Dueling Darlings - Past Favorites

My prior kit - Inky Antics Stamps

Hello ~ Hello

The Divas and Dazzlers are taking the month of December off - in order to be able to spend more time with their families during the holidays. :) Since we have no card kit this month, I thought I would pop in with some of my favorites from previous kits we have completed throughout our fun duel together! I hope you enjoy traveling back with me :) Thanks for stopping by!

Hello ~ Hello

I so love this older MFT Set (A Scarf For Three) and decided to pull it out for this week's My Favorite Things Wednesday Sketch Challenge. I used patterned paper from Crate Paper's Peppermint Collection, some glimmer brads from American Crafts & red twine.

My 500th Blog Post :-)

Hello ~ Hello 


Can't believe this is my 500th blog post - doing a a little celebration with a cute image from My Cat's Pajamas Stamps. I never imagined I would have a crafting blog with this many posts.....When I started my blog, I thought I would post something every now and then, 500 just seems like a huge number for me. I read and appreciate every single comment left here ~ positive thoughts keep me going ~ so thank you for taking time to stop by. And if this is your first time here, welcome. I hope you stop back....


Sketch is from the Sweet Sunday Sketch Challenge I also needed a Birthday card for a co-worker this week, so this card will be perfect for her. I used patterned Paper from SEI - Happy Day 6X6 paper pad. The twine is from My Mind's Eye. I also decorated the inside of the card (seen below). This card is going to be from the department I work in, so I needed to leave enough room for everyone else to sign:

Thanks for stopping by today ~ have a great Wednesday!

Gift Tag

Hello Hello

Hope you are enjoying your Tuesday - Here is a cute tag I created, well cased from Jen del Muro's blog HERE. The ornament is 6 1.25" circles folded in half and adhered together. Two ends are adhered to the tag. The leave images and sentiment are from PTI's Holiday Button Bits. I used some retired SU! Patterned paper to create the ornament. and Vintage PTI Holiday Button. My ribbon and twine are also from SU!

I'm going to be making a few more of these to use throughout the holidays, so simple and cute!
