Stamp Time Somewhere

#TGIF Challenge 22! Re-Mix Time, it's a Birthday Sketch!

 Hey, Hey!!! Happy Friday, friends!!!! 

 One of my favorite parts of stamping is being able to create special cards for the most special people in my life. This card was perfect for the little guy it went to, partly because I had a great challenge to work with!

(If you want to play along and create a card yourself, click on the pic above.)

 I chose to Re-mix the sketch and inspiration challenges this month:

A great stamp set and color combo really set this card for me!

  Do you love that fun little touch of the pom-pom on his hat? It's just one little ball from the Real Red Pom Pom trim in the Holiday Catalog.

Fancy Friday for Fall!

 Welcome back to Fancy Friday! We thought this month we could keep it kind of simple - FALL. There is so much to create for Fall. I just wish it would start feeling like Fall here in the desert. It's been near or at 100 the last few days!

 I'm hosting my Annual Fall Stamping Event tomorrow and the temps are going to make it hard to get in the Holiday spirit, but hopefully the projects will. This is one of the projects we are making tomorrow and I LOVE IT!!! What do YOU think?

 I am so in love with this color combo of Pool Party, Calypso Coral and GOLD!!! I felt it would be a perfect little touch on a shelf or table added in with the other fall decor. It's quick, easy and cute - what could be better?

Head on over to my Fancy girl friend the fabulous Mrs. Jennifer Timko and check our her fancy take on this month's challenge!

Thanks so much for stopping by...

#TGIF Challenges 21 - It's BIRTHDAY Time!

 Hey, Hey!!! Happy Friday, friends!!!! 

 It seems as though no matter how many birthday cards I make ahead, I always seem to need one at the last minute. Not to mention, this time I needed one for my DAD, so it HAD to be special. I was SO happy to see THIS challenge!

(If you want to play along and create a card yourself, click on the pic above.)

 I realized after I gave it to him I realized that the front didn't specifically say, "Happy Birthday", but I think it still worked:

 There are so many great ways to use the Guy Greetings Set - it's super versatile!

TGIF Challenge #20 Great Card Sketch Challenge

 Hey, Hey!!! Happy Friday, friends!!!! Do you ever have one of those weeks where it's just not what you imagined it would be? That's been my week. For the first time in 11 years, I have no kids at home during the day! (YAY ME!!!) I planned on doing NOTHING - HA HA HA HA! It has been one of the craziest, busiest weeks! 2 weeks ago I was so far ahead, and now I am so far behind I can't even see my own tail! I had my project done for this last week, but here I sit at the last minute typing this up!!!

(If you want to play along and create a card yourself, click on the pic above.)

 Here is the last of my cards that I created for one of the wonderful Police families here in Las Vegas that lost their husband and Daddy last year. It was truly an honor to create these cards. I hope they realize how much love was put in to them.

 Once I started playing with the sketch, I loved how many layers I could add! It's going to a precious baby girl, so I hope that it had just the right touches.

OSAT Blog Hop - Designer's Choice

 

 Ta-Dah! I'm excited to be joining this great Blog-Hop team for a fun, monthly hop! This month's theme is a "Designer's Choice" and the only guideline set was to create a project and a card! 

 It's STILL in the 100s here and I am ready for some September weather. It looks like I will have to wait 2 more weeks or so according to the extended forecast.... blehhhhh....

 So to get me in to the Autumn mood anyhow (take THAT weather!) I decided to combine two great sets from the Stampin' Up! Holiday catalog, Acorny Thank You and Among the Branches....

 I love the crispness of the Whisper White, Kraft and Embossed Gold...

I can't seem to get over Calypso Coral, Gold and Pool Party together! TIP: To get a little more depth to these, I inked the solid bottom part of the acorn and stamped it on scrap paper first, then stamped it on Whisper White without re-inking to give me a lighter shade, then the patterned top pieces I stamped like normal!

Those crinkled up circles under the acorns are actually from the Sketched Dots Tag A Bag Gift Bags. TIP: To easily punch out the glassine paper these are made with, slide a piece of scrap cardstock inside the bag and punch away!

 

 

 Don't miss opportunities to add texture! TIP: I simply pulled the boxes apart at the seam and ran them through the Big Shot with the AWESOME, "have to have it" Woodland embossing folder and then glued them back together.

 This fun little trio of embellished Mini Treat Boxes just HAD to have a coordinating card, right?

 This was such a fun ensemble to put together, and I hope that you enjoyed it, maybe even found some inspiration in it somewhere.

 Thanks for stopping by, I hope you enjoy the rest of the Hop. Your next stop is Terri Takashige!
