I Wheely Like You

I am delighted and honored to be the March guest designer for Storage Units, Ink & More! Wait until you see the fun images that are in the two new sets being released this month. For those of you who follow my blog, you know how my family has been asking me to make more kid cards because we are having a population explosion in our family! When I saw this set called Let's Play, I was so excited, there are so many fun images of children riding, jumping, and playing! For my first card I could not resist this tyke on a bike. He is colored in copics and has glossy accents on his bike. The paper is from Deja Views called My precious Boy, I also used PTI Poppy and White. I used Nesties for the circles and SU Photo Corner Punch, the buttons are from my stash! To see more fun images from this set visit the SUink blog !

Easter Greetings!

Look at how cute this little sweetie is all dressed up in her Easter bonnet and matching coat! This is a new set called You're Some Bunny Special and is available at Storage Units, Ink & More. There are so many delightful Easter images in this set. Her coat and hat is colored with copics. The paper is from K & Company Ancestry paper pack and PTI White. The flourishes and circles are all Quik Kutz dies. To see more fun images from this set visit the SUink blog!

Best Wishes

I made this wedding card with the Stampendous Set Thanks Mom available at i {heart} papers. This is such a great set for Mothers Day. I stamped the images with Versamark on PTI vellum cardstock and embossed with Ranger Gold EP. The images were colored from the backside with copics and then colored with Shimmerz on the front. I used Liquid Pearls around the sentiment. The card was finished off with this beautiful pink May Arts ribbon. Kate has so many new items in the store, lots of new stamps sets and some of the prettiest paper you have ever seen!

Sham Wow Thank You

I made this card for the Limited Supply Challenge on SCS. The challenge was to use only one stamp set and create a background from that set and also use the sentiment from the set. The only embellishments allowed were ribbon and brads. I chose the Flourishes Thank You set and stamped the background image and sentiment in Su Old Olive. I did a little copic coloring on the flower and added Old Olive Ribbon. Thanks for Looking!




It does not take very much to amuse my family! My niece Michelle just got the Sham Wow and this has been the topic of conversation for a week now. Yes she has succumbed to the hype and was enabled by the man in the white coat on TV. I am pretty sure that she is going to be wearing this headset while cleaning up random spills. I just can't wait to find out the 1001 uses for the amazing Sham Wow! Maybe I can cut it up and use it on a card!

Frugal Hat

Today on SCS the Ways To Use It Challenge was to use something frugal or recycled on your card. Well, I am not really a frugal kind of gal, Just ask my hubby! I always buy this Paper Creations Magazine, they have awesome templates in every issue. I seem to save all these fabulous templates and never do anything with them, probably because I am not the best cutter. So I thought I would step out of my comfort zone and use one of the hat template I have been hoarding!

So many people have been asking for the template, they did not have one on line so when tech savvy daughter comes home from work, I will see if she can somehow get the template posted!

Floral Paisley

I made this card for the sketch challenge on a new site called Card Patterns. This week Kate from i {heart} papers is the challenge sponsor. She will be giving away some fabulous items to the winner of this weeks sketch!

Today I did not fell much like stamping and coloring, so I played with my craft knife and cut up just about every inch of this pretty paper!

You Brighten My Day

I made this card for the Featured Stamper Challenge on SCS! The honor went to Sgtstamper Jami! Her gallery is filled with the most amazing cards! Since we had about six inches of snow today, I decided to make a bright springy card! I just love the new images by Our Craft Lounge, this image is from the set Ducky Days and is available at i {heart} papers! I thought this duck needed some bright paper behind him so this fun stripe from s.e.i. also at i{heart}papers fit just perfect! You really need to pop in the store, Kate has so many new items for spring!

Porcelian Birdcage

I made this card for the Inspiration Challenge on SCS. The site being featured is called Flutter. They have some really interesting Items! I was really intrigued by the Weeks Supply Of Moustaches. I still may go back and order that! My inspiration was this $495 Beehive Birdcage! I could say a lot of things about it, but I won't. But I will tell you about this stunning paper from Basic Grey called Pocelian which is available at i (heart) papers. Every piece is just beautiful and perfect for spring. Stop by the store, Kate has so many new items for spring!

Mr & Mrs

I made two very similar wedding cards today. I am going to need a lot of wedding cards this year. Sara is at an age where a lot of her friends are getting married! You know what that means...next year I will be making a lot of baby cards! For this card I used the Mr & Mrs Stamp from Stampabilities and embossed it with Ranger Gold EP. The Frame is a Spellbinders Die. The paper is from The Paper Company called Natural Gold Swirl, and Bazzill Vanilla. I added PTI Vintage Cream Ribbon and Prima Flowers.







This card started out as my practice piece. Yes, I usually practice some elemnets before I make the real thing! Then I looked at today's Ways To use It Challenge, which was to use stripes on your card, and I had this DCWV cardstock sitting in front of me. I just added the May Arts Ribbon and some pearls.

Thanks for looking!

Daisy Thank You

I made this card for the Color Challenge on SCS. I usually do not do the color challenge. To me that is the hardest of all challenges! I usually take off Monday and Tuesday from stamping, and devote all my attention to Brooke, but she has a nasty cold and stayed home today, so I thought I would give this challenge a try!
