Spring Card


I am so ready for Spring! We got several more inches of snow on Thursday and freezing rain last night with more winter weather on its way. I received my spring kit from Magnolia Stamps in the mail on Thursday and the timing couldn't have been better. Just in time to boost me out of the winter blahs!! This is the first card I made with my new stamps. I put two together to create this cute card. I don't know the names yet of these two stamps but the background is the wheelbarrel with the tulips and then Tilda with the bunny.
I entered this card into the following chalenges:
One Stop Craft Challenge: Spring Flowers
Do You Stack Up: Anything Goes
Stamp Something: Something with flowers

Sassy Studio Designs Challenge Shape Up


It's time for another Dare To Be Sassy Thursday challenge. This week our theme is "Shape Up" You can create any type of card that you want as long as it is not a square or rectangle. I really had fun with this card. I started with a circle card and then layered the peace sign from the Groovy Times Cricut cartridge on top. The digi image is Hippie Chick from the January release at Sassy Studio Designs. All of the peace sign layers came from one piece of pattern paper. The paper was color blocked and worked perfectly for this project. We would love for you to join us in this challenge. Simple create a shape card and link it up HERE for your chance to win.

Digi Doodle Shop's Best Challenge #48 Spots and Stripes


I love spots and stripes so the current challenge at Digi Doodle Shop's Best was a lot of fun for me. The image I chose for my DT card is Guard Dog and you can find it in the Digi Doodle Shop. This dog just makes me smile. We have 3 guard dogs at our house. Two of them are strays that found us and one we adopted from the shelter. They are all the biggest babies but they do let us know when strangers are around.
We would love for you to join us in this challenge. All you need to do is create a project using spots and stripes and link it up to the Digi Doodle Shop's Best challenge blog for your chance to win a gift certificate to the Digi Doodle Shop

Cruisin

Yesterday was my oldest son's 17th birthday! Where did all those years go? It seems like just yesterday we brought him home from the hospital. He has grown into quite the young man. He couldn't name even one thing he wanted for his birthday that was materialistic. He told me what he wanted was world peace. I told him I would get right on that! Anyway, this is the card that I made for him.
