Time Out: You're My Person

I'm back for a reminder post for the current challenge over at Time Out!  Just in time for Valentine's Day we have this fun inspiration photo for you to play along with!  I loved that cake and I hard the perfect dies to be inspired by it for the challenge. This card is most definitely going to my hubby.

For Unto Us a Child is Born

My cousin, Sandie, is a guest designer over at Watercooler Wednesdays, and their challenge is to make a card for Holidays Around the World. I'm trying hard to get ahead on my Christmas cards for this year and so I decided to have a play along at the challenge. And to use those Copics I just bought too. Couldn't bring myself to make more than one of these cards but am pleased with how it turned out!

Happy creating friends!  Going ahead and posting this right after I posted another card as the challenge is up soon!

Thank You Very Much

Happy Sunday friends...popping in with a very quick card to share for the current CAS(E) this Sketch challenge.   A little ink masking with Distress Oxides, add a sentiment and we're off!  Love when a card quickly comes together.

Hope your week goes well!  We're working on staying warm here...it is freezing out!  And crossing our fingers that the snow stays away so that the kids can go to their first show choir competition (the first two have been snowed out!).

Merry Christmas

The middle of the week is here....and I hope it is a great one for all of you!  I'm traveling this week for work from Tuesday through Friday and am looking forward to the weekend.  I had it my head that I wanted to make some buffalo plaid Christmas cards.  So off I went...these are being added into the stash for December. My goal this year is to work ahead on birthday and Christmas cards.  Wish me luck!

I'll be back tomorrow with a card for Time Out!

With Sympathy

Hi there...back with another card to share today!  I have no sympathy cards in my stash so I knew I needed to change that...this time of year I seem to always need them.  I was looking around for a challenge to play along and the Inkspirational challenge was the perfect one.  I did try to color those flowers in, but let's just say...that wasn't a success

Happy creating friends!

Yay!

Happy Sunday friends! We've had another snowy weekend like much of the US and that meant a weekend at home (no show choir...).  So today was a morning of craftiness and yesterday was a day of binge watching a TV series.  I'm a happy girl when I get to craft!

So here's my first card so share (I'll have a few more this week!).  I recently took the plunge and purchased Copics.  I know I won't get crazy coloring but felt the craving for wanting to color a bit....so this little giraffe is colored and this card will go in the mail to my niece whose birthday comes up in early February.

You can see my loose interpretation of the sketch over at CAS(E) this Sketch.  You all know how much I love leaf stamps so it took everything in me not to make my card very literal to the sketch!

Okay...off to watch playoff football now!
