What's Hot

Hello to all, I have a couple things to share.  I have a card creation going live at midnight, check back to see it.  I want to share that I made the "What's Hot"  over at Embellish using colors and stitching.  Check out the great challenges and play along!
Also, I received this award "You Going Places Baby" from K-E Kreations, check out her blog and show some luv.  I am suppose to tell where I want to be in ten years.  I hope to still be creating, still be healthy, and still be happy; pretty simple.  I am also suppose to give the award to ten people.  So many people do not do awards and that is perfectly ok.  I have so many fabulous visitors and commenter's I cannot narrow it down.  So if you read this and want it ,take it!  Enjoy.   

I received this awesome "Sweet Blogger Award" from Cindy over at Stamping Therapy, check out her fabulous blog and show some luv!  The same applies for this award, if you are here and want this award or want to give it to someone else, pick it up and spread the luv!

THANKS




Good evening, thanks to all who have been sending well wishes to my dh, to read about that go here.
Also, for the continued support, kindness, visits, and sweet comments I am offering a blog give away, you can enter that here.
I created this card for several challenges, another new one that I discovered.  It is called The Shabby Tea Room and you can read all about the stitching/spring challenge at Debbie's blog.  I also used Karen's sketch, SSSC61 and the colors from Stacey's color challenge, ACT22.  I was also chosen one of the Top 5 from last weeks Curtain Call.  I have the award here to make it simple.  This is also my submission for today's CAS59, to be inspired by New York.  I have a list of places I want to visit, NY is on that list.  I was inspired by so much, the flowers in Central Park, the bright fun funky colors, and all of the design in my card.  NY and design go hand and hand.  I used Verve stamp sets Let It Shine and Celebration Of Thanks,
be sure to head over to the Verve Blog, the project parade has started and the theme is "Fun With Flowers".  I hope you can play along with us; what a fantastic theme, don't ya think?  I stamped the flowers, colored with copics, and popped the up. A simple thanks sentiment, scalloped border punch, and a row of stitches finishes my card.   Also, I wanted to share a Kreative blog award given to me by the sweet Rosie.  Please take time to visit her, she is super talented!  Enjoy.

Good evening, hubby is resting so I have been able to get in some stamping time.  I have so much to share with you tonight.  I have learned of two more challenges today, I really luv finding new challenges.  there is a list down the side of my blog if you are looking for a new one.  The first challenge is from over at SCS the dear Anne Ryan has started a challenge to showcase a stamper each week.  The Featured Stamper every Sunday is one of my favorite challenges so this challenge is fabulous too!  There are so many wonderful stamping gals in the stamping arena it is wonderful to bring attention to as many as we can.  You can learn more about the Queen For The Day, QFTD02 challenge and play along.  This weeks queen is the dear Marilyn Preston, you can see the card I cased here.
I also found the new Poppy Seed Challenge, PSC02 by Lisa Johnson.  This weeks challenge is to use buttons, polka dots, and light moss, you can learn about it here.  I used the gorgeous Basicgrey Designer Paper Kioshi this paper is so pretty.  I also used a Fiskars Upper Crest Border Punch, I added a ribbon tied with a button and linen thread.

Soft & Sweet Note




































Good morning, I am thrilled to be a guest for the Color Q Challenge, CQC19. I have earned both the Wild Card and Color Queen badges for the cards shown here and here. Stop by the Color Q Challenge Blog and check it out, you could win too! These colors are divine, so soft and lovely! I also used the sketch from Card Positioning Systems, CPS153 .
The tiny flower is from the Verve set Believe and the sentiment is from the Ippity set Just Wanted To Say.
I embossed the top panel of the card, added two different border punch designs, added ribbon tied with a button and linen thread. I hope you will join us this week at the Color Q, Ariella shares some fabulous colors, join us! I hope you have a great day. Make an effort today to bring some happiness to someone, you never know what others are really going through.....enjoy!

Happy, Happy, Joy, Joy



















I created this for today's LSC256, to make our creation a palindrome. The sentiment is suppose to be able to be read forward or backward, the dp had to be the same if a line is drawn down the center, and any panels or nesties had to be the same on both sides. Here is the pronunciation and definition of palindrome.
palindrome noun
/ˈpæl.ɪn.drəʊm/US pronunciation symbol/-droʊm/ n [C]
a word or group of words that is the same whether you read it forwards from the beginning or backwards from the end

I also made this for The Pink Elephant Challenge #50, it is a sketch this week. These are the colors for The Play Date Cafe Challenge, PDCC13. I used the Papertrey Ink Blooming Button Bits stamp set, I added fibers and a little stitching. The polka dots are a stamp from the Verve set Bountiful Backgrounds, I luv this set! I added a SU tag, I wanted to use some of the things I have but do not use much, who else can relate to that? Let me know something that you have that you don't use but are inspired to get it out and create something with it. I can't wait to hear from you! Enjoy.

She is thanking me for visiting and gave me an award. She told me that in Russia it is a blogger tradition to give an award, I am so pleased and honored to post this. It really does make a persons day when you leave kind words.....show some luv to others and leave a comment!
