July 4th Greetings

The Cutting Cafe has some adorable files for the 4th of July available and these cards are a breeze to put together quickly. Regina is also running a special on these this weekend. If you buy one of the July 4th files you get the background file for free! I can't believe that the 4th is here already...where did June go? My star card is also made from a Cutting Cafe file and includes ovals, hearts, and circle templates!

Thank Ewe

These printed stamp files from the Cutting Cafe are just the cutest. There's a whole set of these printed word and stamp files. I wanted to work with the "Thank Ewe" one so that I'd get a chance to justify buying some flocking! LOL!!! Check out my link to the Cutting Cafe on my sidebar of places to shop.

It's been a while...

I've been on vacation and then had some minor surgery done and I just hadn't found time to post anything...but today I have a simple card to share that I created with some stamps from Happy Little Stamps (see the link to the store)

Lyrical Letter Projects (CX April Assignments)

This month at Creative Xpress, I was assigned to work with the Lyrical Letters Cartridge. This is one amazing cartridge. Would you believe it has six different fonts? I made two different cards and a layout. I had a hard time deciding which fonts and images to use...soooo many to pick from!

Because You are Sweet

Who can resist these adorable shaped cupcake cards from The Cutting Cafe? ...and bonus....a envelope to fit it too! The little sentiment stamp is a perfect match for this card. The stamp is part of a set from Happy Little Stamps. I'm all set for someone to have a birthday now!

MME Bloom

My assignment for CX last month was to work with the Bloom paper line by My Mind's Eye. I created an album and altered a small wooden photo frame. I fell in love with this paper line. I used every scrap of it on different projects this month. The sweet little Ava is my girlfriend's grandchild. Isn't she just the cutest?

Last Minute Mother's Day Card

I seem to have procrastinated too long and am scurrying around this morning finishing this last card for Mother's Day. I used my Cricut Wild Card cartridge to make my round scalloped card and the circle stamped sentiment came from The Cutting Cafe.

Everyday is Mother's Day

Needed to make a card for my mother-in-law, who'll be here for a visit on Friday. Used more of that awesome Bloom paper from MME and a cute mother's day file from The Cutting Cafe.

Let's Get Hopping - Blog Hopping with Outta This Funk!

It a beautiful Saturday morning and what a great day for Outta This Funk's first blog hop! Hope you will join in the fun and hop along with us. I know you will find lots of inspiring things along the way.

I altered this notebook as my contribution to the hop today. I love to use these compostion books to hold things I find inspiring from quotes and notes to magazine clippings. They also make great gifts too! I used My Mind's Eye Bloom kit on this and I believe that MME is fast becoming one of my favorite paper companies. I have used every little scrap of that paper kit on several projects lately. I also had to play around with some more of my vintage ladies images that I've collected over the years from public domain sites on the internet.

Leave me a comment and I'll pick one name to win a small alterable notebook kit. Have fun with our hop today.
