PPA Challenge

Happy Sunday Everyone! 

Hope you are all are enjoying the last day of the weekend....I know I'm not ready to go back to work yet!!  But I'm excited for the end of this week, as my cousin and his girlfriend are coming down to visit!!! 

I thought that I would try to join in on a couple of challenges this week.  Challenges tend to give me "focus" or "direction" for a card.....makes it a little easier for me ;) 

So I thought Id join in on the PPA Challenge this week (paper pals art).  Its a sketch challenge and it gave me the change to use one of my most recently purchased Stampin' Up! Stamps --Up, Up, and Away! Of source, I paired it up with a Scrappy Mom's Sentiment :) 

I cut out 3 scalloped squares using my Big Shot in white and sponged them in a light blue to give it a sky feel.  I think heat embossed the clouds in White, using the create a cupcake stamp set.  The clouds are really the cup cake top....love to use my stamps in different ways :) 

Hope you guys enjoyed! And have a great week!!!

Scrappy Mom's Sneak Peak #3

Happy Saturday Everyone!! 

I hope that your enjoy your weekend, hopefully with family and friends!!  My brother in law spent the night at our house last night and we went out to dinner and watched a Movie.  I love family bonding time :)  

Here is my last sneak peak for the Scrappy Mom's release.  I finally got around to using the Raining Cats &  Dog set.  I pulled out on of the very 1st cartridges that I owned, which came with my Cricut, Paper Pups.

Scrappy Mom's Sneak Peak #2

Hey Everyone!

I've made my 2nd sneak peak using the School Days stamp set again. The card is pretty simple but I love the way that it turned out!!

In addition to the Scrappy Mom's School Days set, I used Stampin' Up! stamp set for the background of the card and the apple image.

Happy Saturday Everyone!!

I don't know about you all but I have been looking forward to the weekend since Monday :)

I've been organizing my craft space recently and my hubby just gave me more room in our den for my stuff (HooRAy!!!) so i've been rearranging a little.  Hence the lack of posts, even though this card was done on monday.  

Supplies: 

*Recollections card stock

*$1 Store Ribbon --Love the quality :)

*Scrappy Mom's "Quirky Quotes" stamp set

*Stampin' Up! Valentine Defined stamp set
