Hello! Hope you are having a fantastic Memorial Day Weekend. I'm making a really good dent into my long list of swaps I have! This one is for Jen's "Don't Be a Square" swap. 

I made the oval card with my nestaiblities & CuttleBug. I used the SU Set Branch Out.

Hello! Happy Saturday! 

I thought I would post a card I made for a fancy fold swap Audrey is hosting on SCS. This is a Joy Card. I used Beate's Tutorial to make the card. They were a lot of fun to make. Now that I have  Score-Pal it's much easier to make these kind of cards! I used Asela's Zoo Animals (Gina K Designs) set for the card. This is such a CUTE set! 

The inside of the card is below:


Recipe:
Stamps: Zoo Animals (Gina K Designs)
Paper: DCWV Animal Crackers, Pink Pirouette, Chocolate Chip, White
Access: SU Hodgepodge Hardware, Score-Pal, 1/16" Hole Punch, SU Brown Ribbon

Another StampTV Challenge - Badger Style

Last Monday's Color Challenge on StampTV was to use Red, Black and White. So of course I had to do a Bucky Wee-Tee! LOL! I did the image and sentiment on my computer, printed it out on 80 lb. Gina K Luxury White card stock and stamped the Wee Tee image over the top (it took a few tries to get it centered) I used this weekend's Sketch over on Taylored Expressions. 

If I ever know of a family that's expecting and are huge Wisconsin Badger fans I'll have the perfect card to give them. LOL.

Sweet Wee-Tees!

Happy Friday! 

I'm so excited to be a Guest Designer for Melanie's new set Wee Tees (Gina K Designs). Here is my card for today. Last weekend I was walking around the baby section (of course!) of a store at the mall, and I noticed that there is a lot of spring baby stuff with fruits on them (especially cherries!) So that's where I got the inspiration to make this card. This card could be used as a congratulations card to a new mom and dad, or even a birth announcement (think how cute the inside would be if there was a picture of a baby in a cherry or red onesie!). The sweet sentiment is from Melanie's "Have a Cookie" Set (also Gina K Designs). The onesie was stamped on Gina K 80 lb Luxury White Cardstock, and then I sponged Bashful Blue Ink over it. 

I'm having SOOOOO MUCH Fun with Melanie's Wee Tee's set. I made a really cute project that Melanie is sharing on her blog today, so be sure to go over and check it out! 

Have a super weekend!

Good Evening! 

This week's color challenge over on StampTV was to use chocolate/brown and any other colors. So I pulled out my Gina K Chocolate Kiss Paper, some SU DSP scraps and this is what I ended up with. I used Sweetest Blessings (Gina K Designs) for the stamp set. I really like these colors together. I tend to use SU DSP from different packs on one card. I also did some piercing on the one of the panels. The image was colored in with Prismacolor Markers. 

Have a great night! :)

The card base was made with the Long Rectangle Nestabilities. I colored the image in with prismacolor markers. The "Super Mom" sentiment is from the Gina K Designs set "Little Tees"
