Randomness for the day...

I was off work today (thanks to MLK Day!) and decided to post some of my recent projects. This little card was made using acetate and some carefully placed bazzill cardstock. The stamp is from Stamping Bella - Wreathabella. I've really gotten into the acetate cards lately but failed to take pictures of the others before I gave them out! This particular card was made for a Christmas Card Swap on Split Coast Stampers. This group is so much fun and has really offered a lot of wonderful ideas. It was a bit of a challenge to get used to maneuvering around the site but now that I know what I'm doing, it's a breeze! If you're looking for an inspiring group, I highly recommend it. Anywho, the stamp was colored in using Copic Sketch markers. I'm still getting used to using these and it's been quite a challenge. I've been trying to get some "directions" from Katie Cotton's blog. She does some absolutely fabulous things using copics!



This little card was one of the Christmas Cards I sent out this year. I had so much fun with this and loved using my new stamp from Stampabilities - Decorated Dog House. Sorry for the poor image quality but I took this picture using my cell phone. My Christmas cards were late this year so I had to get it in the mail the same day LOL.

I'll post some more stuff later. I don't have pictures of the projects I did this weekend while I was at Scrapbook Creations but I will soon.


I have a ton of swaps going on right now between Split Coast Stampers and Fiskateers and have plenty of work to do! I am also an assistant organizer on Greenville Scrappers and Stampers but we have been having a lot of trouble keeping the group active. There are a lot of things going on with that group that I have some issues with and am trying to promote a new group I started on Yahoo! Groups called Carolina Scrappers. I am hoping to get this group up and running very soon and would love to have tons of members!

Until next time .... happy crafting!

Fun with Artist Trading Cards!

Hello again! Things have been crazy as always and I've neglected my poor blog. Just wanted to share a little ATC project with you today. These were made for a swap in Fancy Paper Crafters . The swap theme was Spring ATCs. I love all the flowers and butterflies that come out in spring so naturally, this is what I was going to do for my ATC. With the designer paper that I chose, I had so many color options! I looked through my cardstock to see what I had in my stash (I'm on a mission to use my stash rather buy anything!) that would match and came up with this coral/pinky color. I used a Stampin Up punch for the butterfly. The flower center is a simple jeweled brad by Recollections. The jewels on the butterfly are by Nicole's Design (I think!). I couldn't find my flower punches so I used my spellbinder dies and embossed them. Pretty easy peasy right :). Thanks for stopping by today!! Have a crafty day!

Hello! Thanks for stopping by my little spot of craftiness. I’m very excited to be a part of the December Fan Club Blog Hop for Paper Makeup Stamps . If you’ve been hopping along today, then you probably got here from Simonne Clay’s blog SemSee’s Sparkly Scribblings . If you haven’t stopped by her place yet, be sure to do so as her creations are amazing!! If you’ve gotten lost along the way, just take a peek at the listing below to get back on track. Without further ado, here’s my little creation for Paper Makeup Stamps … This was so much fun to create! The sentiment is of course by Paper Makeup Stamps and is the May the Spirit of Christmas Wordart . I absolutely love this sentiment! This will surely be one of my “go to” stamps this year for my Christmas cards. Other details of this card … I used the Stampin’ Up Snowfall Printed Window Sheets for the base of my card. For my layers of cardstock, I used Bazzill Dotted Swiss Cardstock . I’ve been turning to this cardstock a lot lately ...

Cards Anyone?

Hey y'all! Back at ya today with some cards I recently made for a class at my local AC Moore. This class was in January and we had such a great time! This was a beginning card class so there isn't a ton of techniques in these. Hope you like them! I think my fav is the Happy Birthday card using the sunburst technique. I've seen so many of these lately and wanted to try my hand at making one. Thanks for stopping by today :). Have a crafty day!
