Trust In The Lord

I created this for Taylor's Sketch Challenge from last Friday TESC78. I used Sweet 'N Sassy sets for this one, I stamped Dream Silhouettes off one time and then stamped the scripture in black on top. I used SU Cottage Wall dp, this dp is gorgeous. The bottom panel is the new SU embossing folder Elegant Bouquet on white card stock and then I sponged over it with SU Rich Razzleberry ink, I really like the way it turned out. I added black ribbon with a light lilac button, and I punched out butterfly. DH and I went away on a motorcycle getaway this past weekend to Pennsylvania, we went to York to the Harley Davidson Factory and to Lancaster to the Sight and Sound Theater, we had a wonderful time. The picture of the Lion and The Lamb was taken outside the theater, isn't it a beautiful site?

My dh is truly my biggest fan, I love that; he always makes sure I get to go to a stamping/craft store. I went to a ACMoore, it was my first time to visit an ACMoore, I like it better than Michael's. The one I visited was great, lots of stuff I can't find at Michael's. That's where I picked up these buttons, they are soooo cute, they are called Bag-O-Buttons. Thanks for stopping by and I hope you enjoy your evening!

A Warm Hello-Prism

Good morning, I created this card for Prism Papers, I have been guest designing for them for the last three months and have so enjoyed working with Jaime and Tami and all the DT from Prism, they are a wonderful group to work with and for. Prism is looking for a new guest DT and you can learn all the details here, be sure to find out how you can be considered for Prism, it is soooo worth it! I also will be giving away Prism card stock next week, so be sure to check back to learn how you can win. Our theme this month has been texture, for the texture theme this go round I used my favorite way to add texture, distressing and scoring. I use distressing on most of my creations, but added heavy distressing to this card. Prism papers are the best, I luv how they look once it is distressed and these colors bring out the distressed look even more plus they look totally fabulous together. Most times when I add distressing I use my scissors, it seems to make a finer torn edge. I have a new Scor Pal and like adding lines to my projects too, it can be very elegant looking or aged looking. Of course I used my favorite Prism color Burned and added contrasting colors to bring it all together. To see all of my creation head over to Prism.

A Simple Thank You

This is a simple thank you card I made for my MIL, for being so kind on my birthday. I wanted something fun, I used the flower image from Sweet 'N Sassy Stamps called Dodle Flowers, I stamped the flower so that it is laying on the side and stamped the thanks under the stem. I added ribbon with a cute button, I have found a new luv for buttons; they really do look sweet added to cards. I didn't used to like them when I used them but thought they where adorable when everyone else did, isn't that weird? Well, you will be happy to know they are working for me now...lol. Have a great evening, dh and I are headed out of town on the motorcycle for the weekend....woohoo!

Congratulations Joanne

I created this for today's fabulous FS131, Joanne; I have always admired her work, her style is amazing. I was inspired by her gorgeous card here. I change the shape using the Label 3 Nestie, added the ribbon, and made mine different colors. Speaking of colors, I used Stacey's Curtain Call Act 2 color challenge. To use bravo burgandy, mellow moss, so safron, and white; I have waited until the last day to get this challenge in, I have been avoided these colors. I really like them together, but just was not having inspiration to get my mojo going. Well, until I saw Joanne's card, as soon as I saw her card I new what I was going to do and with what colors. I used the Verve flower, the SU leaf embossing die, and so safron ribbon. I hope you like my take on her beautiful card! Enjoy your day and ask God to show you where you can spread a little sunshine in someones life today!

Happy Thanksgiving

Good morning, it was a cool 58 degrees when I got up at 6:00am, so I thought it is fitting to make a Fall/Thanksgiving card. Fall is my favorite time of year; I luv the mornings anytime, but I especially luv them in the fall. Today's LSC232, you have to use an image that is food and only use papers that are the names of food. My image is from Stampin Up Happy Blessings and the paper colors I chose are Chocolate Chip, More Mustard, and Very Vanilla. This was a fun one, I hope you have time to play. I colored, distressed, sponged, and done a little sewing on this one. I am very pleased with how it turned out and will send it to a very spacial friend this Thanksgiving. Enjoy your day, it is Friday, I hope that means time with family that is filled with love and laughter! For a little fun, tell me your favorite season and why, I enjoy reading your comments and thoughts!

Holiday Cheer

The theme for Prism papers this month is texture, we are creating projects or cards that have texture. The great thing about that is whenever you use Prism papers you are using texture, it is fabulous card stock.

To see all of my creation go to Prism Papers For A Lifetime.

I used a selection from the Seaside line today called Kelp M404, it has a great leaf like texture, perfect for my mitten card. I used Blush Red Dark R049-E and ran it through the Cuttlebug with the swiss dots folder for more texture. I added ribbon tied in a bow and I stamped, colored, and cut out the mittens. I then added glitter and raised them up on glue dots to give depth and texture. I hope I have inspired you to use texture and get started on your Christmas cards, *wink*....I know some of you think I'm nuts Christmas in August, hey I like to be prepared.
