HE WILL BRING YOU THROUGH IT / DD #45, FMS #79 and CCC #37...

Good morning! I have a little card here using 3 challenges and 3 stamps sets from The Alley Way Stamps! The border and flowers are from Petal Pushers and Pillow Talk - the sentiment is from the new set that was "peeked" today - Life is Short. This sentiment set has some really wonderful quotes!

   

I played along with several challenges with this card;  Dynamic Duos, Freshly Made Sketches and CASology... Woohoo ~ I am SMOKIN'!!!

BIRTHDAY WISHES / CQC #182 & STB #11...

Hello! Today's card is based on the newest colourQ  - I love these colors! I also used a sketch that I missed using earlier in the week from Seize the Birthday... sweet and simple!

The candle image is from the newest set, Tag-Alongs from The Alley Way Stamps... there is still time to go try to win it! The sentiment is from Bite Size. I added some stickles to the flames, but you can't see them very well.

          

Have a great night!

FOR YOU / 10MCD #14 & TAWS Sneak Peek...

WOOHOO - it's time for sneak peeks of the new April sets for The Alley Way Stamps. This new set is called Tag-Alongs, and if you head over to the TAWS blog today and comment, you could win one for yourself! The tag stamp is a little longer than a certain tag punch sold by a major stamp manufacturer... so that's cool! I just inserted my paper in the punch on one side, then after stamping, trimmed the end.

I played along with the 10 Minute Craft Dash, who could resist these colors?!? I did go lighter with my pink... but I didn't do too bad with the time!

Thanks so much for stopping by!

WE CLICK / RS #65...

Well, hello there! Having a good weekend? This is for today's new RetroSketch... it's a great one! I used one of my FAVE sets from The Alley Way Stamps, Framed.... and the "flash" is from Ka~Pow! I covered it in diamond Stickles.

       

I think the Framed set is one of my favorites because I have always loved cameras. I had lots of cameras growing up, I remember I had one of those funky disc cameras in 4th grade... I loved it.

In high school I had a Polaroid. I loved that one, too! In college I started collecting really old cameras and retrofitted a few of them to take modern film. I studied black and white fine art photography, but now with an automatic digital SLR - I feel like I have forgotten everything and just gotten lazy - LOL! I use my poor quality cell phone camera the most these days! What do you use?

Big hugs,

RELAXING ANGEL / ADFD New Release & Challenge #66...

Here's my last project for today... a card using a new image from today's release of Light as a Cloud from A Day For Daisies! These little angels are so adorable, I used Relaxing Angel. I had these scallops left over from a card last week & thought they would be perfect! We also started a new challenge at ADFD, with a freebie, to use a white embossed background.

Be sure to head over to the blog and check out the other ladies' inspiration, grab the freebie and join the fun!

Nighty night...
