Did ya miss me.......

I know it's been awhile since my last post but you know how it is, life seems to get in the way sometimes. I have been scrapping though. I'm working on some projects that I can't share right now, but I can share these pics that I took last week of my two babies.

Ain't they cute!

I'm being published...

in the March 2009 issue of Cards!!! I submitted my card before the October 10th deadline but didn't hear anything for a few days so I thought, oh well, maybe I'll try again later. Lo and behold I got an e-mail this week requesting the card I submitted. How cool is that!

Magazine Inspiration Challenge

I made this card for WCMD but never got a chance to post it. So here it is. Some of you SU stampers may recognize it from the Fall and Winter 2008 catalog.

Deets: Cardstock: Kraft. Pattern Paper: Sassafras Lass and American Crafts. Letter Stickers: Doodlebug Design Inc. The ledger paper was purchased by the single sheet at my local office supply store. The circles are 1 1/4" and the arrow is a Cuttlebug die. Other: ribbon and felt flower. TFL.

Dig deep she says.....

A few weeks ago Kimmie over at UYS challenged us to dig deep in our stash and make a card/layout or altered project. Well here ya go Miss Kimmie. I've had this paper since 1999! Holy cow! I told ya I never throw anything away. lol.


Deets: Cardstock: SU and The Paper Co. Pattern Paper: Provo Craft. Stamps: Hero Arts. I also used my rectangle nestabilities and a Fiskar's border punch. Other: ribbon. TFL.

Got rubons, want more rubons...

then head on over to the Use Your Stash blog and check out this months challenge. Remember all layouts must be new and linked by the 20th. Good luck!

Just a few cards from WCMD

I had a such a blast over at the playground this past weekend. There were so many great card challenges and had it not been for a family emergency I would have completed a lot more of them, but I'm not giving up. I copied and pasted all the challenges and I plan to work on a few more this week.

Most of the patterned paper you see is Pebbles, Inc with a little Colorbok, Making Memories and Provo Craft thrown in. The candles is a Sizzix die cut that I had purchased and never used before this past weekend- shame on me because I think they turned out kind of cute. And the cardstock is none other than Stampin' Up. TFL.



Yeah, I know another birthday card, but seriously can you ever have enough!
Cardstock is Stampin' Up. Pattern Paper is Making Memories and stamp is Studio G and ribbon is Offray. TFL

This last set of cards are pretty simple, but I like the way they turned out anyway. I think I'm gonna give them to my mil so she can send them to her grandchildren. And we all know what an 8 yr. old and a 4 yr. old will do with them after they open 'em. Yep, you guessed it - toss em. lol.

Cardstock is The Paper Co. Pattern Paper is Stampin' Up (about 9 or 10 yrs. old) and Making Memories. Stamps are also from Stampin' Up. TFL.

Toot!

It's official! I am the new permanent design team member for the Use Your Stash blog! Stop by and check us out. The girls over there are so sweet and super talented too, and I look forward to working with them. Thanks Kimmie and Corey for the opportunity!
