Well, I’m a very happy boy today and you know why! It’s FRIDAY! Wee! This week at work has felt long and I will be glad to have some much needed craft therapy this weekend. I always feel so much better after I have made something, don’t you?! I don’t have any definite plans for the weekend so we’ll see what happens. It’s not like my house couldn’t use a little TLC! Before I get to today’s post I want to thank the lovely ladies over at Just Add Ink for choosing my card as their favorite for last week’s just add snowflakes. You can see the JAI post here and my original post here. 🙂

Today is also a great Friday because once again it’s time for Fab Friday! It’s also our 25th sketch! Thank you all for playing along! This time we have a simple sketch for you…

I do love a ticket and I noticed that the Halloween Bash Stamp Set came with one! The base of my card is Summer Starfruit Card Stock. For the background I used a piece of Witches’ Brew Designer Series Paper. I put it on upside and I am sticking with it’s so the bats can read it! (Thanks Sandy!) The greeting is from the Halloween Bash Stamp Set and is stamped in Pumpkin Pie and backed with a piece of Pumpkin Pie. Two thin strips of Basic Gray are embossed with the Needlepoint Textured Impressions Embossing Folder, it reminded me a little of Frankenstein! I mentioned the ticket and it’s stamped in Summer Starfruit and punched out with the Ticket Duo Builder Punch. I love the simplicity and the stamp set is great! Thank you for stopping by to see my Fab Friday Design Team card for our 25th sketch challenge. Head on over to the blog and take a look at all of the other great projects my fellow design teammates have for you. Don’t forget to enter one of your creations for us to see! I hope you have pleasant Friday! 🙂

Mojo 307

Good day! So nice to see you again! It was another lovely day here on the island, sunny and warm. It was actually the hottest day of August so far and it only got up to 90. So, I’m a big Apple fan as some of you may know. One of my favorite things to do is FaceTime. It allows me to do fun things like craft with Brian King. The other night I was making my Mojo card and I cut out the Wonderful Wreath with the Circles Collection Framelits and he said aren’t you going to fussy cut that? I knew he was right but I didn’t feel like doing it. As soon as I hung up however I did just that. I;m glad that I listened!

So today’s card is for this week’s Mojo Monday Sketch and the lovely Julee Tilman has given us this to work with…

The base of my card is Baked Brown Sugar and the background is a piece of Crumb Cake that I embossed with the Stylish Stripes Textured Impressions Embossing Folder. The two triangles are from the Season of Style Designer Series Paper Stack. I stamped the Wonderful Wreath in Old Olive and as I mentioned I cut it out with my Paper Snips. Some Cherry Cobbler Dazzling Details gives the berries some sparkle. The piece of Cheery Cobbler behind it is cut out with the Circles Collection Framelits Dies and the wreath is adhered to it with some Stampin’ Dimensionals. The greeting is from the Tags 4 You Stamp Set and is stamped in Baked Brown Sugar and punched out with the Label Bracket Punch. A Brights Designer Button with some Cherry Cobbler Bakers Twine and some flags in the top left complete the card. I really am glad that I listened to Brian and his sage advice! LOL! Thank you very much for visiting me today to see my Mojo Monday Sketch card for this week’s challenge. Enjoy your Thursday! 🙂

Paper Craft Crew 55

Hello peeps! Welcome to Wednesday! How is your week going so far? Mine is super busy, between work and home I need a few more hours in the day please! Thanks for the comments on the Control Freaks Blog Tour from yesterday! I’m so happy that you enjoyed the projects, they were a lot of fun to make. I also saw that Stampin’ Up! repinned my one layer card from Monday! Woo hoo! That was a very nice surprise. 🙂

I almost forgot to tell you about the new Photopolymer Stamp Set that was recently released by Stampin’ Up! It’s called Another Thank You and it has some really great thank you’s in it. There is also this really cool one that covers a whole card front! You can see it below and If you want a PDF click here.

In addition to the new Photopolymer Set we have some new SIngle Stamps for the Holidays. There are eight including some that coordinate with Punches and Framelits along with a large star that I think is really cool! You can see the flyer below and click here for a PDF of it.

Today I have my Paper Craft Crew Design Team card for this week’s sketch challenge…

I’m liking the slightly askew look lately. You would think it would be easier that putting things on straight but I don’t find that to be the case! The base of my card is Garden Green Card Stock. I inked up the Alphabet Press Textured Impressions Embossing Folder with my Brayer and some Smoky Slate Ink. After I ran it through the Big Shot it had a really nice weathered look to it. The main panel is the Dictionary Background Stamp stamped in Smoky Slate and backed with a piece of Garden Green. I stamped the coffee cup from the Perfect Blend Stamp Set in Garden Green and cut it and the sleeve that is stamped in Crumb Cake on Crumb Cake and heat embossed with White Stampin’ Emboss Powder out. The ticket is from the That’s the Ticket Stamp Set and is also heat embossed and punched out with the Ticket Duo Builder Punch. The little corner is punched out with the “Vintage” Photo Corner Punch. All of the elements are adhered with Stampin’ Dimensionals. Three Regals Candy Dots complete the card. I really love the way the inked embossing turned out and will definitely do that again! Thank you so very much for taking some time to come by and see my Paper Craft Crew Design Team card for this week’s sketch. Head on over to the blog and see what my other teammates have done. Don’t forget to enter one of your creations for us to see! Have a very enjoyable Wednesday!

Control Freaks August Blog Tour

Hello there and welcome to the Control Freaks August Blog Tour! We are so glad to have you along. This month we are featuring products from the 2013 Holiday Catalog. If you are following the tour then you have arrived here from the amazing Julie Davidson’s blog. She has cool stuff didn’t she? I have been having lots of fun playing with all of the goodies in the Holiday Catalog and I have also been having lots of fun with the new Thinlits Dies. I have a card for you today that uses the Thinlits and two fun projects that use Vellum.

First up we have the card. When they introduced the Thinlits at Convention I knew that I was going to love them and I was right! They are so much fun to play with and not just to make the cards. The elements they come with are great too! The base of my card is Smoky Slate Card Stock and I used the Circle Card Thinlits Die to cut it out. The circle in the middle starts off with a piece of Costal Cabana that I punched out with the 2 1/2″ Circle Punch. I used the scallop circle from the Thinlits set to cut out a piece of Silver Glimmer Paper. The snowflake is from the Festive Flurry Stamp Set and is cut out with the Festive Flurry Framelits Dies. The circle of Glimmer paper is cut out using the Circles Collection Framelits Dies. I adhered only the left side so that when you flip the card it circles the greeting which is from the Christmas Messages Stamp Set and is stamped in Costal Cabana. The greeting is from the Joy to the World Stamp Set and is stamped in Smoky Slate. A strip of Silver Glimmer Paper, the one on the left is punched with the Scallop Edge Punch, finish the card off with some more sparkle. I love the way the circle flips around to surround the greeting too!

Next up I have a simple Votive Holder that I made with some Vellum Card Stock and my Simply Scored Scoring Tool. Another one of the snowflakes from the Festive Flurry Stamp set is stamped in Costal Cabana on Vellum and cut out with the Festive Flurry Framelits Dies. I used the Boho Blossom Punch to punch out the piece of Silver Glimmer Paper in the center, it fits just perfectly! A nice simple way to dress up a table or mantle for the Holidays!

Finally I have a quick project that you could use as an ornament or to hang in a window. I stamped the Wonderful Wreath in Costal Cabana on more Vellum Card Stock and cut it out with the Circles Collection Framelits Dies. The berries are colored in with my Cherry Cobbler Stampin’ Write Marker. I used the Expressions Thinlits Dies to cut out Merry from some more Costal Cabana and adhered it to the wreath with 2-Way Glue. It looks really neat with some light behind it and could also easily be used on a card front or a gift package.

I hope that you enjoyed my card and projects for this month’s Control Freaks Blog Tour and that you are inspired to go and play with some goodies from the Holiday Catalog! Next up for you crafty pleasure we have the talented LeeAnn Greff. I’ll bet you can’t wait to see what she has in store for you! Thanks for hopping by and enjoy the rest of the tour! 🙂

Paper Players 159

Ahh.. Monday, I see you are back again. I wish you were a little more considerate of Saturday and Sunday and let them take their time leaving! How was your weekend? Mine was pretty nice. I had my Manhattan outing on Saturday and I spent a lot of time crafting which always makes me a happy boy. The weather here yesterday was overcast and it drizzled from time to time but a pretty good day none the less.

Today’s post is for this week’s Paper Players challenge and Ann has given us a one layer card…

I do love to make a one layer card! It can be a real challenge, especially if you like to layer things up an pile on the embellishments, but who doesn’t like to go outside their comfort zone?! The base of my card is Very Vanilla Card Stock. I created a mask for where I stamped the sentiment with some printer paper. I stamped the Magnificent Maple Stamp in Crumb Cake, Cajun Craze, Crushed Curry, Rich Razzleberry, Early Espresso and Real Red randomly on the card. After I lifted the mask I used my Stamp-a-ma-jig to position the greeting from the Thankful Stamp and stamped it in Rich Razzleberry. To create the outline I used my Early Espresso Stampin’ Write Marker and a ruler. After I finished the card I went on to make a few other projects and when I looked at it again I could swear the greeting looked separate! Thank you so much for coming by today to see my card for this week’s CAS Single Layer card from Ann. Have a good Monday! 🙂

Just Add Ink 178

Good morning! I had a lovely day in the city yesterday with my friend Kim. We went to the diner for some breakfast, I had pancakes and they were delicious. We then headed to the subway to make our way down to Soho and wandered around for a couple of hours. I picked up my belated birthday gift for my friend Danielle and we had some yogurt from the Chobani store. I choose figs and walnuts with honey and they give it to you in a glass bowl that you get to keep. We wandered around some more and I got a picture of the Freedom Tower that will be completed soon. After that we went to Washington Square Park. The park used to be really rundown and not a very nice place to go but they have cleaned it up nicely. I took a picture of the arch and if you look you can see the Empire State Building through the middle. For lunch we went to an organic hummus place called nanoosh. I had a hummus and falafel bowl that was quite tasty and Kim had one with chicken that was also good. Before I headed home we got my car and picked up Kim’s friend Maggie and went to the Target at Riverside Plaza. It’s nice to go there with the car because then they don’t have to lug all of the packages home on the bus or pay for a cab. All in all it was a very nice day! Below are the two pictures I mentioned…

For today’s card I wanted to try the Just Add Ink challenge, just add snowflakes, for this week. I also wanted a simple card with a little bit of a different color combination. The base of the card is Cherry Cobbler Card Stock. For the background I used the World Map Stamp and stamped it in Costal Cabana on Whisper White. The snowflake is from the Festive Flurry Stamp Set and is stamped in Smoky Slate and cut out with the Festive Flurry Framelits Dies. I choose the greeting from the Joy to the World Stamp Set, stamped in Cherry Cobbler, because I thought it went really well with the map stamp. A little fussy cutting with my Paper Snips and some 2-Way Glue and Stampin’ Dimensionals to hold the snowflake and the greeting to the card and it’s finished. If you like a little fussy cutting this would be a nice easy card to mass produce for your Holiday cards. Thanks you very much for stopping by to see my Just Add Ink card for the just add snowflakes challenge. I hope you enjoyed my Manhattan pictures and card. Have a wonderful Sunday! 🙂

Pals Paper Arts 168

A very good Saturday morning to you! The weather here is still gorgeous, nice and cool at night and not too hot during the day. Hopefully it holds out. It would be so nice if it could be like this year round. I’m off to Manhattan this morning to see my friend Kim. We’ll get some breakfast and then wander around for a while. I’m thinking I would like some Mediterranean food for lunch. I’ll see if I can find anything interesting to take a picture of and post it tomorrow. 🙂

For today’s post I have my Pals Paper Arts card for this week’s sketch challenge…

The base of today’s card is Smoky Slate Card Stock. I used a piece of the Winter Frost Designer Series Paper Stack for the background. The greeting is from the More Messages Stamp Set and is stamped in Island Indigo. I used the Christmas Collectibles Stamp Set to stamp an ornament in Island Indigo and punch it out with the Holiday Ornament Punch. The second ornament is from the Ornament Keepsakes Stamp Set and is stamped in Pool Party and cut out with the Holiday Ornaments Framelits Dies. A stamp from the A Round Array Stamp Set is stamped in Smoky Slate and punched out with the 7/8″ Scallop Circle Punch. A few Basic Jewels Rhinestones around the greeting and on the ornaments finishes off the card. I love the simplicity and the colors are fast becoming a holiday favorite of mine. Thanks very much for paying me a visit today to see my Pals Paper Arts card for this week’s sketch challenge. I hope that you have a fun little outing planned today too and that you enjoy your Saturday!

Freshly Made Sketches #99 and Create with Connie and Mary 264

Hmm… I wonder what day it is today? Could it be… FRIDAY?!?! Yes kids, it’s Friday, my favorite day of the week. Weather here, gorgeous. Weekend plans, Manhattan on Saturday and craftiness on Sunday! What are you people up to?

Today’s post is something I haven’t done before and that’s combine two challenges. I used the sketch from Freshly Made Sketches and the colors from Create with Connie and Mary. So here’s this week’s inspiration…

For the base of my card I stamped the Travel Journal Builder Wheel in Smoky Slate on Smoky Slate Card Stock. The panel in the middle is a piece of Venetian Romance Designer Series Paper backed with some Blushing Bride. All of the elements on the card are from the Circle Card and Label Card Thinlits Dies cut from Blushing Bride. The circles are cut out with the Circles Collection Framelits Dies from Smoky Slate. For a little sparkle I used the Small Heart Punch to punch out some Silver Glimmer Paper and adhered it with a Stampin’ Dimensional on the i heart u. I’m really having a lot of fun playing with the new Thinlits Dies and I love that the elements work so well even when you don’t use the actual card base. Thanks so much for stopping by today to see my combined Freshly Made Sketches and Create with Connie and Mary Challenge card. As always, I appreciate your visit and hope that you have an awesome Friday! 🙂

Mojo 306

Hello peeps! It was an absolutely gorgeous day here on Long Island yesterday. Temps in the 70’s and plenty of sunshine. Days like that make it hard to stay in work all day, but I managed to! What’s going on by you? Only one more day until my favorite day and then off to the weekend! Not sure what I’m going to be doing but I’m thinking I might like a little trip into Manhattan to see my friend Kim. 🙂

Now on to today’s post which is for this week’s Mojo Monday sketch. The lovely Julee Tilman has given us this…

The base of my card is Whisper White Card Stock. The background consists of a piece of Soft Sky on top and some Sweater Weather Designer Series Paper on the lower half. In the center is a Tea Lace Paper Doily with some Tangerine Tango, cut out with the Circles Framelits Dies, that I embossed with the Woodgrain Textured Impressions Embossing Folder. The stamped image is from the Tags 4 You Stamp Set and is stamped in Early Espresso and punched out with the Bracket Label Punch. Behind it is a piece of Whisper White that is stamped with the image from the Truly Grateful Stamp Set in Crushed Curry and backed with a piece of Early Espresso. A flagged piece of Crushed Curry with some Naturals 7/16″ Trim Ribbon goes across the center. I threaded a Naturals Designer Button with Linen Thread and adhered it with a Mini Glue Dot in the center to finish off the card. I’m really liking the fall colors and the Sweater Weather DSP is pretty neat too! Thanks for taking some time out of your day to stop by and see my Mojo Monday Sketch Card for this week’s challenge! I hope you have an enjoyable Thursday!

Paper Craft Crew 54

Ahh Wednesday! I like to think of Wednesday as the crest of the hill, now we are just sliding into Friday! Well, we didn’t get the torrential rain out here on Long Island like they said we would. It did rain here and there during the day and after 11:00 last night but not for very long. We are now going to start a stretch of lovely weather again! Yeah! Work was definitely much better today, it was actually pleasant! How are things going by you? Hope all is well!

Today’s post is for this week’s Paper Craft Crew Challenge. This week we have a nice sketch for you…

I deviated slightly from the sketch but kept the layout the same. The base of the card is Pool Party Card Stock. I took a piece of Crumb Cake and cut the middle out with the Oval Collection Framelits Dies and put a piece of Window Sheet over it. Some Epic Day This & That Designer Series Paper is adhered to the card base and the Crumb Cake piece is adhered over it with Stampin’ Dimensionals. I cut the YOU out with the Typeset Alphabet Bigz Dies from Calypso Coral and they too are adhered with Stampin’ Dimensionals. The greeting is from the One in a Million Stamp Set and is markered in Calypso Coral. I used my Stamp-a-ma-jig to put them next to each other. A thin sliver of the Epic Day This & That DSP is under that. I really like the way the YOU floats over the DSP and the colors are nice and soft. Thanks for checking out my Design Team card for this week’s Paper Craft Crew Sketch Challenge. Don’t forget to visit the blog to see what my teammates have come up with and enter your card so we can see your creative take! I hope that you enjoy your Wednesday! 🙂
