Sweetest Christmas ever


Hi everyone!
The challenge over at Christmas Card challenges blog is Anything goes so I thought it was the perfect time to ink up these adorable gingerbread man/woman stamps from Clearly Whimsy.  I was inspired by this card by Laura Bassen.  I love how Laura used the tiny dots stencil with embossing paste behind the square window.  I did the same thing behind my heart window.  I am excited to have one more card to add to my growing collection of Christmas cards for 2015.  Thank you for the inspiration, Laura.


Thank you for visiting and have a great day!

Papertrey Ink Blog Hop

Happy Sunday everyone!  
I am popping in real quick with a card for Papertrey Ink's January Blog hop. 
 The challenge this month was hearts.


I had these hearts cut out for another project that never came to be.  They were sitting on my desk and I knew I had to make a card for the challenge.  The die is the heart border die from PTI and the sentiment from the set Big Hugs!  LOVE this stamp set and I can't wait for the dies to be back in stock so I can get those too.

I used the sketch from The Challenge #23.


I am also entering this at CASology:  Friend


Thank you for visiting and have a great day!

Stamps:  Big Hugs (PTI)

showCASe your style challenge #7

Hi everyone!
Clearly Whimsy Stamps has a new challenge blog called showCASe your style.


Have you checked it out yet?  You do NOT have to use Whimsy Stamps products to play along but if you do, the gift certificate will be more if you are the winner!

The challenge runs 2 weeks and this time it's an inspiration challenge!
Here is how I was inspired.


I used the new set Up Up and Away, Up Up and Away Sentiments and the new Stitched Clouds die set.  I stamped the hot air balloon using my Kaleidacolor ink pad.  Fussy cut it and then popped it up with foam tape.  I love the swirls on the cloud dies.





We'd love to see your card inspired by the graphic!
Thank you for visiting and have a great day!

Stamps:  Up Up and Away, Up Up and Away Sentiments (Clearly Whimsy)
Ink:  Versafine Black, Caribbean Sea (Kaleidacolor)

I miss you


Happy Friday friends.  Today's card was inspired by Muse Challenge #101.  Marion has a great card for us to be inspired by.  Here it is...


I used the same design as Marion's card just changed the orientation.  The color inspired me as well as the heart on Marion's card.  I used the new Super Heart Border by Simon Says Stamp!  I was lucky enough to win this and this is my first time using it.  The sentiment is heat embossed and is from a Hero Arts stamp set.  I added a few rhinestones to finish it off.

I am also entering this at Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge: Have a Heart.  I was thinking of our troops when I made this card.

Thank you for visiting and have a great day!

Paper:  Tempting Turquoise (SU)
Accessories:  Rhinestones, Super Heart Border (SSS)
