Christmas

Ok so I had planned to make Christmas cards throughout the year but that didn't exactly happen but at least I've started making some in August so it won't be a mad rush come November. This is a case of a layout I saw Markie's Mom use on SCS. I might redo it because I still feel like it needs something. Anyone have any input?

There's Magic In the Air Challenge Card

I fell in love this digital image as soon as I saw it. I knew it would be perfect for masculine cards. Nina (owner and designer) of There's Magic in the Air is providing this image for free for a very limited time so don't delay in getting your own. Her challenge this week was to use this image and create a gate card. I've never made one before and it was a lot of fun. Thanks Nina. I hope you like what I created!

Paper: SU Buckaroo Blue, GP 110, Kraft
Ink: printer ink
Misc: Prismacolor pencils, silver pearls, nesties, cuttlebug embossing folder (distressed stripes)

Gina K Color Challenge

Here is my latest Gina K color challenge card. This was Lee's brown, red, and cream sketch. I'm a little behind on uploading.

Paper: SU Red Riding Hood, PTI Chocolate Remix
Stamps: GKD A Year of Flowers
Ink: Versafine, copic, shimmerz
misc: Nesties, pearls

Penny Black Challenge Week 61

I can't tell you how excited I was when I first found this blog. Most of my stamping buddies who know me know how much I love Penny Black. So when I saw this weeks sketch I just had to play along. It's my first attempt at any of the Penny Black challenges but I know it won't be my last! I hope you enjoy my card.

Two More Cards

I made two more cards this weekend! I used the sketch from Limelight Paper Crafts and added some shimmer to each of the cards. Enjoy!

Still searching for my chocolate pearls. I swear they grew legs and walked away and I can't get anymore locally so I must find them! Ooh and if your wondering about my blog header saying ..... it's because I haven't decided on a name yet.

Sorry I'm so Behind

I have been creating!! And it feels wonderful. When I saw the color challenge at stamp tv this week, I just knew the image I wanted to use for it but I didn't have a sketch in mind. So my friend Lori sent me the link to Tracy's blog and I knew that was perfect. So off I went to create and I'm pretty happy with how it turned out. I hope that you like it. I have another card that is almost ready to go but I'm looking for my chocolate pearls that have seen to run off as the finishing touch.
