Finally... my card using the Woodland Tree!

Happy Saturday!

If you watched my Tiffany Tutor video on Wednesday, you know that I wasn't able to create a card using the image I colored in the video. It was a crazy week. Thanksgiving just passed and now we're in full Christmas mode! It's INSANE!

Anyway, I was able to spend a little time in the craft room and created a card using the Woodland Tree I colored. I really like how it turned out!

supplies: CS: red (PaperTrey Ink), white (Neenah), kraft (Bazzill); DP: Echo Park; digi stamp: Woodland Tree (Tiffany Doodles); ink: Tuxedo Black (Memento) sentiment stamp set: Winter Wishes (K Andrew Design); Swiss Dot Embossing Folder (Cuttlebug); twine: Whisker Graphics; Copic Markers

 

At first I wasn't sure how to use the tree.... But I did a bit of crazy fussy-cutting around it and really loved the way it looked with the Swiss Dot embossed background! Looks like snow! :) And you all know I love sentiment stamps so I used a couple from the Winter Wishes set from K Andrew Designs. Love how you can mix and match the sentiments! Talk about versatility! :)

 

Thanks so much for stopping by my little ol' blog today! I'm really going to try and be good this month and have a post to share with you every day this month! Wish me luck! :)

Have a wonderful weekend!

Simply Sunday Challenge: Give Thanks

**This is my SECOND post for today! For my Birthday Sundaes Challenge post see my previous post HERE. Thanks!**

Hello again, everyone! Shocking, right? Yes it's another project!

For today's Simply Sunday Challenge, we're challenging you to create a Give Thanks card using K Andrew Designs Stamps! With Thanksgiving coming up on Thursday, this challenge should be a piece of cake! :)

Here's my card!

supplies: CS: kraft: Bazzill; DP: My Mind's Eye; Cricut Cartridge: Love You a Latte Lite; twine: Whisker Graphics: mini brads: SU!; stamp set: Coffee & Tee for You and Me (K Andrew Designs); ink: Chocolate Chip (SU!); Corner Chomper (We R Memory Keepers); acetate doily.

Here's the fabulous K Andrews Designs stamp set I used:

 

I had a fabulous time creating this card! I know it isn't a "traditional" thank you card, but when you value someone's friendship, a card like this is the best way of saying THANKS! What do you think? So many possiblilities and I just love how it goes so well with my brand new Love You A Latte Cricut Cartridge!

Hope you all get to join us for this week's Simply Sunday Challenge! Be sure to stop by Getting Cricky to see what the rest of the designers have in store for you! :)

Thanks for stopping by (again)! :)

SOG Guest DT try-out!

Hi All!

It's been one busy and overwhelming week! I'm JUST NOW able to post after being MIA for a few days. How's everyone doing?

This week I had to co-op in J's preschool class while, at the same time, DH co-opped in M's class. Pretty fun. I love working with the kids.

We also had a "Thankful Feast" in J's class yesterday. Super cute watching the kids eat and play together for their "Thanksgiving" meal. And thankfully, J ATE lunch! He's always been my pickiest eater!

Anyway, I wanted to pop in with a card I made for Some Odd Girl's Guest Odd Girl Challenge. I've always been in love with SOG stamps so I thought I'd play along!

Here's my card!

supplies: CS: Solar White (Neenah); CS: DCWV; digi stamp: Dancin' Kaylee (Some Odd Girl); doily die: MFT Stamps; sentiment: Splashtastic Summer Set (K. Andrew Designs) oval Nestabilities (Spellbinders); mulberry Flowers (iamroses.com); bling: Recollections; Copic Markers

I wanted to use a fun image for this challenge so I decided to color up Dancin' Kaylee. I'm a huge fan of Dancing with the Stars and So You Think You Can Dance so I just love love LOVE this image! I also wanted to use up my stash so I used this Currant Stack of paper from DCWV for my card. I don't make cards with a lot of purple so this was a bit of a challenge - fun, but a CHALLENGE!

I used a bit of bling, a doily die and my new flowers from I Am Roses. NOW I know what the hype is about these flowers! So fun! And since Dancin' Kaylee looks like she's having so much fun, I decided to pair her up with a fun sentiment from my Splashtastic Summer Set from K Andrew Designs!

Wish me luck with this DT call! I'm keeping my fingers crossed too! :)

Have a wonderful weekend!

you are FIN-tastic!

Hi everyone!

My kids actually let me work in the craft room (well, they were at my side of course!) and I was able to create another card!

supplies: CS: blue (Bazzill); Solar White (Neenah); DP: Echo Park'; stamp: Mermaid Anya (The Greeting Farm); sentiment stamp: Splashtastic Summer set (K Andrew Designs); stamping ink: Tuxedo Black (Memento), Night of Navy (SU!); twine: Whisker Graphics; wave border die: Taylored Expressions; Modern Label Punch (SU!); pearls: KaiserCraft; Copic Markers, dimensional adhesive

I was really in the mood to create another center step card like the one I made here. And you all KNOW already how much I love the Splashtastic Summer set from K Andrew Designs - nevermind that it's my only set I own! I plan on ordering more! It's super versatile - not only do these stamps work with Cricut cartridges perfectly, but they already work with a TON of stamps I already own! How awesome is that?! :) yay for using an older TGF Anya image! :)

Also linking up to TGF's Farm Fresh Challenge: Retro-Fresh Blue/Berry challenge! <--- say THAT ten times fast! *lol*

Thanks for stopping by today! Hope you all have a fabulous week! :)

aloha!

Hi everyone!

I had a little bit of time in my craft room today and wanted to share with you a card I made:

supplies: DP: green (Bazzill), Whisper White (SU!), Solar White (Neenah); DP: Echo Park; image stamp: Hula Anya (The Greeting Farm); sentiment stamp: Splashtastic Summer set (K Andrew Designs); stamping ink: Tuxedo Black (Memento), Pear Tart (Memento); grass punch: Martha Stewart; cloud punch: Fiskars; twine: The Twinery; mini brads: SU!; other: Copic markers, dimesnional adhesive

It's been a while since I've inked up my Hula Anya, but I thought it was appropriate - my family and I are headed to Hawaii next year! *happy dance* I'm super excited because this is our first BIG trip to Hawaii with the kids. We used to go almost every year before DH and I got married but after having kids... well, you know how that goes.

Anyway, I wanted to create this card as my FIRST official member of the Getting Cricky Junior DT. I used the "aloha" sentiment from the Splashtastic Summer set - I'm TOTALLY in love with these sentiments! You ALL know how much I love collecting different "aloha" stamps - I just had to have this one in my collection too!

AND another great thing about these sets? Kristal donates a portion of each sale to charity! Gotta love that!

Here's the set I used:

Cute, right?

Anyway, I'm also joining in on the fun at Card Patterns this week! It's been a while since I've played along! :)

Thank's for stopping by! Have a wonderful weekend!

Yay!

Hi All!

Happy Monday! I have some FABULOUS news to share! I've been asked to be a part of K Andrew's Getting Cricky Junior DT! Remember THIS card? Yeah, the one that I made for the DT call, but didn't think was worthy enough for me to be invited? Well, guess what? I'm WORTHY! :)

I'm SUPER excited to get to with some awesome K Andrew Design Stamps and showing you what I can do with them - Yup, you all KNOW that I love me some GOOD SENTIMENT STAMPS!

Best of all, that means I'll have more crafty posts to share with you during the week - YAY!

Thanks so much for stopping by today! Have a fabulous week, friends! :)
