Season's Greetings-CCCC guest post

Hello, hello! 

Hope all is well?!...

I'm just swinging in with a short reminder post for the Caffeinated Christmas Card Challenge...

Without further ado, here is my card...

If you saw my first card, you'll see with my second card I stuck with using some Paper Smooches goodies again. ;) And I originally thought I only had ONE snowman stamp set (which really I do) but I found this other PS set that has a sweater with a snowman on it. Maybe it can be considered a partial second set? (heehee) 

Again, keeping things nice and simple. I did some coloring with Copic Markers and then some die cutting. Pretty straight forward card, right?...

There's still time to play along with challenge, so be sure to check out the CCCC blog for all the details...hope to see you there! :)

Thanks so much for stopping by!
Have a wonderful day! 

Happy National Cocoa Day!

Hi y'all! 

Hope all is well?!... :)

Happy National Cocoa Day! Did you know that a day even existed for cocoa?...To be honest, I really didn't know until being a part of the Coffee Loving Papercrafters design team. ;) They say, we learn something new everyday, right?!... :) 

Because it is National Cocoa Day (IG #clpnationalcocoaday), we are celebrating over on the Coffee Loving Papercrafters blog with some fun! You'll want to be sure to check things out. Did I mention a giveaway?!...*hint, hint* ;) 

Here's my card to celebrate...

I recently purchased a couple goodies from Not 2 Shabby and couldn't wait to play with things! And what's better than having the perfect stamp set fit with the cocoa theme?...Isn't that little kitty and cup cute?!...I did some simple coloring with a handful of Copic markers and then some fussy cutting. I used a little touch of patterned paper and a postage die. Then topped things off with a sentiment and burlap twine. Simple and sweet, right?!...

Well that's all for me. Be sure to swing by the CLP blog to see all the creations and fun...I would love to see you there!

Merry Christmas-Caffeinated Christmas Card Challenge Guest

Hello, hello! 

Happy December!?!!...Can you even believe we are in December?!...(lol) Time just keeps flying on by! ;) 

Today, I'm swinging in guesting at the Caffeinated Christmas Card Challenge! :) Thank you to everyone at CCCC for having me! 

Without further ado, here is my card...

So I did a fun throwback to Paper Smooches, though I did use the 'cup' from Avery Elle. After going through many (and I mean many) of the Stamps- that I have, can you believe I only have ONE snowman stamp?!!...How can that even be, I ask myself!?!!...Have you ever ran into the issue of only have one stamp of a certain image?...Well, with all the wonderful sales that were going on for Black Friday, I did manage to at least pick up a stamp or two of a snowman (I honestly can't remember what I got?...lol I told my husband to wrap everything. lol). Anyhow, I will at least have more than one. ;) 

As you can see, I kept things very CAS. I just did some simple and quick coloring with Copic markers and then die cut the snowman. To top things off, a touch of enamel dots/star. Cute, right?!...

That's all for me. Be sure to check out all the other creations at the CCCC blog and to join in on the fun...I would love to see you there! :)

Thanks so much for stopping by!

Joy-Love-Peace- Coffee Lovers Fall/Winter Blog Hop (card 2)

Hi y'all! 

Hope all is well?! :)

As you may know the Coffee Lovers Fall/Winter Blog Hop is in full swing...If you haven't checked things out yet, be sure to head over to the CLP blog...you don't want to miss out! ;) 

This is my second card that I'm sharing for the hop and for my card today I'm using Unity Stamp Co. with a touch of Waffle Flower Crafts. Without further ado, here is my card...

Nice and simple, right?! :) I simply stamped the image and did some coloring with colored pencils. I haven't used colored pencils in a bit and thought I should put them to use again. ;) After coloring things I stamped on a sentiment and then used a border die to finish things off. Easy peasy, right?!...

Well, that's all for me. 

Thanks so much for stopping by!

Merry Christmas (Guesting at CCCC)

Hi y'all! 

Hope all is well?! :)

Today, I'm guesting over at the Caffeinated Christmas Card Challenge! Thank you to all the ladies for having me!! :) 

Without further ado, here is my card...

Cute, right?!...It's been so long since I made a shaker card that I forgot just how fun they are! I did some coloring with Copic markers and then did some fussy cutting after. I then used a cute little 'tag' die to make the shaker window and then filled it with some fun embellishments. To top things off, a simple die cut Merry Christmas. Easy peasy, right?!...

Happy birthday

Hello, hello! 

Happy Friday-yay! Hope all is well?! :)

I'm swinging in today to share a birthday card with you. No challenges or design team work, just fun and honestly, I did need a 'fancy' birthday card. ;) Without further ado, here is my card...

This card may look difficult to make but believe me, it was sooo easy. Once again, I went with using some layering stencils (that's where the easy part comes in). I choose to do some blues, then light browns and after a splatter of dark blue paint. Since I've been seeing a number of 'postage' dies circulating around blogs/social media, I thought one (the only set I have lol) would work nicely to showcase the blooms. To finish things off for my card, a simple 'happy birthday' sentiment and a touch of gold pearls (that's the fancy part lol). So there you have it, a fancy birthday card?!... :) 

Well, that's all for me,

Thank you so much for stopping by! 

Have a wonderful day and see you soon!

Happy Monday, hope your week is starting off right?! :)

I'm swinging in to share a card for the current My Favorite Things Sketch Challenge. 

Here is my card...

As usual, nice and simple. Aren't those little kitty cats cute?!...I did some coloring with Copic markers and then used the matching die with the images. After, a little quick stenciling for the background and a sentiment. Lastly, a touch of pearls. Sweet, right?!...

That's all for me. Thank you so much for stopping by!
Have a wonderful day and week!!

Hello, cupcake

Hi y'all! 

Happy Monday, evening! I'm swinging in late tonight (about 10:15 pm) to share a card I made for the current My Favorite Things Sketch Challenge. 

Without further ado, here is my card...

I had so much fun coloring those cupcakes! I kept things simple and made the cupcakes the focus point because who doesn't love cupcakes?! ;) 

Well, that's all for me. Just a short post tonight.

Hi y'all! 

Happy Saturday, hope you're enjoying the weekend?! :)

I'm swinging in to share a card I made for the current My Favorite Things Sketch Challenge.  I've been wanting to play along with the MFT Sketch Challenges for a bit but just kept missing the deadline. So when I saw the challenge this time I made sure to get something whipped up without missing the deadline! (lol)  ;) 

Nice and simple. I used a stencil for the background and then some coloring with Copic markers and die cutting. After, I stamped on a sentiment to the card and then added on the little kitty and fish bowl. Cute, right?!...

That's all for me. 

Thanks so much for stopping by!
Have a wonderful day and enjoy your weekend! 

MFT supplies used: BB Cool Cat stamp set, BB Cool Cat die set, Herringbone stencil.

Aloha

Hi y'all! 

Happy Wednesday, hope your week is going well?! :)

I'm swinging in today to share a 'just for fun' card. I know I've been a little quiet lately but I'm trying to find somewhat of a crafty schedule. My daughter works now, so I've been running her to and from work and with the mix of everything else it can be a little tricky at times. ;) 

Anyhow, without further ado, here is my card...

Aloha! I'm using up some 'new to me' goodies in my bin of new/never been used (never ending lol). I chose some blue plumeria and used a stencil to add some gold glitter in the background. Then topped things off with 'aloha' and some pink enamel dots. It may not look simple but it's a pretty simple card, especially when you have a stamp/stencil/die set. ;) 

Well, that's all of me.

Thank you so much for stopping by!
