Sweet Summer Day 1

Welcome to Sweet Summer week on my blog. I've been creating and creating for you using Sweet Summer. This is a Sale-a-Bration stamp set, so you only have until March 30 to earn it for free. Anyways, everyday this week I will be using you samples using this stamp set. Most have been CASED or at least inspired by someone else. The first one for you uses Daffodil Delight, Whisper White, Pear Pizzazz, and Pumpkin Pie. The sentiment is from Hodgepodge Happiness.



Thanks for stopping by and stay tuned for another Sweet Summer card tomorrow.

Another SFF Share

Here is the last card that I created using the sketch from last Friday. This involved very little stamping and was a CASE. The sentiment is from Bring on the Cake. The colors are Poppy Parade and Whisper White.


Thanks for stopping by. I've finally had some time to stamp so I have some more new creations for you in the upcoming week.

As promised, here is another card that I created based on yesterday's sketch. This time I used Apple Blossoms. The colors are Melon Mambo, Wild Wasabi, Poppy Parade, Concord Crush, and Whisper White.


And then I decided to step it up a bit and added a couple more layers.


As always, thanks for stopping by!

Sketch Frenzy Friday 03/11/11

Welcome to Friday and Sketch Frenzy! Here is today's sketch.






It's a pretty simple sketch, but I had troubles coming up with something that I liked. But once I did, I was on a roll. I created a total of three cards with this sketch. Here is the first one. I used Sweet Summer, You're A Gem, and Live, Laugh, Love. The colors are Rose Red, Baja Breeze, Very Vanilla, and Basic Black.


Thanks for stopping by and don't forget to come back tomorrow to see another card with this sketch. Your next stop is our homepage where you can add you're own creation.

DCBC Color Challenge

It's time for this week's Diva Coffee Break Challenge. This week is a color challenge, let's check them out.





And here is my creation. Now I have to admit, this was a hard job to accomplish. Not because of the colors, but because of my new stamping area. As you might know, I've been in the moving stages for about two weeks now. In addition, I'm downsizing my craft area. In my old place, I took out my dinning room table and took over the dinning room with my craft center. Well TC is coming back soon, and he insisted that we have a dinning room table to have dinners at (what a concept) so I now have to share with the dinning room table and I'm not a happy camper. I no longer have my stuff at my finger tips, not to mention things are still not unpacked.  It took me like five minutes to find my paper trimmer, another for my punches...you get the point. Anyways, back to my sample, I used Sweet Summer and You're a Gem.





Thanks for stopping by and your continued patience while I unpack the rest of my stuff. Don't forget to check out the other design team's creation and add your own on out homepage.

More Birthday Shares

Well, my life is almost back to normal. Yesterday, we moved all my furniture and the majority of the other stuff that I didn't move. And by we I mean my awesome future in-laws, brother and cousins. Most of the stuff is organized too, minus my stamping stuff. That's a whole other project. That being said, I still haven't been able to get into my stamping room (and by that I mean dinning room) to create anything new. But I do still have some birthday SAS cards to show you. Here is the first one. I used Create a Cupcake and Bring on the Cake. The colors are Pretty in Pink, Early Expresso, Whisper White, and Crumb Cake.





Thanks for stopping by!

Sketch Frenzy Friday!

Sorry I've been MIA all week, I'm in the middle of moving and my house is a disaster zone right now and my stamp stuff is between the two places. Tomorrow, I'm moving my big furniture, so hopefully things calm down after that. Now, if only I could find a path to the door....

Anyways, I digress, it's Friday, so that means it's Sketch Frenzy Friday and today the sketch is created by me. And here it is.

And here is the card that I created. I used neutral colors, Crumb Cake, Chocolate Chip and Whisper White. The stamp set is Plane and Simple. It's not my favorite, but it'll do. I made it last weekend and was going to redo it, but obviously that didn't happen.


And one more picture for you, unstamp related. Last night at my monthly gathering of scrapbook friends, we were discussing uses for the Alex drawers from Ikea (a must have) and Toby must have heard us. Today, he so kindly showed me another use for them when they are empty. Have a look for yourself.
