TGF FFF Paper Piecing Challenge

Hello everyone! I'm finally back on my blog! It's been a hectic month, I tell you! Anyways, I made this card with Boho Anya. She is just so pretty and I hadn't used her in a while so I decide to color her up and put her on a card. I paper pieced her skirt and shirt with the Crate Paper Maggie Holmes Flea Market. I used that paper pad for the rest of the card and also used the original Crate Paper Maggie Holmes as well. So there's my card! Thanks for stopping by!

Yay! Do you know what today is? It's new release day over at Chi Chi Memories! Today the Friendship Set was released. These Digis are available in a set as shown below or individually.
Are they not the cutest?! You should go check out the other DT projects "HERE". Here's my first card using the new set. And I used the " It's ok, wipe your tears" girls. I just thought they were so sweet! I made a scene card as if they're sitting on the porch and that greenish rectangle that's supposed to be a door. I know it doesn't look much like a door but be imaginative, lol:) Anyways, I put the two girlies in the middle as the main focus and even added a little bit of glossy accents to the bottom of the right girl's eyes so it looked like she was crying.

It has been a while since I've made one of these cards and I thought it would be great to fit all the girls of the Sugarplums Beach Kit Stamp set nicely.

Although I'm drenched in sun screen anyways so not really soakin' up the rays.:) Anywho, When I saw the challenge summer dreaming I thought of the beach so that's what I made.

I saw a really pretty peacock paper and thought it would go perfectly with The Greeting Farm Stamp Savannah with the feather in her hair. So that was that!:) Thanks for stopping by!

Hello everyone! Today is the Yumi and Fumi Handmade 1st Birhday Blog Hop! Happy Birthday Y&FH!:)Yay!! You should've gotten here from Blankina's Blog. If not, please check out the "Yumi and Fumi Handmade Blog" to check out the entire list of blogs for the hop. For our project, we were asked to make a project that was inspired by this photo:
Such a gorgeous photo, isn't it? I just love the bright pinks and orange. So I pulled those colors and also wanted to incorporate the table runner look, so I cut some strips of paper to look like different table runners. Then I used a wood plank paper from My Mind's Eye to mimic the table. I used lots of flowers at the top because in the photo there are flowers in the background and also a vase on the table. And I put the Yumi and Fumi Stamp right in the middle as my focal point.
So there's my card:)Have you enjoyed all the gorgeous projects you have seen so far? Well, there are quite a few more stunning projects throughout the blog hop, so I hope you can continue to hop along and be sure to leave a comment on all of the blogs for a chance to win some great prizes over at the "Yumi and Fumi Handmade Blog".

School's Out FFF Challenge!

Hello, my crafty friends! Today I have a card to share. I saw the new Farm Fresh Challenge over at The Greeting Farm Blog and instantly wanted to make a card for it. I had my new stamp set Never Ever that I had purchased from the Farmers Market sitting on my desk so I thought this would be the perfect time to use the Wendy stamp in the set. Since the first thing I think of when I think of school is books, I figured I'd make a little library scene. So I Wendy right in the middle and surrounded her with different stickers that would portray a book. As if the books were coming to life!:) Then I used the sentiment "Every book is an adventure" from the Studio Calico Memoir stamp set. Thanks for looking!

TGF FFF Summer Challenge

Hi guys, today I have another summery card to share. This one is for the greeting farm Farm Fresh Challenge Summer! I looked through my Greeting Farm Stamps and came across this cutie from the Oliver and Amelia Summer Fun Stamp Set that I hadn't colored up yet so I decided she'd be perfect for my card. This I made a raft(or tried to) so Amelia would look like she's lying on the raft soakin' in the rays out in the pool:) I also added an action wobble behind the raft so it would wobble and look like it was the raft moving in the pool. Thanks for stopping by!

SOG June Sketch Challenge

I'm back! 3 cards in one day! This must be a record for me:) Today I was organizing my stamps and came across this super pretty Big Wishes Mae Stamp that I had never used! So I went over to the Some Odd Girl Blog to see their sketch for this month. Their sketches inspire to get to cardmaking! Here's the sketch for this month:
Pretty cool, huh? So I just mirrored the sketch and added a little paper clip to the side. I decided to go with really bright colors to go along with Big Wishes Mae:) I also added stickles to the balloons and lots of other elements on the card because nothing says fun like stickles! I also used the sentiment " Did some say cake?" and the candles on the tab from the same stamp set. That's all and I think that's it for cards today=)

Art Impressions Eyelets and Brads Challenge

Hi everyone! Today I have another Father's Day Card to share and for this one I just had to use the Art Impressions stamp, Lazy Boy because he is the spitting image of my dad! I also added the Paper Smooches Tv from the set Boob Tubes. And I just printed out a baseball game and stamped the tv on top of it. So it would look like a baseball game was on. As my dad loves to watch baseball games, or more specifically falling asleep during baseball games.:) I think he'll get a kick out of this card:) I also entered this in the Art Impressions Brads and Eyelets challenge and took out some of my old brads from my stash. I used some small metal square brads and a large square brad and stamped dad on it. Anyways, thanks for stopping by!

Angie Delarie Dancing in the Garden New Release

It's that time again! A new release atAngie Delarie Products! And I am just so excited about this release! The digis are called Dancing in the Garden.
Aren't they great? Love how quirky and whimsical they are! So I thought this was the perfect opportunity to make an explosion box, or my version of it. It's the same as a normal explosion box except I put scotch tape on edges of the 3 walls I wanted to be standing up and adhere patterned paper to the inside so you can't see the scotch tape. I added lots of stickers and flowers to surround these fantastic images, love how much character they have. My idea for this explosion box was a forest with these fairies with the main one with the heart sending you love:) And the other fairies guiding the way in the path. Hope you can go check out the other Design Team members wonderful projects HERE! Thanks for stopping by!

Paper Smooches Picture Perfect Challenge

I am loving the Paper Smooches Sparks Challenges! They just really get me to look at my stamps in a different light. So the challenge for this week was a Picture Perfect challenge. This was the picture:
I went through my Paper Smooches setsand this alien in the ufo from the Space Cadet Stamp Set immediately caught my because his eye just looked like the reinforcements on the tags in the picture. So I stamped them around the card and thought of the sentiment from Toy Story "We are eternally grateful" from the claw scene:) And that's that! Thanks for stopping by!
