Thanks So Much!

Good morning friends! Good news, my baby is doing better! It is so hard to have a sick little one, but when she just wants to sit and be held...not much better than that anywhere! Thank you for all of your well wishes. Here's to the end of that!

I wanted to take part of a few fun challenges today. I'm using Jen's SFYTT, from this past Saturday. I've loved Jen's sketches for a long time, but been slow on sharing my takes on them!:) I loved this sketch...and the inspriation from the Embellish Magazine's current challenge...delicous spring colors!
So, for my card, I used the new Butterfly Dreams stamp set from PTI. I LOVE, love, love it. I used Lemon Tart, Melon Berry, Spring Moss and Summer Sunrise for my color palette. Ashley has a fantastic eye for inspiration!!

I used my new butterfly die that coordinates with the butterfly dreams stamp set. I cut several butterflies out, some white and some of the colors listed above. I stamped a butterfly and then layered it onto a colored butterfly and then added some rhinestones. My card is a lemon tart base. The Melon Berry layer has been embossed with my swiss dots embossing folder.

I added a Summer Sunrise border and a splash of ribbon..then added my white circle to the card-and added my butterflies. My sentiment was stamped with Summer Sunrise ink onto Lemon Tart paper. The sentiment is from the Mega Mixed Messages stamp set.

I hope that you have a geat day! Thanks so much for stopping by, make it a great one!

Hello!

Good morning friends! Today is the first day of the CHA super show...and let's just say there is a buzz in the air in and around the Anaheim Convention Center! Lots of very happy and soon to be a crazy amount of very happy people around! What a fantastic time!! We're off to a fun breakfast and then onto the show...YEA! So much excitement in the air!

I wanted to pop in quick and say hello, and also share this card I made to participate in the Embellish Magazine Color Challenge, with Stripes! Ashley designed some FAB digital paper that fit the both of these challenges, delicious rich colors and dramatic stripes! I LOVE the paper she designed...glad to have that in my stash now!
This was a super quick and easy card, I downloaded the paper and printed it on whisper white cardstock. Then with just a couple punches, some ribbon and my new favorite sentiment stamp(from PTI), I've got a wonderful valentine card! I'm thinking this might be the card that makes it's way to my husband's Valentine breakfast this year!

Thanks so much for stopping by! I appreiciate it! I'll be back...with a few highlights from today...which I'm sure will enclude meeting a load of wonderful people, laughing, seeing super product...buying super products:), and an all around wonderful day! If you're around, I'll be at the Lizzie Anne Booth for a few make and takes today...and we're right across from the Splitcoast booth...so be sure to come on over! The LAD girls have a few great specials and a great bunch of product to have fun with!!

Have a great one and see you soon!!

Love You

Good Morning friends! I hope you're having a great week! We're all getting back into the swing fo things, but boy, getting up is hard to do!:) I'm starting my 6 am workouts again and yep...it's going to kill me for a few days!

I wanted to share a fun card I made for the Embellish Magazine Color Challenge. You can see the challenge and great inspiration from Ashley here. The challenge was to use pink, red and black for the colors and then use hearts. I happen to love these colors and really wanted to play along! I used the CPS sketch 148 for the layout of my card too.
I chose real red, raspberry fizz and this fun black patterned paper from AC for my colors. I used my top note die and my big shot for the main panel. The sketch I used from CPS has a smaller center piece, but that is the fun of using a sketch, you can make it "yours" by making your card just the way you want to!

I used my heart punch from SU to make several real red hearts and added them to my red top note. I tied some rapsberry fizz satin ribbon around, make a fun little flat bow, and added a button. My sentiment is from PTI's Papertrey stamp set. The little heart next to the sentiment is raised with a dimensional.

It felt good to play along with a few challenges...I so enjoy that! I've got another card to share tomorrow that is challenge related as well, so be sure to stop by! Thanks so much for stopping by! Oh, are any of you my bloggin' buddies going to be at CHA? I'm going to both the super show and wholesale show and would LOVE to meet you face to face if you will be there! I'm so excited I can't wait!

Have a great day!!

Wishing You the Best

Good morning! Hope you're having a great Thursday! My week has quieted down a bit and I'm so thankful for that! I had a little time to play and wanted to share! I wanted to play along with the latest Embellish Snowflake Color Challenge! I love these colors together...YUM! I made this card for a friend who's husband is staring treament for cancer...the long trips to the hospital have just started and I just wanted to send a little love in the mailbox!

I used So Saffron, Aqua Mist, Chocolate Chip and Kraft paper for my color selection. I used one of my fun new Cuttlebug embossing folders...yummy isn't it!? A few punches and some ribbon...quick and fun! The sentiment is from PTI.
Hope you have a great one!! Don't foget to check back for my birthday blog candy...I'm working on a package of some of my favorite things...it will be fun! See you soon!
