Wine on my mind....

Clearly I have wine on my mind with these 2 creations tonight..... This first one, that i actually really LOVE!!

 

I'm entering this in the CASe this sketch #45 challenge.....here is the sketch:

Here is my second card.....also wine related :)

 

This card was inspired by...

MUSE #35, here is the beautiful Muse card by Marion Vagg...

and for Drunken Stampers #141, BARTENDER!  

I've been thinking lately, I haven't done a design team in YEARS....wondering if I should try out for one. It would be fun! If anyone knows of any that are looking and I might be qualified for let me know please.....THANKS!

a few thank you cards....

.So I have a few cards to share today....for a few different challenges...(as usual!!!)  Here is the first one...
 I'm entering this card into 2 challenges.
 1. Moxie Fab World The Ready Made Embellishment Challenge.Almost every element of the card is from a pack of Fancy Pants embellishments. Matter of fact....the cork paper...is actually the packaging! If you were to flip it over, you would see the packaging...haha.....but since I glued it down, noone will be the wiser! (except for all 3 of my blog readers!!!)

2.  CAS-ology week 62: ARROW!  I don't think any explanation is needed here!

So that's THAT card....I have another one!

Card #2....
This card is for a few challenges as well!
 1. 365 Cards, day 257 Cityscapes revisited....once again...no explanation needed!

2. Moxie Fab World: the stickers and tape challenge.  See the thought bubble with the rainbow arrows on it? Well that is a sticker I got out of one of my Little Red Scrapbook kits!  I did stamp the 'thank you....' onto the sticker, but it is in fact a sticker! I'm always so scared to adhere a sticker! afraid I won't like how it looks and then I will be stuck....so i take my stickers and put baby powder on the back of them FIRST. THEN....I place it where i want, be sure that I like it, and add glue! ( i know, that seems to defeat the purpose of a sticker....but I need to be sure!)

After I wreaked havoc on my craft area the past few days, I need to clean it up! I organized all my close to my heart stamps tonight...omgosh....i have so many! and now i want to use them all even MORE! (maybe tomorrow....if i'm lucky!)

Thanks as always for visiting my blog. I know there are only very few of you who visit, but I appreciate all of you!

All that Glitters...

I made this card for the All that Glitters is gold challenge on Moxie Fab world. I used a new Close To My Heart stamp set, and used gold glitter embossing powder to make the rays SPARKLE!!! I originally was going to use just plain gold embossing powder, but when I found the glittery gold in my stash i couldn't resist! Oh, and I used sketch #81 at retro sketches....here is the sketch:

That's all for tonight, thanks for visiting my blog!
