Watercolor Fun

This card features Bordering on Romance which is a carryover from the spring mini catalog. I have seen this set used on some very elaborate cards but I choose a rather simple layout for my last buffet. We did some watercoloring to soften the look of the card. I am not the best at watercoloring but sometimes you have to step outside your comfort zone :) I have made three new stampin friends in the last week and I am so excited to share my passion for stampin with them. Feel free to contact me any time you have questions about stampin' and Stampin' Up! I will do my best to answer them, if I don't know the answer, I will find it and get back to you.

Froggy Birthday

How many of you recognize this little frog? Isn't he adorable? He comes in the Ronald McDonald House Charities stamp set Moving Forward thiat is in the 2012 - 2013 IB&C. This is such a fun card, I found the layout on SCS and had to use it at my recent card buffet. The buffet was yesterday and I think we can all agree it was a lot of fun! Looking forward to the next one. Hope your having a good week!!

I have to say, I love this advertisement--too funny!!! My husband thought is was cute as well. We all need a good laugh sometimes, especially at ourselves! I am usually the first one to poke fun at myself because quite frankly, I am worth making fun of...LOL I hope you had a great weekend and are ready to face the new week. Remember, next weekend is a three day weekend, can you believe summer is over???

Meet Steele

My boy....Steele This is my heart...we adopted Steele from a local rescue and he had my heart the first day we met. When we got him his hair was shaved down to the skin and he had a big fluff of fur on the end of his tail which my husband called his firecracker. I have to admit, I knew he was a sweetheart, but I did not think he was the most handsome dog I had ever seen...lol Well, after the hair grew, so did his attractiveness, now he is commonly referred to as my handsome man. I also call him Joey the way he jumps straight up in the air every time I come home from work. He surely does not hide how he feels about his mommy. Just thought I would take a break from stampin' to share a little about myself! Hope your having a great day.

Punch Art Happy Birthday

Wow, how I love the way this card turned out!! The dazzling diamonds set this card off, and I am sad you cannot see it in this pic. This was my second punch art class and we had a lot of fun. Made a new stampin' friend during this class, which is always fabulous. I hope you are having a fantabulous day!! Blessings.....

Simply Thanks

A very simple thank you inspired by a special stampin friend - Lisa. This is a CASE of one of her swaps at Convention. I was never really crazy about the stamp set Easy Events until I got some awesome swaps! I am using at least two stamps from this set in my next card buffet. Hope you are having a great day!!!
