Blog Hop Challege


Here's a card I made. It's super simple but elegant. Perfect for a wedding or shower! It goes along with the Blog Hop Challenge over at Make it Monday for Papertrey Ink! I used Stampin' Up's paper, ink and impression plate. The two birdies are a stamp from Papertrey Ink. The lace and pearl ribbon is just some left overs I had laying around! Hope you like it!

Christmas Card Challenge


This is the last card I'll post for today. This one was too fun to make! I used a lot of Stampin' Up products with this but all of the paper is from Papertrey Ink! I'm going to enter into the Make it Monday Challenge over at Papertrey Ink's blog. I think I'll also enter this into the Dynamic Duo Challenge since it fits the color scheme! :)

I put glitter around the mistletoe to fit the Make it Monday challenge! Hope you like it! :)

Merry and Bright

Here's another card! It's for the challenge over at Retrosketches Blog. Here's the sketch we had to follow.  I will also be using this card for a Make it Monday challenge over at Papertrey Ink's Blog. It was to use a little detail of glitter. I used the glitter over the antlers. Love!

I used all Papertrey Ink paper. The background stamps [excluding the polka dots] are from Papertrey as well. Of course the ink I used is from Stampin' Up. I just love all of their colors. I just ordered the rest of the ink sets so I'll have all the inks by tomorrow! Yay! :) Hope you enjoy the final product!

Happy Birthday Flower Card

Today, I wanted to join retro sketches challenge. Here's the sketch I needed to follow! I really liked the layout so I was pretty excited to make this card :)

I just received another Papertrey Ink package in the mail the other day. So I decided to use my new stamp set, Delightful Dahlia Stamp Set. So fun! For the background stamp, I used their Sheet Music Stamp Set. I used Stampin' Up's Calypso Coral's ink and paper. For the green I used Stampin' Up's Lucky Limeade ink and paper as well. For the tulle, I use what I had lying around from Joann's. On the inside, I stamped a simple Happy Birthday. So here it is. I hope you love it as much as I do :)

So I LOVE this card, and I'm entering it into the Simon Says Stamp and Show challenge this week. It was an anything goes so I had to use this one! ;)

Joy

So I decided to join another challenge this week. This time it's over at The Play Date Cafe
This week's challenge was to use the colors black, white and maroon. I didn't have maroon so I went with plain ole red and here's how it turned out. :) I used Stampin' Up's ornament cutouts and Papertrey Ink's Christmas Signature Sentiments. Everything else was older supplies I had laying around.

We Wish You a Merry Christmas

Here's another Make it Monday Challenge. The challenge was to use layered vellum. I used Papertrey Ink's Snowflake Medley Die Cut Set. I then took it's coordinating snowflake stamp and stamped it with VersaMark from Stampin' Up. I used some glitter I had lying around to put on top of the clear ink. As I let those dry, I made the base of my card. I used some old Christmas paper I had and placed a piece of vellum over top to soften it up a bit. I placed it all together using some glue. I then stamped a sentiment with Papertrey Ink's Signature Christmas Stamp. I used some of Stampin' Up's ink to stamp the sentiment. Love how it turned out :)

Just a Little Christmas Note

Here's another one I did for the faux pocket challenge. I loved how this one turned out as well. These are the colors found around my home at Christmas. It definitely got me in the Holiday spirit! I used Signature Christmas StampsTwinkle Stamp Set, and just some regular old paper. I also embellished it with some fun ribbon trim I had lying around the house!! I'm so glad I got into card making. I love it!!
