We May Be Miles Apart.....

Wednesday, September 17, 2014
Hello and Happy Wednesday all my crafty friends!!  What a week so far, is it Friday yet?  I've been super busy and haven't been able to have any crafty time the last few days - boo!  But last week I was able to get my fingers inky and pulled out my new Mama Elephant stamp set....for the record can I just say how much I LOVE THESE IMAGES?!  They were so much fun to color and I had even more fun creating this scene!

 
I used my MFT Sunray Stencil to create the background....love this stencil....so easy to create a cute background!  The panel is popped up on dimensionals as well as the cutie patootie little girl and the butterfly.  I also added Ranger Glossy Accents to the flowers, turtle and butterfly.  I used my Wink of Stella pen to add some shimmer to the little dress.  I made two of these cards and will be sending them out to put a smile on a couple of really special ladies that I love dearly. :)
 
 
 
I have a ton of new Happy Mail from some of my favorite places...also don't forget it's getting close to the Pretty Cute Stamps September Release....and the new images are FABULOUS...can't wait to share what I'm working on with all of you!
 
Have a great rest of the day and I will be back soon with some more crafty goodness!!

Happy Anniversary Lawn Fawn Style

Saturday, September 13, 2014
Happy Saturday all my crafty friends!  I'm loving this weather here today in San Antonio....it's been in the upper 90's....today it's 65!  Sweater and cuddle weather for sure - enjoying it while I can!
 
At the beginning of the week I posted a little sneak peek on my Instagram and on my Flickr of the card I designed for my hubby for our Anniversary using Lawn Fawn's Love You S'More.....Love this set - you can do so much with it!  Needless to say he LOVED the card!  I love that it has a more masculine side with a little bit of softness to it.
 
 
A lot of layers going on here (which I LOVE) - it's my style!  I free-handed the grassy hills, since my other Lawn Fawn diecuts haven't arrived yet (but will soon - yay!) - but I think I did a pretty good job. :)   Everything is popped up on dimensionals - including the bottom two card layers - which gives it so much depth! This was such a treat to color with my Prismacolor Pencils!  I also used my white gel pen to add a little extra something to the bear and the squirrel.  Can't you almost smell the marshmallow roasting? :) 

 
Look at these!!! Aren't they gorgeous?!  A dozen red roses from my hubby delivered to me at work for our anniversary...I just adore them!!!  I now have them on my kitchen table and they smell divine!!!

 
I hope you all are having a fantastic weekend.....I just cleaned house and am about to go into my crafty room, do a little cleaning, pull out some of my new stamps and get to work!  I will be back in a few days....I designed some really fabby cards using some adorable Mama Elephant stamps!

Happy Wednesday....You Color My World

Wednesday, September 10, 2014
Hello all my Crafty Friends....Happy Wednesday!  I'm back after a wonderful 4 day weekend - great to have a little time off and get several card projects completed.   Here is a super cute card I designed using Pretty Cute Stamps.  I used two different sets on this design - Color My World and The Write Stuff.  I love these crayons and you can choose what faces (if any) you want to add!! :)
 
 
The globe was an afterthought....I was looking for a little something else to add and then it dawned on me "The Globe", I decided to stamp it and leave it uncolored....I love what it adds to the card! :) 
 
 Here is a little close up where you can see all the sparkle (I used my clear Wink of Stella pen) and all the dimension and layers. 
 
 
My Pretty Cute Stamps Design Team Happy Mail for September's Release has already arrived and OMG, they are fabulous!!  I can't wait to start showing you sneaky peeks of those!!!  You are going to love the new designs, they are fabulous! :)
 
I'll be back soon with lots more crafty goodness - I've gotten so much happy mail lately and I've been diving in and creating some really great stuff!  Have a great day!  :)

I used MFT Beautiful Baby for this card....love this set!!  There are so many cute stamps and I love being able to use the dies to cut everything out - easy peasy!  The Scallop and Circle die are from Reverse Confetti....lately this has been my go to die....so versatile! :)
 
Here's a close up where you can really see the Ranger Glossy Accents that I added...another item that I love to use!
