Trust

This was a very simple card to put together..just used my Top Note die from SU and put it through the Cuttlebug and stamped my verse and floral images around it. Nice and simple with little effort...I need cards like this when I am short of time and this verse is just beautiful! This card is quite spring-like especially when you consider the fact that it is March 2 and it is snowing in NC...nearly unbelievable. I know my kids are excited to be out of school, but I am longing for spring!
Have a great day...I have a full day keeping an eye on them outside and of course our tradition of baking cookies on snow days :o)

Blogger#3 Challenge #4

I missed the last blogging challenge so tried to get this one made ahead of time. For this challenge, we were to do a double trouble challenge...meaning we needed to use two colors plus a neutral, two different embellishments, and two different stamps ONLY. So following those guidelines my two colors: Chocolate Chip and Close to Cocoa, Neutral: Natural Ivory; two different embellishments: brads and I thought the Top Note die would count (maybe?) and the two different stamps: the large deer stamp from the Noble Deer set and Flannel Plaid Background.

As I have said before, I am always needing masculine cards and this one fits the bill, especially around this part of the good ole' south ;o)
Have a great day!

Birthday Silhouettes

Last week my SU order came and in it was the Top Note Sizzix die. I think I am about the last person on the paper crafting planet to have one, but I finally broke down and bought one. At first I didn't think I *needed* it, but kept seeing some beautiful cards with it (especially Christmas cards) and wanted to give it a whirl. I used the Gina K. stamp set Tree Silhouettes to make a birthday card for my husband.  He loved it, I just knew the colors and rustic look was right up his alley!   Now I really need to work on my stash of masculine cards...this stamp set sure will make it easy!  I have so many ideas for this, just need the time :o)

Have a great stampin' day!
