Rosette Goof Ups...

turned out pretty! well, at least I think so :)
The intent was to be part of the Rosette Christmas tree shown on the Close To my Heart Holiday brochere. I ended up putting the rosette together with the decorative side on the inside glued...bahhhhhh
I wanted to do a pre run with different papers before cutting the intended CLMH ones. I goofed not just once, but twice and I definately burned my fingers with the HOT GLUE!
I added a few sequins and a pretty dimensional flower sticker by K C & Co. that was in my stash to each of them and a tulle hanger with a bow.
Here's the result :) thanks for looking

This cute Halloween card is totally inspired from Mary at CardzTV

I used additional CardzTv stamp sets , Trick or Treat and Oct 31st. The striped paper is from a Cloud 9 Design seasonal pack that I had in my stash from last year or even prior to that.

Martha Stewart's dripping gooo punch of course and the cricut carts Mary used as well.

I cut the spider web border with my Silhouette and it was a cut from Miss Kate Cuttables.

thanks for looking and Happy Halloween!

This is a card I put together based on this one that I found on Pinterest. The senitiment on the front is computer generated. The patterned paper is My Minds Eye Meadow Lark. I found the gems at Hobby Lobby and are from the Paper Studio Gemstones #445353 and the heart gem is from variety pack #949750. The piece of black satin ribbon is from my stash as well as the cardstock(110lb). The  scalloped edge is done with We R Memory Keepers Doily 2 Edge Punch.
The inside sentiments were stamped using a Studio G stamp for Happy Wedding Day and Congratulations is from Lil' Inker Designs.

Happy St. Patrick's Day

this was a freebie at Bugaboo Digital Stamps Smile so adorable an just perfect for card making. I colored him with Copic markers and a dab of gold on his hat.

I used my circle spellbinders to cut and emboss,then I used CCR to cut the scallop circle mat. The digi is up on one thickness of foam tape. The tab/banner comes from the Artiste cartridge. My sentiment stamps on the inside  comes from The Stamps of Life.

All of the paper and cardstock is from my stash.

Happy St. Patrick's Day!!!

I saw this card HERE in the March issue of CARDS on pg. 18, and had to make for my stash! This little fella is so adorable.   Lawn Fawn is where the paper and the stamp set comes from.

I cut the speech bubbles from Cricut basic and shapes included with my E2 and CCR. The sentiments are stamped using a Birthday greetings set from Hot Off the Press I picked up at AC Moore for $1.00!!!! that was a great haul :)

ribbons and embroidery thread and buttons are from my stash.

Oh and I got to use my new personalized stamp from Stamps{of} Life

For Fun

I saw this cute little stamp set on My Favorite Things Blog that I subscribe to and I JUST had to get it!! My sister says this ALL THE TIME :) I colored her in with my copics and then paper pieced her top and pants. The papers are from my Club Scrap stash.. I love their cardstock! The little banner for the sentiment is hand cut, and the buttons and gems are stash also. I cut her using a spellbinder die and inked with Tim Holtz Antique Linen Distress ink. She is mounted on 1 and 2 thickness of 3M foam mounting tape.

It was fun playing with some old time crafty items :)
