You're All Heart

 It's Fri-yay! I hope everyone had a fabulous week and have a wonderful weekend planned! Maybe a Super Bowl party?! Or just Super Bowl food?! I'm all for the food! Not so much the game.

Today's card isn't a turtle. I ran out of steam yesterday so I just made a rather quick and easy card.


I pulled out Modern Heart that's probably from 2019?? I used DSP from Unbounded Beauty and A Little Bit Festive. I added a few gold hearts but that one just looks dark to me. Hmmm. Lighting.

Anyways, I wanted to use the sketch from the Retro Rubber Challenge #264.


And the color challenge from The Color Hues Challenge #126.


That's it for me this week! 

Happy Stamping!

I Love You/Turtle-y Awesome #3

 This card made me laugh while I was assembling it.


This is going to be the hub's Valentine card. I was laughing because this is a caricature of us...the hubs isn't a big swimmer so you would find him with swim fins, mask, life preserver, etc. I get sunburned or bit by a bug and swell up, turn red, etc. pretty much every trip we take. It's hilarious! IYKYK! 

Again, I just used the DSP in this suite. The sentiment is from Bee My Valentine. I'm hoping it qualifies for the Paper Players Challenge #771.


Happy Stamping!

Time to Celebrate!

 Today's card is Turtle-y Awesome card #2!


For this Turtle-y Awesome card I used a Granny Apple Green card base. I embossed a piece of Garden Green with the Turtle Textures EF. I used more of the DSP, Turtle-y Cute. I used one of my brand new Party Banner dies! 🎉 The banjo playing turtle I fussy cut from the DSP. The sentiment is from Itty Bitty Birthdays (retired).

I used the Atlantic Hearts Challenge Sketch #677.


Yesterday we had  Sweet P.  We went from walking Jake to baking cupcakes.



Our little girl is growing up! So fun! ❤

Happy Stamping!

Turtle-y Awesome!

 I've been wanting to have a play with the Turtle-y Cute Suite. Today's card is the first of several I made. 🐢


I used the CASE-ing Tuesday Sketch #549.


The Turtle-y Cute DSP did all the work! I fussy cut the trike riding turtle from the paper! The sentiment is from the Turtle-y Awesome stamp set. I used a few Low Profile Sparkle Dots to finish it! Easy peasy, makes me smile and I have another birthday card ready to send off!

Happy Stamping!

Happy Valentine's!

 Happy Monday and Happy February! New month, new week, oh my! I hope everyone had a wonderful weekend. Mine flew by. I cleaned up from glamping and just did some general cleaning. It did rain a bit over the weekend but if it continues to stay warm the hubs is going to have to mow the lawn again! 😎😄

Today's card was just a quick and fun card I did to post on Unity's Show and Tell FB page.


They were using this sketch.


The penguin is from Unity's Warm Hugs. I obviously didn't use the suggested color combo because you know Crafty girls do what they want! 😅

That's it for me today!

Happy Stamping!

Thinking of You

 Happy Fri-yay! I hope you all have had a fabulous week and have a wonderful weekend ahead! 

Sorry, not sorry for having one more card with a bee on it this week! 😅 It was a glamping week and my supplies were limited but I made them work.  It was actually kind of fun creating with what I had packed. 


I used the CASE-ing Tuesday Sketch #548 for this card.


I used the Cute as Can Bee DSP to do all the work. My sentiment is from the fabulous Go To Greetings and I stamped it in Petunia Pop ink.

That's it for me this week and this month! 

Happy Stamping!

More Treats

 Wow! Just a few more days left of January! I wanted to make a card for the Newton's Nook Designs Inky Paws Challenge #248  this month and here it is.






They had a color challenge.


I embossed a piece of Basic White cardstock with my Paws EF. I added a strip of red spotty dots from NND's Bright Basics Paper Pad. I embossed the piece of purple cardstock with the Happy Heart EF. And the star of the card is this cute little fur baby from NND's Puppy's Reading List that I colored. 

Yesterday we enjoyed a walk at a local park. We were right by the University of Oregon's Autzen Stadium where all the football games are played. Our kids are big Duck fans. 



Make it a great day!

Happy Stamping!
