TGF Cyber-Monday Celebration Hop

Hello & Happy Cyber Monday!!! I can't think of a better way to spend the day than with my favorite rubber stamp company-- The Greeting Farm!!!

                                   

I am so excited about this celebration and can't wait to hop along and be inspired! So, thank you for taking the time to hop over to my little bloggity blog!

I decided to make a Christmas card using one of my favorite boys - "Hello Ian"! I just love his hat and his little outfit- perfect for paper piecing! I'm a novice at coloring, so paper piecing is my go to technique for creating fun and colorful clothes for my little TGF cuties!

Supplies--Stamps: The Greeting Farm (Hello Ian), Docerela Creations (Snow Fun); Patterned Paper: Crate Paper, October Afternoon; Brads and Stickers: October Afternoon; Card Base and Glitter Tape: Recollections; Ink: Copics, Momento, Ranger

Well, I hope that you all are having a beautiful start to the holiday season!  I know that there are many more blogs to hop around to see on the The Greeting Farm Cyber-Monday Celebration. So, grab a mug of your favorite season drink (mmmm....salted carmel hot chocolate is my favorite) and enjoy the hop!

Thanks so much for visiting! Your next stop is Jane PJ!!!

Here is the Cyber-Monday Hop list in case you get lost....

Happy December Part Dos

Told ya I'd brb! Here's another card I made for the Hero Arts Holiday challenge. This time I took the part of the challenge that calls for using the Hero Arts Neon inks! I'm a total 80s girl, so neon is right up my ally! :) And, again I used the Christmas Snowman Hero Arts stamp set! I also opened up the box of Hero Arts -Just Tags that I purchased earlier this year! I'm elated right now...after months of not really crafting...I've got my Christmas music cranked up and I'm playing with some of my favorite crafty goodies! Happy Sunday, lovelies!


Happy December!!!

Hello,

It's been quite a while since I've dusted off my bloggity blog. Well, I hope that December will change that since I have so many plans to make sure I get the most out of this month creatively and in so many other ways, too. I picked up a couple of new Hero Arts stamp sets last night at Michaels for BOGO...woot woot!

and this one too...

Year Round Sentiments picture
I came across a fab challenge at Hero Arts blog so in keeping with my theme this month (use it or loose it) I've already broken the seal on "Snowman Christmas" to play along! Here's a quick little card I made..


I started out with the Retrosketch #92


Then following my theme I picked up a piece of scrap Heidi Swapp resist paper and stamped the adorable little snow man on it because part of the challenge is to use your favorite stamping technique. I love the resist tech.  Its's a somewhat grungy and messy little card, but it was fun to make. Hmmm....now I think I'm off to play with my Neon inks....I'll be back....

Howdy Friends!!!

Howdy, my crafty friends! It seems like forever since I've been able to craft! Felt so good to sit down and play with my paper, stamps and markers today! Life has been busy, and this summer has been grueling but I pray that all I've worked for this summer will be well worth it! Well, I'll tell you more about that in a future post, but for today...I want to share a super late birthday card that I made for an amazing young lady! It's so funny because last month I told one friend happy birthday a month early because I thought we were in August and this friend...well, I'm about a month late!!! Life...I tell ya!

Anyway, this card was inspired by one of my favorite sentiments from Docerela Creations' stamp set "Birthday Wishes". Love the sentiment because I'm sending this card several states away and this little Anya is just perfect to represent a Texas girl! I'm telling you if you need a birthday sentiment stamp set this is the one to go and grab because it is perfect for all of your birthday cards! Go grab it HERE! So, here's my card:
Supplies: Stamps: Docerela Creations- Birthday Wishes, The Greeting Farm- Wild West Anya; Sticker:  Pebbles; Cobachon & Patterned Paper: Recollections; Glitter Tape: American Crafts; Card Base: Paper Studio: Ink & Markers: Copics, Momento, Prima; Twine: stash.
