Crafty Contagion

Hey All!  There's a new challenge going on over at the Crafty Contagion...Masculine cards!  Make sure to pop on over and play along!

Happy Birthday!

This card was super quick to make.  The sentiment and corner rounding punch are by Stampin' Up! and the paper is Pages of Honor by SignifyPink.  I cut up a bunch of 1 inch squares and rounded one side of each.  Pretty simple and still masculine!

Thanks for stopping by!

Seeing Green!

Hey All!

The Crafty Contagion is holding another challenge and today's is the color green!  Make sure to stop by and play along with the rest of the Divas!

I Love You

I'm still using my Hero Arts Year Round Sentiments for a lot of my cards lately.  I stamped three hearts and then fussy cut them and popped them with dimensionals.  I then added some bakers twine followed by stamping the sentiment.  I'm loving the CAS phase that I'm stuck in these days!

Thanks for stopping by!

12 Days of Christmas

Hey All!

There's a special treat for you on the Crafty Contagion Blog..The 12 Days of Christmas by the Divas!  Hop on over to view some very inspirational cards!

4 Calling Birds

My card is pretty clean and crisp.  I stamped the tree, birds, and snowflakes and then embossed them with clear embossing powder.  I used some Tim Holts distressed inks to help create the background.  I cut the snow piles from some scraps and ran them through my CuttleBug.  I used some silver cording I had leftover in my stash for a little accent.

Enjoy your weekend!!

Crafty Contagion Left Overs!

Hey all! Long time no blog.  We are finally all moved in and unpacked in our new home! YAY!  I'm not missing the Washington weather but my Divas are another story!  I miss being able to get together with friends and spend the day crafting but thankfully I have the Crafty Contagion to get my fix!  This weeks challenge at the Crafty Contagion is Leftovers!  Use up those scraps that you and I both know you have laying around!

Merry Christmas

I guess I should be honest and tell you this is my first personal Christmas card I've made this year.  I'm a little behind in getting started but at least it's still November! I used up some old SU! DSP and card stock and some yummy twine.  Every other one inch square is popped up with dimensionals.  I hope you all had a fabulous Thanksgiving!  Happy crafting!

Crafty Contagion Pumpkin Challenge!

Hey All!  This sweet card share today was made for the new challenge over on the Crafty Contagion, Pumpkin!

I Miss You

I had a really challenging time making this card...HONEST!  We are in the middle of a cross country move and all I have on hand is a tiny pack of paper, some images, letter stickers, brads and a little ribbon and flowers.  We are talking less than a yard of ribbon and 24 sheets of 6x6 paper.  Oh and scissors...no paper trimmer!!  I'm sure there will be some triage to this card when we reach Arizona since I fully believe our troops deserve straight crisp cuts!

Have an awesome weekend and make sure to go play along at Crafty Contagion!!

Crafty Contagion Twine Challenge!

Hey all! There's a new challenge blog up and totally fun!  Crafty Contagion is a fun new blog started by my favorite group of monthly Stamping Together Divas!  The first challenge to kick off the blog is to use Twine! Soo easy!  Hope you all can play along!

tis the season

Have you ever had a card fully planned out in your head but couldn't get it to come to life?  Insert this card there!  I had something completely different in mind for this card.  It has grown on me though and now I like it but I was so disappointed when I first made it.  I used SU card stocks, embossing folder and brads to make this card.  I used my Copics to make a few of the snowflakes pop and Tonic punches for the deer.  The twine is from our crazy Stamping Together Divas order.  I don't think I'll ever buy twine again!
