My Newest Card Sets

A finished Quilt!

My soft take on the New York Beauty Block...

Creating Cards and Making Quilts:::

This card was created with The Shabby Tea Room Monocramatic Challenge in mind.  I used only card stock and scored the white card stock and added Reflections paper pearl stickers and then the Happy Birthday was made with my Letterpress by L.  The wonderful ribbon came from my stash of wonderfulness.  Please enjoy this creation and thank you to The Shabby Tea Room for this inspired Challenge.

Pals Paper Arts #91... Buttons!

Here is my card for the Pals Paper Arts #91.  This card is about buttons...not quantity but quality.  I have to stay with my simple design...it's my style :)  I used DCWV Lemmon Flower.  The button brads are by Spare Parts and ribbon by Robert Stanley.  I made the "Happy Birthday" tag using my Letterpress :)  Enjoy!

The Shabby Tea Room Week #60

Here is my card for the Shabby Tea Room Challenge #60.  I love the Inspiration picture and from it, this is what I came up with.  I used Basic Grey Kioshi paper for the backround.  The bird and flower paper is from Making Memories, Chloe's Closet.  I also used Recollections Paper Stickers and made the flower myself.  The ribbon came from my stash of wonderfulness.  Enjoy!

Case Study Challenge #37

I love the Case Study Blog and the wonderful creations I find there.  This case study sample, #37 is breathtaking and here is my card that was inspired from it.  I used Die Cuts With a View Lemon Flower and Recollections Paper Stickers.  I used my Cuttlebug Embossing Die for the background paper.  The Happy Birthday was made with my Letterpress.  I made both flowers and the ribbon came from my stash of wonderfulness.  Enjoy!

Get Sketchy #70

Well Happy Day!  This is my first Challenge in months and I am so happy to get back in the game.  Just getting over having a hysterectomy and finally back to work, feeling good, ready to be creative once again.

I am starting with one of my favorites:  The Get Sketchy Challenge #70.  For this card I used such pretty papers:  The Little Yellow Bicycle - Freshprint Clothesline and The Girls Paperie - Paper Girl.  I used a Fiskars Stamp - All Year Greetings and my Ink is Stampin Up - Bordering Blue.  I used Rhinestone Stickers by Recollections.  Everything else came from my little stash of wonderfulness.  Enjoy!
