Ready to stamp today.

I am so ready to stamp today… I worked in the yard all weekend now I am sunburned and sore!!!! My arms and legs are sooooooooo sore. I did get my garden in and a new apricot tree. The rest of the weekend was just maintenance and boy there is a lot of that. So it was nice to sit and make a few cards today. I made this little set of 4 cards to sale at the craft show when I get around to doing one.
This little 3” x 3” card is for the swap challenge on paper craft planet. We could use 3x3 cardstock, 1 flower, 1 brad, one piece of ribbon, sentiment, and no patterned paper.
I hope everyone has a great week.

Make-A-Wish Thank You

Well I am not feeling all that creative lately. I think I am having some crafty block or something. Jan I haven’t even started on the Make-A-Wish gift basket yet. I have no idea what to make. I am going to take a few days off and work in the yard maybe by next weekend I will have some brilliant ideas. If not I can always run to Hallmark. lol

I did make a Thank You card for Make-A-Wish today because I was feeling a little guilty I hadn't made one in a while. Hope everyone has a great weekend.

Happy Mother's Day

Still on the quest to use all my stamp sets. When I got this set I really liked it but... I have not liked anything I have made with it. I think you may see this set sent to eBay.

You can find directions Here

Pick a Petal Bee

Here is a card we made at one of Gina’s classes. We had been talking about it a few weeks ago and trying to remember how we made it. I was happy to see I had taken a picture of it. The stamp set is pick a petal by stampin up.

Totaly CASEd

This one is totaly a copy of a friends. I used my sizzix and cuttlebug to cut and emboss. The paper is 12" x 5 1/2" folded at 4" & 8".
Hope everyone has a great weekend, mine is going to be a busy one but hope to get some stamping done. I picked a wish child for Make-A-Wish so hope to get some of that rolling today. I would like to make a gift basket of some sort to give her when we first meet. If anyone has any ideas please let me know, she is 8 years old. I am very excited yet very nervous about trying to grant a wish of a lifetime.

I am still on the quest to use all my sets. I haven't used this one but I don't know why.... It is very cute!

I used the stampin up markers to color the image. I then used a brush to pounce color around the image. Looking at it here I should of pounced color around the small image too. Not to worry I will take care of that before this one goes out.

Top Note Quit Blocks

I have been seeing these cards all over. I like the fact they can be used for any occasion. This one is another Make-A-Wish thank you, but I think I will be making a baby one…. I have been saying I want a baby around right…Well I won’t be a grandmother anytime soon but I will be a great aunt again... And this one lives here in town so maybe I will be seeing him/her more.
So for this card I punched 1” x 1” squares and glued them to card stock. I used the top note die from stampin up and then the cuttlebug embossing folder. Easy and fast and sometimes that is just what you need.

Smore Treat Box

I got to help with a wish today. What a joy it is to see these kid’s sooooooo happy. This child’s wish was to have a pop up trailer. Well we were able to help with that. And everyone had such a great time. I made this card and little smore treat box for him ( yup the reason I go camping is for the smores). Lol It was a great day!!!!

This started life as a Sonic Drive In Drink Holder. I have everyone saving all kinds of trash for me. lol

Paper Craft Planet Cuttlebug Challenge

Well today’s challenge was a fun one. It was to make a masculine card using only blue, green, and gray and a neutral of your choice oh and of course your cuttlebug die or embossing folder. I think this card is just so cute I tend to use this design quite often. It really is a quick and easy masculine card.
