quick

By now you know I like for things to be fast. This was the fastest layout I have ever made. I am not totally happy with it, but it will work.
It has been a super busy week, and I am just happy to have put ink on stamps! I know you all have those days.

Today is National Card Making day

In honor of that I am hosting a little challenge on my blog

Create a card/cards and upload anywhere that you can post a link to in the comments section on my blog post. You will get one ticket into a random drawing for some cool CTMH products for each card you share

Worl Card Day

World Card Day is this Saturday, the 4th.
In Honor of that event, Stampin' Up! is offering all their card kits 20% off! Super cool deal.
I made all 18 of these Christmas cards in less than 30 minutes. It is a great way to stock up fast.

calendar

I love these cute calendar kits!
They will make wonderful gifts!
so fun and easy, and you can use all your fabulous scrapbook talent to make them!

back at it

It has been a while, sorry.
My sweet mom FINALLY sold her home, and I have been swamped with helping her and PTA stuff. But I got to be me again this week! It has been so very nice to get back at it. I often have to make several attempts at projects before I am happy with them, but this week, I was happy first try with several. That was a nice feeling!
Sunday is Scrap Club, and we will make this layout with basic gray, kiwi kiss, so saffron, and cameo coral. I love this stamp set. I think it makes a nice statement for cards or pages. I colored directly on the stamp with our watercolor crayons, and then misted it with water just before stamping. if you click on the image, you can see it closer and with greater detail. This is a fun technique that I haven't been able to get enough of this week.
