The sun is out!! The sun is out!!! The snow is starting to melt and today we may even be able to go outside without bundling up from head to toe. In honor of this wonderful spring day I have a little something to share.
I hope you enjoy your day and I hope the weather is as delightful for you as it is for me.
Happy Friday. I know that we are seeing a lot of pink and red around town this week preparing for Valentine’s Day, so this should be a welcomed change. One of my friends posted that she loved this outfit for her daughter and she was going to be inspired and try to knit something like it, I took that challenge by making a card instead :)
And here is my card:
I mimicked the stripes and the texture and then the hair ribbon is represented by the bow, while the necklace is represented by the rhinestones on the moon. I love this stamp and the saying. “I love the Crescent Moon…” ;)
Now go see what Jimmi, Sherry and Christi have done with this inspiration.
Hi all. It’s the second Wednesday and that means that it is time for the Color Challenge over at the InStyle Stamps Blog.
Here is my project:
I actually used the colors and the layout from the inspiration piece:
Wont you please play along with us? Show us what you have created using these colors and be sure to leave a link on the InStyle Stamps blog post.
It is my month to host the Friday Fun Challenges, I know I am late today I have just been super busy trying to catch up with everything after CHA. My challenge to everyone today was to make a cleavage card, either a card with boobies/bra or just a criss-cross fold pattern on it. If you know me you know that I am not shy about my boobies, I mean I don’t stick them in your face, but I like them and am pretty happy with them and don’t mind talking about them. While we were out one evening in LA I happened to be sitting at a table of wonderfully creative people, many from Unity and a few other companies as well. I was having a particularly difficult wardrobe problem most of the week it seemed. My new bras were not cooperating with my tops and I seemed to be flashing everyone even when I didn’t mean to do it. As I was explaining my boobie/bra issues to the girls Tommy heard the word boobie and perked right up. He told me if I showed him what I got he knew where all the stamps were stashed ;) Well Tommy this FFC is dedicated to you. You get to see not only what I got but Jimmi, Sherry and Christi too ;)
Please forgive me for the elementary look to my card. I had to go with what supplies I had on hand at the booth which were not very many. My circles are probably not completely even, but that’s because I actually HAND cut them after tracing circles using the bottom of a cup. Yeah, I went Old school. So here is my card, enjoy.
Oh, and as you can see, in the little bit of free time I had on Tuesday we did a little shopping in an effort to remedy my bra issues in the future.
Howdy all! I should be on a plane on my way back home from Los Angeles right now as long as there are no weather delays. Phew, it has been a crazy couple of days at CHA, we met a lot of great people and InStyle Stamps will be coming to many stores across the country. If you don’t see them at your local store in the next couple of weeks ask them to give us a call :)
Now let’s take a look at the February sketch.
Sample will be coming from me once I get home, celebrate a couple of 5th Birthdays and settle back into my craft room. I hope you are all having fun in the snow.

**Note: Because I was getting ready for CHA I totally flaked on the FFC this week. I made a card, but I can’t show it to you until next week, I hope it’s worth waiting ;) Make sure to check out what Jimmi, Sherry and Christi have prepared to get you in the mood for spring.
This week Jimmi sent us some supplies for our challenge.
And this is what I came up with. I have to admit I had a difficult time with the image, so this is not my best card, but I tried.
Check out what the other Friday Fun Chicks have done with their kits.
