Over the weekend...

I made a few projects. Well, more than a few actually! I have been getting things planned for my clubs and classes, as well as taking care of a rather large project for my husband's birthday! He is turning 30 this year, so I am doing something really special for him. I would give details, but I never know when he is snooping around my blog! ;)

On Mondays, I usually start off my week with the Mojo Monday Challenge. However, I think I need to sit on the sketch for awhile. I am trying to figure out which direction I want to go with it. But never fear, I have a project from the weekend all set to show! Lately, I have been playing around with clear stamps, and I have to say I like them! The image in this stamp needed to be colored, so I pulled out my Stampin' Up Blending Pens and stamp pads and this is what I came up with...





Gotta love that sparkle!


If you would like the details on any of these cards, please let me know! Have a great day! :)

Baby Announcement

Hello! My project for the day is this cute baby announcement that I made for one of my neighbors. I had kind of a hard time with this one, becuase I wasn't sure which direction to go in. I ended up getting inspiration from another baby card I did for last week's Mojo Monday challenge. I used the Cuddles and Tickles set (retired). I also wrapped mini Hershey bars in some paper I have had for a number of years. I find that I buy lots of paper, and that I like it so much, no project is good enough for it. I am trying to change that..lol Hope you like it!

I colored the baby using my Stampin' Up! Stampin' Pastels. It was the first time I have used them. I like the soft colors. I also used my trusty Cricut to make the tag.





Stamps: Cuddles and Tickles, So Very
Paper: Whisper White, Gable Green, (I can't recall where the pink paper is from)
Ink: Basic Black(SU!), Baby Pink (stampcraft)

Lots of LadyBugs!

A few weeks ago, my wonderful husband bought me my dream car! That car is a VW Beetle, or as my kids call it, 'The LadyBug'. Since then, I have developed a bit of an obsession with them. I have been making them almost non-stop...lol. I put together a few small projects in honor of 'The LadyBug', I hope you enjoy!

I love it!









I would once again like to thank the creative ladies over on Splitcoast for the inspiration, as well as Angie at Chic n Scratch. I watched her video on making the bugs about 100 times! :)
