Take Life One Cup At A Time


I wanted to play in a couple of challenges.

First was over at Dynamic Duos, loved the simple black and yellow color combo this week.


And the other challenge was over at Addicted To CAS!


I went for just a clean and crisp look with this card. I saw this sentiment on Pinterest and decided to create it for my card in my Print Shop program. The cute little cup is from Cyber Cafe by Paper Smooches.



Supplies used: card stock - white, yellow; patterned paper - Depot Park in Hometown by October Afternoon; stamps - Cyber Cafe by Paper Smooches; ink - Tuxedo Black by Memento; font - Signature; pearls - Kaiser Craft; Pop Dots.

Have a wonderful day and thanks for stopping by!!!

Hay! It's Your Birthday!


I had a little free time this afternoon and I thought I'd make a fun, masculine card for the challenge at Dynamic Duos this week!


Now, normally the colors Garden Green and Daffodil Delight would make you think about spring flowers, but I guess I'm not normal 'cause I though of a John Deere tractor carrying hay. And... I am not even close to being a farmer, haha!

Anyway.... I cut the tractor and hay out with my Cameo using two different Silhouette Studio cut files. I created the sentiment on my computer in my Print Shop program. Took a piece of pattern paper and a piece of card stock and border punched them, then added a little zig zag stitching after I attached them to my card base.  A couple of brads on the tractors tires adds a little interest.



Supplies used: card stock - white, black, grey, yellow and green; patterned paper - Depot Park from Hometown by October Afternoon; Silhouette Studio cut files; border punch - Fiskars; brads - Making memories; font - HeeHaw; Pop Dots; sewing machine.

To The Moon and Back / Whimsical Wednesday #44

Since it is Wednesday we have a new Whimsical Wednesday challenge for you over at Whimsical DesignsThis weeks challenge is "Getting Sketchy" and we have a fun sketch for you to try designed by our own - Nanne.

Here is the sketch:


I had a lot of fun designing a card around this sketch. I used papers from Rocket Age by October Afternoon, I just love this line of papers. I cut the rocket and stars with my Cameo from Silhouette Studio files.

For the sentiment I used "I love You to the moon and back from Whimsical Fun - Vol 1, which you can purchase here.


I wanted some dimension, so I popped the rocket ship and stars up with Pop Dots. The moon sticker next to the sentiment is from Reminisce.


I hope you'll try your hand at our sketch this week and link up your card.
