LOC: Happy Birthday

Quick card to share that I have in the September 2011 issue of CardMaker. I made it using some Layers of Color products: Starflower Frame cling art stamp, as well as Vintage Medallion art stencil.   The sentiment is from Block Greetings (Gina K. Designs).

I have been such a bad blogger...really terrible since school started back up..sigh.  I miss visiting your blogs and will get back to it as soon as things settle.  I have been stamping, between chauffering the kids here and there...just can't share anything quite yet :)  So excited though because next two weeks will be FAB!!!

Finally had a smidge of time to get stamping and had this one "brewing in the brain," LOL!  I love creating backgrounds with sentiments and used the set Gnome One Like You for this quick card.  It appears my style of stamping is transitioning into more clean and simple. Most likely due to a busier schedule...sigh.  We started back to school 3 weeks ago and the schedule as well as the "extra" stuff is keeping me hopping!   For those of you that don't know I homeschool our two oldest and even started a little preschool with our 3 year old.  That makes a 10th grader (think Algebra 2, Spanish and Biology, ugh...), a 6th grader and the little 3 year old who likes to make sure he can get into as much mischief as possible in a 24 hour day :)  The latter is very successful!

I will say I am very excited for September to be here!  Love the crisper mornings we have been having and knowing fall is just around the corner.  September also brings some exciting releases from my two favorite companies: Gina K. Designs AND Layers of Color!!

Thanks so much for stopping by and I hope you have a wonderful day!

CPS233

I made this for the CPS233 sketch this week.  Clearsnap is sponsoring this week and I used Smooch Spritz in Holly Berries and Gingerale.  It is a beautiful spritz ink that gives nice coverage.  I used some stamps from Layers of Color Flutterescent and Merci Bouquet, as well as the stencil Vintage Medallion.  The bling is from Want2Scrap.

Just a heads up...Layers of Color is having a Fall Release coming very soon... Monday, September 19th to be exact!

   Can't wait to share with you some projects I have been creating as well as seeing what the rest of the LOC DT has made!!

Thanks so much for stopping by and I hope you have a wonderful day!

STV Challenge - Case the DT Cathy

I made this for the Stamp TV Free For All Friday - Case the DT Cathy challenge from last Friday which is Cathy!  Love her style and I went back in the archives and picked this one from 2009.  Love her card and was inspired to create one just like it using the same set, A Year of Flowers.

Thanks so much for stopping by and I hope you have a wonderful day!

GKD Double Take Blog Hop

Join us in a Double Take hop! Members of Gina K.'s Design Team have come together to host a hop where we will show you how to make cards using the same products and stamp images to create two very different cards.

If you came from

Lee's blog, you're at the right place. If not make sure to head over to StampTV where you will find a list of all those participating in today's hop.
Here are the cards I made for the hop...

and...

For my cards I used the new Stamp TV Kit: Falling for You as well as three colors of GKD Luxury cardstock: Chocolate Brown, Turquoise Sea and White.  The patterned paper is from Echo Park Paper: A Walk in the Park.  Some favorite Spellbinders dies of mine I also incorporated into these designs... Beaded Ovals and Classic Ovals Large.   I finished them off with some Chocolate Stitched ribbon (another fav of mine).
 

Now head on over to Giovana's blog

to see what she's sharing with you today!

Thanks so much for stopping by and I hope you have a wonderful day!

Layers of Color ~ Trio of Cards

Here is a simple set of cards I made using May Bouquet cling art stamp as well as Encouragement from Layers of Color.  Love the quotes Nina included in this clear stamp set and perfect for encouraging little notes to friends.  I added a yellow bow using some gingham ribbon and colored the center of each flower with a yellow Copic.  Quite Clean and Simple, but some days are like that...and that's a good thing :)

Thanks so much for stopping by and I hope you have a wonderful day!

CFC15

I made this for the CAS-ual Friday's challenge which this week is a sketch, which is hands down my favorite challenge.  I used some Hero Arts stamps I got from CHA in January (how on earth I never got them inky in all this time I will never know!)  The butterfly images are from Antique Engravings and the sentiment is from Stitched Frame. 

Thanks so much for stopping by and I hope you have a wonderful day!
