Loads of Love

Hello again sweets!  I have a darling card I made the other day to share with you.  I ordered a bunch of new MFT goodies from the new release and could not wait to use them and it paired together perfectly with my new 6x6 MME Happy Day paper pack.  I am quickly becoming an addict to the MFT cardstock and felt...LOVE IT!

I used the Wednesday Stamp Club Sketch at MFT for inspiration

I also played along with The Play Date Cafe color challenge.

Special Friend

Happy Monday everyone.  I have a card today for Card Patterns and The Playdate Cafe.  I thought these were beautiful colors when I saw the inspiration picture at PDCC.  I made the card for my best friend that I left behind when I moved.  I miss her dearly and especially miss our Friday night dinner and shopping at Archivers, Jo Ann's, and Michaels.  We also enjoyed drinking tea together so this was the perfect sentiment for me to use on this card.

Did you see on  Nicole Heady's blog that there is going to be a companion set and dies to go along with this fabulous set?  I was so happy when I saw that.  Also Michelle Wooderson from Mish Mash has a new set coming out too.  I guess I just gave away what my next purchase will be.  hehe.
My friend Patty at Sewing Seeds for You is having an anniversary giveaway on her blog.  Go over and check it out.  She is one of the sweetest blog friends.

Play Date Cafe / Just Us Girls / Mojo Monday

Happy Memorial Day weekend everyone.  Do you have any special plans this weekend?  My brother and his family are coming over tonight for dinner.  We are having some nice weather today.  The humidity is farily low and it isn't too hot. I made a card for 3 challenges.   The Playdate Cafe has a pretty color challenge and JUGS has a dry embossing technique challenge and the sketch is from Mojo Monday

I made the flower out of tissue paper and the color is a lot prettier in person than it shows up in the picture.

I sprayed the doily with 2 different Glimmer Mist colors.  I also cut the tag out on my Circut using Bags Tags Boxes and More

Supplies:
Cardstock:  PTI/ Vintage Cream
DP: Basic Grey

Play Date Cafe # 30

Happy Friday everyone!  I love Fridays.  I just hope my son sleeps in tomorrow morning.  Since we moved he has to get up an hour early and getting up at 5:30 am is just too early for me. 

My Friend Mona has picked a beautiful color combination this week at the PDCC.  I love these colors together.  It just screams spring!

I am in love with my new PTI sets Anniversary and Just For You.  I will definitely be using these alot.  Hope you don't get tired of seeing them.  Look at the vine on my little tag.  LOVE IT!

I made another pin using some of my mom's Swarovski crystals.  I like making my own better because they don't have the point at the end.  I use head pins and put the beads on and then put a dab of glue at the end of the beads.  That's all!  Easy peasy.  What do you think?  If you make some of your own I would love to see.

Cardstock: PTI/ Spring Moss, Stampers White

Thank You / Playdate Cafe & 2 Sketches 4 You

Happy Friday everyone!  I have another Thank You card to share with you.  I think you can never have enough Thank You cards.  Giving someone a card to say thanks means alot more than just saying it.  Especially one you have made.  Don't you agree?

I did stamp the background.  I got the idea from the talented Mona.

The card is for the wonderful color challenge over at The Playdate Cafe.  Mona did a fabulous job choosing the colors this week.  If you haven't played there yet you should go check it out.  Julie has the prettiest blog challenge.  So feminine and pretty.  I used the bonus sketch at 2 Sketches 4 You

I hope I can squeeze a couple more cards in before we move.  There are a couple more challenges that I HAVE to participate in.  I think Tuesday will be the last day I can make anything.  Starting Wednesday I will have to pack the rest of everything in the house.  My wonderful husband has been doing most all of the packing.  :)  I just wanted to tell all of you how wonderful you are and how much I enjoy reading all of you comments you leave for me each day.  I have met alot of amaing women here in blogland.  You all truely make my day.

Jugs / Playdate Cafe

Hello my friends.  I have been very inspired the last couple of days.  I wanted to make the flap card over at JUGS a Birthday card for my mom....and decided to use the colors from the Playdate Cafe.  What took me the longest was to find the right poem for the inside of the card.  I usually try to print something off for the inside of all my cards before I send them off.
What do you do for the inside of your cards?

Click on the card to make it bigger and read the inside.  I fell in love with this poem the minute I read it

.

Beautiful inspirational picture Julie!

Cardstock: American Crafts

Playdate Cafe Challenge #18

Yeah, it is friday!  It has been a long week.  I had alot of fun making this card for Playdate Cafe.  Again,  I used some old and new  K & Company paper .  I don't have black anything...or so I thought.  I found a pad of old K & CO Mansion.  Perfect!  It has that vintage look to it.  The image is also from that same pack.  I was very happy, this came together rather quickly for me.

I used my Glimmer Mist in Wheatfields to age the paper, doily and ribbon.  It is a perfect color for aging.  One of my new favorite products.   That stamp in the upper right hand corner is from Making Memories.

Supplies:

Cardstock: PTI/ Rustic Cream

Patterned Paper: K& Company

Ribbon: Twill Tape/ Offrey

Glitter: Martha Stewart/ Onyx

Button: Repurposed
