Happy Sunday!

Well I wasn't able to post yesterday (too busy) so I thought I'd do so now while the family is still asleep :) Hope everyone is having a good weekend! It looks like it maybe really nice here today in the Midwest, let's keep our fingers crossed as it's been a really weird summer so far... Here's a few things I've been up to lately:

One of the ladies that works for me (at the "day job") requested a wedding shower card with the colors of pink & turquoise blue. This is what I came up with I used of course Pixie Pink & Tempting Turquoise along with my swirls Cuttlebug folder & one of the Nestabilities tags along with the scalloped circles, the stamp set is a retired set from SU. Oh & this was found to be a card I could add some raindrops stickers I found the last time I visited Archiver's :)

Next Up:
My first "Riley" creation, he's really grown on me... One of the other ladies at work requested a b-day card for a grandson turning 8 the one I did for her had a popped out 8 just under the flying happy birthday sign. For this card I used Taken with Teal & matched it up with paper from the My Minds Eye stack I picked up at Hobby Lobby awhile ago.

Well thanks for stopping by & again have a nice day!

Happy Saturday!

Wow, what a quick week that was. I hope everyone had a nice holiday weekend & have great plans this weekend. I really don't, except stamp maybe :) Here's some graduation cards I made:

One is navy blue & the other black, I used AC Foil paper, some clear graduation stamps & silver bling around the image & on the extra layer off to the left.

Here are two in black & red with gold AC foil paper:

I'm Back! (Again)...

Wow, that's the longest I've been away since starting this blog that I wanted so bad, besides life being too busy right now & the fact that I just surf more blogs & shop than I do working on my own, well you may know... Anyway I fixed my issues with my camera finally last night & have some new pictures of stuff to share today:

First up:

These cute stamps from Pink Cat Studio, I think the baby is oh so adorable, don't you?

Next:

Another one of the stamps from that set, cute...

Last for today:
Keeping with the baby theme, these cutie pies are from the Angel Company, a vintage set sold in March or April. Too cute... I hope to get back here again before the end of the weekend as I have more photos to share. If not, I hope everyone has a great Memorial Day!

Spring Saturday!

It could finally be Spring here in the Midwest! Supposed to be 71 today! I'm torn between hanging outdoors for the day or stamping :) I think I'll try to do both... Here's a few things I've worked on in the past but never took pictures of to share:

This one was done using a set from Gina K & bright pink & orange along with some DCMV paper & of course Nestabilities. Next:
This one was made using Cuttlebug dies & embossing folders, very simple.

Hope everyone has a nice weekend & thanks for stopping by!

One Year Blogoversary -- Lots to Share!

Wow, I cannot believe I started this blog a year ago... Time flies, just hope I can add more to it more regularly, will see, I'll really try. Hope all is well! Here are several cards & such I made last weekend that I wanted to share, enjoy!

Supplies used: DCMV Garden Party paper, SU Sage Shadow (matched perfectly) Hobby Lobby ribbon, Cuttlebug, EK Success border punch & of course rhinestones.
Supplies used: Baby Girl DCMV stack (I think...) SU Blush Blossom & Apricot Appeal, Clear stamps from sorry don't remember now, Martha Stewart ribbon, Nestablitilies & of course rhinestones.

Supplies used: Paper purchased at Hobby Lobby, Hero Arts Mother's Day set, this one has sentiments for the inside of the card (hard to find those sometimes...) swirly from Sizzix & once again gold rhinestones.

Supplies used: Background paper from Hobby Lobby, Cupcake stamp from Magnolia, Nestabilities & red rhinestones.

This is a treat bag inspired by Leigh O'brien (super talented stamper).
Supplies used: Long rectangle Nestabilities, DCMV background paper, SU CS, $1 stamps & yet again rhinestones, these were colored using Copic markers & this trick was courtesy of the ever so super talented Lauren Meader, terrific idea as it will save so much money to just color clear rhinestones & not purchase all the colors of the rainbow... That's it for today, Happy Easter to everyone & stop back again soon!

What I've Been Up To :)

Well this weekend's weather is the total opposite of last weekend, we are currently expecting SNOW... I thought we were so done with snow, they say 1-3 inches tonight & 1-2 tomorrow yuk. Well here's what I've been up to:

Tilda Easter Card, I used DCMV background paper from last year's Spring Glitter Stack, Copic Markers, a prima folded in half, some Making Memories Easter brads, a button & some ribbon.

Next:


This one I used Our Craft Lounge stamps, some new background paper I purchased recently at Hobby Lobby, a prima flower & sticker gems.

Next up:

Another Tilda stamp I so love this one with the puppy, again background paper from Hobby Lobby, Spellbinders label 2, primas & gem stickers, this one I put the Happy Mother's Day stamp on the inside as there's no more room on the outside...

Here are all 3 together:


Well that's it for now, thanks for stopping by & if you have any questions, please let me know via a comment :)
