Soho

Hi everyone.  The weekend is here!   I hope you have something fun to do this weekend.  I will be doing the two C's, creating and cleaning

It has been a quiet day around here, I finished this card and cleaned up my craft room a little bit.  KC, the poor thing, took lots of naps today.  

The apartment complex I live in has required us to remove our outdoor grills, and I miss mine horribly!  One building was burnt to the ground this year and another building last year received fire damage because of grills so I understand the reason why but don't like it.  

For today's card, I'm using another sketch challenge, first I embossed the card base then I chose my paper.  The sketch below shows different patterns and different colors for the border at the bottom but when I decided to use this piece of patterned paper I decided to use the same one and I love how it turned out!   When I am creating and a design comes out of nowhere it's just like a real high!  (laughing)

I hope you enjoy it & I hope it inspires you to do a little creating for yourself this weekend.

For You

For my FB friends & family today, I have a little sunshine for you on this dark, rainy day in my little corner of the world.

Happy Birthday To You

I have a fun card today!  Our new DSP Kalaidoscope is hip and modern and appealing to both kids and adults!  With a few adorable pinwheels and rhinestones, any young lady will treasure this card.  

I used CCMC293.  

Just For You

I'm ready for Spring!  Can you tell?  Soft colors of Crisp Canteloup and Sahara Sand with a touch of Whisper White freshness.  Add on a bold graphic design from the new DSP Sweet Sorbet I'm in love.  So pretty.

Hostess Gift

I was invited to a party Sat. night & wanted to bring the Hostess a small gift.  The flowers are made from a printed burlap & another fabric but I'm not sure what it is.  It's very soft with lots of texture which pairs nicely with the rough, stiff burlap.  

The next photo shows the pretty sack I decorated to give them to her in.
