Sketch Frenzy Friday!!

Another week has come and gone and it's time for some Sketch Frenzy Friday inspiration! This is the sketch that we were given to play with this week:




And here is my card!



I stuck to the current IN COLORS for this one with some Whisper White added...The stamp set that I used here is called "Just Believe" and is becoming one of my faves :) I have used the Concord Crush Poly Ribbon....and at first I wasn't sure how I felt about this ribbon. But now that I have had the chance to play.....well....all I can say is OOOOH-LA-LA!! And of course my beloved BigShot made an appearance for this one as well :)

So there you have it...and now don't forget to mozy on over and pay a visit to Tina Taves and see what she has done with this week's Sketch! And if you have the time.....make sure you carry along the blog tour too :)

Happy Friday Ya'll!

Stamp with Tess Tuesdays!!

It's Tuesday again....so that means it's time for another Stamp with Tess Tuesday Challenge!! Your mission.....should you choose to accept it....is to CASE one of the projects featured on the new Catalogue cover.....and use some OLD product on it!! And by old....I mean retired :) Of course, if you don't have anything left that has retired....then use your imagination! But I am willing to be we all have a stamp set or a piece of ribbon or SOMETHING retired!!

Here is the card that I made based on the "Friends" card featured on the new cover!!

I used retired paper and retired ribbon.......lord knows I have ALOT of retired stuff to use up! LOL! Now it's YOUR turn!! You have until Sunday evening to link me to your creations!!

Sketch Frenzy Friday - July 9th

It's Friday again already!! Holy smokes are the weeks flying by!! My stamp room is now fully converted over to the new color collections and I am falling in love all over again :) Of course, I have a TON of paper and other goodies for sale too though! So if you are in need of a certain color....just drop me an email :)

On to Sketch Frenzy Friday!! Here is the sketch we were given to work with....


And here is the card that I made based on the sketch!

I am SOOOO in love with Concord Crush! I can't get enough of it! And I used one of the sets I got my hands on from the new catty too, called "Punched Posies." I am pretty sure that I will be using that set alot in the near future :)

Now don't forget to head on over to Tina Taves' blog and see what she has done with this week's sketch...and then carry on with the blog tour from there!

Farewell Sage Shadow...

As we are getting closer and closer to month end.....and the new Catty.....I am feeling the urge to create cards using up the colors I have to safe Farewell to as of July first! Oh sweet Sage Shadow, how I will miss you...

My love affair with Sage Shadow is a new one....and one that must come to an end all too soon I am afraid :(

Let me see YOUR Sage Shadow creations!!

Motivational Monday Challenge - Feb 22

Yesterday I made this Birthday Card and I love how it looks so much that I want to see what all of YOU come up with!!


So......your mission, should you choose to accept it is to create a Birthday Card using the following colors: Real Red, Brilliant Blue and Crushed Curry. Feel free to add the neutral of your choice! (And as always, if you don't have Stampin Up product.....or those particular colors....then just come up with a color scheme that is close and it will still count :)

Hope you have the time to play along this week!

Happy Valentine's Day Stampers!!

My husband is away this Valentine's Day so I am spending the evening Stamping instead of with him....and I have already finished up 2 cards! YAY! My girlfriend Heather and I are actually stamping together, virtually! We do this every once in awhile......when we can't get together to stamp in person :)

Anyway......here are a couple of the cards that I have made tonight! And they are NOT Valentine's!!

How did YOU spend your Valentine's Day? Happy Heart Day to all!!

P.S. Watch for my Motivational Monday challenge I will be posting tomorrow :) I have decided to get back into posting them weekly!

Thanks for Stampin' with Tess!
