Adorable


Here's a card that I finished last night after I got home from work. I borrowed this stamp from my friend Karen. I had gone to her house on Saturday to play with our stamping supplies and I fell in love with this little stamp. I think this stamp set came from Whipper Snapper. Isn't she the cutest?

The base card is 4 1/4 x4 1/4 it is kraft from SU. Other colors that where used are chocolate chip, white and the Parisian Breeze Specialty DSP. I used the new edge punch from SU and retired ribbon is also from SU. I also used the adorable stamp that is from the Warm Words set.

Hope you enjoyed visiting my blog. Please come back soon.

Mojo Monday #83


It's been a while since I have done one of the Mojo Monday Sketches. Braedon took a long nap today so I had time to do this sketch before he woke.

I started with a 4 1/4 x 4 1/4 whisper white cs for the card base. I used Kiwi Kiss CS and the prints pack that was one of the hostess levels from last year (I think). The ink that was used was Kiwi Kiss, Stazon Black and Pretty in Pink. I used the stamp sets Party Hearty and a set from last years SAB Birthday Whimsy. I used the Scallop circle punch with the 1 3/8 circle punch and the eyelet border punch with pink ribbon and pop dots for dimension.

I hope you enjoyed stopping by my blog today. I hope you have a wonderful day.

Friend!!

Here's a box that I made with a matching card. The stamp set is from the mini catalog from Stampin' Up! called Great Friend. The ribbon and the whisper White CS is also from Stampin' Up!. The dp I'm not sure about.
Here's the matching post-it-note holder that I absolutely love.

Here's the actual post-it-notes. I used the stamp from Friends 24/7. I stamped it in pink pirouette ink.

What do you think about my photos? Don't you think they turned out really good. I have been looking for a light tent but did not want to pay a hundred dollars for one. I was searching the web last night and found instructions on how to make your very own inexpensive Light tent. So I rushed out to walmart this evening to buy all the supplies and voila my photos look really good.

If you are interested in the instructions to make your very own light tent without spending a lot of money, please let me know and I will pass the website onto you.

I hope you enjoyed stopping by. Have a great day!!

A Little Something For You!!!


Today I decided to make some stationery for a friend who loves birds. For the folder I used one sheet of 12x12 card stock. Scored at 6" and turned the card stock and scored at 9".



I used the stamp set Friends 24/7. I stamped the image in close to cocoa and stamped it onto white cs. I also used the stamp set from SAB called Yummy. It was also stamped in close to cocoa ink. I used chocolate chip ribbon and the envelope die from SU to hold the envelope seals. The envelopes and stationery sheets are from Papertrey Ink.


Hope you enjoyed stopping by. Have a wonderful day!!

For this card I used the stamp set Great Friend . This card is also 4 1/4" x 5 1/2".



I used the designer paper Walk in the Park. Also for this card, I used whisper white for the card base. For the designer paper I used the eyelet border punch. I used the square nestabilities on the so saffron and whisper white card stock. I used the paper piercer on the so saffron cs. I stamped the butterfly in close to cocoa twice and cut the one of the butterflies out and attached it to the second image. For you is also stamped onto whisper white cs in close to cocoa and I cut it out and adhered it to the card with a pop dot for dimension. I attached so saffron ribbon.
For the inside of the card is pretty much done the same way. I used a piece of kiwi kiss cs and another piece of Walk in the park dsp. I also used the eyelet border punch on the dsp. Attached so saffron ribbon and stamped the image onto whisper white cs and used the scalloped square punch.

Have a wonderful day!!
