glossy card stock and added some rhinestones. I'm trying not to hoard so many supplies this year! I added some Kiwi Kiss ribbon and used the Happy Birthday from my All Holidays set.

I made this card for our friends, Kevin and Kim. They got married on the 10th and their wedding was black and white. How appropriate. I used another one of my favorite sets... Always. The sentiment is from Heard from the Heart. Love that set, too!

January Stamp Club!

Well... Sadly, the club was cancelled for today. The weather is just NOT good out there!! Besides the freezing cold, now we have lots of snow!!

Here are the items we were going to be making...

I cased both of these from ideas I saw on Splitcoast. I changed them both slightly and think they are perfect for Valentine's Day!!

The next idea is perfect for kid's valentine's day treats! I bought some flat suckers on a stick and made these little cards. I saw the idea last year on Laura's blog... ScrapNExtras on my right hand side bar. Check out her work!

Lastly I made my first ever Post-It Note and Pen holder. Super cute!! I used Fabulous Flowers. I am SO sad that it's retiring. I usually don't get so emotional over my stamps... but I LOVE this set! I use it all the time!! Go HERE to see a video of how it's made.

Hope you enjoyed... Check back later. I have a few other cards to post!

New Cards!!

Here are some new cards I've been working on the past couple weeks...

And... Check back soon to see a few new cards with the Goody Goody Gumdrops set- which is in the NEW catalog (dropping January 19th!).


** The first card used the new Raspbetrry Tart designer series paper. SO yummy!! **

And.... some thank you cards that I'll be using for gifts I got for Gracie. I'm behind in getting a couple sent, but hey- at least they are MADE now!!! ;)

I used pirouette pink and chocolate chip- these are the colors of her room! Love them!

Been a while...

Well... I missed Kristina Werner's challenge last week. Between work, Meagan's invite order, and trying to make cards for the Alzheimer's Fundraiser, I just ran out of time!!

She didn't post one this week, however, because she is off to NYC for a convention. Lucky!!

Here is a color challenge card from last week over at Splitcoast. I just love these colors together. Ruby Red, Soft Sky, & Pumpkin Pie. Of course I love them- hello... Pumpkin Pie!! ;)

I used the blender pens to pick up the colors from the ink pads to use to color the teacup and flowers. I used some rub-ons from the Perfect Day set for the white swirl. The patterned paper is stamped with flowers from the Fabulous Flowers set, which I just LOVE right now!!

The next card was made for my dad's best friend, who is getting married this weekend. Their colors are purple & silver, so I wanted something elegant and I wanted to use the biggest of the Fabulous Flowers set... I embossed one in black, one in irridescent ice, and stamped the last one in Almost Amethyst, then cut them into pieces and attached with a rhintstone brad.

After that, I attached a Mr. & Mrs. from the All Holidays' set and put a oval piece of Hodgepodge hardware around it. I also added a piece of scalloped paper and then tied a sheer ribbon around it.

It may be *the* most elegant card I have EVER made!

I'll try to post a little more... I'm busy with the invites now, however! 100 to make only ONE month to do it... AHHHHHHHHHH!!

Hope everyone is well!
