They say....

rain on the day of a wedding brings good luck, well our friends Dean and Corrie will have a bunch of it :)  It is such a dreary, rainy day but they will be sunshine shining down on everyone during the ceremony.  Well the procrastonator in me waited until this morning to make the card for this afternoon but I LOVE the outcome of the card.  The stamps are from the Key to My Heart set that was promotion through Close to My Heart last year.

Here is a side view of the card so you can see the details:

Show us your colors Challenge

he 2010 FIFA World Cup South Africa begins on 06/11/2010 and ends on 07/11/2010. The official website is here. The World Cup is only held once every four years and is the world's premier soccer event. 

Since we have a lot of international followers (Germany, The Netherlands, South Africa, Greece, Malta, etc) and an international DT (US, UK/Wales, Australia, and Canada), we thought it'd be fun to have sponsor a challenge where people make either a card or project that features:

• the team colors of the country that he/she wants to win the World Cup
• the colors of his/her national flag
• the colors of his/favorite sports team (i.e. silver & blue for the Dallas Cowboys)
  Participate in the challenge for a chance to win the following prizes:
  • 1st prize - 7 Bugaboo Digi Images of your choice
  • 2nd prize - 4 Bugaboo Digi Images of your choice
  • 3rd prize - 2 Bugaboo Digi Images of your choice

Happy Friday everyone!!!

Today's card is for this week's Twlight Challenge which is to use the colors of the books (black, red, white).  I didn't want to use the typical Twilight images so I went with this beautiful flower envelope from Just a note.  As for the paper, I've had this sheet laying around and didn't have any idea what I was going to use it with and then I had that "aha" moment and this is what I ended up with.

Well off to make a wedding card for tomorrow, I will post pictures when I'm done.  I'm hoping to get a few cards made this weekend since we finally finished Season 2 of Trueblood :)

Gift card holder

or for those small gifts that other bags seem too big for.  I created this over the weekend and just barely got the chance to post it.  The stamp set used for this was Happy Endings from Artful INKables. I used my Cricut to make the bag with my Boxes, Tags and More cartridge and made the bag 5 1/2''.

Sassy Chick

Sassy Studio Design is looking for a new a DT and one of the requirements of the application was to create a card with the free image posted on their blog.  This is my card for the application:

Artful Inkables

This week's challenge over on the Artful Inkables blog is to create something with Pockets.  Kristin now has an awesome pocket themed set that would be perfect for this but if you don't have it there are still plenty of options available.

The set I used for my card is Aquatic Fantasy.  I placed glitter on her tail to give her some sparkle and added a few flowers.  The inside of the card is where I placed the "Pocket" so that you can place a gift card or as seen here some money.

Now let's see what you can do, get your card/project done and linked to the blog and you can win some awesome stamps from Artful Inkables.
