Stinkin' Cute "I Love You" Card

Hi Everyone!
Hope you all are having a wonderful weekend!  It's been a warmer than usual weekend, and I'm not complaining.  Hoping to head out in a few and enjoy the rest of the day.  

I went onto my blog this morning to find out that I was a "Top Pick" over at the their Sketch and Color Challenge #32.  How exciting!  I'm looking forward to joining more of their challenges! 

Here's another card I made using the "Woodland Cuties" Stamp Set (Your Next Stamp). 

I used Tim Holtz Distress Ink for the background, and a Molotow Marker to draw the hearts.

Here's a card I completed yesterday!

"Sweet Hello" Card

Hi Everyone,

Starting to clean up my mess of a craft area, as I want to start getting organized before Spring begins.....so much going on this year.  Trying to dedicate at least 15 minutes a day to organize supplies.  PINTEREST as always, has been helpful!  YouTube is a good friend too :)

I finally got around to using some of the supplies that I've been collecting over the last few weeks. I colored in all the adorable images from the "Woodland Cuties" stamp set (Your Next Stamp) using my ZIG brush pen markers and the Stella brush pen for some sparkle.  

I'm totally loving Your Next Stamp's stamp designs, and have already placed an order for my next set!  They also have a great bi-weekly challenge, so I'm entering into it!  

Here's a card I completed over the weekend, that I could use for a valentine, baby shower or a birthday boy!

Thanks for stopping by!

ICRCWIN01: Tic Tac Toe Challenge with a “Mandala” Twist

Hey Everyone!

I'm so excited for this challenge!  I've been a part of ICR since 2012, so being able to host a challenge is always a BIG deal to me.   Ash and the DTs we have on board this year are beyond talented, as you'll see!!!

Here is our challenge...

I've been recently coloring away in my adult coloring books, and fell in love with one specific page full of mandalas.  That is what I used for my card.  Here is my card...

I am using the top horizontal line 

BLING + RIBBON + STENCIL

Here is my card...

I used a Heidi Swapp stencil and my Tim Holtz distress inks for the background.  I then colored  and cut out a few mandalas, layered them at the top left corner, and trimmed off the edges.  There are 3 layers to the mandala.  I topped it off with some gold rhinestones.  

Hope you'll join us for this current challenge over at the INDIAN CRAFT ROOM! 

I also received an awesome present for Christmas from my hubby, but never got a chance to share it earlier!  My present was a pre-order for the Workbox 2.0 from the Original Scrapbox!!!  My aunt has one of these, and absolutely loves it...she and I had a conversation about it last Spring, and I'm pretty sure the hubby was taking notes!  THANKS BABE! :)

I've been eyeing this thing for years!  A place where I can stash my craft stuff, as it's piled up in a corner right now.  I also want to get everything as organized as possible, before the baby starts getting into it!  It'll arive in late spring or early summer...can't wait!!!

Long post! 

Thanks for stopping by!

A couple of years ago, I bought a stack of burlap for bridal shower centerpieces I created (will have to share a pic!) It's been sitting there for so long, that I was finally able to use it for this card.  I lightly went over it with white paint, and am realizing there is so much more I can do with it.  Hope to create a scrapbook page with it soon!

The eyelets on the corners kept the burlap from unweaving.  Instead of stamping a sentiment, I used a rub-on...
