Illuminations.....

A friend at work asked me if I could make her a wedding card. Sure why not!! So I hopped into my idea folder and found this super awesome card By Leslie Miller. Thank you Leslie for putting your signature on your work. So anyways I remembered my friend Sue has this stamp set so I emailed her asking if I could borrow it. Sure you can. Thanks Sue!! Well I got it home and dug around for the paper, I knew I had some just like it some where. It's so pretty why haven't I used it before now? Silly me!

Today's the day to order the new stamps over at Whiff of Joy (link on the side bar) if you haven't already!! I know I am going to go get me a few. Elisabeth Bell has some awesome designs. I can hardly wait for them to get here.

Ruffday....

Today's card is for a friends Birthday on Thursday. She loves dogs! So I decided to use this cute StampIn Up stamp from the set Ruffday. It has some cute dog stamps in it but this one just said pick me. Plus it has the birthday hat and confetti.

I also used this weeks challenge #17 over at Friday Sketchers. They always have really great sketches.

I'm also really into Brushes here lately. They have so many out there. I like how I can make them any size I want. The one I used here is actually two. The outer circles and the saying inside. It was a circle to begin with. I just squished it into an oval in PSP. I just need to figure out some way to match the colors from my paper. Instead of just making it black. but that will take more time then I allowed for this project. Later!!!

Also here is todays sneak peek of my give away. Only a few more days left so hurry over to the Scarpmagasinet DT Blog and do either the current Reader Challenge (You can win a cool prize) or the DT Sketch Challenge #2. Post a comment with a link to your creation on either or both challenges and I'll enter you into my own drawing. It's that easy!! But hurry....

Work is a Chore....

I've decided work is a chore... I have to go to work early today at another office because they are incapable of doing there own work. It's just pitiful. I've been helping them out for the last 3 months and it's just ridiculous that they haven't figured it out yet. But why should we when Heather will come over and pick up after us!!! Someone needs to be replaced.... Ok sorry I was venting there... :)

How about this card I'm really pleased with it! More flowers from SU. Hurry up Spring!!

Well I'm off to work, everybody have a great day!!

I'm Ready for Spring...

Flowers... I love them. They come in so many wonderful colors. And it seems I have a bunch of flower stamps. I don't know how many flower stamps you really need, but I seem to like them. I'm ready for the rain to stop and it to be sunny!!
