I found the directions for this over on Angie Juda's site here http://chicnscratch.typepad.com/chicnscratchlive/ Scroll about half way down & you'll see the link for her video. I just think these ar adorable.
Sorry I haven't posted in a few days, but DH & I decided we wanted to buy a house so we have been out house hunting!!!! We found one and put a bid in for it at 10 PM last night!!!! UGH. We won't know until tomorrow afternoon if we got it or not, but it is beautiful. Please keep your fingers crossed for us!
Happy Stamping

Dreams du Jour Friendship Card


This was a fun little card to do! I just love the Tea Party DSP! The colors are just dreamy! I left the inside of the card blank, so it can be used for just about anything. I cut the butterflies out & popped them up with pop dots.
Stamps: Dreams du Jour
Paper: Lovely Lilac, Tea Party DSP, white, So Saffron
Ink: Lovely Lilac
Misc: blender pens, pretty in pink, always artichoke, SU scallop border punch
Have a wonderful evening!
Happy Stamping!

Digi Challenge over at Fred She Said + Winifred!





This is the card I came up with from the challenge over at Fred She Said here http://fred-she-said.blogspot.com/2009/07/freds-freebie-challenge.html. They gave you the free digi stamp and you were to design a card for it. This was a really fun challenge, plus I LOVE the stamp!
The 2 pics of Winnie were taken Friday night after she got home from the spa. As I posted earlier, she was exhausted. I think these pictures are just too cute!
Here's the deets on the card:
Stamps: Digi stamp from Fred She Said, Bitty Birthday (sentiment)
Paper: Soft Sky, Purely Pomegranite, Wild Wasabi & Candy Lane DSP
Ink: Blue Bayou
Misc: Big Shot, Fiskars texture plates
I choose the colors because the Wild Wasabi matched the green in the image very well.
Happy Stamping!

MMSC11--2nd post today



This is my entry for this week's MMSC11 challenge. Check it out www.priscillastyles.blogspot.com/ I'm using it as a birtday card for my dear MIL. Hopefully she won't check out my blog until after her birthday. She knew everything that she was getting for mother's day because I posted it on my blog without thinking about her being a follower. Oh well.


Here's the details:


Stamps: House Mouse Bird Watching, Bitty Birthday

Paper: Mellow Moss, Always Artichoke, Perfect Plum, Lovely Lilac DSPwhite

Ink: Staz-On black, Always Artichoke

Misc: Prismas, baby oil, MS butterfly punch, gold cord, pink glitter for the hummingbirds throat, buttos from Buttons Galore & More


This was a really fun challenge. Can't wait to see what's next.


Happy Stamping!

This card came out so soothing to me. The colors just blended so well. I may make a few more of these today, IF I get through playing all the challenges that I want to! This may have been a MOJO Monday sketch, I just can't remember. I have got to make/keep better notes! LOL
Here's the details:
Stamps: Friendship Journey
Paper: Baja Breeze, Walk in the Park DSP, white
Ink: Baja Breeze
Misc: Baja Breeze reinker (to dye the flower), brad
DH & I are watching some nature show and a gigantic octopus just ate a shark. YIKES!!!! That will make you think twice before going into the water! LOL
I may post again later today, if I get everything done.
Happy Stamping!

Get Well


I saw a card very similar to this on SCS and fell in love with it. Unfortunately, I forgot to copy the designer, so if anyone knows who did the original, please let me know so that I can give them proper credit. However, this is probably the only one of these I will make because it took forever to cut out the intricate design! UGH......
Stamps: Kind & Caring Thoughts
Paper: River Rock, Rich Razzleberry & Beige
Ink: Rich Razzleberry
Misc: glitter, 2 way glue pen, prearls, MS tri butterfly punch, SU tag punches
Winnie is still very tired from her day at the spa yesterday! She slept in this morning, and then has been asleep all day. She won't even come upstairs with me to my craft room!
Happy Stamping!

MMSC10 challenge but I missed the deadline!








I loved last weeks MMSC10 challenge! I just thought the layout was so versatile. I made all of these cards last weekend, but then didn't get them uploaded before the deadline on Tues night! YIKES. Two of the cards, the top & bottom are 5"x7". The middle one is the standard A2 size (5 1/2" x 4 1/4"). They were so much fun to do! I made an additional 8 of the middle size ones to use for the masculine birthday cards for my clients in August.
Winnie went to the groomer today. She goes to Olde Towne School for Dogs, and is so pampered there!!! While I was waiting for them to bring her down, a lady came in with 2 Portugese Water Dogs. Right inside the door is a display of bulk dog treats. (The plastic bin kind like they have in the grocery store.) One of the dogs walked up to the display, took his nose & pushed up the lid and helped himself to a treat. It was so funny!!!! Of course the lady was upset with the dog, but I thought it was adorable!
Here's the details on the cards:
Middle & Bottom Card
Stamps: Stipple Shells, Beautiful Beach, Bity Birthday (sentiment)
Paper: Night of Navy, Brocade Blue & White
Ink: Night of Navy, Brocade Blue, Bashful Blue
Misc: MS Sea Horse punch, dew drops, buttons, SU ticket corner punch, pop dots
Top Card
Stamps: Nostalgia
Paper: Mellow Moss, River Rock, Perfect Plum
Ink: Perfect Plum, Mellow Moss, Versa Mark
Misc: MS Butterfly trio punch, grapes & leaves dew drops, Elegant Eggplant ribbon
I have more cards to post tomorrow, so check back.
Happy Stamping!
