Hey y'all! Happy Sunday! I just wanted to stop in quickly and share a card I made for the current Casology challenge.
Talk about cutting the time close...and having stormy weather on top of it, I didn't know if I was gonna even make it time! But, I did!! :)
I real just was having some fun with this card. I didn't know if or how it was gonna turn out....though, I must say, I do kind of love it! ;)
Thank you for stopping by and enjoy your day! :)
Sweet Greetings
A place for me to share, my handmade greeting cards and other paper goodies.

I Miss You.
Hey y'all! I hope all is well with everyone?! I'm doing okay. Just staying busy and still trying to get my creativity back! Things are going to be a little rough for me the next couple of days. Tomorrow, is my Dad's birthday. I have no idea how I'm gonna feel and I really still want to celebrate it somehow...just haven't figured it out yet.....I'm sure it will come to me. Then, on Friday I celebrate my oldest son's birthday. Which he will be 7! Boy, kids sure grow up quick! ;)
Anyhow, I'm really stopping in today to share a card I made for the current 'Less is More' challenge. I have never played with them, until today. So hopefully, I have things right (if you know what I mean)! ;) Here is my card!
Use a colored base card (other than white/black/kraft/ivory). Well, I did that! And as many of you know, I kept it CAS! So, I think I'm good....It just comes down to my stamping. I used not one, not two, but three completely different stamps! None of them even went together, nor did I even buy them together! I actually have had all of them but the sentiment, for quite sometime now. Just putting some 'oldies' to use! ;)
Thank you for stopping by and enjoy your day! And please excuse my moment of silence, for the next couple days....I will be back soon! :)

Celebrating you today....
Hey ya'll! Happy Sunday and Happy Mother's day! :) Hope you all have a beautiful day! I just wanted to stop in and share our new challenge over at CAS on Sunday! :)
This time 'round, you need to use 'pastel' colors. And here is my card!
Now, I had somewhat a hard time with this card. I know what 'pastel' colors are. Though, for some reason I have a hard time putting those colors on paper. It may not look like it, but I did and do! I tried pastel colored base cardstock and it didn't seem to work for me (at least I didn't think it did). So, then I just thought of pastel ink colors. Even after I fished my card I still wasn't sure if my colors were 'pastel'! Though, after asking for opinions, I came to realize they are. :)
I think pastel colors are always gonna give me a hard time....I do love them, but I'm not sure if they love me?...... ;)
So, if your ready for the challenge...head on over to CAS on Sunday and join in on the fun! :) There's a wonderful prize from Iva Nova Chest up for grabs, too!

Hexagon (miss you)
Hey y'all! Boy, time just keeps flying on by!....Where have I been?! lol I've been in a crafting slump, that's where I been! Well, I'm no longer in my crafting slump...I actually made a card I'm happy about! :)
The card I share with you today, is for the current Casology challenge! I sure have missed the last few challenges and hopefully I don't do that again...I miss playing with them every week! ;)
Oooooh, keeping it simple and putting to use some good stamps, I ended up with this!
Nothing too hard about it. I stamped on my hexagon, then 'masked' it off and added my image on the inside. Then stamped on my sentiment. And for an extra little 'pop', I added some clear gemstone accents. :)

Little sweet pea
Hey y'all! Happy Saturday! :) I've been trying to create and trying to take photos....Though, my weather lately has been nothing but storms. Warm but cloudy and we're right around the corner from our 'wet' season. So, I'll only have limited hours in each day to snap some good photos....If I'm lucky. ;) Anyhoo....enough about weather, on to my card!
I made my card for the current Runway Inspired Challenge. I had to think about this one for a minute. I wanted to something a little more 'fancy' for this card. Here's what I ended up with! :)
Talk about a 'time consuming' card....I couldn't even tell you how long this card took me! The 'time consuming' part came in, when I was having to peel the back off the glitter tape. Not so much the strip of tape, but those little circles of tape! What was I thinking??!!...Though in the end, I'm pretty happy with my outcome. :)

CAS on Sunday, 'sketch' challenge!
Hey ya'll! It's that time again....time for another CAS on Sunday challenge!
And for this challenge, you need to use the sketch!
I ended up tearing my paper edges, by hand. Then added my wood veneer on top. I was debating whether to use white, cream, or kraft cardstock...Then I decided to go with a nice colored cardstock. I think the colors work lovely together?!.... :)
If you play along with us, you have the chance to win a fabulous prize from Team Utopia!
Be sure and stop by CAS on Sunday and see the rest of the DT's creations, too! ;)
Thank you for stopping by and enjoy your day!

I'm not really sure how the 'theme' of this card came to me?...But it did! :)

Did you see??!!
Hey y'all! Happy Friday!! :) I've been holding in some news...but now, I can shout it out!!
Eeeeeek! I can't believe I won!!! :) When I received an email telling me I won, I instantly wanted to jump up and down. Though, I was still sitting on the plane! So, I had to bottle it in until I got home (well, more like the car)! lol :) I'm am thrilled with excitement and I'm still in shock, some...! A BIG thank you to Paper Crafts Magazine!!! :)
I wish I had a card to share, but I've still been trying to gather myself together with everything going on. Though, I WILL be back soon with a card...I promise!! ;)
Thank you for stopping by and enjoy your day/weekend!! ;)
