Hi Everyone. Happy Thursday night. Very quick post for you tonight... it's 8.45 and I still have a whole bunch of stuff I need to do! What I want to do.... get back into my stampin space! :-) Tonight's card is another one that I made for one of my blogging friends. I enjoyed making this card. It uses the Strength and Hope set as well as So Happy for You. It gave me the opportunity to pull out my Smooch Spritz - something I don't often use. I wanted to create a batik feel on the card stock and... Read more →
Hi Everyone. Happy Wednesday night Tonight's card is another one that I made for one of my blogging friends.

I used the same colors, the same stamps, but created this... Read more →
Hi Everyone. Happy Monday. Hope you all had a great weekend. Mine? Too short :-) This card is one of only 3 I have managed to make in two weeks. Yep.. three cards in two weeks! I was inspired by the casestudychallenge this week to create this two layer card. I decided it was about time I brought out a piece of DSP from a stack that I haven't even opened. Yep... never been opened! How sad is that. It shows you that either a) I have too much stuff.... or b) I don't have enough time to use it.... Read more →
Hi Everyone. Happy Saturday night. I hope you are all having a great weekend. Well, y'all know what Saturday means.... yep! It's another Paper Players challenge. This week the very talented Nance created a sketch for us - and it's a wonderful sketch. It was a great excuse for me to put together colors I don't normally use together, and to use my brand new set - Strength and Hope. Here's my take on the challenge. Card recipe - all ingredient Stampin' Up! unless otherwise noted: Card stock: Riding Hood Red, More Mustard, Very Vanilla Inks: Riding Hood Red Stamps:... Read more →
