This is the card I created for yesterday's Sketch Challenge on SCS. At first I was going to use brown, then black, and then finally decided to use gray. I think I'd probably end up saving a lot of time when making cards if I could just make up my mind! LOL Maybe one day...Have a great one! :)

I created this card for yesterday's Color Challenge (Tempting Turquoise, Apricot Appeal & Creamy Caramel) on SCS... LOL, Caramel was the only color of the three that I had, so I substituted Taken With Teal and Summer Sunrise.

Fun news! Over the weekend, Natasha asked me if I would be interested in being a contributor for the Clean & Simple Stamping blog... LOL, I didn't hesitate before saying yes! I took a pretty huge blogging/crafting break for pretty much all of 2008 so it wasn't until I was browsing my friend Becky Carafa's blog that I was first introduced to the Clean & Simple Stamping blog back in March. I've been *hooked* ever since!! :) This is the card I created using the most recent Fall-to Layout Sketch. I used the smaller flourish from the Ashley's Blossoms set from My Cute Stamps.
Have a great one! :)

Happy Tuesday! :) This is the card I created for the Raspberry Suite Color Challenge - Week 11. It's hard to believe that there have already been 11 challenges! Wow! Where does the time go?!The colors for this challenge were black, leaf green, bright pink, bright red and light gray. It's a little hard to tell in the photo, but base layer is Raspberry Fizz, the scalloped layer is Soft Stone, and the layer right on top of that is Pure Poppy. It was starting to get dark outside when I snapped this photo and I've had the hardest time trying to get the colors to look correct! LOL, I'll probably just attempt to re-take the photo when there's more light! :)
Have a great one!

This is the card I created for today's Clean & Simple Challenge on SCS. Today's challenge was to make a birthday card... Easy peasy! :) I started with a Whisper White card base, and then stamped the large floral image from the Ashley's Blossoms set from My Cute Stamps in Memento ink. Once that dried, I colored in the flower images with Copics, punched out a Raspberry Fizz butterfly and added the sentiment.Have a great one!

Hey folks, how's it going? I hope you had a great day and are busy enjoying the beginning of the holiday weekend! My hubby is working tomorrow, so we had a little family BBQ here today with my inlaws and my parents and little bro... It was fun, but it makes for lots of work for me since I'm the grill-master at our house. :) LOL, my husband could find a way to burn ice!This is the card I created for yesterday's Ways to Use It Challenge: Cardboard. Nothing complicated, but that's par for the course!Have a great one!

I created this card for yesterday's Sketch Challenge on SCS. When I checked my email yesterday morning, I had a whole bunch of new comments on an older card I had made, and I was like, hmmmmm... LOL, it didn't take too long to figure out why when I saw yesterday's sketch and my card was one of the samples. Unexpected, but very fun! :) The black stars on this card originally had a thin outline of dots, but after I cut all the stars out, they wouldn't fit on the Whisper White panel I'd already cut out, so I ended up chopping them off. LOL, do I know how to waste my time or what?? :)Have a great one!

I created this card using the colors from yesterday's Color Challenge on SCS and the most recent Mojo Monday Sketch. Can you believe it's already July?! When I was a kid, it seemed like the days dragged onnnnnn forever, but now, before I even know it, more than half the year has gone by! Yikes.
Have a great one!
