It's already Week 3! The color combination this week is soft and warm with neutral colors and some red. I also managed to use a lot of my scraps. I love when I can do that! I am just beginning to experiment with vellum and distressed inking as you can see below. I really enjoyed it and it's so refreshing to try something new and achieve a soft and warm look. <br />
<br />
Enjoy!<br />

Well, it is the second week of summer card camp and that means that there is a new color combination challenge. I really found this color combination to be rich, bold, and vibrant. These colors really spoke to me. I went out to Michael's craft store earlier this evening and found the stamp for only a dollar! It stamped beautifully! I was totally inspired by the saying and thought that the butterflies went right along with it. Here is my third card of camp and first of Week #2's color challenge. <br />
<br />
Enjoy!<br />

I'm posting Card #2 for this week's color challenge. It has been so fun being in this summer card camp. It's really getting me motivated to make some cards and challenging me to use colors that I wouldn't think would always go together. Boy was I wrong!! I hope you enjoy Card #2.<br />

<br />
Can you believe it?! I did a video! Super excited. The birthday card that I made was given to my best friend, Nicole. I love playing around with pink and black and I'm a huge fan of damasks. They are so classy. Don't you think? Anyways, I hope you enjoy the video. It took me about 8 takes. LOL.<br />
<br />
Hope you are having a fabulous evening! Leave me a comment and let me know what you think :)<br />

<br />
It's been soo long since I've posted on my blog. I decided to sign up for an Online Summer Card Camp and it's really inspiring me. I made my first card of summer camp today and I'm loving how it turned out. The color combination for today's card is beautiful and so appropriate for summer. Hope everyone is having a fantastic day.<br />
<br />
Enjoy!<br />

Happy Saturday!<br />
<br />
I have another card for you today and I'm entering it into a Peachy Keen Challenge. The challenge was to use a peachy keen face stamp with faux stitching or real sewing machine stitching. I chose to use the faux stitching. I used the Simply Charmed Cartridge for the puzzle pieces, Create a Critter Face Assortment, and a My Pink Stamper sentiment stamp, "Together Forever". ENJOY!<br />

<br />
I am entering another My Pink Stamper challenge. This time you had to make a card using "a feathered friend". I chose the baby chick from the Create a Critter cartridge which is still hands down my favorite cartridge of all. The challenge also suggested using the stamp set "Tweetie Hoo Puns" which is a Pink Stamper set. I didn't have this stamp set but I found the sentiment, "Sweet Chick" from the "Punny-licious" MPS set. I'm glad that worked out because I would not have received the "Tweetie Hoo Puns" stamp set in time even if I had ordered it...LOL doesn't mean I won't buy it in the future right?<br />
<br />
Hope you enjoy the card! Check out the gold stickles on the chicky's wings! Bling Bling<br />

<br />
It's been so beautiful here in Florida. We've had a lot of sunshine for the last week or so and I'm hoping that it will continue. It got me inspired to make a sunny card! Can you believe that the stamp on this card was only a $1 at Michaels? Pretty cool huh? Anyway I hope you enjoy the card and that it makes your day bright and sunny. <br />
<br />

<br />
Here is a card I made for Valentine's Day and I'm entering it into a My Pink Stamper challenge. The challenge was to make a card out of something that makes you happy and make it spring related. By the way, this is the first time I've EVER entered a challenge. I've always blog hopped and enjoyed looking at the challenges and now I think I'm ready to enter. I'm pretty new to blogging, (my blog is just a baby) and don't have many projects up. I'm crossing my fingers that I just might win a challenge my very first time.<br />

<br />
This is my first post on my new blog. I wanted you to know that my best friend Nicole hosted a wonderful Asian Dinner Party the other night. She is a fabulous entertainer, chef, and photographer. She called me up a month or so ago and asked me to make some invitations for her for her party. I quickly thought of the Pagoda cartridge and experimented with several of the images on it. I narrowed it down to the pagoda, fan, and kimono. Here are some pictures of how the invitations turned out.<br />
