Hi everyone,

It's time for Celebrate the Occasion #15. We are to create a project that has to do with "Retirement" I know if it were my husband and I, we would be traveling. So I decided to  use the car from Nifty Fifties cart, it's cut at 2.34. The base paper of my card is from Recollections all other papers are from My Mind's Eye the Stella and Rose addition. I just love this paper, I won it off a challenge blog! I also added hemp and a button for a little extra pop. I  want to give Adrian from By Adrian 4 U her "Kudos" in helping me  to choose a sentiment!! ;) (Typed on computer)

I hope you have enjoyed my project, now it is time for you to create yours and link it to Celebrate the Occasion, make sure you invite a friend to join in on the fun!

Design Team Thursday!!!



                                                                                   
Hi everyone,

Just want to take the time to welcome all of my new followers and say thanks so much for following my blog!!
 
It's now time for Design Team Thursday! This week we were to create a project with a "Summer Time" theme, I was inspired by Joy's "I'd love to SEA you!" on her Lots of Pun Stamps. I chose the lighthouse and waves from Wall Decor and More cartridge. I thought this would be the perfect image for a tall card which measure 4x9 and it fits into a standard size business envelope. The lighthouse is cut at 5.95, the waves are at .71. The moon is from Disney's Pooh and Friends and it's cut at 1.15. The black paper is from Recollections and the rest of my papers are from my scrap stash. I really love the look of this card and already have a request to make 2 for one of my clients!
 
I hope you have enjoyed my creation this week and make sure you visit Joy for all of her wonderful products!!

Thanks so much for stopping by and have a blessed day!

M.A.G. Challenge by the Page # 26




Hi everyone,
Sorry about the late post for M.A.G. Challenge by the Page, as you probably know, they were doing maintenance on the blogger yesterday and we were unable to post. M.A.G. Challenge should be up and running a little later!!! 
This week we are using the Hello Kitty Cartridge page #73 

I didn't want to make a Christmas card so I went with the "shadow and blackout features" and used it
as a stand for my die cut cow! I cut the stand image at 1.10 for both features, I also used a punch for the circle. My black paper is from Recollections and everything else is from my scrap bin. I added some hemp, buttons and faux stitching to complete my project. I just love this little cow!! 
I hope you have enjoyed my project, now it is time for you to get your creative juices flowing and link your project to M.A.G. Challenge by the Page, make sure you invite a friend to join in on the fun!
