Sweet Lullaby

Hello Again, Stamping Friends!
I hope you were able to get in a little creative time this past weekend.  I was a bit busy, but I did get up this morning and make this newest baby card.  A best friend is a new "GiGi" and I was blessed to go today and visit her and her kids and their new baby.  My goodness....Evelyn is a true beauty.    I made this card especially for her to welcome her earthside.  Love you, sweet Evelyn and your mommy and daddy too!

Anyway...back to the card.  ;)

So, I took the sketch challenge over at The Paper Players and used the new Baby's First Framelits for my focal image.  These framelits coordinate with the new Something For Baby stamp set
and can be purchased in bundled form at a 15% discount.  Great deal!  I also used the new Lullaby DSP as well.  So, here is what I came up with for the challenge.  Hope you enjoy!
Happy Stamping,

CAS (Clean and Simple) is BeYouTiful

Hello Stamping Friends!

I'm going to share a clean and simple card sketch challenge with you today from the fine folks over at CAS(E) the Sketch!  This is my first time playing along with them and I encourage you to play too!  It's so much fun.  ;)  
For my card I was drawn in yet again by the All Abloom Designer Series Paper Stack.  You'd think by the last few blog posts that this was the only dsp I had in my stamp room, but you know that is FAR from the truth....All Abloom is just that much fun to play with, what else can I say?  ;-)  So, here we go! 
 Hope you enjoy!

Versatile Flowerpot DSP!

Hello Stamping Friends!
I have a super quick and easy card for you today using new SU Flowerpot DSP.  I absolutely love this new designer paper because it is so versatile.  Today's card is so simple, and on the masculine side, but other designs in the paper pack are full of vibrant color and beautifully floral!  So.  Much.  FUN!  I'm using two challenges today.   The sketch challenge over at Freshly Made Sketches and the monochromatic challenge over at The Paper Players.  I hope you take a little creative time this weekend and enjoy the art of paper crafting.  Happy Stamping!

Daffodil Birthday Wishes

Hello Again, Stamping Friends!  
Back again today with another sketch challenge from another new group called Sieze The Sketch.  (Love that name!)  So, because I already had my All Abloom paper stack out, and because I so love the Daffodil, Indigo, and Pool Party color palette, I designed this card for the sketch.  Oh, and the sweet little butterfly technique was simply stamping in Daffodil and outlining with an Indigo marker.  I hope you enjoy!
Happy Stampin',
