MUSE #101

 this weeks MUSE challenge I really struggled with! As simple and beautiful as this card by Marion Vagg is...

I had a hard time! looking at it now I see I also chose the wrong shade of blue! oh well....i used a few newer Close to my Heart stamps and heat embossed them onto the lagoon card base!!!

one more card to post before bed....i have a massive headache ugh!!! hope y'all had a great weekend!

Friday Mashup #193

I made this card for the Friday Mashup #193: 

I had never tried the triple layer technique before, I'll definetely have to try it again with some different stamps! The flower stamp I used is from a very old Close to my Heart set, I think it was one of the first ones I ever bought almost 10 years ago!
Any-hoo....happy Monday, so glad it's over! onward to tuesday...!

thanks for visiting my blog tonight!

First cards of 2015!

Happy New Year!

I started off the year slow.....was sick for a while, but finally got 2 cards made today.

Card #1




 This card is for MUSE challenge # 99
Here is the MUSE card by Vicki Dutcher:

Card #2



This card is for 2 challenges:
The Friday Mashup #192

For my card, I used a tim holtz embossing folder to do the embossing folder stamping, I love the way the bubbles turned out!  Unless my starfish and seahorse and dolphin count as 'shapes', i guess I didn't really mash it up!

This card is also CASe this Sketch #105
Here is the sketch:

Hoping to get many many more cards made in the near future! one of my resolutions is to keep my craft desk clean so I can get to it easier!
