Blast from the past...hopping fun!

Hello friends!  I am back with another Blast from the Past blog hop with Taylored Expressions!  This hop is so much fun!  This week is all about simple! There is also a sketch to play with.

I decided to create a simple guys card.  I used the Boys will be Boys set.

I embossed the cardstock with the Argyle cuttlebug folder.  Then layered my stamped image on some left over patterned paper.  I also paper pieced the image with some pattern paper scraps.

Hope you enjoyed my card today.  Have a blast with the rest of the hop!!

A little splitcoast fun....

Hello friends!  I am excited to share a card I created with the sketch from the Taylored Expressions Sketch challenge over on the Splitcoast Stampers forum.  Not only will your creation be entered into a drawing for up to a $20 gift cert to the Taylored Expressions store but, also they are looking to add one lucky person to their sketch team!!!  WOWZERS!  This is something EXTRA special!!  So of course I had to get time to create something to enter this fun challenge.

First the sketch...

So now for my creation...

I used the Boys will be Boys set to create this card.  Each little picture was colored with Copics.  I twisted some cording I saved off some packaging for the MANLY ribbon.  Added the Fathers day sentiment to the bottom.  Th blue cardstock is Core' dinations...Love to distress, rip and emboss that cardstock.  And finally the patterned paper is from DCWV.

I am glad I got a chance to play along....now off to bed.  We are up early in the morning to head out to a White Sox baseball game!!  Fun day ahead...gotta get my sleep. 

Thanks for stopping by today!

A little PEEP...

Hello friends!  It's already Wednesday, and March is about to come to an end.  I am still finding Valentines around the house and now I gotta start thinking Easter.  I participate in my boys classroom parties throughout the  year and am usually on the lookout for a quick and simple idea for cute treat bags.  This year is no exception.  I gotta get started on these treats soon.  Any ideas?

In the meantime I have been creating some cute Spring inspired projects with a paper collection by We R Memory keepers called PEEP!  I just love the name and the colors, everything really!  I recently saw a request by none other than We R Memory Keepers for some spring projects featuring their products and knew I had to send in a few things I had been working on.  I am excited to say that I got an e-mail this morning wanting permission to share my designs on the blog!  Of course I said YES!!  I am not sure when they will share them, but I decided to share them here too.

So, here we go......

Look at those CUTE bunnies and jelly beans.  The stamp is by We R Memory Keepers also and is part of the PEEP line.  The stamp collection is called Easter Candy (so fitting right?!)

This card uses the Easter Candy stamp set too!

These 2 cards and the tag were all created using the PEEP line.  Don't you just love the versatility of it?  And the bright sunshiney colors!!  LOVE!

Well, I gotta go.  But, Thanks so much for stopping by today!  Hope you can get some PEEP soon too, it really brightens your day!

Friends with Flair......

Hello crafty peeps!  I am so excited to be playing along today in the Friends with Fair blog hop!!!  Fun, FUN!  This is my first time participating in this blog hop, but I am not a newbie to the Unity stamps!  I am SO in love with them all...wish I had a money tree.

 Anyway, I created a card to share today using the June 2010 Kit of the month called Fly...Free.  I just adore all of the Kits each month.  And looky here...I do have a BUTTERFLY TREE!!!

I used this butterfly tree image from the kit.  I decided to stamp and emboss the image with some sparkle embossing powder.  I also cut a few butterflies out to POP up...Love these butterflies!  The sentiment is from this kit also.  So perfect together.

The papers are from We R Memory Keepers be my valentine collection.  I added a few rhinestones colored with Copic marker (sorry I forget the color).  The border punch is EK Success.  White cardstock is Bazzill.

I hope you enjoy my card today, and thanks so much for stopping by.  

Happy Craftin'!

Blast from the past Blog Hop FUN!

Hello friends!  I hope you have been hopping along the Taylored Expressions blog hop to see all the great creations along the way.  The theme for this hop is SPRING!  YES!, I know I am so ready for spring to be here!  The flowers, sunshine...and even the thunderstorms.

There is also a sketch created by Sankari that you can use to get started if you want to use it.

  I decided to use this fun sketch.  Here is what I came up with....

I used the Summer Afternoon stamp set.  I have used this set for so many different occasions.  Love it!

I decided to cut out the center of the stamped image and pop it up with the sentiment stamped in the center.  I also stamped and cut out a butterfly from the set and popped it up as well. I had fun with this sketch and the Spring theme.  Hope you join in too!

Here is a complete list of all the hoppers. 

 Have fun hopping and thanks so much for stopping by today.
