Baby Cards

I got the idea to make this card from Stacy's blog.
I love all of her designs and I cased this almost exactly. The theme and colors are different as is the orientation of the card. I love the way it turned out and I don't even know anybody having a baby! LOL!
I'll just add it to my stash. I'm sure it will come in handy one of these days.

Thanks for looking, and thank you Stacy for the inspiration!

Blog Update

Been trying to update my blog background off and on for a couple of weeks now. I even went so far as to remove that feature and it still shows snowflakes. I'm hoping the problem will correct itself one of these days. Haven't had too much time to stamp lately, but I managed to get a couple cards done today. One is a layout right out of the Stampin' Up catty and the other is from my own imagination. I love the new papers out for spring. Such great colors and patterns.

Thanks for looking today and have a great week.

PS Go Giants!!

Valentines Day

It's about time I updated my blog, so I thought a Valentines Day cards would be a good place to start. Just gettin' my mojo flowin' so we'll see what emerges from the craft room today. 2012 has started out with a bang. A cut in pay and a leak in the pool. Other than that everything is hunky freakin' dory! I hope you are all having a great start to your year and thanks for looking!

Winter Joy

I finally got to use one of my new Unity stamps I got from the scrapbook expo last month. It felt good to put ink to paper and I love the way this one turned out. Awesome color palate for the holidays I think. As stampers I think we are always trying to do something other than red and green for our Holiday cards. I'm sure I'll end up with a few that follow the traditional colors of Christmas since I have so many cards to make this year, but I'm off to a great start! Thanks for looking and have a warm and cozy day.

It' Spooky Ooky Time !

I wanted to get one last Halloween post in before Thanksgiving. Ha Ha! We've been so busy lately and had a lot going on so this one is short and sweet. All images are from TAC. I did manage a short trip to the Sacramento Scrapbook Expo this past weekend and came home with some little treasures from Unity. It was so nice to see a stamp vendor at the show. And they are the nicest people too! Hopefully you'll see some creations using their images soon. Thanks for looking and have a wonderful Halloween!

Happy Fall

I thought it was about time for a season appropriate post. I have a friend who has been a Stampin' Up demonstrator for a very long time and I got this little treasure out of her "I don't use any more" stash. I'm sure this set has been retired for a long time but isn't it cute? I'm happy with the way it turned out too.

It's felt like fall the last few days with all the rain we've had, but the weatherman says we're headed back to the low 80's soon. Rats! I do my best crafting when it's dark and dreary outside.

Thanks for looking today and have a great rest of your week!

Green Mummy ?

Seemed like a good idea at the time! I love this stamp set and it's kind of a bummer The Angel Company is no longer in business. They had so many cute sets like this. I'm glad a rubber stamp never wears out! I'm sure I'll use this little guy for years to come.

Thanks for taking a peek and have a great week!
