Simple Monday

Good Monday morning to you! How was your weekend? Mine was fantastic, mostly due to the fact that it was a three day weekend for me! I got all of my little projects done, cleaned the house, spent time with my peeps and crafted for like 16 hours!! Now that’s a good weekend. I have two cards for you today. I made these last night, one was from some scraps I had left over and the other one was just because. Sometime you just need a simple card and that’s just what these two are.

The first one is really simple. I had these triangles left over from something else I was working on and I thought maybe just glue them down the center of a card base of Pool Party and have them point to a greeting. The greeting is from the Best of 25 Love Stamp Set and is stamped in Basic Gray. The triangles are Basic Gray, Crumb Cake and Bermuda Bay. Super simple yet sleek and modern. Triangles are very big right now too so it’s a little trendy!

The second card is a case of a card that I had seen either on Pinterest or a magazine. Simple base and background of Whisper White. The feather is from the Fine Feathers Stamp Set and is stamped in Bermuda Bay (think I like the color a little?!) and the greeting is from the A Little Greeting Wood Mount Stamp Set. Some Calypso Coral spritzed and a little piece of Epic Day This & That Washi Tape and we are almost done. I happened to have some sequins that match the Bermuda Bay color perfectly so I added three! Again super simple card but it still has some wow factor. Perfect just let someone know you are thinking of them.

I hope that you enjoyed my two simple cards and that they have inspired you to create some of your own. Thanks so much for dropping by today, I’m happy that you did! Now go and have yourselves a nice Monday! 🙂

Paper Players 145 🙂 & Sneak Peek

Hello there! Thanks for stopping by to see me today, how has your weekend been. Mine has been stellar! I had off of work on Friday and I crafted for about nine hours yesterday. It rained almost all day so it was the perfect day to be creative. I plan on being crafty again today too! It’s Sunday so that means its time for this week’s Paper Players!

This week we have a color challenge from Jaydee…

I have to admit that I had a little trouble with these colors at first. I decided that I would use some new goodies to jump start the creative juices. The base of the card is Very Vanilla Card Stock. I cut off 1 1/2 from the front after I used the Distressed Dots Background Stamp. The panel on the right is embossed with the Lacy Brocade Textured Impressions Embossing Folder. The paper on the left is from the Print Poetry Designer Series Paper Stack. The greeting is from the Label Love Stamp Set* and is punched out with the Artisan Label Punch*. All of the large postage stamps are from the Postage Collection Host(ess) Stamp Set* and the small ones are from the Lovely Little Labels Stamp Set, I let them hang over the edge for a little something different. The Postage Collection set is great because it’s a builder set, you can make the stamps the way you want. I was inspired by my friend Sandy to cut off some of the front of the card, it’s a nice change from the usual. I hope that you enjoyed my Paper Players Guest Designer card for this week’s color challenge from Jaydee. Thanks again for stopping by and enjoy the rest of your Sunday! 🙂

Fab Friday 18 & Sneak Peek

A very happy to Friday to you all! I’m off today and am going to do some cleaning, crafting and relaxing. I look at a day off as a chance to catch up on some neglected things. Cleaning as of late has been neglected and relaxing is always neglected, the crafting is just a necessity! The weather here today was torrential downpours and then some sun. It was alittle muggy but not cold so I’m ok with that!

Today’s post – Fab Friday Design Team 18 Color Challenge…

The idea for this card started out with wanting to punch the new alphabet out with the new Mosaic Punch and grew from there. The base of the card is Soft Suede. The middle consists of some Print Poetry Designer Series Paper, Summer Starfruit embossed with the Fancy Fan Textured Impressions Embossing Folder and some Primrose Petals stamped with the Summer Silhouettes Stamp Set. The letters are from the ABC – 123 Sketch Alphabet & Numbers Stamp Set* stamped in Raspberry Ripple and punched out with the Mosaic Punch*. I think I have mentioned how fond I am of the new alphabet, it’s a great size and I like the sketched look. Thank you for visiting with me today to see my Fab Friday Design Team card for this week’s color challenge. Check out the Fab Friday Blog to see what the other designers have for you and enter your card for me to see! Have a wonderful day!

Freshly Made Sketches #85 & Sneak Peek

Ahh… Thursday! For me it’s Friday! I’m off from work tomorrow! Woo hoo! It rained here yesterday for a good part of the day, and when I say rained I mean poured buckets! The sun did peek out from time to time just let us know that it was still there. Temperature wise it was pretty nice just a little on the muggy side. Are you all ready for Mother’s Day? I made 4 cards last night so I’m good!

Today’s post – Freshly Made Sketches #85, a sketch from Narelle…

You see it… there are some flags on there! The base of my card is Strawberry Slush* Card Stock. I used a piece of the Quatrefancy Designer Series Paper* across the top and embossed the rest with the Modern Mosaic Textured Impressions Embossing Folder*. The image in the middle is from the A Round Array Stamp Set that you can get now either alone or in a bundle with the 7/8″ Scallop Circle Punch. Behind it is some more Strawberry Slush* punched out with the 1 1/4″ Scallop Circle Punch. Behind that is an image from the Happy Flowers Host(ess) Stamp Set” cut out with the Floral Frames Collection Framelits Dies. A 2 3/8″ Scallop Circle completes the middle and under are the flags in Pool Party and Daffodil Delight. I love the nice mix of colors in the DSP and layering the stamp from the A Round Array Set makes it seem bigger than it is. Thank you for dropping by to see my Freshly Made Sketches Card for this week’s challenge. I hope you all have a very lovely Thursday! 🙂

Mojo 292

Hey there and happy Monday?! Nah, Monday is rarely happy. How was your weekend? Mine was pretty good considering I worked on Saturday. I had a nice day yesterday, I got some crafting in, went to see some friends and spent some time outside in the beautiful weather. What were you all up to this weekend, hopefully some good fun happenings! I did get up a little early this morning so I decided to make my Mojo Monday card. If I made the card and wrote the blog post you know it was really early!

Today’s post – Mojo 292, a sketch from Julee Tilman…

As soon as I saw the sketch I though of the Epic Day This and That DSP! The base of my card is Pool Party and I used the soon to be retiring Color Spritzer Tool to spritz some Pool Party ink on it. The pieces of paper are from the Epic Day This and That Designer Series Paper and on the one I used the “Vintage” Spiral Notebook Border Punch. The flags and the scallop across the middle are all Basic Gray. For the greeting I used the Label Love Stamp Set*, stamped in Gumball Green, and the Artisan Label Punch* with some Stampin’ Dimensionals for some pop. I like the simplicity of the card even with all of the elements. Thank you for checking in with me today to see my Mojo Monday Sketch Challenge card for this week. Have yourselves a good Monday! 🙂

Paper Players #144 🙂 & Sneak Peek

Happy Sunday! How is your weekend so far? Mine is good despite the fact that I had to work all day yesterday, I did get to rappel off of the side of a 12 story building! I thought I would be a little nervous but once you lean back over the ledge and stand there for a minute it’s all good! I had a great time and I can’t wait to do it again. Here are a few pictures, I ‘m the little dot at the top!

The last picture is my friend Danielle and I all geared up. It really was a lot of fun! Now, it’s Sunday and that means it’s time for this week’s Paper Players Challenge. This week we have a theme from Anne Marie, Mother’s Day…

Perfect timing for next week! The base of my card is Melon Mambo Card Stock. I used the Ovals Collection Framelits and a piece of Gingham Garden Designer Series Paper* to cut out a frame.

The greeting is from the Delightful Dozen Stamp Set and is stamped in Night of Navy and backed with some Night of Navy that is pierced on the edges.

Create with Connie and Mary #250

Happy Friday! Not so happy for me as I have to work tomorrow. Sigh… oh well what can you do?! It was gorgeous here yesterday and is supposed to be a little chilly today and then back to beautiful tomorrow. I really do love riding around in my car with top down. It’s so nice to feel the sun and the wind on you face. Sometimes it’s the little things that make our day! What’s on tap for your weekend?

Today’s card – Create with Connie and Mary Colors #250…

A very neat color combo and I immediately thought of This & That Epic Day goodies. The base of my card is Pool Party. Some Epic Day This & That Designer Series Paper makes up the background and the hexagons that I cut out with my Paper Snips. For the chevrons I used my 1″ Square Punch to punch out some Calypso Coral. The greeting is from the Really Good Greetings Stamp Set* and is stamped in Versa-Mark and heat embossed with Pool Party Stampin’ Emboss Powder. I used the Ticket Duo Punch to punch it out and the Occasions Paper-Piercing Pack to create the backing. I hope that you enjoyed my Create with Connie and Mary Color challenge card for this week and thank you for stopping by. Have a fantastic Friday! 🙂

Today’s post – Freshly Made Sketches #84, from Linda S….

Super clean and simple! The base of my card is Early Espresso. The paper in the middle is Soho Subway Designer Series Paper* and I added some Crisp Cantaloupe* that is cut with the Finishing Touches Edgelit Dies. For the large flagged piece, some more Crisp Cantaloupe* embossed with the Chevron Textured Impressions Embossing Folder. The thanks is from the ABC & 123 Sketch Alphabet & Numbers Stamp Set* and I stamped it a little imperfect go a little better with the Lovely Labels Stamp* that is punched out with the Artisan Label Punch*. I really am throughly enjoying the new goodies and hope that you are enjoying seeing them! Thanks for stopping by to see my card for this Week’s Freshly Made Sketches Challenge. Have a wonderful day! 🙂

Mojo 291 & Sneak Peek

Morning and welcome to thank god Monday is over! That was not the best day in recent memory. It was a little dreary here and rained a little on and off all day. Not much else went on, it was definitely a Monday. Oh, don’t forget that today is the last day to order the Sent with Love Stamp Set and Designer Series Paper.

Today’s post – Mojo Monday 291, a sketch from Julee Tilman…

We won’t even mention the round or square! The base of my card is Early Espresso and the background is a piece of Crisp Cantaloupe* that I embossed with the Woodgrain Textured Impressions Embossing Folder, no tabs. The paper is from the Soho Subway Designer Series Paper Pack* which I am loving! Some Early Espresso and Soft Sky cut out with the Labels Collection Framelits and one paper-pierced are up next. The images are from the Postage Collection Stamp Set*, it’s like a build your own postage stamp set. Love it! There are so many great new goodies in the catalog I can’t wait for you to see it! If you need one let me know, I’ll send you one as soon as I get them. I hope that you enjoyed my card for this week’s Mojo Monday Sketch Challenge.
