Card Candy - whooooohooo!

You've heard me mention my friend Sharon before.. well, let me tell you, She's At It Again.. showering me with the most awsome stamped creations!! 

CHECK THIS OUT.. RED, WHITE AND BLACK CARD CANDY GALORE!!

Sharon stamped and punched and embellished all these cute little tags and card candy pieces for me to use when decorating the album below.. isn't the whole thing just fabulous?

I've seen these cute little plastic purses at the Dollar Store.. SO FUN!

Thanks Sharon!!  :)

I have several more projects from Sharon to share soon... not enough days in the week to blog all the cool stuff she makes for me! 

My Way arrow punch

I got this fun card from my dear friend Janice Weightman (I think she got the idea from Jan Wakeland).. how fun is this??  She used the "My Way" arrow punch (pg 181 in the  Stampin' Up! Catalog) to create this quick and easy card. LOVE IT!  Thanks, Janice!

Also used:  It's a Sign set, pg 150, Real Red, Basic Black and Whisper White, and black/white striped ribbon from the "Jersey" Ribbon Originals pack, pg 190.

Cards from Friends

I've been meaning to share these 2 cards I received from stamping friends... they both really caught my eye! 

By Julie Ramos... I love the simplicity of this card, it's really stunning and elegant and fun all at the same time!  (and you can't go wrong with red, white and blue in my book!)

This card is by Wendy Sorensen (one of my talented downline!).. LOVE this set and all her attention to detail!

Can you see the tiny little pop of glitter in the flower center??  OK>> so I think THAT is just the RIGHT amount of glitter for any card!  LOL  :)  (see THIS POST if you want to read about my glitter phobia! LOL)

Thanks, ladies for brightening my day with your cards!

 

Cutest little tote EVER!!

I was given the SWEETEST gift by Cindee Wilkinson at my Luv 2 Stamp Group meeting in April! 

CHECK IT OUT....

I used it for my swaps at Michelle's meeting last Saturday!  Everyone loved it!

Isn't this TOO CLEVER .... 

 

Isn't it toooooooooooo cute???  Cindee has a really great blog.. be sure to check it out!

Cindee got the directions from Julie Edmonds, and you can get more info on the directions on Juile's site HERE.  Check out how cute the tote is when it's filled with goodies, too!

I'm sure you'll enjoy "wandering around" Cindee's and Julie's blogs today!

Have a great day!

Beautiful Card From Lee

Well, hopefully as you read this, we'll be having a blast on Bermuda... I'm typing up a few posts to publish while we are gone so that you have something fun to read while I'm away having FUN!

This is a GORGEOUS card from Lee Conrey!  She used Blush Blossom and (I think) Ruby Red.  After stamping the flower stamp she bleached the flowers and WOW.. doesn't it look gorgeous!!??  Lee, if I got the details wrong, please post a comment and let us know how you did it.

Thank you for the gorgeous card!

RAK from Beate!

I am catching up on posting some beautiful cards I've received as RAK's from blogging friends... here is a gorgeous card Beate sent to me.. I just LOVE it!!  You can see more of her MOST AMAZING work on her blog HERE.  Thanks, Beate!!!

Her attention to detail always amazes me... just one more little embellishment perfectly placed... ok, maybe 3 more embellishments... she just amazes me!  All of her cards are stamped to perfection!

Many Thanks card and a COOL Gift from Dawn!

I saw this cute idea for the scalloped "Many Thanks" on Cambria's blog, and had to play with the idea!  So I made a few Thank You cards tonight!  The patterned red paper and the Ballet Blue are both punched with the Scallop Circle Punch, and I punched a 1-3/8" hole in the Ballet Blue to create the frame around the words. Then I pierced holes in the scallops with the Paper Piercing tool from the Crafters Tool Kit.  The printed paper is the Summer Picnic paper from Stampin' Up!  Too cute!

The large red flower is from the Die Cut Blooms package.

And another FUN thing to share with you.. my sweet friend DAWN made me these ROCKIN' Scissor Charms!!  Don't you LOVE them? ?  I DO!!  Thank you Dawn! :)  Here is the LINK to her Scissor Charm shop, should you decide you need a few!
