With Sympathy

I almost forgot to post today's card!  I love the sketch from this week's challenge at Try Stampin' on Tuesday.  At first I was going to emboss something on my card, but then decided I wanted to use this card at this month's stamp a stacks so I went with black instead.  Since I really need some sympathy cards I decided to go with that sentiment, but you could really use a lot of different stamps using the set Teeny Tiny Wishes. :)


Make sure you visit Try Stampin' on Tuesday's blog HERE to see the great cards the other designers made and to play along too. :)


Just a touch of something on the inside. :)

Thanks for looking and have a great day!

Bokeh Thanks

Wow, what a fun mashup challenge Holly has for us this week at the Friday Mashup!  It took a little thought and a couple of tries, but I think I ended up with a pretty cool card.  Here's Holly's mashup challenge...

Create a project with the "Bokeh Technique".  Link to technique here.
Create a project with "Die Cuts".
or Mash it Up! and create a "Bokeh project using a Die Cut". 

Make sure you visit the Friday Mashup HERE to check out all the cards everyone made.  I have to say I love how they all turned out!
We'd all love to see what you create for mashup #174!

Thanks for looking and have a great day!

Bloom with Hope ~ Anniversary

Today I have an anniversary card for you that I made while I was on vacation for the weekend.  Yup, I packed up some of my stamping stuff and made cards all weekend.  It was kind of nice to be ahead for once, but I know it won't last long! I thought this week's sketch challenge from Try Stampin' on Tuesday would work well for an anniversary card so I got busy and created this.  I like how it turned out. :)


Make sure you head on over to Try Stampin' on Tuesday's blog HERE and check out all the other great cards using this sketch. If you get a chance show us what you can create too.  

I had to take a few pics of the flowers up close.  Like I said I only packed some of my stuff and one of them was not my blendabilities in Cherry Cobbler.  No problem...just emboss the flowers then sponge the color on. :)


Thanks for looking and have a great day!

Welcome Back!

Well, I'm a little late posting my Friday Mashup card.  I headed north for the weekend and usually don't have a problem getting online...not this time! lol  Now that I'm out of the woods and in the open a little bit I have access again.  Anyway, it's time for another challenge from the Friday Mashup.  This time Cindy has a fun challenge for us and it's all about school...

 Create a project with " a School theme". 

Create a project with "Your School Colors".
or Mash it Up! and create a "School themed project with your school's colors". 

 I know I keep saying this, but my cards this week have definitely not been the norm for me.  I've really had to think outside the box, but that's a good thing.  :)  I have to admit I wasn't sure what to use for school colors since I home schooled my kids through most of their time in school, so I went with my own school colors from way back in the day. lol  I did go pretty simple for my card though...a blackboard with a few things written on it and the traditional apple.  

Make sure you head over to the Friday Mashup HERE to see what everyone has created for you and to play along.


Thanks for looking and have a great day!

Festive Flurry Christmas

Merry Christmas...at least that's what today's card says. :)  This card is totally different than what I usually make, but the challenge for 'Tis the Season is an inspiration challenge and has letters on it, so that's what I ran with.  I didn't want just black and white so I went with Naturals White, Basic Black and Blackberry Bliss.


Make sure you stop by 'Tis the Season HERE to check out some other great Christmas cards.  Christmas is coming faster than you think and you don't want to be stuck making cards at the last minute! ;)


Thanks for looking and have a great day!
