My Pink Stamper Color Challenge

Here is my card for the color challenge at My Pink Stamper. The challenge is to use pink, green, and black, along with any Cricut die cut. I used Doodlecharms to cut the stars at 1 1/2 inches, then cut the shadow out of black. I embossed the black background with the Cuttlebug embossing folder. I sanded ( I just use an emery board for this!) the background to emphasize the words a bit. It almost looks like a chalkboard when it's finished. I like the look. It may be a little hard to see in the photo, but I added a strip of pink glitter behind the stars.
Paper dimensions: Black: 3 3/4 x 5 1/4
Pink: 4 x 3 3/4
Stars: Cut at 1 1/2 inches

Purse card...oh so cute idea!!

I LOVE this card! It is such a cute idea....but not my original idea. My sister saw a card like this in a craft store, bought it and showed it to me. I just HAD to make one!! I have searched for similar ideas online, but didn't see it. So, if you happen to know who came up with this idea, let me know. I'd like to give credit where credit is due. But for now, this is my version of the card. It's an A2 size card. The hearts are cut from the Doodlecharms cartridge at 1 1/2 inches. I embossed the white background with the floral cuttlebug embossing folder. Scalloped edge is done with a Fiskars punch; scalloped circle is cut from Mini Monograms cartridge. The sentiment says 'it's my party' and is a studio G stamp.

Vintage Music Card

My card today features vintage music paper. The scalloped border is cut with the Plantin SchoolBook Cricut cartridge. Heart is cut with a sizzix die. I sponged the edges of the music paper with brown ink to give a more vintage look. On the inside I stamped "You make my heart sing" with small alphabet stamps.

Valentine cocoa slider

Hello! Here is a picture of a hot cocoa slider. If you pull on the bow at the top, a package of hot chocolate slides out of the pocket. I saw this idea posted on The Pink Stamper under the December posts and adapted the idea for Valentine's Day. ( There are so many inspiring projects on the Pink Stamper site--especially if you own a Cricut!) I used paper I had; cut the scalloped heart and inside heart using the Doodlecharms cartridge; white paper is punched with a scalloped edge punch from EK Success.

I also have a few pics of a scrapbook page I did. Pretty simple--just a few photos, stickers, and stamps. I stamped the edges of the pink paper with a Studio G stamp. I like the subtle look of the pink rub on that says "adore." : )

PTI Scrap Challenge: Thank you tags

Hi! I am participating in the Papertrey Ink "scraptastic" challenge! I made 17 thank you tags from just my stash of scraps. I tied them to these CUTE crayon candy canes (my sister picked these up for me at Walgreens, an after Christmas clearance item). I thought they would make great thank you's for my kindergarten class. They blessed me with many nice gifts! I think I will write the child's name on the star; I have space on the inside to write a note of thanks. Sentiment stamp is from Printworks; tags and stars are cut with my Sizzix. I kept them simple and used white ribbon. Let's face it, these are for 5 and 6 year olds. : ) They will be more excited about the candy cane than fancy ribbon! LOL! Happy New Year and thanks for looking!

Have s'more fun!

I made this birthday tag using the Inky Antics S'more set of clear stamps. I stamped the background on craft cardstock, stamped the s'more on white and adhered it with pop dots. I colored the s'more and the background with colored pencils. The sentiment says "Hope your birthday is s'more than you dream it to be!" The set also came with a Christmas sentiment, making it very versatile. : )

Taller than Mom

Hello! I have a scrapbook page to share today of my oldest son...this summer he outgrew his mother. He's pretty proud of it! Paper and stamped flower image are from MME "Laundry Line" collection. Other stamps from Studio G. Have a great day! : )
