SFYTT - FEBRUARY


Hello~

Are you ready for the weekend? I sure am......I want to play with my MFT February VIP Kit, which has the newest Who's That Girl? set, "Who's That Music Girl".  This is already one of my favorite MFT VIP kits..Tonight's card using that set was created for this months's SYFTT (Sketch For You To Try) on Jen Del Muro's Blog. This card is a little outside of my comfort zone. I'm not a "vintagy" crafter...In fact I have probably had this 7gypsies Paperie Variety pack for about 3 years, without using maybe but one sheet of it before tonight.  And my dust covered Pretties Kit got some attention tonight......after a few finger pricks or two....

Anyzoo ~ hope you liked my card tonight.....Thanks for stopping by.....

MFT WSC #7


Oh how I wish I needed an umbrella for a nice warm rain, but nope, more snow on the way tonight. (I wonder if our groundhog wants to reconsider this early spring stuff to make himself look a little better - LOL) 

Any how, this is my card for MFTWSC #7 on SCS. I used two MFT Stamp Sets, Pure Innocence My Umbrella & Rainy Day Friends (sentiment). This is one of my favorite sentiments stamps from MFT. :)  I used some MFT pattern paper, and some Prima Paper Flowers my mom gifted me for Valentines Day (looove them!) The brads are from basic grey, and all card-stock is from Gina K Designs (Chocolate Kiss, Soft Sand, and Apple Green. 

Thanks for stopping by ~

MOJO178 - Have A Seat


Hello,

Tonight I thought I would share my card for this week's MOJO Monday Sketch (#178), I used a stamp set from Unity (Comfy Cozy). I paper pieced the couch image with some retired SU! DP and close to cocoa card stock. The brown satin ribbon is from SU! and the brads are from Basic Grey.

Thanks so much for stopping by,

Thank You!


Hello, 


Today's card I have to share is one of my spots in Barb's Thank You Swap over on SCS! The tree image is from Funky Four (SU!)  & sentiment is retired from SU! I used some print pattern DP, and lots of Rich Razzleberry :) 


A good sign spring is finally coming, I was able to get out on to my patio and take the picture outside...there has been a lot of snowmelt this week, just hope it keeps melting! 


Thanks for stopping by ~

Dueling Divas ~ Love




Time for another Darling Diva's post......

Jamie is our lovely hostess this month, and the theme for February is LOVE.  Jamie has sent us the cutest card kit this month to play with, just love all the bright pink shades she has chosen! The main image is from Inkadinkado (Animal Hearts), and then sentiment is from Stampin' Up! I chose to do something different this month and make a 4.25" square card, since the image just fit perfectly. My supplies were oval punches, heart border punch, and Melon Mambo SU! card stock, everything else you see was in Jamie's kit.


This card is also being entered for this week's C4C challenge which is to use hearts :)

I hope you enjoyed my post for today, Please check out the other Darling Diva's as well (Judy just started her blog recently ~ Congrats!!!) 

Judy is next on the list

MOJO176 - Vintage Valentine


Good Evening, 


I hope you all staying safe and warm on this wintery Monday! The weather here is very much into full blizzard mode....which means I should have some time the next day to do some craftting while I am snowed in 


This card was created for two challenges, Mojo Monday's Sketch for yesterday and the Crazy 4 Challenges Blog Challenge for this past Saturday (Vintage). The heart border images are from the SU! set "Love You Much". The sentiment is from a prior SU! Hostess set. 


As always thanks for stopping by ~
