Hey, everyone!

Last week I came up with a new color combo. You can look here for the card I created. The colors are white, red, blue, green and brown. You can use any shade of those colors that you want. You can make a scrapbook page, alter an item, create home decor, an ATC or regular size card like the one I am sharing today:

I used the Circle Sampler stamp set to create the large circles in the background. the red polka dots are from the Build-A-Background Hostess Level A stamp set. The sentiment is from You Are and the image is from Fairytale Fun. The white faux stitching is created using my favorite white gel pen! I used Copics to color in the pillow the frog is sitting on. I added sparkle on the crown and around the trim and tassels on the pillow with my Stardust Glitter Gel Pens. I used my Tombow markers for the frog and the crown.

Next week I will have a new color combo so be sure to come and check that out!

St. Patrick's Day StampTACular Tuesday Challenge

Hey, everyone!

Thank you for stopping by today! Happy St. Patrick's Day!!! This is a wonderful day. My daughter and I will be making our traditional sugar cookies with green sprinkles on them but I will also be sharing this tradition with my son who is 19 months old today! I am so excited to see what he thinks of baking cookies for the first time ever!

I made a card to share with you for the StampTACular Tuesday Challenge. Christina and I love St. Patrick's Day so we are using the Celtic Images stamp set. This is a fantastic set!! Be sure you check out what Christina made and leave her a little love! I decided to just share a card with you all today. I have shared other St. Patrick's Day items the past few days so today I just made a card. I wanted to show how versatile it is to use this stamp with other elements besides Willoughby. This designer paper is from the JUST LIKE DAD paper pack that we carry. The stamp is inked in Viridian Leaf and then colored in with my green Stardust Glitter Gel Pen and it really shimmers! I used my white gel pen for the doodle dots and faux stitches. I hope you like it!
I am eager to share more with you this week! Don't forget to come by tomorrow to see my Scripture Challenge page. The word for this week is TRUST! I hope you like the scrapbook page I share with you tomorrow.

I appreciate all of you who have expressed an interest in placing an order with me. Just make sure you get your order in before the end of this month so you can take advantage of the awesome specials going on all month long and to be entered to win my contest. One of you will win a stamp set from the list (above this post) if you place an order for $30 or more!

Tickled Pink!

Hey, everyone!

Today's project is a gift set. The little box holds the sticky note holder perfectly! I haven't given this away yet but I wanted to show you how easy it is to make a small gift that can really mean a lot!
I created this little box just by playing around with different measurements. I thought it would be fun to add some of the Winterberry paper and my shiny satin ribbon.
I am not sure why it appears flourescent but the pink scalloped circle really isn't like it looks here in real life! LOL
The monogram letter is stamped with the Scripty Bet stamp set in Belle Rose ink and then gone over with the pink Stardust Glitter Gel Pen. The scalloped circle is embellished with my Extreme White Gel Pen. The notepad cover is embellished with the Stardust Glitter Gel Pen in faux stitching around the circle and doodle dots on the scallops. I hope you like it! Don't forget that today is your last day to leave comments on my blog! I will be sending a prize to the person who sent me the most. Be sure you come back tomorrow to see who it will be!

Melisa gave me some awesome stamped images from The Angel Company JOY OF CHRISTMAS stamp set. It's item # T2962. You get 7 stamps for only $15.95. Let me know if you would like to order it.

I have a card class at Memory Lane scrapbooking store. It will be my last class this year and might be the last one ever as they are going to be closing the doors! I am so saddened by this news! The owners and the entire staff are so friendly and awesome and I enjoy having a store right here in Bedford to just pick up some paper or scrapbook supplies, extra adhesive or just to look! The class I will be teaching is for a very fun 3D card featuring milk and cookies for you-know-who, an envelobox so the card doesn't get squished, a never-ending winter card that measures 6x6 and matching envelope! What a fun class! Pictures will be posted Friday of lots of fun projects! Please check back with me tomorrow when I will have my last two 3x3 cards for my purse! I hope to see you then!

Hugs,
