Pocket Silhouettes

Hello!
Are you enjoying your weekend?? Hopefully you are! I have been busy working on some challenges and projects so I'll have somethings to post, but I did have a card to share today. The picture is a little dark, but the colors look great IRL. I hope you like it! Thanks for stopping by..
I made this card by stamping the image from Pocket Silhouettes (don't you just love this set?) in Chocolate Chip ink on Very Vanilla cs, I layered it on Chocolate Chip cs and layered that onto Pink Pirouette and Kiwi Kiss which I made using THIS TEMPLATE I sponged the edges just a little with my Chocolate Chip ink, the background polka dot piece came from the Chocolate Chip DSP I just go from Stampin Up! If you haven't seen these papers yet they come in a variety of colors you can check them out on my Stampin Up Website! Finally I embellished with a few light pink dew drops, adhered with Tombow Mono Adhesive.

Another Layout...

Here's another layout...I am not 100% satisfied with it, but oh well. It seems a little plain, but for some reason I am struggling with my scrapbooking lately. But I'm trying~and that should count for something right??? :)
Thanks for stopping by!

Kristina Werner Color Challenge #21



I always plan on playing with Kristina's color challenges, but always run out of time~or just don't get around to it~ But today I had to make a card for a cute neighbors 3rd birthday party. I thought Kristina's color combo would be perfect for the occasion! Have you seen the newest birthday set in the Fall-Winter 2008 Idea Book and Catalog??? Party Hearty is SO fun! Thanks for stopping by!!!
This card starts with a Kiwi Kiss base, then I used Whisper white and stamped the word Celebrate in Kiwi Kiss, Pacific Point, Regal Rose, and Rose Red. The cupcake image is stamped in Pacific Point, Kiwi Kiss, and Regal Rose mounted onto a Regal Rose square. Finished off with some orange/goldish rhinestones-the flames for my candles!

Pop Up Card


Good Morning well I guess its almost afternoon, but Hi just the same!
So have you had a chance to try one of these "pop up cards" if not....you should! They are not too hard to put together, and I think are so fun! I should have taken and image of the card laying flat, but oh well...You can find a great tutorial for this card on SCS. I love this image from the Floral Frenzy set I got from Papertrey... The ribbons, and felt flowers come from Stampin Up and the paper is something I picked up who knows when, but I liked the colors and it fit the look I was going for! I hope you like it, thanks for looking!!

Simple Thanks!

Hi!
How's your Tuesday going?? I have a quick card to show you today, SO simple to make. It uses one of my favorite sets, Much Appreciated, which is sadly now retired, but the new set, "Thank You Kindly"...oooh I am going to need that one! I love the look of the Swiss Dots embossing template~ it adds such a great texture, and the Chocolate Chip Taffeta Ribbon is one of my faves. I probably should have trimmed my bow a little more even, but oh well...sometimes you "get what you get!" Thanks for stopping by....

Saturday Scrappin!

Happy Monday!


So this weekend I was finally able to squeeze in sometime to scrapbook...something it seems there is never any time to do! Although I haven't quite figured out how to scan, or photo 12x12 pages the way I want...Hopefully you'll enjoy these two layouts.


This first layout still needs some journaling and a title added. But I like it so far!

I was happy how this layout turned out, I love the bright colors in Cosmo Crickets, Cogsmo line.

Thanks for looking!!
