"Hot" Card

The card swap this month over at Paper Crafting Mania was a "hot" card. Since I live in Texas and it's been 107 here, I used the sun for my "hot"! The sun came from Life's A Beach. I used a Peachy Keen stamp for the face and inked the edge of the circle with SU ink. I added Stickles for some glimmer! The clouds came from Mickey and Friends. The stamp is Paper Trey Inc. The best part-I used all scraps to make this card!


For the next 4 days, I'll be on retreat! I should have lots of pages to share next week!

NSD-My Pink Stamper-Challenge #2

This is my entry for the second challenge from My Pink Stamper. This challenge was to use your scraps! I had these left over from a card I did in April and I was waiting to get to use them! The paper is DCWV. The stamp and ink are SU. I blinged it up (is that word?) using Stickles! And there's another bow! The ribbon is from Offray.

Happy Birthday Manda Panda!

Today is Amanda's 19th birthday! (OMGosh! Has it really been that long?) We are in Florida at Disney World, but this is her card. Anne, a lady from Paper Crafting Mania, was nice enough to send me some of the Panda cuts off the Pagoda cartridge. All the other cuts are from Sweet Treats. The green paper is K & Co. and the ink is Colorbox. I used the D'Vine Swirls embossing folder with the CB and Stickles on the fosting on the cupcake!

Here is the inside! I used the Mickey font and my Gypsy for this. The scalloped border punch is SU.

Non Traditional Colors

I am one of those people that match my paper to the colors that are in my pictures. Sometimes that means using very non traditional colors for certain events. I did this page on Friday. It is July 4th from 2007 (remember, I am BEHIND!) As you can see, I did not use red, white, & blue. I used green, blue, yellow, and orange! I also used just a scrap of the orange as the journaling box on this page. I cut the title with Designer's Calendar and then used orange Stickles to give the top of the J some sparkle! The patterned paper is SandyLion and all the cardstock is CM.

Texas Snow Layout

Shelly and I cropped on Friday and I did this page. I tried to use fun flock to make it look like the letters were snow capped, but it really did not work very well. I'm sorry that I did not get it posted sooner, but I am having computer issues and it would not let me download the pictures off of my camera. The snowflakes came from Winter Woodland and Christmas Cheer. I then used Stickles to make them prettier!
