Cardabilities #12

It's time for another Cardabilities Design team reveal. We are on sketch #12 and this is my last sketch with the team. I am so grateful for the chance to be on this team. Here is sketch #12..........................


And here is my take.............................................


I used Pink Paisley's Queen bee line for this card along with along with my Papertrey ink stamps. I also used one of the new spellbinders dies that recently came out. On the edge I used one of the cuttlebug embossing edge folders. Love the detail those give. The button is from Jenny Bowlin and the butterfly punches are from Martha Stewart Crafts.

Have a great day and Thanks for looking!!

Get Sketchy #57

My pre-scheduled post disappeared somewhere in blog-land so I am redoing it here to show you my Get Sketchy card for last week. Here is the sketch................................






And here is my take.............................................





This card didn't turn out exactly as I had in mind but it will do. The chip butterfly circle is from prima.I just punched out circles and added different punched out butterflies.I used the "Victoria" cuttlebug folder for my background.Love that folder!!

Take care, have a great day & thanks for looking!

Get Sketchy #56

Well it's Friday and that means it's time for Get Sketchy!! My design team term is officially over but I can still play along as Alumni. I really wanted to stay on the design team but I have a few things coming up and was afraid I couldn't keep the commitment. Anyway on to the sketch.......................................


I absolutely LOVED the sketch this week. It has soooo many possibilities I had a hard time trying to decide what I wanted to do. Make sure you get on over to the Get Sketchy Blog and see what the design team came up with. Here is my card.........................................


I ordered some new Prima stuff a couple of weeks ago and decided to use them on this card. The little girl stamp is from Prima also. I was so happy that they came out with 6x6 pads of paper I was jumpin' for joy!!! I ran the card base thru my cuttlebug with Papertrey ink's guidelines impression plate. the sentiment is from pti's embellishments stamp set. Get on over to Get Sketchy and play along!!

Thanks for looking and have a great day!!

Cardabilities #11

I can't hardly believe it is the 15th of the month already!!! What happened to summer????  Ours certainly was waayyy too short. So on to the Cardabilities sketch#11 reveal. Here is the sketch..................................


And here is my take.................................................


I haven't bought much patterned paper lately but when I saw the new Crate Paper restoration line I HAD to have it. The colors are be-ute! My favorite line this fall so far. I just cute a couple of strips and die cut the mat for the main image with Papertrey ink's Mat Stack die #4, layered a vintage cream square with corners rounded on top and added one of the flower chip board accents. The sentiment is from the all about you set from Papertrey ink. The kraft card base is embossed with a Sizzix embossing folder that I picked up at Craft Warehouse. 

Thanks for looking and have a great day!!

Get Sketchy #55

It's Friday and time for Get Sketchy!! Our sponsor this week is the greeting farm and we were given a couple of digital images to work with.  Here is this weeks sketch.............................


And here is my take................................................


I flipped the sketch and used the cute little duck image that was given to us. I colored it with colored pencils as copics will smear on printer ink. I used cosmo cricket delovely paper along with a scrap of paper that I stamped polka dots on. The letters are some I had in my stash and the ribbon is from Papertrey ink. There you have it.... come on over to Get Sketchy and play along.....

Thanks for looking and have a great day!!

Get Sketchy #54

It's Friday and time for Get Sketchy! this week sponsor is Janlynn and the winner will receive a $25.00 gift certificate. Here is this weeks sketch..............................



And here is my take....................................


I know at first glance it doesn't look like the sketch but let me 'splain. I wanted to use this swingin' baby stamp that I received from Janlynn so I knew I had to flip the sketch and instead of using rectangles I used two clouds and the baby. Pretty clever I thought. Even my man was impressed. SO what I am saying is you can get very creative with the sketches. Come on over to Get Sketchy and play along!!

Thanks for looking and have a great day!!!
