Seaside Notions ~ A Stampin' Up! Card

Today's card is inspired by Try Stampin' on Tuesday's sketch challenge #434.
I decided to play with my "new to me" set that I got in my last Stampin' Up! order.
If I don't use the circle on my card for a moon I usually will put some sort of flower on my card, but this time I decided to try something a little different.  Why not a seahorse???  
Make sure you check out what the other designers created using this week's sketch HERE.  If you get a chance to play along we'd love to see what you create!

Thanks for looking and have a great day!

Ehh? It's Your Birthday?

Who doesn't love the set From the Herd in the Stampin' Up! Occasions Catalog?  I know I do!  It's definitely not my usual style, but it's so cute and funny that I had to use it on one of my stamp a stack cards.  The ladies loved it too, but we all agreed that coloring it in sure takes a while!  I have to say I'm sad that the Blendabilities had to go, but I know I'll still color this using an aqua painter and ink pads because it's too cute not to use. :)


Thanks for looking and have a great day!

Punch Art & Pom Poms

Happy Friday Everyone!  I'm SO glad it's here. :)  Since it's Friday you all know that it's time for a card for the Friday Mashup challenge, and I have a fun card to share with you...at least I hope you think it's fun!  If you do keep on reading to see how you can win it! :) This week our challenge is from Avery...and boy did she challenge us, but WOW did the design team come up with some great cards!  Here is this round's challenge...

Create a project with "Pom Poms".
Create a project with "Punch Art:
or Mash it Up! and create a "Punch Art project with Pom Poms on it".

I have to say I had NO idea what to do for this at first since I was determined to mash things up.  But then I started thinking about palm trees and maybe how I could make the pom poms their leaves, then that made me think about the funky Dr. Seuss trees.  Yes, my mind totally wanders like that!  Does yours? lol  Anyway, after thinking about Dr. Seuss tress I started thinking about Horton Hears a Who.  That's when my older daughter informed me I was thinking of the wrong movie and she told me to look up The Lorax.  Yup, those were the trees I was thinking of!  Now how to create the Lorax???  I asked her to grab me my owl punch and things started flying from there.  She tossed my bitty butterfly punch on the table and said use this (look at his head, mustache and eyebrows...totally made using that punch!).  Then it was time for her to go to bed and that meant me too since her "room" is kind of in my craft room right now. lol  Can you imagine having and idea in your head and not being able to run with it right then and there.  Yup, she totally did that to me, but I survived...whew!




Make sure you head on over to the Friday Mashup blog HERE to see what the other designers made and to play along because we'd love to see what you can create too!


Ok...would you like a chance to win this card?  If so just let me know by posting a comment on my blog  here at the bottom of my post.  Yup, that's all you need to do have a chance at winning this card...post a comment. :)  I'll be using a random number generator on Excel to chose the number for me.  I'll post the winner next Monday the 4th so stay tuned.  If this goes over well maybe I'll have to give it a try again in a month.


Thanks for looking and have a great day!

Birthday in the Forest

Today I have a fun little card for you for this week's Friday Mashup, and of course we have another great challenge for you and this one is from Cindy...

Create a project using the colors "Black, White/Ivory and one other color of your choice".
Create a project using a "Word Bubble".
or Mash it Up! and create a "Black & White project with a Word Bubble on it".

I chose to use black and ivory with a little bit of brown...ok, a LOT of brown! lol  I didn't intend on using so much brown, but that's how it came together.  However the second part of the challenge did stump me...use a word bubble.  Yeah, I don't have any word bubble stamps or framelits!  So as you can see I had to come up with my own.  I don't really like the fact that it's going to two different animals, but I couldn't have only one of them saying happy birthday!  Oh well...too late now.  So this challenge gave me the colors, but what about the sketch?  I got that from Freshly Made Sketches.  I thought it was a pretty cool sketch because there's so much you can do with it. :)




And here's a close up of my two cute critter friends. :)  Don't forget to head on over to the Friday Mashp blog HERE to see what other great cards the designers made and to take the time to play yourself. :)

Birthday Zoo Review

Happy Friday, Everyone!  Today I have a fun card for you using this week's Friday Mashup challenge hosted by Holly.  This week's mashup challenge is...

Create a project using the Colors "Turquoise, Real Red, Pumpkin Pie, Wild Wasabi & Neutral of your choice".
Create a project for "a Child".
Or mash it up and create a project with the "Above Colors for a Child".

Now I can easily make a card using these colors, but a card for kids?!  Now that was a little harder.  I have to admit I have NO kids' stamp sets!  Yup, I was kind of surprised myself when I started going through my stamps and realized I didn't have any sets that are meant just for kids.  I think I'm going to have to change that now that the new Stampin' Up! catalog is about to be released!  I decided to use the set Zoo Review because I figured that would be the best bet, or at least I had an idea pop in my mind for it.  I'm kind of sad this set is retiring because I waited a while to get it and haven't used it as much as I would like.  Guess I'll just have to hold on to it for a little while yet. :)


I stamped the penguin stamp two times and used the stampin' write marker to add on to the lines behind the penguins so they were connected across the page.  I wanted to make it look like they were standing on snow/ice with the sky and water behind them so I brayered the water and sky using temping turquoise.  For once I accomplished what I wanted on the first try! lol  Make sure you check out what all the other ladies made HERE and play along if you get a chance. :)
