Creative Moments Challenge #41 - Anything Goes/SPRING

Happy Hump Day!  It's a new challenge today at Creative Moments and it's Anything Goes/SPRING!  Nothing quite says spring to me like a wedding, so I picked this gorgeous Bella Bride Sassy digi to use for my card.  I chose this color palette after a friend chose blue and white for her upcoming wedding. I think it's so fun and different.


I think my favorite part is the stones on her dress.


You've got two weeks to play along with our Anything Goes/Spring challenge!  Hope to have you join us.  Thanks so much for looking and happy crafting!  Laters!

Christmas Inspiration

Christmas in April?  I've been trying to put together a Christmas card here and there, and I've managed to get another one done!  I was really inspired by the Tis The Season Challenge #14 photo, here's what they picked this challenge:


I instantly knew I wanted to create a holiday window from the inside of the house, where you could see the inside decoration and also see the wintery outside.  Here's what I came up with:


I like that you can see the snow outside, in person it's glittery but you can't really tell in the photos.


The bling on the valance represents Christmas lights hanging across the window indoors.

Just two challenges today:

Thanks so much for looking and happy crafting!  I'm off to get some rest I'm exhausted!  Laters!

Easter Jubilee - Card

This is the first part of a two-project set I made, a card and an coordinating gift basket.  I made the basket first and then made the card to match it.


I put a ton of details into this card.  Die cut ovals and flowers, border punches, ribbon and LOTS of bling.  I loooove my bling.


The puppy is my favorite part.  Isn't he precious?

Unity Friends With Flair!

Happy Friday!  I've FINALLY gotten a card made in time for Unity Friends With Flair YAY!  I've been trying for a few weeks now and haven't made it.  Here's what I created:


Isn't she adorable?  I used one of my newest stamps, Sabrina, to make this card.  I love how versatile it is.  I'm not sure how much it comes across in the photo, but the embossed backgrounds are also shimmery.  You know me and glitter! :)

Thanks so much for looking and happy crafting.  Laters!!

Artistic Experiment

I'm always seeing people make cards without stamps, or challenges sponsoring such things, and I always think to myself, I can't do that!!  I was playing with new dies though and stopped and thought, I CAN do it!  I can make a card without stamps.  So I made a crapload of diecuts and this is what I came up with.  I'm actually really happy with it.


Thanks so much for looking everyone and happy crafting.  Laters!!

Have A Sweet Easter

Doesn't Easter make you wanna eat chocolate?  And jelly beans?  And more chocolate?  I've been seeing jelly beans in my sleep the past couple of days with all the Easter crafts I've been making!  I wanted to do something kind of simple so that I could add a pile of Easter cards to my OWH donation box.  I did it without sparkles and glitter too, which is always a challenge for me!


Isn't this bunny just the sweetest??  I'm going to be using him on another card very soon.

Bunnies And Eggs

Happy Almost Easter!  I'm loooooving the spring weather (and IGNORING the fact that we're getting SNOW tomorrow!) and making lots of art lately.  I'm still making Easter cards even though it's less than a week away.  I've gotten some new stamps recently and I wanted to use them to make a card.


I just love this bunny.  Especially the expression on her face.


Close up of the Easter tag :)
