Traveling Turtle

Hello!

Here's a card I made for a Gina K Release Party Challenge, which was to make a kids' card. I used Whatever Floats Your Boat, Tag You're It, and the new Ribbon Stripes to make this card. The main image was colored in with Prismacolor Markers and cut out.

Sorry this is a short post, I'm a little under the weather this week. 

Hugs,

Spartan Pride

Hello! Happy Friday! 

Gina K Designs had a new release party last night ~~ sooooo much fun! I couldn't wait to get to the store and get my new stamps! And of course the first set I had to have was Sporty Accessories (designed by Melanie Muenchinger). This set is so cute! And totally up my alley being a sports fan! 

This is the first card I made with the new set. I decided to go with my HS alma-mater team colors (McFarland Spartans). I love these blues together! The star image is from the new buy 3 get 1 free set Lazy Days of Summer. 

Ok gotta go play some more!

Hugs, LJ

Potluck Friday Challenge

Hello! Happy Friday! 

I made this card for the Friday Potluck challenge over on StampTV, which was to use textures and patterns. The patterns part was easy, pretty DSP, but texture?  that was hard for me, until I remembered I picked up this corrugated card-stock at a stamping & scrapbooking show last fall (knew I was saving it for something LOL), I used Rupa's Guiding Light (Gina K Designs) for the images and sentiment (inside)

I also did the inside of the card this time, which I don't do very often, but I really wanted to use the sentiment, and with a dark card-stock base it kind of just worked this time.

Hope you enjoy! 

Hugs, LJ

Bean Thinking About You

Hello! I made this card for the latest Sketch Challenge over on Stamp TV. I haven't used "My Cuppa Joe" (Gina K Designs) in awhile so I pulled it out for the challenge. The DP is by Basic Grey (bittersweet) and I think it worked really well with this image.

Out of This World

Hello! 

I think this is one of my favorite Wee-Tee cards I have made so far, and it just might be the colors. I've never used Pacific Point with Certainly Celery before, but this DP was in the DCWV Glitter Stack and it went really well together. I used this week's MoJo Monday Sketch for the layout. 

Have a super day!

My Tailgate or Yours?

Hello! Today should be a crazy day for me at the office, since I am just going back after having a nice long 4-day weekend! It was so nice though to have some time off! 

Anyways, this is the 2nd of two cards I made for the Summer Picnic Swap on SCS. This card uses a Gina K Designs Set called "My Tailgate or Yours" which is one of my favorite GKD Sets. I just LOVE football (especially my Badgers!) 

Have a terrific Tuesday!

Happy Memorial Day!

Since Memorial Day weekend is the "unofficial" start to summer, I thought I would share a summery card I made for a Picnic themed swap over on SCS. I have been busy catching on swaps this weekend! I have two spots (the 2nd of which I will share tomorrow) but this is the first one. I love making pocket cards. they are my favorite "special card" to make. 

I hope you enjoy it and have a wonderful and safe Memorial Day!
