Stampin' Up Card Club and Spring Fling Cards!

Here are our Stampin' Up Club Cards from the last few months..... have things been crazy busy here?? YES! Is there any reason why I haven't posted them? Not really, but it's been really busy! :)

Here goes!


This card uses the new Sizzlits Paper Doily die cut. Definitely needs regular paper, not card stock, and a little know-how... but it's SO pretty! LOVE those edgers!


I'm not so much a fan of green, but I like this card - so springy in feel - but useful for almost any occasion!


LOVE this technique!!! You wouldn't imagine this would work out so well... but it really does! White Craft Ink, and a Versamark Marker! :)


Simple Elegance here... love the look of the embossed emblem!!

These are the cards from our Spring Fling. We used only one stamp set the entire night, and made 8 cards (or more as you wanted). I made two of the first one - love the pink and green!
It was definitely a "Mixed Bunch" night! We used this stamp set exclusively, and the Blossom punch that coordinates with it.

How cute is this?? We stamped the flower, cut off two "leaves" and watercolored the embossed area of flowers.






I really like this! Any color scheme - any occasion... NICE!


This one is a brown cardstock embossed with Iridescent Ice... it really sparkles on the brown paper! Everyone was definitely "Wow-ing" over this one!


LOVE this card! Island Indigo and white. SO SO pretty! I had more than one favorite from this night of cardmaking! This one was a favorite for sure!

Bridal Shower Place Cards

Photobucket

This is a picture of MOST of the place cards I made for a very special Bridal Shower! I've never met the bride, but was given lots of details about her.

I'm told these were met with wild enthusiasm!!! :) I had a GREAT time making them!

Happy Easter



I bought this stamp on our most recent trip to Tennessee ~ Yay for Spring Break trips!

I never seem to get tired of looking at the mountains, mountain streams, and waterfalls.....

There's also an awesome scrapbook shop where we stay, and two on the trip over. I put this together, and sent it to Mom and Dad for Easter!

Happy Spring!

The 2012 Christmas Card Challenge! April 2012



Well, I can't say I'm really thrilled with the response I've had with my 2012 Christmas Card Challenge. I've taken part in these in the past, and had a blast.... so I thought it would be a GREAT idea to do one myself. I planned out the themes for each month, and put together prizes for each month so when people participated, they would have 6 more cards ready for this coming Christmas, AND some nice things to add to their scrap stash. BUT with the exception of January, no one has participated!

With all that said, (just had to vent)... I am NOT stopping this right as it's beginning. SO.... here goes.

The theme for April is: GREEN!
Since Spring is here so early, and I love the Spring so much since everything is blooming and starting over for another year of growing, our theme this month is Green! OK, so an all green card will be boring, so you can use white, and one other (SMALL) accent color. :)

Click HERE for the original post including the (very easy and straightforward) rules to the Challenge.

Get your cards made, and entered into the Linky below by the 20th!!! Can't wait to see what you've made! Put mine to shame, I'm sure!

Here are my cards for this month.
