Pixie Dust!

As a lot of people know I LOVE Tinkerbell..and if you didn't know...now you know haha! I love all fairy's they make me smile! There are not very many Tinkerbell stamps out there so I figured I'd use a coloring book image that I found a while back online and make a card with it. Lately I've been into digital images..I thought this would be perfect! So here is the card that I made and I also paper pieced the wings, dress and shoes...isn't she so cute? I'm a little late on the sketch challenge but I did use the sketch from Mojo Monday #79.

Trish and I got together and made a really cute Easter basket. I'm not 100% completely done so I will post that in the next few days along with a few other things I have done...I'm late on posting.

Wind go away...So I can pick the Spring Flowers!

UGH! today is so windy, cold and ugly outside. The dirt is flying everywhere!!!

Today Pink Papery design team ladies were challenges to do WHATEVER we wanted! So I picked the basket girl from the line called between us girls. Pink Papery has this digital image for sale in the store. I just so wish it was nice enough to actually go out and pick the flowers!

Pink Papery Studio - Love the Bug!

This weeks challenge I was asked by Amy to make a sketch! So we were challenged to use the sketch that I made and the cute little digital image love bug from Simply Sista's. Don't forget to visit all the Design team ladies blogs to see the awesome cards that they all made using this sketch and the same image. I will also be posting them on the Pink Papery Blog so don't forget to go leave them some love on their cards!

I'm here & still alive!

Life has been really busy for me lately I haven't been able to post much. I had a stamping class this last Sunday which turned out to be so much fun. I will get pictures of all the projects we did later this week.

Last Wed. we had Pink Papery's weekly challenge and I of course am a little late posting it on my blog. We were to use the cute little house image that will be coming soon along with some other cute images from the same line. Here is the card that I made..make sure to visit Pink Papery's blog and see all the ADORABLE cards that the design team created!

Ahhh Just Sit & Relax!

I'm taking a break from cleaning to come and post. I made this card last night and used a sketch that was posted here on Madelynn's Twinkling Tuesday blog. Her little brother actually drew up this sketch this week for all of us to use! Isn't it just too cute!!! I even added some little piercings to the corners just for him..since he loves that tool! I used one of the digital images from Just between us Girls that Pink Papery Studio will be releasing SOON!. I just LOVE paper piecing I think I'm gonna be addicted to it for a while haha!

Pink Papery Studios - Challenge

Today all of Pink Papery design team was busy making their cards for today's challenge. Amy had asked me to create a sketch and on top of that we were to use hot pink, turquoise and black colors on our cards. Those 3 new colors are going to be the newest colors of shimmer it's!!! I can't wait.

Here is the sketch that I made for all the design team to use. And to follow is the card that I made for the challenge. I used a digital image that Pink Papery Studio will be selling in the online store soon. It's from the stamp line called Simply Sistas. I had so much creating the first card that I had to make another...I did my first every paper piecing on this card and I love it! I don't know why it took me so long to try it out. I'm glad I finally did!

Don't forget to check out the rest of the cards that the design team made! The links are on my side bar.

My little Sketch Book!

I haven't had time to work on any cards today..been busy cleaning making lunch and spending time with my other half. I did alter this little sketch book the other day and hadn't posted it here to share with you all. I used one of the Digital images that Pink Papery Studios will be releasing along with a lot of other super cute images to purchase tomorrow! So don't forget to check out the store!

Pink Papery Previews!

Pink Papery Studio's is having another digital stamp release this Saturday, March 7th. Trish and I were busy all day in the stamp room creating cards like we were machines haha! not really! but, we did make about 4-6 cards each. Trish's cards came out SO ADORABLE but I will post her's later on because for now we gotta focus here on Pink Papery haha! and the new images! So, here are a few more previews to get you excited for Saturday. For the last 2 days I've had a blast using these new images from between us girls line I did add shimmer it to all of the cards here..I wish you could see them in real life they are so pretty! I think pretty soon my whole room is going to be shimmered..I'm seriously addicted to this stuff and I think Trish is now too. haha!

Busy Card Making Day!!!

WOWZERS! I have been busy all day long making cards for Pink Papery Studio's release this weekend. All of the images used are digital and will be released this Saturday, March 7. You can visit to the Pink Papery store to purchase them!

The first card was for Pink Papery's Wednesday challenge. We had to use the new charm bracelet along with shimmer it paints and WOW this was the first time I ever played with my shimmer it's and they are SO pretty! If you love to add sparkle to your cards then you need some of this yummie stuff! Pink Papery carries a few different colors in the store so go take a look! I was so shimmer happy that I used it on ALL my cards that I made today! It's just lovely!

The bride card that I did was inspired by a sketch challenge that little Madelynn's drew up and is posted here on her very own blog Twinkling Tuesdays .

It's really hard to see in the pictures and all the sparkle but on the bride card I took a close up so if you click on it I'm hoping you can see the sparkle that I added to the veil and dress.

This next card was inspired by Mojo Monday sketch #76 I know that I'll be making more cards with this sketch..I love it!

Last but not least..this card was inspired by a sketch posted by Card Patterns you can find the sketch here sketch #4

Pink Papery Studios - NEW Release!!!

Today's the big day...Pink Papery Studios is releasing some NEW St. Patty's Day digital images from the Between us Girls line up for sale! They will be available for purchase this evening so be sure you go grab yours and start making lots of cute cards to share with us and to share with others you give your cards to.

I made a few cards for today's release so you can see just how cute and fun these images are!

The second card that is posted here was inspired by a sketch challenge that Mojo Monday posted here on week #75

The 2 cards below was inspired from a Sketch challenge from Sketch patterns blog here I know it's a little late but I thought it was a fun sketch so I thought I'd try it.

Pink Papery Studios - Challenge - *NEW St. Patty's Day Images!

This weeks challenge for Pink Papery was to make a shaker card so instead of searching for a shaker card instructions I thought I knew what I was doing...well it was harder than I thought it would be and VERY challenging to me haha! But I did it all alone and it came out ok...I feel it's plan and I will probably add to it later. I filled up the shaker with glitter, beads and chunky glitter. I made the saying with photo shop to add to the card.

I used the new digital image from Pink Papery that will be released to sell in the store this Sat. February 28th. I think she is so cute!!!

There are more images along with some sayings to go with her that were sent to us today so I will have more previews from the set before Sat. posted here on my blog...so be sure to come back for more to see and remember to visit all of the design teams blogs for even MORE!

Trish's SU class!

This last Sat. Trish had a class at her house...it was so much fun! We made a Stationary box with cards! This is the one that I made the week before the class for one of the samples to use. In the next few days I will finish the one that I did at the actual class. I still need a couple more cards to make.

I used the Simply Scrappin Collection called Love Sparkles from the current Stampin Up Catalog.

Challenges, Challenges & More Challenges

Yes, I'm alive haha! I haven't posted in a few days because after my little 3 day trip to Colorado I just couldn't get back in the swing of things. I think my brain might have been frozen from all the snow haha! My family & I did have lots of fun so it was all worth the freeze!

Since I was gone last week I missed posting my challenge for Pink Papery. Here is the journal I altered for last weeks challenge. We were to use pink bling, a stamp/digital image from Whimsy Studios and we get brownie points for altering a journal/notebook. I used a journal notebook that Amy sent me and the digital image from Whimsy-Studios called Angel food cake. I also used the chunky glitter on the wings that Amy sent me so, that counts as my bling. I LOVE cupcakes so thought this would be kind of cute to write all my cupcake recipes in.

The card that I made for today's challenge..was a CHALLENGE for sure! We were to use an image/stamp from between us girls or doodle girls and make the card masculine. I figured I'd make a spa card for my hubby as a little joke letting him know how I feel while getting a pedicure! haha! I used the digital image from Between us Girls called Simply Spa...this is another set that I love from this line.

I also used the sketch from Mojo Monday - week #74 on today's card. I just LOVED this sketch you can find it here on this link...http://mojomonday.blogspot.com/2009/02/mojo-monday-week-74.html

I Love You!

On top of cleaning today I actually had some free time to stamp YAY! This Sunday is mine and my hunny's 13th year anniversary so, I made him a card with the new Lily & Billy stamp set from Pink Cat Studio.

I also made this for my parents for Valentine's day! Last week for super bowl I made a pineapple cake and so I saved the can from the pineapple washed it out and altered it and filled it with yummy choc. candies.

What a WONDERFUL day I had!

I had soooo much fun today! I was invited to my FIRST ever tea party!!! I have wanted to do this for so long already and I was talking to one of my friends Christine one day and I don't remember what brought it up. She told me her and her stamping/neirbor/friends get together every so ofter for tea parties and I just thought that was SO cool! So she said that the next time they have one they will invite me and they did!!! Anne Marie had the tea party at her house. She had dropped off the most adorable invite here at my house last week. I took a picture to share it...isn't it so pretty???So we walked into Anne Marie's home and WOW the table was set up so beautiful. Cute little tea cups and yummy choc. dipped cherries, scones with lemon and some other kind of spread and chicken salad sandwiches and more sweets and more sweets! I couldn't believe my eyeballs!!! haha! (she's probably laughing at me reading this because I can't remember what kind of spread it was that she used but YUM! that's all I gotta say to it all! I'm so mad at myself that I took my camera and didn't take pictures it would have been so much fun scrapping my very first tea party! I so enjoyed it all so very much and the best of all was the company...Anne Marie, Tierza , Stephanie & Christine are all such wonderful ladies and I'm so BLESSED to have them all in my life! Thank you Anne Marie for ALL of that it was so awesome!

So as soon as I got home guess what I did? I got online searching for my own tea set hahahaha! I so want to have a tea party! It's so much fun!!!
