Hiya! :) Can you believe it, I'm actually getting a jump on posting one of my cards! (Summer school picks up for my daughter today, so I'm trying to get myself to bed a little earlier than usual... We'll see if it works out! LOL)

I created this card for the very last Jacksonbelle Embellishments Challenge... I can't believe the past 6 months have already come and gone! Per usual, I am stamping (once again...*teehee*) with my beloved Iron Works by Prima set. I totally ♥ these images... They are so pretty. So elegant, yet not stuffy. I love that!

Well, I need to run along, but I hope you have an amazing Tuesday!

This week's Jacksonbelle Embellishments Challenge was to create a Clean & Simple card, and I used some of this pretty October Afternoon floral paper for my punched circles.

Jacksonbelle Tuesday Challenge - Get Krafty!

Good morning! :) This card was created for this week's Jacksonbelle Embellishments Challenge: Get Krafty. The challenge was to create a card using Kraft as your base... :) LOL, luckily, I remembered to do that considering when I wrote down the details, I just scribbled something about needing to use kraft *somewhere* on the card. Haha, must slow down and reeeead, Heather. LOL ;) On this card, I used the largest image in the Iron Works stamp set by Prima.  I've used this set a handful of times so far, and I really love the elegant look of the images.  Super pretty!

Jacksonbelle Tuesday Challenge - Taxes!

Hi everyone! It's super dreary here today and looks like it's going to rain at any moment, so I thought I'd give myself a little faux sunshine with a super bright color palette! :)

This card was created for today's Jacksonbelle Embellishments Challenge. Our challenge was to create a card using taxes as our inspiration... LOL, I can only speak for myself, but the thought of taxes nearly killed my mojo. Ha! :) I ended up using Pink Paislee green patterned paper as one of the main elements in my card, since green represents moolah. :) I also used some fun ledger paper with little graph paper circles... Sort of office-ish. LOL

Jacksonbelle Tuesday Challenge - It's a Sketch!

Hi, everyone! Hope you're having a wonderful Tuesday... The sun is out in full force here today, and Lost is on tonight, so it's shaping up to be a wonderful day! :)

This card was created for this week's Jacksonbelle Embellishments Challenge. Our challenge this week is a sketch challenge, and I used Basic Grey's Kioshi line, as well as an image from the Pure Innocence My Basket of Eggs stamp set. I have a teeny tiny flower punch that I picked up from the $1 bin at Michaels forever ago, and finally put it to use today. She's normally holding a basket of eggs, but I thought it would be cute for her to be holding a bunch of flowers instead. :)

Hi everyone! Boy oh boy, it's been quite the morning so far, and I've only been up for an hour. LOL!

It's Tuesday, which means it's time for another Jacksonbelle Tuesday Challenge. This week, the challenge was to use our favorite new stuff. I used one of Becky Fleck's March Page Maps for this layout, and some Making Memories "Just Chill" paper and Zva Creative flourishes I received recently. This page is sooooo cute IRL... I must've taken a million photos of this layout, but just couldn't get a decent photo, part of the page was always washed out, even when not using a flash... If any of you know the secret, please share! :)

Jacksonbelle Tuesday Challenge - Buttons, Bows & Brads

Hi everyone! Hope you're having a great Tuesday... We're just battling colds in the Pulvirenti household, but otherwise, all is well. LOL, I should say my daughter and I are battling colds, my hubby is always the lucky one who manages to stay healthy. Ah well, I'll take some sniffles and nasty headaches if it means I get more hugs and kisses from my sweet girl! :)

Today's card was created for this week's Jacksonbelle Embellishments Challenge. Our challenge? To create a card using buttons, brads or bows! LOL, sooooooo, now that I typed that, I've come to realize I don't have a brad, button OR bow on this! ACK! *smacks forehead* I originally started out thinking I'd make a card and add a bow using the sheer yellow organza ribbon from May Arts, but ended up adding a fun ruffle instead. So we'll just say I streeeeeeetched the bow idea, eh? *wink*
