Thoughts of You

Here's another card we made at this month's stamp a stack.  I hadn't used this set in a while and thought it would be nice to use it again.  I also wanted a card that went together pretty quickly and this one did. :)







Also don't forget about the retiring stamp sets and accessories.  The retiring stamp sets HERE are available until June 3, and the accessories HERE are available while supplies last!

Thanks for looking and have a great day!

Mojo Monday's The Open Sea

  Well I had a very small group turn up for my stamp a stack this month, but I was so tired it was nice to sit and relax a little this time.  I did manage to make two of the five cards while they were stamping too, so that was nice.  This is the only masculine card that we did, but I loved how it turned out.  I used Mojo Monday's sketch challenge here for the design and saw a few cards out there that used similar colors to this that I liked.

RHSSC Punch Art Baby Card

It's Sunday so that means it's time for another Red Hot Stampers' sketch challenge post.  Yikes, it's been a week since I've posted!  Well, I'll have a few cards to show you this week since I have a stamp a stack on Tuesday.  I'd better get busy too!!  Well, today's card follows the sketch...kind of. lol  I needed a baby card and saw really cute card using these punch art animals by Doris Denman, and I had to give them a try.  I think hers turned out way cuter, but I wanted something with more boy colors since that's the kind of card I needed...I know, I used a little pink. :)  Oh, and don't forget to check out the Red Hot Stampers cards made with this same sketch here





Thanks for looking and have a great day!

HSS - Island Indigo Field Flowers

Today's card is an attempt to make a clean and simple card for a card party I'm having next week.  I used the Hand Stamped Sentiments color Challenge #157 to make this card.  I wasn't too sure about the colors, but think I managed to make them work pretty well. :)

Thinking of You Fabulous Florets

Yes, its another sponged Fabulous Florets card.  I was going to use one of my Red Hot Stampers' cards for a stamp a stack that I have tonight and couldn't find it.  I must have given it away and don't remember.  That seems to be my life a lot lately...I don't remember! lol  Anyway, it was one similar to this card, but I did make a few changes to it. :)

On another note, congratulations to Monica C. for winning as my mystery hostess!  I didn't have a lot of orders, but did get enough to give away $25.  :)  I have to start building from somewhere, and if I don't try I won't go anywhere. So here's to a little more success each day.

Gray and Pink Field Flowers

Here's yet another version of a card I made a couple of months ago.  I didn't want just black and white, or just pinks like I used on my other cards so I did gray and pink.  I was actually trying to use my two-tone pink pirouette/rose red ribbon, but ended up liking the gray better.  Changes seem to happen to me a lot when I'm making cards. lol


Remember today is the last day to get free shipping from Stampin' Up!  If you order $25 or more you can be entered into my Mystery Hostess drawing, but you must enter the code SGA9YWFY on my website in order to be eligible.  You will be entered one time for every $25 that you order before tax.  The hostess benefits will be based on the $$$ of sales I receive, and follow the same chart listed in the catalog (see below).  However if you order $150 or more you don't want to enter the code because you will be your own hostess and receive the benefits yourself.
