Baby Bunny!

Hi there! Hope you're doing well. I just love pastels, don't you? I don't wear them, but I love to create with them...especially baby cards! I love using yellow even when I know the sex. Yellow..and also light greens. I think they stand out from the normal pinks and blues. The current CR84FN challenge uses yellow, kraft, and a neutral and I immediately thought of a baby card! 


And since I am still obsessed with my SU "A New Little Someone" set, the bunny is making another appearance! Here is my card:


I just love changing up the colors on his feet, ears, and bow. He's such a little cutie! Thanks for stopping by!

Get better..

Well, hello! It's a new week already, huh? Yeesh. I hope you had a great weekend. I managed to get some stamping done, so that was fun! I have a card for you today using the current Card Patterns Sketch. I know I say this every week, but I love their sketches! Here is this week's sketch:




I decided to make the card a square because I wanted to use this big flower that i've had in my stash for months and it just didn't look right on the A2 cards. 



I hope you like it. I really liked these colors together and it was really brought together by the Basic Grey "Out of Print" paper pack. Can you guys tell that I love patterned paper? No? Really? LOL..well, I SO do. 


Thanks for stopping by!! Have a fabulous Monday!

College Man..

Hi there! I have a card today that I just loved creating. This week's Wee Memories challenge called for us to make a masculine card. I decided to go with a "college acceptance" congrats card. 








Here is my card:


I just love the Basic Grey "Oxford" paper pack because it has so many different masculine themed papers like this one with all of the books. And yes, I know it's a tad late to be getting an acceptance letter to college, but just go with it...lol


Thanks for stopping by! Have a great Sunday!

Birdie...

Hi there! Long time, no blog. I cannot believe it's been almost a week since I updated. I'm not sure where this week went! Crazy!  Well, today I am back with a card using this week's Colour Q colors. Here are the colors:





What fun colors! I had a little trouble with the Melon Mambo (don't I always??lol), but love how it turned out. I used an older SU set called A Little Birdie Told Me. One of my favorites from eons ago. :)

Here is my card:




Have a great Saturday! Thanks for stopping in!

Lucky Me!

Happy Saturday! Well, not so much for me as of yet. I was cleaning the bathroom and somehow got Windex in my eyes. Ugh. I tried to flush them out, but they're still burning. :(

I did, however, manage to get this card completed before it was too bad. I was getting my card together and a sheet of Lucky Limeade got in the way, and I thought "wow, I like it!", so I kept it. Its a funky combination, right? I think it works, though.

So, I used this month's Sketch For You To Try, seen here:



Have you guys been playing along every month? There is a huge prize at the end of the year for everyone who's played along! Check it out!

Here is my card:



Hope you like it! Well, I'm off. Got shopping to do! Thanks for stopping by. :)

Grunge..

Ok, i'll admit it. I have fallen in love with making guy cards. I'm not sure what it is. They just feel so natural to me now. I like the simplicity of them, but also the angles and colors and sort of messiness that they have. Weird. So, when I saw this week's Colour Q challenge, I knew there was a "You Rock" card in my near future. Here are this week's colors:


And here is my "rockin'" card..




Isn't it fun? The colors look perfect together and I just love my herringbone cuttlebug folder! It adds a little "I have on a suit with Converse kinda feel a la Joe Bastianich (on the left...sigh) to the grungy nature of the card, no? :)

Well, thanks for dropping in. Have a great Friday!!
