Quickie Post

So this card is based off of one of the Taylor Expressions Cupcake Challenge Sketch. Its Stella from Stamping Bella. I was soooo excited to get my SB order I could hardly wait to ink them up. The sentiment's from TCP's You say its your birthday. It's a birthday card for one of my coworker's who's birthday was in July. But it was the end of July, so really I'm only two weeks late....





This next card I believe is a mojo monday sketch. A really old one. I had the image and scallop oval all done and couldnt figure out what to do w/ it. 'Lo and behold my sketch book was flipped to a page w/ an oval scallop! It was fate I'd say. Anyway this is another Stamping Bella image (and sentiment), Maisy Ketto. I totally flipped over her glittery wings. I thought they were just sooooo adorable. I love all things sparkley and couldnt resist adding some bling to the flower and her crown. Though I dont know if you can really tell in the pix. The paper I think is mostly from DCWV Latte set.






This last card is another mojo monday sketch. Can you tell, I've been obsessed w/ this paper pack. Actually it was more of a convenience thing. It was already out and I was too lazy to go find something else. Plus I'm totally digging the purple and blue colors now...

Anyway this is Greeting Farm's Mermaid Anya. Isnt she awesome? In retrospect I might've done a more watery looking paper (rather than plant life-ish) but I was being slothy. Anyways, this was a super quick card seeing as how I inked her a while ago and all I had do was cut and paste.







Oh boy...three cards in one post. I do believe that's some sort of record for me. However, the hubs got baseball twice this week so there's probably not much time for stamping much less posting. How sad.

TCP Tuesday on Friday

So it is yet another TCP Tuesday challenge. This week the hostess is Susan w/ a challenge to use any TCP cupcake or cake stamp. And the Smells like cake set was purrfect for this. The sketch is an old mojo monday sketchie that I just love. I think the paper was DCWV spring stack.

Clean and Simple Weddings

So the hubs and I are on our way to a wedding on the Big Island. I'm fairly sure this is our first wedding of the year. The flurry of weddings we seem to have been going to has died down a bit, which is kinda nice. Dont get me wrong, I like weddings, I just dont like being held hostage for hours at a time. I even thought my own twenty minute ceremony was a trifle bit too long. Sometimes I think I have the attention span of a gnat...or according to my teacher friend, an 8th grader in Math...

In any case, this is the card I made for the happy couple. Its based off a Clean and Simple Sketch. And I gotta say, this card was super easy peasy. No stamping involved. *gasp* I feel like I cheated. But I stamped "happily ever after" on the envelope. And I inked up the flowers myself. That's gotta count for something right? The paper flowers were daubered w/ brilliance starlight black and platinum planet and topped off w/ pearl stickers. I suppose I could've bought some prima flowers, but I have a ton of these plain white paper flowers that are just begging to be used. The DP is from Making Memories Wedding collection. I think they've got a new Wedding collection coming out, but this one I bought a few months ago then totally forgot that I had it.

So its off to the Big Island for me. Ironic really. We're leaving Seattle's 100-plus degree weather for cooler weather in Hawaii. What in the world is up with that???

Malfoy Misunderstood

Okay, so I know some people think of Draco Malfoy as the evil slimy slytherin git. Or the amazing bouncing ferret. But honestly, I think he's just misunderstood. Yes, you're understanding me correctly, I likes Draco Malfoy.

I mean come on, he single handedly saved Hermione Granger in book 4. At the Quidditch Cup. He warned them to keep her out of the Death Eaters sight. Granted he was acting like his normal slimy prat at the time, but read it again. You'll understand. Otherwise the Golden Trio would've just traipsed around completely clueless.

Those who really know me are rolling their eyes and muttering about how delusional I am. But enough about Draco and his hidden heroics. So I made a Malfoy card and decided to post it. Even though it will probably stay in my card stash for-ever because no one else I know hearts Malfoy like I do.

I got this idea from wickedpixie who did a Harry Potter card. I think if I had more time I'd adjust his eyebrows to make them archy like and tweak the mouth a bit b/c he just looks a bit too innocent. And the Malfoy we know, albeit very misunderstood, is still slightly an evil slimy slytherin git complete with archy eyebrows.















But I still love him.

Mojo Monday

I've been a little out of it lately and havent had any ideas for cards. That was until I saw this super awesome Mojo Monday Sketch.. I likes...

She's the partner of the Greeting Farm set, Hope and Grace. And I think she's just as adorable. Colored w/ copics of course, TGF stamps are fabulous for that. And paper is mostly from DCWV citrus stacks.

Laters, dude...

TGF

This is gonna be a quickie post b/c its late and a school night. This is from the Greeting Farm, Hope and Grace. Isnt she just adorable??? I still dont know if she's Hope or Grace.

Its actually a birthday card for a friend of mine. Her birthday's this saturday, and I'm hoping she'll like the card. Its bright and cheery, which reminds me of her. Ooh...and this is also based off a Taylor Expressions Cupcake Sketch. I do loves those sketches.

Anyway...the boss is yelling that its bed time. So I gots to run. But Happy early Birthday to all those born on the 18th (b/c I do know quite a few peeps).

Swanky Friday

Its TCP Tuesday again! This week the super fabulous Jen Del Muro hosted the TCP Color Challenge to use Raspberry, Teal and Sunshine. It was such a great color combo.
