Butterfly thanks

One last card to share that I created on my weekend Extravaganza!I was so excited to be able to use Tim Holtz Distressing Crackle paint (and in PINK too)
I took a close up of the butterfly so you can see the crackle a little better.
When the paint dried it curled the paper so it was a perfect fit for the butterfly wings... looks like he's flying right off the page.

Be Mine banner

Pink, glitter, love and Bling .....
What more could a girl ask for?
Tonight when Sommer and I got together we decided to create a Valentine Banner.
I, naturally, reached for some yummy glitter paper from My Minds Eye and Bazzill Bling cardstock. Now that's a combo that you just can't mess up!

I had so much fun designing and planning for this project. I just love to work with pink anything! (Sorry about the dark photo's, I couldn't wait until morning to take them)

Get Well

I'm obsessed with glitter lately. I just love the rainbow of colors that Doodlebug has. And there's nothing like a little "bling" to make me smile. I found a glue stamp pad and thought I'd try it out using some of my rubber stamps. I grabbed this "get well" stamp first and just loved the result so I designed a card around it. (Crazy how the creative process works) I even dipped the brads in glue and glittered them to match.
I'm getting together with Sommer tonight to create! I'm sure there'll be a little laughter, a little girl talk and A LOT of GLITTER involved.

Celebrate - with style

I discovered this adorable chandelier stamp at Michaels and couldn't wait to use it. Then I discovered the chandelier paper and knew it was a match made in heaven!The word "Celebrate" and the chandelier shades are dusted with black glitter... very elegant looking in person!

Pins and needles

I'm on a roll with the card making lately...
Just created this card following a sketch my sister told me about.
I found this pin trio on the New Arrival Cricut cartridge and thought it would be fun to try and use it for this card.

Hummm... what will I try next?

Little House

I glanced over the call list for CARDS and found they wanted cards with a house icon.
So this is what I came up with. (any of it look familiar?) I used a new Cricut cartridge called Wild Card for the little house.

Cupcake-a-thon

When I was at Target the other day a 6 pack of Jolee's boutique cupcake stickers caught my eye. I fell in love with the colors and texture of them. They were my inspiration for my latest card creations. It felt so good to be creating again that I couldn't stop with just one.
Here's a little peek at my latest cupcake card creations.....
