#MakeACardSendACard Challenge

Hello & Happy Monday!

Hope everyone had a nice weekend!
We were out & about most of the weekend hitting the trails and let me tell ya, my feet are thumping!
It was dreary, rainy & gloomy one minute and then sunshine the next but the rain won out most of the time. We still walked the trails because afterall isn't that what they make umbrella's for?!

Today I am continuing the #MakeACardSendACard Challenge.
My card is made with the Petal Potpourri stamp set that's long been retired but doesn't matter to me....I love the big blooms in the set!





Happy Mother's Day Card:

Stamps: Petal Potpourri, Crazy About You
Ink: Blushing Bride, Soft Suede
Cardstock: Blushing Bride,Whisper White
Accessories: Flower Medallion Punch, Elegant Dots EF, Blushing Bride Ribbon, Glue Dots, Dimensionals, 2 Sided Tape

Aren't those big flowers pretty?

Strawberry Slush Butterfly

Hello & Happy Tuesday!

Hope you've all been enjoying the spring weather we've been having!
Here in PA it got to 83 degrees on Easter Sunday. I was almost ready to throw in the towel and ask for the AC to get put in the window but I managed. Yesterday it cooled down nicely and I decided to go down to my stamp room and do some rearranging and throwing old stuff away. I have a gallon size ziplock bag that is filled with buttons that are in my stash. I don't use them on cards much anymore because of the extra cost in mailing them. I may try to find a new home for them.

Anyways, today I am going to spend the afternoon in my stamp room again. I need to find a better way to store all my 12 x 12 DSP packs. I have tons since I started stamping in 2001. I have 12 x 12 paper holders that I picked up at AC Moore many years ago but they hold all my non SU dsp's and 12 x 12 cardstocks. I really have way toooo much paper! 
How do you store your 12 x 12 designer series papers?

So, today I have a quick card to share that I made last week for my customer.
She wanted something springy and for a young lady who was celebrating a birthday.



Since I was on a roll with using my Bold Butterfly Framelits I had to use them again for this card.
Of course all these colors are now retired In Colors but since I still have tons of it in my stash I will continue to use it.

Happy Birthday Card:

Stamps: Crazy About You
Ink: Strawberry Slush
Cardstock: Strawberry Slush, Mossy Meadow, Whisper White, All Abloom DSP
Accessories: Bold Butterfly Framlits, Butterfly Embossing Folder, Lg Oval & Scallop Circle Punches, Strawberry Slush Thick Twine, White Pearls, Dimensionals, Tombow Multipurpose Liquid Glue

I even used the Butterfly Embossing Folder on the white panel even though it's hard to see on the photo's. I really need to use this one more often. So pretty!

Springtime Clear Boxes

Hello & Happy Sunday!

I made up a few clear boxes for spring! 




I used DSP from the English Garden pack and added a butterfly from the Butterflies Thinlits. My sentiment comes from the Crazy About You set. I popped up the butterfly and added a few pearls on it. My box is filled with Hershey Kisses.


Happy Spring Clear Boxes:

Stamps: Crazy About You (sentiment)
Ink: Hello Honey
Cardstock: Hello Honey, Blushing Bride, Whisper White, English Garden DSP
Accessories: Butterflies Thinlits, Circle Punches, White Pearls, Dimensionals, Tombow Liquid

I love these boxes but sadly this here is last of the clear boxes from my stash.


That's all for today!
Thanks for stopping by & have a great day!

Color Challenge 539

Hello& Happy Wednesday!

Sorry about no updates yesterday. 
I was a bit under the weather. Not sure if I had a bug or maybe it was a side affect of my pain meds but just felt lightheaded & nauseated. Headed to bed early but ended up getting woken up by thunder around 2 am. That was quite a storm!

Today I felt better and headed down to play along with yesterdays Color Challenge 539.
Here are the colors:

Wild Wasabi, Perfect Plum & Soft Sky
w/ a dessert option of having one edge of your card something other than straight


I passed on dessert this week...



I used my Crazy About You Polymer stamp set for this card. I really like the words & images in it and I like being able to see where I am stamping. I stamped my greens once then stamped off again for a lighter image and I like that look. My flower is stamped and punched out with the Flower Medallion Punch. I added a few rhinestones for interest. My sentiment is a bit crocked. I knew I should have used my Stamp A Ma Jig! I finished off my card with some Soft Sky Ribbon.


Color Challenge 539 Card:

Stamp: Crazy About You
Ink: Perfect Plum, Wild Wasabi
Cardstock: Soft Sky, Perfect Plum, Whisper White
Accessories: Flower Medallion Punch, Soft Sky 1/8 Taffeta Ribbon, Rhinestones, Dimensionals, 2 Sided Tape


Hope you like my card!

Well, off to get my lasanga out of the oven for supper! Yum!
Thanks for stopping by & have a great day!
