Happy Sunday. It's the fabulous Claire's turn to host our Paper Players challenge this week and it's Tic Tac Toe week! As I'm busy making cards for kids in hospital, this t-t-t board gave me a great excuse to use a set I bought specifically for nurses in the NICU to send to parents, grandparents and siblings on babies in their care. They send foot print cards. So, the inside is always kept clear and clean of any stamping or accoutrements, so the little foot print can be placed inside. I had such fun creating cards using the Doodlebugs set... Read more →
Happy Sunday. It's the fabulous LeAnne's turn to host our Paper Players challenge this week and it's sketch week! It was the perfect sketch for a new set that I got from My Favorite Things called For the Record. Here's LeAnne's sketch It's a really versatile sketch as you can see from the design team cards!

Happy Saturday. It's the fabulous Toni's turn to host our AddictedtoCAS Challenge this week and this is her code word. This code word made me think of only one set - High Tide from Stampin' Up! This card took almost no time to come together. I stamped the images onto the card front and then used my stitched oval to ccut out the center. I popped it on a couple of extra layers of card stock, added the sentiment, and it was ready to go! Here's my card: I hope you will join us and play along with our challenge.... Read more →

We hope that you will play along as we can't wait to see what YOU create with our inspo list. For my card, I was able to use a stamp set that I got... Read more →
Happy Sunday. It's the fabulous Ann's turn to host our Paper Players 600th challenge! More about that in a minute, including a trip down memory lane! I thought it appropriate that today's challenge is a CAS week challenge and Ann came up with a theme that is right up my alley. I've made so many kids cards recently that I was thrilled when the challenge came up. It was an excuse to make another card. Actually, the card I originally made for this challenge wasn't CAS and I only noticed this morning that it was a CAS challenge - so... Read more →
