Hi There Girlie

Hello - 

Well this is the start of a full week of school.  Teachers will start giving more homework and my teen has adjusted to getting up early again.  I still can't believe she is a senior.  (I can't believe I am that old! LOL)  

Today's card is one I made using the paisley cartridge.  I still love that zebra stripe ribbon from Offray.

Supplies:  Cardstock (The Paper Co.), Cricut & Paisley Cartridge (Provo Craft), Stamp (My Pink Stamper), Ink (CTMH), Ribbon (Offray), Stickles (Ranger).

Rock Star Card

Hi - 

I hope everyone is enjoying some crafty time inside because it is way to hot to be outside!  Today I am sharing a card I made with the Paisley cartridge.  This is a 4.25 square card.  Rock Star is cut from the Life's a Party cartridge at 2.14 with my Gypsy.

Supplies: Cardstock (CTMH), Pattern Paper (DCWV), Stickles (Ranger), Cricut, Gypsy, Paisley & Life's a Party cartridges (Provo Craft).

Have a Crafty Day!!

Hi Crafters....

I hope you are having fun.  I sure am.  I am linking all of Robyn's challenges and here are my results for #4-6.

Challenge #4 - Make something with a Mother's Day theme.  (This one is a hard one for me.  I lost my mom last year.  I love and miss her dearly.)  I chose to do a girly thinking of you card.

Happy National Scrapbooking Day!

Hello -

I hope everyone is having a great Saturday.  We had some thunder storms this morning but now the sun is shinning.  Today I am participating in Robyn's National Scrapbooking Day challenges.  She and her design team have put together a lot of great projects so far.  It is hard to keep up but I am doing my best to stay up.  I was about an hour late to the start but it is not a requirement to keep up to the minute.  I just thought it would be fun and more of a challenge to see if I could.  This post will have her first 3 challenges.

Challenge #1 - Anything Cupcake

 Supplies: Stamp (My Pink Stamper), Ink & Cardstock (CTMH), Border Punch (Martha Stewart Crafts), Stickles (Ranger), Pattern Paper & Dimensionals (Stampin Up!), Cricut & Sweet Treats cartridge (Provo Craft).

Challenge #2 - Use Kraft Cardstock

Supplies: Cardstock (Stampin Up!, Bazzil & CTMH), Pattern Paper & Dimensionals (Stampin Up!), Ink (CTMH), Stamp (My Pink Stamper), Cricut & April Showers cartridge (Provo Craft), Gel Pen (Unibal Signo).

I hope everyone else decides to join in the fun also.  Comments and followers are welcome!  Thanks for looking.

Square Get Well Card

Hello - 

Today I wanted to share with you a square get well card I made with the Paisley cartridge.  I made it 4.25 inches so it could still fit into a standard A2 size envelope.  Having the card a little smaller than the envelope does not bother me a bit plus it costs a little more to mail a square card.  After I assembled the card it looked a little plain so I added some white gel pen stitching for a little interest.  The sentiment is from The Stamps of Life 'Trees2Build' set.

Supplies: Cardstock & Ink (CTMH), Stamp (The Stamps of Life), Pattern Paper (Stampin Up!), Stickles (Ranger), Gel Pen (Uniball Signo), Cricut, Paisley Cartridge (Provo Craft).

Comments and followers are always welcome.  Thanks for looking!

 

MPS Challenge Response

On March 1st Robyn posted a challenge on her My Pink Stamper Blog and I thought I would play along.  Her challenge was to create any project using a feathered friend.  I just got the Paisley cartridge so I had to use one of the owls.  Although the branch is from Create a Critter.

Supplies: Cardstock (American Crafts, Stampin Up!, Close to my Heart & DCWV), White Gel Pen (Uniball Signo), Boarder Punch (Martha Stewart Crafts), Ribbon & Ink (CTMH), Stamp (My Pink Stamper-Punnylicious), Cricut, Gypsy, Paisley & Create a Critter Cartridges (Provo Craft).

Comments and constructive feedback are always appreciated.  Have a crafty day!
