Creative Scrappers Sketch #198


Hi Everyone:
I love to play along with Creative Scrappers Sketches when I have a chance and I have been wanting to use these adorable papers from My Little Shoebox Destination line.  I used some of the cute parts of the paper, hit them with some glossy accents and then cut them out.  They look so cute popped up.  I also really love My Little Bit of Whimsy button and car pin. 

Thanks for looking and have a great day.
Hugs,

Inky Impressions Tropical Breezes with Lili


Happy Tuesday everyone:
I made this card for my DT responsibilities with Inky Impressions and you can buy the stamp that I used here as well as look at all the other cute eye candy that Nicole has.  This stamp is called Lili's Secret.  I made this card also for the anything goes challenge over at Simon Says Stamp challenge blog.

Guess what ladies?  We are so lucky to be sponsored this whole month by The Robin's Nest.  You will be playing along for some great prizes by them.  I used their Palm Tree Rubon to create this card and truly wish that I was there with Lili.  I think she is trying to decide what to do first on her tropical vacation.  Here is the link to all the wonderful goodies they have at The Robin's Nest.  Hope you have a chance to play along.
Hugs,

LCOM Weekly Card Challenge 3/5/12


Here is my take on Rusha's Sketch this week.  I had a lot of fun using Simple Stories Year.O.Graphy papers and was able to use some Washi tape that I bought as well as a Maya Road ruler that I bought a few months ago.  Be sure to check out and play along with the challenge at LCOM.  

Here is a close up of that adorable ruler and of course I had to use some of My Little Bit of Whimsy buttons as well.

Thanks for looking and have a great day.  I love this saying and hope it touches you too.

I love this line by My Little Shoebox, it is just so cute.  I also really like this saying because some days you just need those rose colored glasses.

Casual Friday Sketch CFC42



I was visiting different sketch blogs as I find them so much fun and came upon this one.  It is Cas-ual Friday and the goal is to create clean and simple projects.  I had such fun with this card.  I have had this stamp set from my Favorite Things for a while and it was fun to break it out.
I have had these baby diaper pins for a while also and cut the pin off and glued down the little bird.

Thanks for looking and have a great week.

Play Date Cafe Weekly Challenge 2/3/12




Happy Saturday Everyone:
Here is my entry for this week's Play Date Cafe challenge.  The colors for this week are mojito, peony and sand.  Love these colors.  The box itself is sand colored which you can see when you look inside at the sides of the box.  Plus one of the flowers is that color also.  A friend of mine has been having a hard week so I thought a box of swirled cheesecakes would brighten her day.  I used these new EAD Design stickers and they are so easy to use, the colors are gorgeous and they are just so stinkin' cute.  I will be using more in the future.  I wanted everyone to know that I got the tutorial for this adorable box from Becky Roberts and her blog is inkingidaho.blogspot.com.  You have to check it out because her work is amazing.  Thanks for looking.
Hugs,

Page Maps Webster's Pages Sketch Contest


I love Becky Fleck's Page Maps sketches.  They are always so fun and inspiring to me.  My daughter starting running in November 2010 for her first 5K.  She has since completed another 5K, a 10K and a 5 miler which this race was.  She didn't stay after the race for the medal ceremony because she figured that she hadn't won anything.  A week later she received a package with her first place medal in it. 

She has been searching all her 17 years for something to do with her time that she could feel passionate about.  Well, she has found it.  She has a bunch more races scheduled including a half marathon in May.  You go girl, I couldn't be more proud of her for reaching for her dreams. 

You can find the challenge here. 
Hugs,
