We're Getting There

yes ... 50's again today with sunshine!  It's starting to feel alot more like Spring, love it!   I've been busy in my Scrap/Stamp/Office this week and even got 2 more cards done tonight!  Yay me!  I love when MOJO is in the house ... of course, today I might have been helped with a USPS delivery of new Verve stamps, LOL!  

I started with this week's sketch from Sweet Sketch Wednesday, it's their 200th sketch, wow!  I also played Tic-Tac-Toe Challenge at The Paper Players #139.   Three across - Spring, Yellow/Green & Pearls - I win!  

Do you like my cute little flower?   It's made out of Washi Tape.   I saw these at Archivers the last time I was there.   Very fun!      Thanks for stopping by,  I hope you're seeing Spring where you live too.

Supplies:  Jillibean Soup Blossom,  Bazzill,  Stamps Verve,  Ink Black Momento, AMuse Studio Lime, Papaya,  AMuse Studio Pearls,  Misc Buttons and Washi Tape

Big Hugs



Made this card kind of late last night but  I had 2 (cyber) friends that needed hugs.  I was thinking about both of them and wanted them to know I was reaching out to send the much needed {{hugs}} and prayers their way!

I found this sketch HERE on Stampin' When I Can for this week.    

It's good to have friends!

January 5 - SCS Crafty Girls Blog Hop

Woot!  Woot!   It's the 5th of the month and that means it's time for the SCS Crafty Girls Blog Hop!   I can't believe it's going on our 2nd year together!   We said good-bye to some friends from 2012 and we have some new SCS Crafty Girls for 2013!   It's all good.    Stamping and scrapping are great hobbies but sometimes there is more time to spend getting cards, page and blog posts done than others.   It makes for a good flow.   

This month our Featured Crafty Girl is Jeannette  (SCS:  Forest Ranger).    She loves all things nature as you can tell by her SCS Forum Name.   I CASED this card from Jeanette's March 2011 Gallery.   I knew as soon as I saw it,  this was the card I wanted to make.   It goes great showing off my new stamps from "Your Next Stamp".   Isn't that little bird CUTE?!    It's called Holiday Joy Robin.   It was perfect for my Day #5 card for "100 by 100" Challenge ... after all, we're supposed to be using stash and now that he's in my stash, he needed ink.    This fun paper I picked up at Archivers, it's Doodlebug Sweet Tweets. 

Be sure to check out the other Crafty Girls Blogs to see more of our Featured Stamper,  Jeannette!

Supplies:  Archivers Red, Green CS,  Doodlebug Designs Sweet Tweets DSP,  STamp Your Next STamp Holiday Joy Robin,  Stickles, Copics, Misc Ribbon

Brrr ... It's Been Cold Here

Oh Yeah,  TGIF!   We have a saying at work,  "it's almost Friday" ... it seems to make everything more bearable and then when it really is Friday,  we feel like celebrating!  So for today, YAY!    I love this snowman stamp from Penny Black but there is only so many ways you can color it.  I sent cards out already this year using it and I made 2 of these for my [Friends That Scrap] 2+2 Card Partners.   Our theme was "Winter".   I'm not sure what I was saving this Basic Grey Paper for ... something ... but I had 1 piece left of Dasher paper and it's now cards!  Yay for using stash...so far it's Day #4 of our 100 by 100 and I'm keeping up.   I'm sure it will get more crazy at time goes on. 

The sketch is from MOJO Monday #199 posted in July of last year.  

Well,  It's a good day,  it's Friday,  YAY!   Enjoy the weekend.

Supplies:  BG Dasher DSP,  SU Old Olive, Not Quite Navy,  PB Snowman Stamp,  Momento Black Ink, Copic Markers,  Stickles,  Sparkle Ribbon

Wait for the Lord

I don't know where I got this stamp but it was in my stash and was perfect size for the sentiment box.  This started out closer to this week's MOJO Monday #274 sketch but I took a little detour by adding some extra paper,  it just needed "something".  

The bird is from my CTMH Art Philosophy Cricut Cartridge, it's one of my favorite cut outs.   I'm trying to use up this cute MME 6x6 Lost & Found Pad I have so you'll see more cards w/ these colors.  It's not that I don't like it but as part of the "100 by 100" challenge I'm in on SCS we're supposed to be using up stash and this has been in my stash for awhile.   I got it when HL was having a 50% off sale...and there it sat.  Glad to be using it.  It thought these colors were good "January" colors.

Supplies:   MME Lost and Found Urban Square,  SU Choc Chip, Kraft;  Stamp Unknown, Ink SU Choc Chip, Cranberry Crisp, SU Choc Chip Satin Ribbon, Misc Red Buttons,  Cricut Cartridge CTMH Art Philosophy

Love in Pink

I had a wonderful crafty start to 2013 ... I got 10 scrap pages done and 4 cards.  I think my DH knew that I was sad it was my last Holiday Vacation day so he was being sweet about me crafting all day.  It was nice.  Good way to get ready to get back into the chaos of the new year.   It's all good though.

This is for this week's Verve Sketch on SCS.   I've been trying to play every week since I got my Verve Stamps.  It's a good way to be motivated to use them.  Not that I wouldn't but you know how it can be to get new stamps and then they sit in your stash....LOL!   This is also my first card for the 100 by 100. 

I can't tell you much about the paper supplies because the papers were gifted to me.  The stamps are Verve Stronger Love, AMuse Studio French Roast Ink, Colorbok Metal Accents, Xmas Red Stickles
