Welcome to my little corner of the vast God planned domain. I plan to share mostly my card projects here, you might even possible see some scrapping, quilt projects, and photography. Who knows I may even try other craft projects. Might even share a selection of little recipe cards I have collected over the past few years - scrapped, of course. There may even be some little things of greatness of my daily life. Every now and then, I might even vent!

Happy New Year

I spent Jan 1&2 making a few new cards. Need to get a few completed before I go back to work on the 5th. Oh my break is almost over. 

The first card was from SFF010215 and PPA234. SFF was a sketch challenge posted 1/2/15 and 
PPA was a color challenge posted 1/1/15.  I am a little disappointed in the way the colors turned out on my card. The "Best Wishes" is stamped in Wisteria Wonder but it looks gray. I layers the 3 colors of ribbon to accent and add some pop.

Stamp: Best Year Ever
Ink: Wisteria Wonder
Paper: Night of Navy, Wisteria Wonder, Whisper White & Shimmery Silver, scrap of Flirtatious DSP
Accessories: Night of Navy seam binding ribbon, Wisteria Wonder ruffled ribbon and Silver ribbon, a fishers border punch, 1 3/4 x 7/8 oval and scalloped oval punch, dimensionals, Wisteria Wonder marker

This above cards is a sketch from OWH245. I absolutely love their sketches and an going to try to make another box of cards for them again in 2015. Hopefully they will get in the mail in the next 4-5 months.

Stamp: Crazy About You (new for sale on 1/5/15)

Paper: Calypso Coral, Coastal Cabana, Whisper White & Best Year Ever DSP (new 2015)

This last card is also from OWH244. Another wonderful sketch. Always need cards for the SCS BRAK.

Stamp: Butterfly Basics (also new 2015)
Ink; Basic Brown, Calypso Coral, Coastal Cabana
Paper: Calypso Coral, Crushed Curry, Soft Suede, Whisper White & Best Year Ever DSP (new 2015)
