HOORAY / DS #190

Ahhh, with this post I am finally caught up! Here is my card for this week's Deconstructed Sketch! I used the RSVP Collection from BasicGrey for this fun birthday card! I love this chipboard cake and the coordinating washi strips.

The other Deconstructed ladies' have some GORGEOUS samples, as well - so be sure to go check them out!

HEY BEAUTIFUL / CQC #281...

Hello again! For this week's colourQ, I used a super fun set from Studio Calico, called Diamond. I decided to stamp the image a little sloppy - well, as sloppy as my OCD tendencies would allow! I loved these happy spring~y colors, they managed to chase away the winter gloom a teeny bit!

   

XOXOX!

HI / RS #154...

I'm back with my card for this week's RetroSketch - fun, yeah?!? Everything is BasicGrey - I so totally love their fun Veneer Words! The papers are from the Spice Market collection. The bling is some retired BG from my stash - I wish they still made them, they were so awesome!

HUGS!

KITTY / ADFD New Release...

Hello!!! I am super duper behind this week, so many things going on! SO let me get to it - this card is for last Friday's (yes - I know - I am horribly ashamed it took this long...) new A Day For Daisies release of Cat Fish - aren't they adorable?!? I used Cat Fish Kitty... so sweet!

Back in a bit!

BETTER IN FLIP FLOPS / DS #189...

Well, hello there! How are you today?!? Bit of a busy week here, lots going on.... can you tell that I can't wait for summer??? I'm sorry if you're buried under snow, we don't have that here, but it IS freezing here! Keep the faith, the sun WILL have to come out eventually! I used Papertrey Ink's gorgeous set, Flipping Out. I thought it went perfectly with this fun paper!

The other Deconstructed ladies' have some beautiful inspiration for you today, as well - so be sure to go check them out!

WISH BIG / RS #153...

Hello! I'm back with this week's RetroSketch - how fun is this?!? I made this card last week for my MIL's birthday. I knew I wanted to use the candles in place of the three spots in the sketch, and these were the only matching candles I had, so I had to find papers to match - are these awesome? Actually my pic doesn't do justice, they match much better in real life - LOL! The sentiment is from paper Smooches, Birthday Sampler.

Have a great weekend!

ELEPHANT IN LOVE / CQC #279, DS #188 & ADFD #115...

HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY! I know - it's been a while, so many things going on at the kids schools, and my computer has been threatening to overheat for days - but I did get that straightened out, finally! So my sincere apologies for all tardiness...

My card today is for this week's colourQ, the Add some Glitter Challenge #115 at A Day For Daisies and also for this week's Deconstructed Sketch! I went clean and simple, using this adorable image from ADFD - Elephant in Love - which happens to be on sale for $2 this week!

The other Deconstructed ladies' have some beautiful inspiration for you, too - so be sure to go check them out!

LOVE YOU TONS / ADFD February Club Kit...

Yay - it's Friday!!! AND, we're showing off the new A Day For Daisies' February Club Kit!!! (okay - I realize it's almost Saturday now, but it wasn't when I started this post - LOL!) All the team members made fantastic cards, be sure to go check them out in the ADFD blog!

I love this new Club Kit - these sweet little elephants are so so fun! I used the image Elephant Raining Love and did some digital paper piecing using parts of the image. The kit is Teen Love by Lynne-Marie.

   

Have a great night!

LOVE IS THE THREAD / DS #187...

Happy Thursday! I have a little card using the newest sketch from The Deconstructed Sketch! I loved the circle focal point of this sketch! I remembered this set, Stitched With Love, from the now closed stamp company There She Goes. I thought it would be perfect!

The other ladies' have some gorgeous inspiration for you, so be sure to go check them out!

HUGS & KISSES / CQC #278...

Hello and happy happy Wednesday! I'm off to keep nursery for a local church's ESL ministry - those little kiddies are so adorable! But before I leave, here's my card for this week's colourQ - I totally love these colors! I pulled out this set from Technique Tuesday, With All My Heart, and decided to get a bit little grungy! And blingy - LOL! I misted a little water onto the sentiment before I stamped it.

Have an awesome day!

LOVE / RS #151...

Hello! I am dreadfully late posting this, although I have a 2 "under-the-weather" reasons.... yes my babies made a recovery and then had a re-lapse... Maisie is still home with me today and Alex is back in class. Today we've cut out paper hearts, eaten pickles out of the jar, did a little watercolor painting and are now settling into a riveting movie - Ramona and Beezus.

I made this card on Saturday for the newest RetroSketch challenge - you should totally see the other ladies' gorgeous creations and come play with us!!!

See you later, alligator!
