This card is for the Splitcoaststampers Sketch Challenge #183. I need to make Thank You cards for Swanson to send out for his graduation gifts. I told him I would make several mock ups for him to choose from. This is the first mock up. Swanson is an Eagle Scout and I wanted the theme […]

I decided to play along in the My Favorite Guest Designer challenge for December. The challenge is to use a watercoloring technique in my project. Unfortunately I do not own any MFT stamps. Someday…maybe Santa will bring me a few sets for Christmas. I decided to make a square card this time. I have never […]

Good Morning! Well, I have had my half cup of coffee and started on the first 32oz. of the 96oz. of liquids that I am supposed to drink every day. I think I am ready to ‘wax eloquent’. Mbwah! Like that’s ever gonna happen! But seriously, I am feeling long winded this morning so if […]

Well, I’m not gonna sugar coat it…this card just about did me in! I went into my craft room at 1:00pm to make this card for Cammie’s World Alzheimer’s Day Heart to Heart blog candy, Lori’s challenge using the CPS sketch and of course the CPS sketch challenge. A cool 10 hours later I finally […]
Where I have been and a birthday card for my BFF

Where have I been for the past month and a half you ask? Trying to decide which piece of furniture is the most comfortable to spend your day lolling around on….the couch or the bed. HA! No but seriously, the short answer is not feeling well. If you’re interested the longer, more involved answer is […]
Incredible Inspiration…Mackintosh Enamels
Posted in Cards, Challenges, Inspiration, Stampin' Up! on July 5, 2008| 2 Comments »
Today’s splitcoaststamper’s challenge was ripe with inspiration for me! This card is for the Inspiration challenge #135. We could be inspired by anything from Mackintosh Enamels’ catalog. I chose this pattern, but I wanted a platter instead of a plate. That’s why my “plate” is an oval. I love the way they display their collections […]

For some reason that song kept going through my head as I was making this card for my daddy. Today is his birthday! Happy birthday Daddy!! This is the second card I have made today for the Splitcoaststampers Color Combinations Challenge #173. I was actually inspired by this card made by E3stamper. This set is […]

Swanson asked me to make a birthday card for a friend’s mom, Karen. She is very fun loving and easy going, plus the whole family likes cats. So I decided to use this cat stamp from The Cat’s Meow set. It’s playful, and fun and don’t think it had ever seen ink before! I stamped […]
Purely Wild Celery…Sounds like something got loose in my garden

I made this card the Splitcoaststampers Color Combinations Challenge #173. This week’s challenge uses Wild Wasabi, Purely Pomegranate and Certainly Celery. Well, I don’t have Wild Wasabi or Purely Pomegranate, so I had to improvise with Old Olive and Rose Red. Not nearly as pretty together, but at least I get to play along. I […]

I made this card for the Featured Stamper challenge on Splitcoaststampers. Michele’s gallery is a joy to look through and I had a hard time deciding. Here is the card that I chose to case. I kept the layout, tag, twine and twill tape the same. I had to change to stamps, papers and charm […]
