Coffee Kiki - Cute Card Thursday Challenge

I love my new Coffee Kiki Stamp from C.C. Designs. The following card was created for the following Challenge:

Cute Card Thursday Challenge 248 - Eat, Drink & Be Merry

I used patterned paper scraps from my overwhelming scrap drawer that I transported in a box to my parents' home for the holidays. My cuttlebug should arrive along with my husband later in the day...I am hoping to work through the box more quickly after that.

Thanks for stopping by!

All That Scraps Challenge

Merry Christmas! Hope everyone is having a wonderful holiday with loved ones, be it family or friends. The following card was created for the All That Scraps Anything Goes Challenge. I used the adorable Trevor Cocoa stamp from C.C. Designs. I am trying to work through my large pile of paper scraps and that was the inspiration for the rest of the card. Hope you like it. Thanks for stopping by.

Hot Cocoa for the Holidays

I am back with another Christmas card inspired by a few challenges.

Wow the difference lighting makes! The first picture below was taking during the day in natural light. The second picture at night in parents dining room.

Pals Paper Arts Sketch Challenge - PPA149

Merry Christmas! I was inspired by this week's sketch challenge PPA149 over at the Pals Paper Arts Blog. I am at my parents' house for the holidays and brought limited supplies, but I am happy with how the card turned out. The stamp is from MFT and I used paper scraps from the Recollections Festivus 12x12 paper stack. The wavy black circle behind the stamped image was cut free hand. I hope you like it. Thanks for stopping by!

TGF Latte Anya Cards

I love my new Latte Anya stamp from The Greeting Farm. I made two cards using Recollections stacks from Michael's (Jolly Holiday and Frosty Cabin). Let me know what you think! Thanks for stopping by.

Here is a video I made to share the cards.

MFT Wednesday Stamp Club (MFTWSC58)

With Valentine's Day just a few days away, I am drawn to all the pink and red goodness in the Martha Stewart Valentine's Mat Stack. They were perfect for the card I created for this weeks MFT Wednesday Stamp Club #58 Challenge (MFTWSC58).  

Did I mention I love these papers? I had to make a second card.

Thanks for stopping by. Please leave a comment and let me know what you think!

MFT Have Hope Using Echo Park Holly Jolly Christmas - Non Holiday Card

As you can already tell from my other blog posts, I cannot get enough of my new MFT stamps. I wanted to show how versatile my Echo Park Holly Jolly Christmas kit is and created a card using papers from this collection. Lots of fun bright patterns in this kit!

MFT Have Hope - Sketch Challenge

Another card using the adorable Have Hope stamp set from My Favorite Things. I used the Wednesday Sketch for this one. I can't get enough of her! I am planning to make a similar version for the Hope You Can Cling To Card Drive over at Split Coast Stampers.

Have Hope

More MFT goodness. I made the following card using the MFT Pure Innocence Have Hope stamp set. She is so adorable. The patterned papers are from the DCWV Mademoiselle paper stack.

Fall is in the air!

I cannot get enough of this stamp from MFT and I love pairing her with the My Minds Eye Stella Rose Mabel papers. It has started to cool down here in Minnesota and the leaves are dropping like crazy.

Paper Pals Arts Challenge - PPA115

I created the following card for the Paper Pals Arts Challenge to create a fall themed card - Thanksgiving, autumn, harvest or Halloween. I used this MFT stamp for the first time and I am IN LOVE. I also finally cut into one of My Mind's Eye 6x6 paper pads (Stella Rose - Mabel) that I had been hoarding. Love this paper. I also tried my hand at paper piecing for the firs time on her little turtle neck. This stamp is perfect for that.

MFT Wednesday Sketch Challenge #40

Another Halloween card made using Crafty Secrets and Authentique. I followed the MFT Sketch below. I really love using sketches for inspiration. I wish I had added a little twine to the button to make it pop.
