Fall back...

Once again, I am falling back to use a basic design. This type of card is so easy to mass produce and can be changed up for any occasion, any season. Today I used the Greenhouse Gala paper, and the Friends never fade stampset. Add some ribbon, and there you go...a quick, impressive (even if I do say so myself) card.

Today is a lovely sunny day....great day to hang out a load of clothes...if only my washing machine hadn't picked today to stop working. It was a good old machine, and I guess in terms of dog years, she did put in a useful life! Why did she have to go with a full load of jeans, and full of water? She washes, she just doesn't spin and drain!!!!

Today and tomorrow are busy days for me,I am heading to my crafting space, spending a couple of hours organizing...then I am starting to create the projects for:

1. Stampers Club
2. Create for the Cure
3. Christmas Stamp a stack

Over the next week I will have lots to share as I am finalizing the details for the create for a cure.

Have a fantastic day....

What a fun weekend...

We held our first "Friday Knight" stamping event...and what fun...and best of all (for me) I got tons done! Keep watch for future dates. We chatted, my punches and stampsets were out, there were some inspiration sheets around, and we created tons of stuff.

The card I am showing today was totally inspired by Jen. It is amazing by just changing up the colours, adding in a layer of marina mist, you have a very versatile and pretty card. The base is crumb cake, then I stamped the flowers from "Friends never fade" in cherry cobbler. I think I may make a set of these cards, using different colours and sentiments. Wrap them up in a cello bag, and it would make a lovely hostess gift!

Thanks for stopping by today. Wish I were still in bed. Saturday night we partied at my Niece's stag and doe till 4am...I am too old for that kind of craziness...but boy was it fun! This is the first party as we get ready to celebrate Kaitlan and Gerrit's wedding in Jamaica! We are so happy for them both, and what a fun time we will have in Jamaica!

Enjoy your week.

Is there too much going on here???

Wow, another hot, hot, hot day. I actually cranked up the air conditioning and spent the afternoon inside my little tin box (trailer) and made some cards. The cards were inspired by Shari Winterstein, and the box was made by following this VIDEO! Once I had everything punched out, I wonder if there isn't too much Poppy Parade? This is just my first stab at this project, and I may use softer colours next time.

The box is so easy, and uses just one piece of paper. I was able to get 6 cards, with layers inside. I think these will make nice little gifts to have on hand.

It is getting a little cooler now, so before I put the finishing touches on the cards, I actually headed to the beach. Watching the sunset after a hot, humid day, is the perfect ending to a hot day!

If it is as hot tomorrow as today, I think I may stay inside and play again!!!

Thanks for waiting for me...I went to the beach from 530-730...fantastic way to end the day!
