Gold Mint Shining Star Birthday

Hi there! I aim to be a bit more productive today than I was yesterday! After my lazy morning Michael and I headed over to see Renee at Scrap-A-Latte. The weather was perfect yesterday for a nice ride in the convertible. When we finished there we headed to Friday’s for some dinner and then came back to the house and saw Taylor for a bit. We watched a little TV and then Michael went back to Sue’s and I made a card and puttered around a bit before calling it a night. Let’s see what today brings!

Oh, I almost forgot! Michael made a super clean card for the Freshly Made Sketches 200th sketch! You can check it out by visiting his blog HERE!

The card is a somewhat simple birthday card, I wanted to use a new die that Michael had gotten me! The card base is Neenah Solar White 110lb and the front is covered in a piece of Basic Black. I put a strip of Little B Washi Tape down the right side of a piece of Mint Macaroon and adhered that to the card. Another piece of Basic Black is cut out with the Simon Says Stamp Large Tags Dies and some Hemptique Black Hemp Twine is tied though the top. I adhered the tag to the card with Fun Foam and SNAIL. The star is that new die I mentioned from Spellbinders called Shining Star. I cut it out from Gold Foil Sheet and adhered it to the tag with Foam Tape. My greeting is from the Simon Says Stamp Happy Birthday Messages Photopolymer Stamp Set and is stamped in Memento Tuxedo Black on a piece of Mint Macaroon and also adhered to the tag with Foam Tape. A scattering of Pretty Pink Posh Gold Sequins completes the card. I love the Mint Macaroon and Black together and that star is just so cool! I hope that you enjoyed today’s birthday card! Thank you for talking some time out of your day to come by and visit me! Have an excellent Sunday! 🙂

Pals Paper Arts 264

A good afternoon to you! I had another lazy morning, I’m starting to like them too much! LOL! Just hanging around talking and watching YouTube videos with Michael. Yesterday after work I came home and made my card for today. Michael got to me a little later than planned so we decided to go out and get salads from La Bottega and watch a movie. We watched The Holiday with Kate Winslet, Cameron Diaz, Jude Law and Jack Black, it’s one of my favorite movies and Michael had never seen it. He liked it too! Today we are going to go to street fair in Westbury and then who knows. I hope that your weekend is off to a good start!

The card that I made is for this week’s Pals Paper Arts sketch challenge…

PPA 264

This was another one that I put together in my little brain while I was at work! That card base is Neenah Solar White 110lb Card Stock. My background is a piece of Bermuda Bay with a piece of Vellum over the top that I embossed with the We R Memory Keepers Feathers Embossing Folder. Three strips of The Paper Cuts Blueprint Curious Metallic Card Stock are adhered to the card with Foam Tape. I stamped the three feathers from the Mama Elephant Fair Feathers Photopolymer Stamp Set in Hero Arts Pool to Navy Ombre Ink and then cut them out with the matching Mama Elephant Fair Feathers Creative Cuts Die. The feathers are also adhered to the card with Foam Tape. My greeting is from the Mama Elephant Heartfelt Wishes Photopolymer Stamp Set and is also stamped in The Pool to Navy Ink. I used the matching Mama Elephant Heartfelt Greetings Creative Cuts Dies to cut the greeting out and then cut out three more from white adhering them on top of one another for a little dimension. Finally, a few Pretty Pink Posh Seattle Mix Sequins are adhered to the feathers. I love the Heartfelt Wishes Set, it’s so nice to have all of the different languages to say thank you! I hope that you enjoyed my card for this week’s Pals Paper Arts sketch challenge! Thanks so much for visiting today and enjoy what’s left of your Saturday! 🙂

Fab Friday 71

Hello my friends and welcome to Friday! My other visit to the off-site location for work yesterday was a good one. I got a lot accomplished the rest of the day too. After dinner I came home and Skyped with Andrea for a bit and worked on some projects. Taylor stopped by and we watched some of Enemy of the State, still a good movie after all of theses years. The rest of the evening was pretty quiet. Tonight Michael is going to make dinner, I’m looking forward to that! The weekend, who knows! I do have to share a picture of little Daniel from the wedding that he went to in the Dominican Republic. He really needs to be in Gap ads!

Daniel DR 2015

Love his little outfit, especially the sleeves rolled up!

Another good thing about this Friday, it’s time for another Fab Friday challenge…

Fab Fri 71 8-21-2015

It’s too early for such fall colors! LOL! My card base for today is Neenah Solar White 110lb Card Stock. I flagged two pieces of paper, one from the Pretty Petals Designer Series Paper Stack and another from the Cherry on Top Designer Series Paper Stack. The larger flag is adhered to the card with Fun Foam and SNAIL. A piece of Blackberry Bliss is also flagged and adhered to the large flag with Foam Tape. The greeting and stamped image are from the Awesomely Artistic Stamp Set, the image is stamped in Delightful Dijon and the greeting in Tangelo Twist and Blackberry Bliss. I used the Project Life Cards and Labels Framelits to cut out the greeting and they are both adhered to the card with Foam Tape. A piece of Hemptique Harvest Hemp Cord is tied in a bow around the Blackberry Bliss piece and a few My Minds Eye Wicked Enamel Dots are adhered under the greeting. A fun simple card just because! I hope that you enjoyed my card for this week’s Fab Friday Color challenge! Stop by the blog and check out the rest of the Design Team’s cards and enter yours in the gallery!

Paper Players 258

Ahh… the middle of the week. It was nice here again yesterday, I snuck out of work and went and had lunch with Michael, a nice way to break up the day. It was a quiet evening, I had dinner and then watched a little TV and made a card. Today I have to go to one of the other sites for work, that should be fun. Can you feel my enthusiasm?! LOL! Only two more days to go!

The Paper Players has a fun challenge this week, clean and simple beach…

Paper Players #258

I got some new stuff that I thought would be perfect for it! Today’s card begins with a base of Neenah Solar White 110lb Card Stock. The front is covered with a piece of Bermuda Bay. My background is a piece of paper from the Heidi Swapp 6×6 Dreamy Paper Pad. I thought a shaker would be fun so I used the Simon Says Stamp Hello Sunshine Frame Die to cut out a piece of Bermuda Bay and Pumpkin Pie. I inlaid the sunshine back into the frame and then adhered a piece of Window Sheet to the back. Some Foam Tape along the edges seals in my mix of Hazel & Ruby The Makery Green with Envy and Pretty Pink Posh Tangerine and Spring Mix Sequins. The sun is also from the same die and is cut out from some Daffodil Delight and adhered to the card with SNAIL and Foam Tape. A simple bright fun shaker card that definitely makes me think of the beach! I hope that you enjoyed my card for this week’s Paper Players beach theme! Thank you for your visit and have a wonderful Wednesday! 🙂

SIP Challenge 10 – Inspiration

Hi there! I see that we all made it through Monday! Mine was a little rough, I ended up leaving work at 12:00, my stomach was bothering me so I came home and laid down for a bit. I didn’t eat anything and finally felt better around 4:00. I headed over to Scrap-A-Latte to meet up with Michael. When the store closed at 7:00 we headed over to the Walt Whitman Mall to meet up with Andrew and his girlfriend Kayleigh for dinner at Zinburger. It was great to finally meet Kayleigh and we had a fun time, the food was pretty good too. After that I came home and watched a little TV before calling it a night. Again, I don’t think that I will be having China Fun anytime again soon!

If it’s Tuesday then that means that it’s time for another Stamp, Ink, Paper Challenge! This week we have an inspiration photo from Lisa…

SIP Inspiration 10 400

I used the colors as inspiration for my card. That base is Neenah Solar White 110lb Card Stock and the background is a piece of Lost Lagoon. I used the Simon Says Stamp Postage Stamp Edge Frames Dies to cut out a piece of Crumb Cake and then cut out the You with the Simon Says Stamp Big You Craft Die. My Hello is from the Simon Says Stamp Flip Flop Season Photopolymer Stamp Set and is heat embossed in Hero Arts White Embossing Powder and colored in with my Prismacolor Pencils. Some Foam Tape and Fun Foam with SNAIL adhere the panel to the card. A few Pretty Pink Posh Summer Mix Sequins are scattered across the card and finish it off nicely! I love the negative of the You cut out of the background and popped up! I hope that you enjoyed my Design Team card for this week’s Stamp, Ink, Paper Inspiration challenge!

Mojo Monday 411

Hi there and welcome to the start of another week! I had another super weekend! Yesterday was fun at The Ink Pad with Michael as always and met up with Kim for dinner before heading home. We went to China Fun for dinner and while it was good I don’t think that I will go there again, stomach issues! LOL! The ride home was not too bad and we stopped by Sue’s before heading back to my place. I dropped Michael off at Scrap-A-Latte this morning, he’ll be there all day working and giving another one of his very popular baby book classes. Later on we are going to meet Andrew and his girlfriend for dinner, that should be fun!

Monday and it’s time for another Mojo Monday challenge…

Mojo411

I used some fun new stuff that I found at The Ink Pad yesterday to make today’s card. The card starts off with a base of Neenah Solar White 110lb Card Stock. The front is covered in a piece of Basic Black and the background is a piece of Real Red. Two strips of Basic Black go across the card on a diagonal and I used the Lawn Fawn Stitched Borders to give them the neat cross-stitch look. Next up is a panel of Daffodil Delight that is adhered to the card with Fun Foam and SNAIL. The lantern is cut out from a piece of Real Red using the Marilyn Robertson Kimono Lanterns Die and adhered to the panel with Ranger Multi-Matte Medium. My greeting is from the Mama Elephant Heartfelt Wishes Photopolymer Stamp Set and is heat embossed in Gold Stampin’ Emboss Powder on Basic Black and cut out with the matching Heartfelt Wishes Creative Cuts Dies. I adhered it to a piece of Vellum and the the Vellum to the card with more Multi-Matte Medium. Three birds from the Lanterns die set are cut out from Gold Glimmer Paper and adhered with Foam Tape. I love that lantern die, so cool and different! I hope that you enjoyed my Design Team card for this week’s Mojo Monday sketch challenge! Head on over to the blog and check out the rest of the Design Team’s cards and enter yours in the gallery! Thank you so much for stopping by and have a magnificent Monday! 🙂

Blushing Surf Enjoy

Happy Sunday peeps! Michael’s baby book class at Scrap-A-Latte was fun yesterday! After we were finished there we stopped back at my house to pick up a few things and then made our way towards Manhattan. I dropped Michael off in Astoria so he could meet his friend Marcia for dinner. I then headed over the 59th Street Bridge to Kim’s apartment on 63rd and I was lucky enough to get a parking space pretty much right across the street! Score! I took the stuff up to the apartment and then went for a little walk. When I got back I put on the TV for a bit and then went and met Michael at the 59th Street Subway. On the way back to the apartment we stopped for some Pinkberry frozen yogurt. This morning was another lazy one and now we are at The Ink Pad. A pretty good weekend so far!

So, today’s card uses one of my favorite sets, it’s a “Vintage” one but I still love it! My card starts with a base of Neenah Solar White 110lb Card Stock. For the background I heat embossed the “Vintage” Woodgrain Background Stamp in White Hero Arts Embossing Powder on Blushing Bride and adhered it to the card with SNAIL and Fun Foam. The cake and wreath are from that favorite set, the Your Perfect Day Photopolymer Stamp Set. I used a piece of Solar White 80lb and some Simon Says Stamp Surf Blue Ink with the Ranger Mini Ink Blending Tool to give the paper that faded look. The image is then heat embossed in White Hero Arts Embossing Powder and cut out with my Paper Snips. The wreath is also heat embossed but on Vellum and cut out with a die from Dies By Dave. I adhered the wreath with Ranger Multi-Matte Medium and the cake with Foam Tape. I used some more of the inked paper to cut out the Simon Says Stamp Painted Enjoy. It’s cut out three more times from white and then adhered together with more Multi-Purpose Glue and then to the card. A scattering of Pretty Pink Posh Sparkling Clear Sequins completes today’s card. I really do still love the Your Perfect Day Set, especially that wreath! Thank you very much for stopping by to see me today! I hope that you have a super Sunday! 🙂

Pals Paper Arts 263 & Card Class Cards!

Another beautiful day here on Long Island and a happy Saturday to you! Yesterday after work I headed over to Scrap-A-Latte for the second night of card class with Michael. We had some Red Robin burgers for dinner with Nicholas, yum! LOL! The class was lots of fun as always, the Friday night crowd is a little rowdier than Thursday. Here is a picture of Melissa, Andrew and I…

RC SAL Card Class Peeps

After class I came home and worked on my card for today and then watched a little TV. Today I’m off to Scrap-A-Latte to hang with Michael while he gives his baby book class and then we are off to Manhattan tonight to stay at Kim’s again. Tomorrow we will be working at The Ink Pad so come on by if you are in the area! Speaking of The Ink Pad, if you take a little detour and go over to see Jenny of at Craft Test Dummies she has a post and a video about her little visit to The Ink Pad and you can see what she picked up!

If you scroll down to the bottom you can see my two cards that I made for card class using Reverse Confetti. I’m loving that little bird on the birthday card!

No on to my card for this week’s Pals Paper Arts color challenge…

PPA 263

I went with a nice simple card using one of my favorite sets from the 2015-2016 Stampin’ Up! Catalog. My card base is Neenah Solar White 110lb Card Stock. I heat embossed the greeting from the A Dozen Thoughts Stamp Set on a piece of Rich Razzleberry in White Stampin’ Emboss Powder and adhered the strip across the lower half of the card with SNAIL. My butterfly is from the Floral Wings Host Stamp Set and is stamped in Tempting Turquoise, Rich Razzleberry and Pear Pizzaz on Solar White 80lb. I used the Bold Butterfly Framelits to cut it out and adhered it to the card with a strip of Foam Tape. A little scattering of Pretty Pink Posh Sparkling Clear Sequins finishes off the card. I do love that butterfly and since it’s Photopolymer it’s nice and easy to stamp the three different colors. I hope that you enjoyed my card for this week’s Pals Paper Arts color challenge! Thank you for taking a little time out of your day to stop by and visit with me! Enjoy your Saturday my friends! 🙂

Freshly Made Sketches 199

Hi there and happy Friday to you! Yes, it was another nice day yesterday and work wasn’t too bad either! After work I stopped home for a bit and started my card for today before heading over to Scrap-A-Latte for the first night of my joint card class with Michael. He brought his dad so we went and had dinner, some pizza, before class. It was nice to get to meet his dad Joel, I now know where Michael gets his sense of humor from! Class was fun as usual and everyone enjoyed the projects! I’ll have mine posted tomorrow! Tonight we have the second night and then Michael has another baby book class there tomorrow. Sunday we will be at The Ink Pad and staying at Kim’s Saturday night! I really don’t want the Summer to end!

The card that I have for you today is for Freshly Made Sketches 199th challenge…

Freshly Made Sketches 199

I can’t believe that they will be at challenge 200 next week! That’s pretty cool! My card base for today is Neenah Solar White 110lb Card Stock. I stamped the bird from the Tim Holtz Bird Feather Stamp Set in Simon Says Stamp Fog Ink on the card. My pocket is made using the We R Memory Keepers Fuse Tool and a Simon Says Stamp Stamp Pocket. I sealed a piece of Smoky Slate in the bottom and then cut out three feathers from Crumb Cake with the Simon Says Stamp Feathers Dies. They are spattered with some Heidi Swapp Citron, Teal and White Color Shine Spray. I added them and a few Hazel & Ruby The Makery Green with Envy and Pretty Pink Posh Sparkling Clear Sequins to the pouch and sealed the top. A piece of Red Line Tape (Sticky Strip) behind the strip of Smoky Slate adheres it to the card. The greeting is a piece of Solar White cut out with the Simon Says Stamp You Craft Die and some Pear Pizzaz with the rest of the greeting from the Simon Says Stamp You Photopolymer Stamp Set heat embossed in Hero Arts White Embossing Powder. The left side is flagged and then I mounted it to the card with Foam Tape. I do love using the Fuse to make a shaker card, the goodies that you put inside move around really nicely and you can do some creative pockets too! I hope that you enjoyed my card for this week’s Freshly Made Sketches challenge! Thank you, as always, for coming by to see what I’m up to! Have yourself an awesome Friday! 🙂

OSAT Blog Hop – Back to School

OSAT Header

Hello everyone, happy Thursday to you! The weather here yesterday was again nice! Sunny and not too hot with a little shower in the evening. The shower did produce a double rainbow though!

Double Rainbow

Pretty cool huh?! Last night I was at Scrap-A-Latte with Michael prepping for tonight and tomorrow night’s classes. After we had some Chili’s for dinner and watched some TV. Today I’m participating in the sixth blog hop with a bunch of my friends from one of the Facebook groups that I belong to. It’s called One Stamp at a Time Cards and More. The focus this month is Back to School! If you have arrived here from Eva Bussom’s blog, welcome! My friend Eva always has some great projects, doesn’t she?! I have one card for you today so let’s get to it!

My card base is Neenah Solar White 110lb Card Stock and the entire front is covered in a piece of Crumb Cake. Next up is some Daffodil Delight and on top of that is a piece of Real Red that I embossed with the Lucky Starts Textured Impressions Embossing Folder. They are both adhered to the card at an angle with SNAIL. My library card and date stamp are from the Lawn Fawn Check This Out Photopolymer Stamp Set and are stamped in Memento Tuxedo Black. The greeting is from the Lawn Fawn My Lucky Charm Photopolymer Stamp Set and is also stamped in Memento Tuxedo Black. I adhered the library card with SNAIL and Fun Foam and the date stamp with Foam Tape. A few Studio Calico Wood Veneer Stars are randomly adhered with Ranger Multi-Matte Medium. I like the simplicity of the card, it’s a fun way to wish any student a great year at school!
