MFT Color Challenge #52

Yay, I was able to participate in yet another MFT challenge! This one was all about the colors. I didn't have the exact ones, but got a pretty close match. For my birthday my brother and sister in law got me a gift card to Teavana, so I knew that I wanted to make them some type of tea card as a thank you...so here's what I made:

My sister in law will really love it because she loves the teal color (and tea!).

All supplies MFT except card stock (PTI).

MFT Sketch Challenge #296

I finally had some time to get in my craft room this weekend! I actually made 4 cards and it felt wonderful :) I made two for this sketch challenge, so you'll be seeing the next one tomorrow morning since there isn't much time left! I also finally inked up some of my new sets I got from several releases ago, which is a good thing since I know I'm going to be getting some new goodies from the release tomorrow!

I used my distress inks, I definitely need some practice with them, but I sort of got the look I was going for.

12 Kits of Occasions August 2016

Well, I feel like this month has been 100% crazy busy! We've had something going on every weekend and most week nights, too. I don't think its slowing down too much through the end of the year...but thank goodness I still have the 12 Kits girls sending me amazing kits to work with so that I continue to make time for stamping at LEAST once a month! As always I could have made more with this month's kit, but was able to create 4 cards. Lisa put together this adorable "Sweet Pea" kit. Loved working with the MFT Pure Innocence girls! Please check out the 12 Kits blog for all the details along with all the other beautiful creations!

MFT Color Challenge #50

I just loved this month's MFT release! I got several of the sets :) I couldn't resist this adorable monster set! So when I got my package I pulled this one out right away. That cute font of "hello" is a Silhouette font called Jaws & Claws which was the perfect one to go along with these little monsters. Although I didn't have the exact colors for the challenge, I used the closest ones I had. Here are the colors for this month's challenge:


And here's the card I created:

12 Kits of Occasion July 2016

What a fun Christmas in July kit we had this month from Marybeth! There were fun gold papers and nice patterns, there were cute images and wonderful die cut words. I'm so happy to now have 4 Christmas cards made! Not sure what was going on with the coloring in my photos, I promise the cards looks better in person ;) Don't forget to go check out the blogs of my fellow 12 kittens, too!

12 Kits of Occasions June 2016

A birthday to Die(cut) for....how cute is the name of this month's kit?! Joyce is too creative, and I just loved everything she sent...and I am always in need of a birthday card stash, so I now have 4 more to add, thanks, Joyce! I didn't have any of the supplies that she sent along, so it was fun to work with some new goodies :)

There was a little boo-boo on this card, but nothing a wood veneer star couldn't cover up! The star wasn't included in the kit but everything else you see was :)
