Mojo

Good Day! 
You know, I was trying to figure out what to say about this card and you know what- what is there to say? I don't need to tell you how I stamped it, cut it..... blah blah blah.  All I can honestly tell you is that I love how it all fit together:  EP paper + MOJO sketch= sweetness. 
That is it!

Things with Wings!!!!!

Hello, today is Pixie Cottage Wednesday!  

Over on the Pixie Cottage Design Team Challenge we have a sketch and a challenge to use things with wings.  Of course, I headed towards the little butterflies- just loving them and with spring (hopefully) around the corner I was hoping it would lighten my days.  I am also loving the die cuts cut out of the base of the card so I used one of my cheery lynn die cuts.  The image of lillies is colored with copic markers.  

Do come on over and join us this week!

Sweet as Jelly Beans!

 Happy Monday! 
I hope that you stopped over yesterday and were able to get started on your Spring/Easter cards for the ABC Toys & Craft Challenge this month!  If not.............
In the meantime, I made this little Easter card with one of the MCS sets called Jelly Beans .  Now you might wonder how I made the little jelly bean machine?  I used the smallest of the nestabilities flower pots, nestabilities circle/lacy circle and then a variety of smaller punches.  I was thrilled with the way it turned out.   I stamped the jelly beans in pink/purple and then I cut some out to layer them in the glass globe. 
  That is it for this Monday- come join us for our challenge and show us your Spring/Easter creativity!

ABC Toys & Craft March Challenge- Spring!


Welcome to another ABC Toys & Craft Challenge!  I do hope that you will join us!  We are challenging you all to make Spring, Flower, or Easter cards.  How easy is that going to be?  Plus there is a prize give away too!  

This card started with the Cuttlebug swiss dots embossing folder.  Then I used the nestabilities flower pot die - is that not the cutest?  Topped out the little pots with a variety of MM flowers and rhinestone brads.  I know it is not warm enough here for flowers but that card sitting on my desk cheers me up!  
So?  what are you waiting for- click on it and join in the fun!

Thanks A latte.............

Hello and happy Friday! 
I am once again looking forward to my weekend, my son will be home and he is on break next week!  Yahoo! 
But for today's card- I am using the skipping stones challenge this week.  As soon as I saw it I knew what I was going to do with it.  I have been itching to use this cute little Verve set that I just had to have and have been neglecting.  
I hope you all have a splendid Friday and weekend!  

Also- check back on Sunday as ABC Toys and Crafts will be starting a new challenge- one I do think will entertain your creativity for the next 4 weeks!

Pixie Cottage Wednesday!


Happy Hump Day! 
I am thrilled as I get today off. My plan: get my son off to school, do a small work assignment (done by 7a) and then back to bed.  I like to treat myself to sleep in till 9a on my days off.  That also means I get to stay up late (I am easily entertained, right?)  

Well anyways- that is not why you are here is it?  So I will talk alittle about my card.  I pulled out Tilda for this one, I have not used any of my magnolia images I bet for at least 4 months.  But one thing that is nice about the Pixie Cottage stamps is that they work so well with the Magnolia's.  Look at this little bench with the crisp golden delicious apples!  Nice spring day with the cute little clouds in the air.  

This week over at the Pixie Cottage Challenge  there is the theme of "anything goes" and then a sketch.  You should come on over and join us this week- winner gets a prize! 

Tata for now!

Girlfriend- it's your Birthday!

Happy Monday!! 
I hope you all had a great weekend and although Monday's are not my favorite day of the week I got to show you my creation for ABC Toys & Crafts.  We are still focusing on MS Punches and this week I used a couple of them.  Last week I focused on thank you cards and this week, yep- Birthday.  I love how the card turned out with the circles, rectangle, the little ledger and well it just feels good. (nothing like tootin your horn huh?)  Well at least I hope you like it some.  

Now February's challenge ended but we will be starting a new one this coming weekend so don't forget to come back and join us starting Sunday!
