Well hello, It seem like forever that I’ve had the opportunity to sit and just play.. I decided to play in a few challenges this weekend. I love Claire’s sketch over at Paper Players this week it’s perfect for the theme at Festive Friday’s challenge Easter or Flowers. I’m trying to use my supplies, perfect opportunity to use the Simon Says Stamp Easter Card Kit. The cross image in Easter Wishes stamp set is very compelling to me.
I stamped the image with Memento Tuxedo Black ink onto Neenah Solar White card and colored with various Copic Markers. I had tons of fun putting this card together. Hope you like my take on the challenges.
Thanks so much for stopping by! Please leave a comment and come back later in the week to see how much fun I had this weekend!

Hello, Happy Wednesday my crafty friends… I’m back today with a fun design for The Merry Christmas challenge… this weeks theme is Always Anything Christmas Goes with the option of Ugly Sweater.
I pulled out the SSS Ugly Sweater stamp set and stamped onto Neenah Solar White card with a copic friendly ink. I die cute the art panel and patterned paper from the Penny Black Antique Frame dies.
To finish my card I adhered the panels onto an A2 Top Fold Neenah Card Base.

Hello, Happy Monday! It’s time for another challenge over at Merry Monday! This weeks challenge is brought to you by Linda. She has challenged us to create a Christmas card using the inspiration photo below.
My design this week I used dies and patterned paper so this one was easy to create. I went for a vintage look on this design. I die cut the main panel with the Tim Holtz Stacked Deckle Thinlits out of Bazzill Taffy cardstock. The Memory Box Shinning Candles was die cut out of “Stampin’ Up Gold Foil, Garden Green cardstock, Bazzill Red Hots. I blended Vintage Photo Distress ink around the edges.

Happy Friday, friends! I’m glad you’ve stopped by today! I’m super excited to be sharing my first post as part of the CutCardStock Design Team. I typically don’t make many Sympathy Cards. I have a friend who recently lost her mother. I wanted to create a unique card for her.
For my design this week I used Curious Metallic Cardstock in Curious Metallic Cryogen White and Violette. I stamped the Penny Black Flower Cascade stamp with a Copic friendly ink onto the Curious Metallic Cryogen White card, colored with various Copic Markers.
Copic coloring on the Curious Metallic card is like magic it makes the blending process so smooth and to top it off the cardstock has shimmer.
To finish my card, I stamped the sentiment unto the flower panel and added a few watercolor splatters to accent the design.
Thanks so much for stopping by! Just a reminder the Curious Metallic Cardstock is on sale this month. Don’t forget to check out our Facebook page for weekly specials.
Have a great weekend!
