From me to YOU!
Happy Monday! I am thrilled that you've stopped back over here. Today's card is for the ABC Challenge: Birthdays! Have you joined us yet? You should, you could win a gift certificate to the store!
The base of my card is made with a pink bazill cardstock and the DSP is all Basic Grey. The flag in the middle is hand made, the two smaller flags are Hero Arts Friendly Flags.
Then I added a couple little pink buttons and some pink bakers twine (love this stuff!).

The Cat's PJ's
Hello! Well I am kickin out the cards this week! I have been trying to make time to create, otherwise I just feel like "ugh". So I set to going through my favorite challenges, determined to get a few done this week!
Ok, so this card is using the inspiration from the TCP challenge: it reminded me of pink lemonade with a little cherry in it. And it needed to be clean and crisp. I guess there is not much else to say- you think? Plus who can resist that tart n tangy set?

Flowers and Lace
I love the look that I got with the Tim Holtz Texture fade Patchwork when I inked the folder up and then used white paper in it. I think that the Heartfelt Daisy's soften it up: and perfectly cut with the spellbinder exclusives. The ribbon is sheer polka dot .

Waltzing Friends!
Welcome to Wednesday (hump day!). I hope that your week is going great and yahoo, think about it- it is almost half over! We are suppose to get an ice storm today! Uh, oh yeah, it is the middle of March! Anyways- thank you so much for stopping in.
This card started with bashful blue cardstock and then the two coordinating papers are from my stash and I think it is basic grey, but I can't be sure. I just loved the browns, blues and vintage feel of it all. Of course I had to do some distressing and boy did I make a mess... I had shreds of paper all over. LOL!
The sketch for this one is from Waltzingmouse and another challenge is Simon Says: my "word" is Friend. I must say I do love this one. Have a great day!
Get Your Diva On!

Its YOUR day!!!
Hello and thanks for stopping over today- a Monday! I appreciate your time and hope that you will find some inspiration today. This project if for ABC Toys and Crafts.
Today's little box, yes it is a little box with a magnetic closure in the front. It is perfect for putting a little necklace or a some small birthday gift for someone! It is made for the ABC Toys and Crafts challenge this week which is what? BIRTHDAY's! I hope that you will stop over and even participate in the challenge, who doesn't need birthday cards, boxes, bags or even party favors? I will be posting some more over the next couple of weeks!
I covered the box with Basic Grey Sublime paper. I then took some neenah cream cardstock and used the MS Floral Vine punch, distressed it with a little brown ink. I then took a little birthday message and inked it with momento black ink. I then cut used a couple of the nestabilities Oval and Label 14 . The flowers are made with prima roses and the seam binding came from my stash. Just love this stuff!
So stop over and make a birthday card and join us!

VERVE FAN HOP

Hello all my wonderful friends! Today I am participating in a little Verve Fan Blog Hop............ yep, Julee has her fans excited about her new releases each month and this month we get to participate in a hop of our own. There are some amazing creations and you can join us!
My project is actually a tri-fold card that I created using alot of elements. I started with a base of cream made with Tim Holtz dies. I had to spend a fair amount of time measuring, matching up papers and curves (lets just say it was a little tedious, but fun!). I used the October Afternoon designer papers because I always feel happy matching them up with my cheerful VERVE stamps. I don't know, just sayin! I added a few little elements like the tag that has the little nestabilities square and a heart made of DCWV chipboard.
