Happy Birthday Drennan

Happy Birthday Drennan!!! This card is for my new Team Lead who I report to right now. I say right now because we are always changing things at my job. I used Coffee Riley because he seems laid back and this is for a guy so no need for too much embellishment. The card stock was from DCWV Alphabet stack!!! Love this stack! All of the card stock in it is black and silver and white. I purchased it with the 12 by 12 and the 4 x 6 just had to have it. This paper was appropriate to use because that is what Drennan is all about. If he does not hear the "sparky" in my voice he quickly sends me a message on my screen saying "I am so sad that you don't sound "sparky" today!!! At the bottom of the card I stamped Chocolate Moose anyone from Hanna Stamps Riley sentiments. In the inside of the card I used white ink from ... and made a silouette of Hammock Riley and the sentiment from MFT Time for Bubbly set. I gave it to Drennan at work and he loved it. I told him that he should not have been at work today and he said that I was so right and took my advise to go home right now... (Actually he was off today he just came in to finish a report!!!) But he made me feel like I talked him into it...too funny.

Riley Swap at SCS

Ok, I have truly fallen in love with Riley from Hanna Stamps! There is a Riley Swap at Splitcoaststampers. My first swap!! This is where you send in 6 cards, which one goes to the Hostess of the Swap and the other 5 go to other stampers that are participating. Then you receive 5 new ones back!!! So, the more you send... the more you receive!!!! So my cards that I am making are with Hula Sophie!!! I love her she makes me feel like getting away. Now what is so funny is that I was confused about the swap, at first, because I thought it was just make 6 and swap so I inked up 6 different Rileys. Then I realized that it was suppose to be the same stamp on 6 different cards, duh!!!

Photo Album Card

My friend Janine wanted me to make a card for her boss as a going away card (or shall i say scrapbook her a card!!!) She wanted 4 pictures of the her boss with plenty of embellishments and a page for each picture. I call that an album. We got in from my Mom's at 8 pm and I had to get right on this card!!!



I went to Hobby Lobby earlier in the week and purchased the Petaloo Box Blend Large Sunken Treasure. Loved it!! They were so cute!!! I got to get all the sets because you can mix and match. I also added gems on some of the flowers since she wanted some bling!!! I used cardstock from DCVW with matching ribbon. I bought the sheets individually at Hobby Lobby too. I could not find them in a pack. The clear scripture stickers came from JoAnns and matted them on card stock from DCWVas well.





Janine said that her Boss loved it!!! It was fun to make!!!

Happy Father's Day

Father's Day it was and I also got out of the hospital today and went visited my hubby's grandmother.

Hanna the Birthday Girl!!!

This card was so much fun to make ... I also entered it in the HSC19 Let's Play Dress-Up Challenge at Splitcoaststampers . I used my favorite Hanna (with long hair) stamp called But I Need It!!! I made this birthday card for my coworker who was giving it to her sister for her birthday. She said that her sister was an AKA and loved pink nd green. I used cardstock from DCVW Nana stack. I paper pieced the dress and the hand bags. I purchased the Jolees Happy Birthday Stickers, balloons, birthday hat and birthday cake from JoAnns. I used Marvy Uchida Super CLOUD QUOTE Punch to create Hanna's thoughts of new shoes. I accented with sparkly glitter pink from JoAnn's and Stickles™ Glitter Glue Lime Green from Hanns Stamps to accent her dress and shoes. Believe me, I am not a fan of pink and green how ever it is something about these 2 colors together. Can we say girly... My lil crafty stepdaughter saw that I was having so much fun with the glitter and decided to join in on the fun as well!! She made two very cute cards. I am so proud of her. She wanted to make a card for a friend that she went to school with and who is now movning out of town. She said that her friend loved pink. What surprised me was that she made the other card for me!!!

Shower Her wih Gifts

The Scrap Chicks got together and made this card for a babyshower. On this card we used Rainy Day Hanna... Thought it would be nice to feel like she was showered with presents, maybe next time it will come out better if I have smaller gifts surrounding her. We used DCVW cardstock and glitter pack from Joann's. For the pacifier I used Fiskar's punch and the little pink flower brads came from Target. The Sentiment Congratulations came from a stamp set that I purchased from JoAnn's. Pink and chocolate was perfect to use because it was prissy and soft in a conservative way...

Baby Shower Cards for Her

We made this card at our Scrap Til You Nap... We used Perfect Package Hanna with my Just for You Stamp from Joanns. This is my first time using the Perfect Package Hanna Stamp. I like how she looks like she could be wrapping the gift or unwrapping the gift. How fun!!! We wanted to jazz up her top so we used blue Sparkly glitter from Walmart. We wanted jaWe used card stock from DCVW spring glitter pack. I used the Marvy Uchida circle and scalloped punch to cut her out but then it cut the ribbon too, so i had to trim that off and glue it back. Loved it!!! I used the ticket punch for the "Just for You" sentiment that I purchased from JoANN's. We added a heart clip I got from Office Depot. This card was very nice, very easy, very quick.

I need it... Got to have it...

Here it is again, Hanna Stamps But I need it... This is my very first stamp I ordered from Hanna Stamps. It was my favorite stamp until she made another one and another one.. It is my favorite with long hair tho... I made this card for a co-worker who is always on the go and had to have surgery on her feet. She said that her favorite color was pink so I used pink Sparkly Glitter Glue that I purchased from Walmart. It was so easy to work with. All cardstock was from DCVW. I got the scallops frames from a lady that sold 25 of them in various colors on ebay!!!

This is Para!!!

Happy Birthday Para!!! I made this card for one of my team leaders at my job. When you call him, he answers the phone, "This is Para. (slowly in a deep voice) It is a Happy Belated Birthday card. This is my first card for a man. Ha, and it wasn't my hubby... He was a lil jealous but his day is coming... So I had to break out Mikey from Hanna Stamps and ink him up. I kept the card simple since it was for a man!!! No flowers and all that jazz... (believe me I was tempted!!!) He said he liked black and grey so there it goes... more info on supplies in a minute..

Take time to "Do you"

I just love this card. I made this card for my very bestfriend who is going through alot right now. I thought the idea of a bubble bath would help. In this day in age, most of us will hop in a shower quicker than taking the time to soak in a bubble bath. Sometimes you have to "DO YOU" I used the Time for the Bubbly stamp from MFT My Favorite Things. I did paper piecing to make the wallpaper for the bathroom. I also used ribbon and flowers from Hobby Lobby!!! My cardstock had adhesive backing and was purchased from Joann. I love working with polka dots. I think I maybe getting better if I may say so myself!!!

But I need it... for good luck

This is my first card using Hanna Stamps. I made this for a coworker that had an interview with another job and needed the motivation. I tried the masking technique and even added a mini purse charm on the card also. stay tuned for all ingredients...Once again this is my first card so stay with me as I grow with rubberstamping...

My Favorite Card

This is my favorite stamp. It's my version of Madame Butterflyy. I got it from JoAnn's. It's made from Stampabilities. The real name of this stamp is Prissy Penny. It is so cute and prissy!!! I made this using polka dot and metallic cardstock from JoAnn's. I got the brown ribbon from Hobby Lobbys Ribbon Scrap Bags. I added a gold button on the ribbon and abrown one on the flower. The buttons came from Hobby Lobby and the flower from Walmart!!! I used Distress Embossing Ink Brown to distress the edges of the card and the white flower. I love using polkadot paper with this stamp to compliment her dress I got the polkadot ribbon from Michaels for only a dollar!

Edges and Markers...Embossing Stamp

Cosmobella anyone?

This is my first stamp that I purchased from Stamping Bella -Cosmobella. I made this card for someone that had graduated and needed a little drink!!! I purchased the citrus paper from Recollections. I accented it with ribbons from Michaels one dollar bin and also accented with flat sparks and tags from Tags 2 Go. I used the sentiment "Just for You" from JoAnns Quotes Stamp set and matted the Bella stamp with JoAnns glitter stack pack. The lips punch was from JoAnns as well and the gems were from Hobby Lobby multi gems pack. It's one of my first cards so stay tune to see how much I will improve over time...

Oh my!!

This is another lovely stamp that I enjoy working with. I purchased this stamp from Michaels. It is called the Mod Hatter from the Montage Collection of Stampendous! This stamp is so feminine. Stay tuned in for the ingredients of this card...
