Monster Bash!

 

Hi Friends!

It's a gorgeous fall day here in NW Ohio!  Just a
perfect fall day!  I plan to enjoy more of this weather
by taking a bike ride after dinner.  But, first
I want to share with you a card I made for the
challenge over at Dynamic Duos! 

Here are the two colors we were to follow...
 
 
I had fun coloring those little monsters!  You ever
feel like that after a hard day at work?!:-)  I just had
to buy this stamp because one of the little monsters
is a nurse!  She's certainly not a monster, but I
plan to give this fun Halloween card to one of my
co-workers.  Well, it's time for dinner.  I hope
you are enjoying your Sunday evening!  Thanks
for dropping by today!  Take care, hugs!

Friend...


Hi Friends!

Happy Friday to you!  How are you doing on this
fine Friday?!  As you may know by now, my
favorite challenge is over at The Shabby Tea Room!

Here is the sweet beautiful photo we were to
follow this week...


For the challenge we were to follow the colors
in the photo and include lace, fabric, and a button.
Love that pink and aqua color!  Also, I noted the
polka dots, pink stripes, spools of thread, and pearls!
Lots of yummy shabby goodies in this photo!  So I
went to work with some stamps from Stampin' Up
for the sewing theme.  I used muslin fabric and all
the goodies that I just stated above. I used floss and
wound it around the stamped spool.  A needle was
added.  Lace, ribbon, and buttons to finish off the card. 

And, here is the inside of the card...
 
Hope you are having a fab creative day!  Thanks
so much for dropping by today!  Take care and enjoy
your weekend!

Happy Birthday!

Hi Again!

This is my second post for the day.  I'm busy
lately making birthday cards for September for
friends.  I looked over at Inspired by Stamping
challenge blog and was inspired to make this
birthday card for a co-worker. 

Here is the lovely inspiration photo we were
to follow...




I had some Martha Stewart sunflowers in my
stash and went to work on this card.  I added a
brown brad to the center flower.  Lace, leaves,
sentiment, and ribbon added to finish the
card. 

Ok, I think I'm going to enjoy this perfect
weather by enjoying a nice hot cup of tea
out on the deck.  Hope you enjoy your
evening!  Thanks for dropping by!  Take
care, hugs!

60th Birthday!


Hi Friends!

How are you on this lovely Sunday afternoon?  I
just want to share with you a card I made for a
friend who will be having a milestone birthday
this month!  She will hit the big "60"!  But, she
is a doll, so sweet and lovely!  One would never
know that she is turning 60. 

I recently purchased some new stamps from
Inspired by Stamping, so I used that sweet
cupcake and colored it with my SU pencils.
I also added glitter adhesive for the frosting.
A couple of punches were used, yummy
ribbon, and gems to finish off the card. 

Whatever you do today I hope you enjoy!
Thank you for stopping by today!  Take care,
hugs!
