Well, this is it for me for right now!  I urge you to please say a little prayer for all of those that were part of the horrific Elementary school shooting in Connecticut and their families. I saddens me that someone would just shoot these little babes! I have a daughter in 2nd grade and I can only imagine what the parents who lost their child today are going through!

Have a blessed and safe weekend!

Hello and happy Monday evening sweet stamping friends. I have a card to share with you all tonight that I've made using the Chickadee Ornament stamp set by Our Daily Bread Designs.  If you have a chance have a look and let me know what you think. To be honest, this card came together so very quickly, that it totally would be a card you could mass produce. Oh, and the best part, it is pretty flat and can be mailed in a regular envelope :D:D

See for yourself

Recipe:

Paper: PTI White, Recollections corrugated card

Stamps:  ODBD Chickadee Ornament

Ink: Memento Rich Coca, Tim Holtz Distressing Ink Broken China

Accessories: Spellbinders Standard Circles Large, Labels 25, Cheery Lynn Designs French Pastry doily die, ZVA Creative pearl flourish, white poinsettia (from Michael's $1.50 bin) white lace, mini half pearl trim

I really like how this one came out. What do you think?

Thanks so much for taking the time to come to visit. I truly appreciate each and every one of you.

Have a blessed Thanksgiving and if you are traveling, be safe!!

Hugs,

It's a Fall card!

Hello and happy Monday stamping friends!  The other day I had some time to stamp a quick card and this is what came out. For this one I've used one of the October Release stamp sets by Our Daily Bread Designs which is called "Pumpkin Wreath" and in combination with some older Basic Grey paper called Pyrus, that has some pretty Fall colors I came up with this

Our God

Recipe:

Paper:  PTI Rustic Cream, Ripe Avocado, Recollections Kraft, Basic Grey Pyrus

Stamps: ODBD Pumpkin Wreath

Ink: Memento Rich Cocoa, Tim Holtz Distressing Ink  Tea Dye and Vintage Photo

Accessories: Cheery Lynn Designs French Pastry doily die, Fanciful Flourish, Spellbinders Labels 8, Toffee colored seam binding, cotton crochet lace in cream, harvest gold colored lace, loop trim, Memory Box Nestled Bird die, Mulberry sprig

Size: 5.5" x 5.5"


What do you think? Isn't this Basic Grey paper not perfect for a Fall card?

Well, this is it for me. Gotta run and get my little one from school. I wonder how the first day of school went after being home for 3 weeks. :D  She did not want to go to school this morning. ;D

Thanks so much for stopping by. It is always a joy to read your comments.

Have a blessed and super creative day!

Hugs,

Well, hello there!

Hello and good Wednesday morning my blogging friends! It has been a while, but I have a fun little post to share with you all today.  I have been able to craft for a few minutes here in there with lots of breaks due to my shoulder/arm still giving me lots of pain, but I managed to finish this very simple project. I've used all Our Daily Bread Designs stamps and with these fabulous bookmark stamps from this month' release it was easy as can be.

Recipe:

 

Paper:  PTI White, Recollections Kraft, Kraft paper sacks (bought at Michael's, they are the smaller ones 3 1/2" x 6 3/4" and can be found in their gift wrapping section) BoBunny Country Garden Collection

 

Stamps: ODBD Bookmark Trees, Bookmark Eagle, Bookmark Birds, Bookmark Verses and an older set Flourished Verses

 

Ink: Memento Rich Cocoa, VersaFine Onyx Black, Tim Holtz Ditressing Ink Tea Dye

 

Accessories:  Spellbinders for Our Daily Bread Designs Bookmark Dies, Spellbinders Labels 18, seam binding, Cheery Lynn Designs Fanciful Flourish, Prima flowers, felt bird, Binder ring

 

See, very simple! I had this idea in my head as my girls both read a lot and always loose their bookmarks. My little one brings home school library books every week and they always have those library cards in the back of them, so I thought if I create a pocket/bag for the bookmark and tuck the bookmark in it, chances are they will not as easily get lost. Well, I won't be able to temporarily attach these right here to the library books, but all of those books we buy from Scholastic, I can easily add some removable double sided tape to the back of the pocket and adhere it to inside cover of the books my  "TT" is reading or I just leave them bound together with the ring and put them in a little basket next to her reading chair, that way everything can be at her little fingers touch.

 

Well, this is it for me for today! Thanks so much for stopping by. I know I have been a bad blogging friend, but this injury does not allow me to type for long periods of time. I can still only do 10 minutes here and there. This post took forever to type ;D.  So, please, accept my apology, just as soon as I can handle it I will be back.

 

Hugs and blessings,
