Twisted Sketches #101- Happy 2nd Anniversary Twisted Sisters!

This week's sketch over at Twisted Sketches has the twist "two" for the celebration of the 2nd anniversary of the site! Happy Anniversary twisted sisters, and especially to Anam! I made this card for my friend's child's 2nd birthday. His name is Rylan and he's adorable- a heart breaker already! So cute! I used a circle stamp to add some emphasis to the 2 on the count down, and used glossy accents and copics on the shuttle. Enjoy your weekend everyone!

CFC #47 Again!

So I had to make another Easter card this morning and I am obsessed with grey and yellow right now! If you follow me on Pinterest, you know just how obsessed I am! This is for CAS-ual Fridays what you'd find in an Easter basket challenge.

Just Us Girls #131- Sketch Challenge

This week's challenge at Just Us Girls is to use their sketch to create a card. I haven't played JUGS in awhile and I miss it! The design team ladies are so inspirational and wonderful all around! Here's my card:

I'm in love with this gnome sticker! I think it's so adorable! To frame it out I used a chipboard that was colored with Tim Holtz stain and then popped up with 3D squares. What is it about gnomes that just suck you in?! Or is it just me! Anyway, happy Easter or Passover everyone!

Wedding Card


For this card, I started with a natural fibery paper and then added the vellum sheet with black velvety dots at the bottom. Going over that is a pleated ribbon with black rhinestones running across it and two pearl covered pins to top it off. I have about 5 million weddings to go to this summer so I need to get cranking on them now before my time slips away!

Twisted Sketches #100 - Grow

This week's twisted over at Twisted Sketches is "grow". Since it's spring, I immediately thought of flowers growing and blooming and my new Rosie Posie set from Papertrey Ink was the perfect inspiration!


The sentiment along the right hand side says "bloom where you're planted" which also makes me think of growing! I just got this fun new paper and twine which I'm in love with. The mustard yellow is my new favorite color I think!

CFC #47 Something you'd find in your Easter basket!

This week's challenge at CAS-ual Fridays was to make a card featuring something you'd find in your Easter basket. I just love Papertrey Ink's jar collection and they have the cutest Easter themed stamps in the spring set!
Happy Easter and have a great weekend everyone!

CFC #46 Name that Tune

This week's CAS-ual Fridays  challenge was to make a card with a song title or lyrics, I chose "You are my sunshine" and here it is!

I used a paint dabber to cover an oval chip board and then added this embellishment flag and tied on some twine. I've been really in to chevron stripes lately and I love this pink pattern with the blue and brown together! Thanks for visiting!
