Cruisin'

Hope everyone is doing great today!

this week.

We are being sponsored this week by

 

 

 

 

 

 

If you haven't checked out these stamps yet, I hope that you will stop

by their shops and take a look.

 

This week I got to use a really great stamp from The Paper Shelter.

I wanted to do something with a Springy/Summery feel to it.

I thought this paper with the County Fair on it was perfect for the convertible stamp.  Just ready for cruisin'!

 

 

I used some cute paper from My Mind's Eye 6x6 paper pad.

I added a cute little wood trim from Stay True To God.

 

I hope that you will join us over at Just Inspirational Challenges this week.

My New Spring Outfit

WOW! We have had absolutely gorgeous weather the last few days.

I am sooo lovin' it!

It has really put me in the mood for this week's

All Dressed Up challenge.

The theme this week is SPRING!

 

I used this really cute stamp "Love My Sister".



As much as I love this stamp, since I only have one daughter,
I only used one of the girls.

I decided to make a tag to put on a gift for my daughter.
A new Spring outfit.

 

I used DCWV Sweet Stack paper.

I added some white pleated and pink ruffled gingham trim.

A few sparkly flowers, some crystals, and a few ribbons for an added touch.

 

The pink and white colors with the flowers and ruffles

really make me think of Spring.

 

Please join us over at All Dressed Up Challenges this week.

Bubble Time!

Happy Sunday afternoon!!

It is one beautiful day, and I'm lovin' it!

 

I wanted to share this adorable Lacy Sunshine stamp I used on my latest tag.

I needed to make a tag to put with a bottle of bubble bath
that I am going to be giving as a gift with some other bath things.
Kind of a Spa gift.

 

Isn't she just too cute!

And perfect for this gift!

 

The sentiment is form All Dressed Up.

These are some fabulous stamps.

 

I used Graphic 45 Botanical 6x6 paper pad.

I added some fabulous lace and fibers.

And for the bubbles, I originally used some Glossy Accents,

but then decided to use these great gems I found at Michael's Craft Store.

Don't they look just like real bubbles?

 

I also wanted to add a little distressing look for a more shabby chic look.

So, I used a small paintbrush to roll down the edge of one of the corners.

Spring is Here!

I hope everyone is doing well today.

I am sooo ready for Spring weather, and we had it today.

Just beautiful!!

 

So I was in the mood to do a Springy project, and one of the ones I

decided on was a From The Heart stamp.

 

I used their sketch for this because I really liked how it fit with this stamp.

 

 

 

I love the fun, Springy colors of this card.

So cheerful!

Good Monday Morning!!

And this is a fabulous Monday morning.

I have been sick for the past week, but today I am feeling much better.

 

Today I have a tag/bookmark I want to share with you.

I used a fabulous new stamp from All Dressed Up stamps.
They have just released some more fabulous stamps.

If you haven't seen these yet, please stop by their shop and check them out.

They are wonderful!!!

 

 

All Dressed Up also has some really great freebies!

You have got to see them!

 

For this card I used one of their new stamps

"Just So Cool".

This one reminds me so much of my daughter, I had to use her.

 

 

 

I used some fabulous paper from DCWV Performance mat stack.

I added some white glitter paper to the top of the tag.

I added some sparkly music note cutouts from a music border punch.

I also added some pretty glittery ribbon accross the top.

 

And of course since I love glitter and sparkle, I added some black crystals along one side, and some clear crystals in the border next to the girl.

I also used my silver glitter pen to color her hair barrette.

 

For the final touch I added some black/white polka-dotted ribbon,

some pretty silver fibers, and some other ribbons and fibers.

 

Please join us over at All Dressed Up for their current challenge.

Easter Sweets!

I have been doing a lot of nothing this weekend since I have been so sick.

But I did decide to do another card.

 

I used the sketch from From The Heart.

 

 

 

I used this cute little stamp from From The Heart stamps.

I paired it with DCWV Sweet Stack (one of my all time favorites).

I made a little bow out of some netting and then framed the bunny with it.

 

And I decided to do something different this time, I didn't use my Copics.

I decided to use color pencils.

I have been doing a little bit of crafting.

 

Since my daughter is an avid baker and cook,

I decided to make her a bookmark for her cookbook.

 

 

My daughter and I both love the chalkboard look, so this was perfect for her.

 

I used my Copic markers to make the "chalkboard".

 

 

I used this super cute Chef stamp from Bugaboo.

I used some Teresa Collins "Noel" paper for the tablecloth.

And of course, I added some fabulous red, black, and white ribbons and fibers.
