Happy May everyone! Well I AM moved in. The painters have left the new house. The boxes are SLOWLY getting unpacked. My craft room is somewhat unpacked…but not totally. I did have enough stuff unpacked so that I could stamp a card for this week’s Create with Connie and Mary Thursday’s Challenge. We have a cool color combo this week …
Boy…April is moving right along isn’t it! This month is just a blur for me with moving and everything. Since it is Thursday, it is time for another inspiration from Create with Connie and Mary. This week is a color combo (Island Indigo, Tempting Turquoise, Flirty Flamingo) and I must say…this was a bit of a challenge for me! When …

Boy…I didn’t think I was going to get any time to stamp this weekend but I had time for one quick, simple card. School is whooping me! I am working on a major course rewrite that has to go live summary (mid-May). Then there was a going to be a problem with getting it loaded into all the shell with …
Happy Thursday everyone! I have to say…the colors on my card today are definitely HAPPY!!!

Like I said…definitely HAPPY! I’m continuing on …
Boy do we have an interesting challenge for the SUO Challenge this time! The theme is ‘use your team colors’ for a card. Well if you know me, you know I live in Ohio…Xenia Ohio to be exact. But if you know where I grew up, you would know that is Pittsburgh Pennsylvania. Knowing that it would be easy to …
I wanted to do a little stamping this morning so I was checking out the inspiration challenge over on SCS. The website is called LEIF and I found this inspiration here. As soon as I saw this vase I though about the new What’s My Type? photopolymer set and figured it would just be so easy to do the triangular …
WOW…we have come to the end of Create with Connie and Mary Summer Collection 2014! It’s been all about NEW items in the new Stampin’ Up! catalog and we have had such fun creating for you! Even though the collection is over, since all the project featured items in the NEW catalog…these ideas are good ALL YEAR LONG. So…it’s not …
This morning I decided to stop by the Technique Challenge on SCS just to see what it was. I usually don’t play along with that one but for some reason this really caught my eye. You were to use and embossing folder then color on it. Now this isn’t the same as adding color to the embossing folder then embossing. …
Oh…I just love FUN CAS challenges! The CAS challenge on SCS is to case a card by Karen Dunbrook. I just LOVE her work and this is the card I cased. I changed how I did the circle background, different colors, different flower…well I guess you could say I kept the overall look of the card! I think this would …
Oh…this was one of the sets in the new catalog that I just couldn’t WAIT to get my hands on. What hooked me on Stampin’ Up! way back in the beginning of time (like almost 15 years ago) was two-step stamping and this set is two-step stamping to PERFECTION!!! It is a photopolymer so lining things up – PIECE OF …
