Well, here is my entry for the September Contest over at The Stamp Shoppe - yes, my favorite little CANADIAN source for Magnolias. This month's challenge is to use any Magnolia stamp BUT Tilda and to use one of the three card sketches on the blog!!! This is the sketch I chose to use, but you can find the other ones here:



You still have time to enter....I believe the contest is open until the end of September!!! Get your entries in for an awesome paper pack and some other fun goodies! :)

Creative Scrappers Sketch #71

Here's this week's sketch!! Alas, my mojo seems to be missing and I never did get to last week's sketch. Oh well!!! I'll see what I can do with this one. I also got a bunch of new copics in this week and a few new stamps, so looking forward to putting some things together with those!! :)

Creative Scrappers - Sketch 70


Well, here's this week's sketch!!! Hopefully I'll find some time this coming week to play! :)

Thursday, September 17, 2009



Here's another little card I whipped up tonight - Greeting Farm stamp, and copics. I took a picture of my sketch colors and I also used E00, Y38, YR07 and my blender pen. These colors I only have in the caio style and they don't lay nice and flat like the sketch!! I wish I had ALL sketch, but c'est la vie!! When I wear these ones out - I'll replace them in the sketch! :)


TFL!!! :)



Is it too early for Christmas cards??!! Tee hee!!! I got this design from my friend Julie Y. As soon as I saw her card I just KNEW I had to make some for myself!!! Seeing how I'm in a scrap off at the LP house this week, I figured now would be a good time to get a start on things!!! I made 20 of them for a whopping 10 points!! :) Yay me!! :) I still have a lot of catching up to do, some of those girls are really ROCKIN' this challenge!! I'm such a slow scrapper, I'll never catch up, but I'd sure like to do my part!! :) GO BLUE TEAM!!! :)

One more for today...I just think this little guy is sooooo cute!! I couldn't resist!! :) TFL!!

You make me happy....



Well, here's my attempt at a 6x6 card. They are kinda big if you ask me...but I liked all the room! :) I used my Spica glitter pens on this card which you can't see in the picture, but I promise it is much more sparkly in real life!! :) I even did some embossing on this one, which I haven't done in FOREVER. I even managed to melt the ribbon (don't think I didn't notice the fold) but oh well, the sewing is attrocious too, so it sort of balances itself out! LOL!!! I think it all adds character!! LOL!! :)

Thanks for stopping by! :)

Here's a layout I did tonight that covers a miriad of challenges. First - it's my layout for week 5 over at Life Preservers!! Yes, I am thankfully still in the house!!! However, this week another 6 or 7 will get the boot, so the stakes are high!!!! I also used this layout for Ann's "Use a Song" challenge at Savvy N Sassy. We just had to use a title or lyrics or both!! :) I love this song from the Platters and felt it fit the call! :) The ribbons on the layout are also from the gorgeous September ribbon kit. Also, as you can see below - this is the sketch of the week at Creative Scrappers!! :) I love it when I can kill a few challenges with one layout!! :) One more note - I just loved making the little flower on the bottom corner of the layout. If you like it too, you can find the tutorial here: http://www.scrap-a-little.com/ This gal does amazing work and she is oh so willing to share her ideas!!! I love people like that!! :) Well, happy scrappin'!! Thanks for stopping by!! :)

Here's a little card that I whipped up this afternoon. This one is quite 3-d so I included a second pic so you could see the dimension of the products I used. Love playing with these cute little images (I might have mentioned that before!!)
