Color Hues

 The Ton Stamps Easy Expressions, Stampin Up 1999 Wooden Stamp, Copics

I recently acquired this wooden stamp from a thrift store!

It's such a cool image and an amazing year, to be honest.

That's the year I met Jesus. :)

My life hasn't been the same (in a good way) since that day.

I grew up around many faiths and religions, but when Jesus met me, THAT WAS IT.

He's the real deal and He's never left me nor forsaken me and I would do it all again, given the opportunity.

Speaking of opportunities (sorry there's never a simple segue from  life changing moments and topics)...check out Color Hues.

Celebrate Fuchsia & Navy

Stamplorations Bubbles Stencil, Erin Lee Creative Backpack die, Papertrey Ink Celebrate (Customer Appreciation 2016)

Sliding in quick to share a card I wanted to make for Color Hues Fuchsia and Navy (by the way, I realize I don't know how to spell Fuchsia with confidence; ha!).

 

Stamplorations just released stencils (YAY!!) and I was blessed to win a GC, so I grabbed the Bubbles!

I set it to the side and blended on the card front Catherine Pooler Flirty Fuchsia (thank you spellcheck :)! ) and Papertrey Enchanted Evening.  I topped with a backpack already die cut and navy ribbon sitting on my desk (for why tho)...and it came together.

Now I need to blast over there before the challenge ends... 

Happy Birthday Coffee Treats

Embossing Folder, Pretty Pink Posh Eyelet Circles, The Greetery Sweet Tooth die, The Stamp Market Grid die (pots that look like coffee cups)

 

Place dollops (sweet tooth candy from The Greetery) on pots (The Stamp Market Grid die pot) and they look like coffee treats;).

DT INk Visual Prompt Sketch

 

The Ton Stamps Mass Tags dies/Rose Tags Stencils/Easy Expressions, Tim Holtz Layering Stencil Plaid

It's time for a new challenge at INk!

This time it's a Visual Prompt Sketch~

I had the tiniest tags from different colors whilst playing with the Ton Stamps Rose Tags stencils. These were produced in one craft window(yay!).

 The minute I saw this sketch...I knew they would be perfect!

I went with a square sized card and I wanted to put out there...if you mail a square envelope, it costs more postage (in the US).

I've learned the hard way *twice* ahem (both times returned).

So I either need to use a regular envie or REMEMBER TO put extra postage on my fancy square envelope (which I LOVE the look of).

Just a friend passing that on.... ;)

Please join us with your unique take on this sketch!

Favorite Hello

The Stamp Market Paw Print die, Whimsy Stamps Irreplaceable Friend, Riley and Company Brick Wall

 Here's a sympathy card I created for someone who lost a precious furbaby.

I did a bright sunny monochromatic color (memories are always playful).

Happy Birthday Van

The Greetery Happy Hippie Van die, stickers

I finally cracked open this Happy Hippie Van and used it to make a Birthday van for my daughter's special day, so I'm linking to Darnell's NBUS!

Up top is a miniature (doll?) easel set I picked up at a craft store.

I glued all the little pieces down so that her pets wouldn't snack on them. ;)

 

I filled this interactive 3D "not a card" with multiple sentiments for the birthday girl.
