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:
Here's what the inside says:

Thanks for stopping by!

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 :)

Happy Spring!

Well it's spring here in the good ole Midwest, supposed to be 50 something today... We'll see.

I don't know if you are a regular visitor here yet, hek I don't know if I have any "regulars" but if I do I apologize for not updating this more regularly, I just can't seem to get my pictures uploaded before I have time to get a post up, I'm still working on it. I visit so many blogs on a daily basis for inspiration those that don't update regularly can become discouraging to visit, again I'm sorry :( If you are a "regular" can you please comment on this post so I know as I'm coming up on my one year anniversary & I'd like to give out some blog candy but if I don't have enough visitors then I'll probably just wait until I hit a good number on my counter.)

Anyway let me share what I've been up to lately:
Isn't she super cute, this is one of TAC's Vintage SOTM for April. I couldn't wait to make something with the set. Next up:
A few more new TAC Vintage SOTM, I think this is May's upcoming set. I've used these for TAGS to send to some of the folks in my group, too cute aren't they? Here they are individually so you can see more detail:

Happy Saturday!

Isn't it just funny how time flies so fast when you have a lot on your plate. Well I've been extra busy organizing my craft room & doing family stuff, besides working and just creating that I haven't made time (once again...) to update my blog. Well my intentions are always good as far as updating goes. Well I'm here now so I thought I'd share some recent creations. Here are some Easter cards I created unfortunately I failed to take picture of the St. Patrick's Day cards I made for someone a few weeks back so I'll move on to Easter :) Enjoy!

This little darling is a Whipper Snapper stamp I purchased last year & I just love to color her. It was done for the SC214 challenge I used Certainly Celery SU CS & DCMV Spring stack from last year as well, along with Nestabilities, isn't she just darling? EDIT: It's really SC218... oops...

Next up:

This one I used a clear set I purchased at Joann's a few weeks back from The Paper Company Studio, really cute stamps, I used Barely Banana, Cuttlebug folder, ScorePal, flowers from Michael's wedding bucket of confetti flowers I purchased last year, they take color so well, pearl stickers & of course Nestabilities, I find myself using them on almost every project because I love them so much. Oh & can't forget my Copic markers, again I love to color.

Moving on:

For this one I used TAC's set called No Bunny Like You, yet another cute set. I also used Barely Banana & Positively Pink, DCMV Spring Stack again, Copics, Nestabilities (again), glitter brads, Martha Stewart leaf punch & flowers.

Thanks for stopping by & I hope you come back again soon! Have a great Saturday!
