Welcome to our next Red Hot Stamper's sketch challenge.  Yes, this week I made another carnation for my card...this challenge happened to be perfect for it.  By the way, in case you're getting sick of them you'll be glad to know this is one of the last ones I need to make for a while...I think. lol  I've been making them for ladies' birthdays that I've been stamping with over the years, and who also have come and supported me at my stamp a stacks. :)  To see a few other cards from this challenge visit the Red Hot Stampers blog  here. 

A 3-D flower needs a special "envelope" too. :)

Thanks for looking and have a great day!

Well, it seems like the lazy side of me has been showing again this week.  I have plenty of cards to put on here, but I haven't been doing it!  I figured I'd get to it again and show you the cards I made to swap with the Red Hot Stampers.  I got some really cute cards in return too!  I love the variety of cards I get from doing swaps. 

Thanks for looking and have a great day!

RHSSC44

Welcome to another Red Hot Stamper's sketch challenge.  I loved the challenge this week because it went perfectly with a flower I wanted to put on a card for a stamping friend's birthday.  Yes, it's another carnation.  I think that's kind of been my flower of choice this year for most of the ladies birthdays that come come to my stamp a stacks. Just a different design each time. :)  Head on over to the Red Hot Stampers' Blog here to check out a few more cards for challenge #44.

A big flower needs a big envelope, so I had to make a matching box. :)

It's Independence Day!

Happy 4th of July and Happy Birthday to a friend and fellow stamper who gives out many, many cards each month to let people know she's thinking about them.  I love that I can make a red, white and blue card special for her just like she does for so many other people.  I dropped it off last night (just after 9 pm at her front door), so I hope she ends up finding it! lol  I didn't want to knock on the door so late in the evening.  I saw the Stamping 411 Saturday sketch challenge here and thought it would make a cute card for a 4th of July birthday.

Thanks for looking and have a great day!

Today's cards are one of my June stamp a stack cards.  Not the easiest to prep because of the embossing, but pretty simple for the ladies to make.  I really liked how my first one turned out...until I made my second one.  Then I liked that one a little better. lol  I liked having more than one of this card to show the ladies how sponging can vary from person to person, or in my case from card to card.  When you make your own cards, each one is unique. :)

Thanks for looking and have a great day!
