3-in-1 and a SU! CASE

Welcome back! The rain has started and we now have *puddles!* Yay! We so desperately need the moisture - I'm not really looking forward to the winter storm warning we are in, but I guess the snow will help with moisture too right?!

My next card came from my May issue of Stampin' Success - a magazine for us Demos. They were showcasing the new colors and I came across a card that they had in there and I wanted to CASE it with Arielle's color combo over at the ColourQ Challenge Blog. A Spoon Full of Sugar wants us to make something that has been 3D on our creations - I used pop up's for some of the circles and over at Our Creative Corner, they are wanting Blossoms on our cards/scrapbook pages - I have 2 daisies on mine. I really like how it turned out - I hope you do too!


Stamps: Circle Circus, Wow Flowers; Paper: Cameo Coral, Whisper White, Sage Shadow, Always Artichoke (I put more AA on the inside too), Bravo Burgundy; Ink: Bravo Burgundy; Accessories: various circle punches, sizzix daisies die, white brads, dimensionals, glue pen

I hope you are enjoying your day :) Stop by later for more!

Genuine Boy Card

The kids just finished their lunch break and I took the chance to get another card put on my blog while they were eating! I slowly worked on this card while they were doing school work and needed my help...I would cut a few pieces, color a bit, then go help one of them...come back and keep going hee hee...one way to get the cards done right?!?

This time I ventured over to Taylored Expressions to see what goodies were waiting there for me and lo and behold there was a cool sketch there. I saw "boy" when I saw the sketch and I remembered that over at ColorQ, Arielle had some "boy colors" happenin' :o) Yay!! My only hard part, was finding some boy stamps that SU! has...I don't know about all you out there, but I really struggle in that department when it comes to SU...in my opinion, they don't offer a lot of stamps for the male gender. Thank goodness I keep some oldies kickin around for times like these!!!


When I saw the colors from Arielle, I instantly thought of these papers I have had forevah and decided to get them out and use some of it up. It's from My Mind's Eye. I don't have a lot of Tempting Turquoise DP that is boyish, so this was what I had to work with!! Close enough in my books....:)

Stamps: Bronc Buster; Paper: Soft Suede, Night of Navy, Tangerine Tango, Whisper White, My Mind's Eye DP; Ink: Versafine Black; Accessories: clear EP, markers, pewter brads, pewter pearls, dimensionals, paper piercer.
I also got some chocolate chip cookies made before lunch, so now I'm off to start the banana bread! I'm trying to get my snacks and breads caught up for the weekend so I can CRAFT the weekend away!!! :) TTYL....
