Snappy Stampin' w/ Arielle

"For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, saith the Lord. For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts. For as the rain cometh down, and the snow from heaven, and returneth not thither, but watereth the earth, and maketh it bring forth and bud, that it may give seed to the sower, and bread to the eater: So shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth: it shall not return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it." ~ Isaiah 55: 8-11

BUTTERFLY HAPPINESS / 2S4Y's Kazan Sketch #17...

Well, this card is based on a past sketch by Kazan over at 2 Sketches 4 You, that I thought looked interesting.

I used faux silk & faux stitching on this card.

Bye for now!

ITTY BITTY BUDS / Mojo #69 & SJCI #20...

I've been dying to do another one of Stacey's Jewelry Color Inspirations, as well as Julee's Mojo Sketches, and I'm so excited that I got the chance! I think these two challenges go together like crunchy peanut butter & grape jelly!

I used a new level 2 hostess set, Itty Bitty Buds from Stampin' Up!'s new catty, coming out tomorrow! Yay!

Have a great Monday!

LOVE YOU MUCH...KWerner #38 & 2S4Y#17

Okay~ exactly how long does teething last? Believe it or not, this is the first thing I've stamped since the first of January! And I did it in 1o minutes, anticipating Alex waking up before I could finish...

Yes it's very basic, but I'm just thrilled to have stamped SOMETHING!

This card is loosely based on Laura's Sketch #17, using the KWerner Color Inspiration #38.

Nighty night,

SWEETEST DAY EVER.../ SJCI#17 & 2S4Y#16...

The colors for this week over at Stacey's Jewelry Color Inspiration #17 are from the new Stampin' Up! Designer Series paper Candy Lane ~ I LOVE IT!!! It's also part of the Love You Much Bundle that's 20% off! When I saw Laura's Sketch Challenge #16, I knew I had to pair the color challenge with it!
The stamps I used are also Stampin' Up! - Crazy for Cupcakes... again a perfect match!

Hard to see is the Martha Stewart glitter I put on the cupcakes... I bought it 1/2 off after Christmas - SCORE! It was really hard not to buy several packs of it, even though it will take me years to use the one pack!

Anybody else out there hoard craft supplies as much as I do?
Bye for now!

A WISH... for a Happy New Year!

Here is a glittery, loving wish that we all achieve our goals this new year... whether it's to be more caring, showing love to all those around us, or to lose weight (oops... that's mine AGAIN this year!), or any other great goals we've set for ourselves! I wish all of us GOOD LUCK!

Happy New Year!
