Waterfront Birthday

Here is my take on the sketch challenge from CAS(E) this Sketch.  I used the Waterfront stamp set from Stampin Up along with the Stitched Shapes die.  It is a clean and simple card that was created very quickly....now on to another day of play with my mom and sister!!  Yesterday was so much fun being together...Laughter is the best medicine!!  So thankful for this rare weekend together!!

Happiness Always

We have a summer/fall full of weddings this year...including our daughters.  I decided I better get started on making some wedding cards.  I do wish each couple...Happiness Always!!  


This card was inspired by the sketch from Hand Stamped Sentiments.  I used Stampin Up's Flourish thinlits die and some retired designer papers. It was also created for the Celebrations challenge from Paper Craft Crew...I think a wedding definitely qualifies as a celebration!!

Fab Friday//You're the Best

Today,  I am playing along with the sketch challenge from Fab Friday.  Stamping Up's Still Night stamp set kinda got put away in my group of Christmas stamps (the sentiments and snowflakes in the set make it more Christmasy) but this Owl makes an excellent masculine card.  Thankful that I ran across it today while looking for something!!

Hoppy Birthday

Vertical Sketch with Designer Series Paper and banner on the top third with a large circle then smaller circleHere is my take on the sketch challenge from Paper Craft Crew.  I got a bit creative and I am not sure if it is a good representation of the sketch but it was truly my inspiration.  I used Stamping Up's So Hoppy Together stamp set with matching dies.  My sentiment is one of their retired sets...an oldie but goodie!!

3 Gifts Challenge: (using Ann Voskamp's 1000 gifts daily prompts)  a gift picked up, put away, put back...my little ones--while they are grown now I sure loved picking them up and hugging them!!  Laundry...nothing like a job complete and put away!!  Wedding dresses put back in their wedding boxes...it sure was fun seeing my daughter try them on mine and my sister's.

Lily Pad Lake

My card today was inspired by two challenges.  The color challenge from the Color Throwdown challenge and the sketch challenge from Sunday Stamps.  The color combo this week was...kraft, blue, green, and coral pink.  I used Stampin Up's Marina Mist, Wild Wasabi, Calypso Coral, and Crumb Cake.  The Lily Pad Lake stamp set with matching dies from Stampin Up fit perfect for this color combo.
