I see ... Stripes!

Over at the Crazy Card Party, Patricia has challenged us to use stripes on our project.  This was a fun card and I also tried my hand at stitching on this card.

Here is my project...

I'm quite happy how this turned out!  Head on over to the Crazy Party and link up your striped project.  Thanks for stopping by!

Warm and cozy!

This week it is Avril's turn to challenge the Party-ers and she has chosen something warm!  For some reason my mind kept going to the recent months and how we all kept warm during the past winter season.  So while we are happy we've turned the corner toward Spring, my card is a homage to the winter past with snowflakes and warm, woolen mittens.

Here is my card...

Not to mention I have a head start on my Christmas cards for this coming year!  Thanks for stopping by ... head on over to the Crazy Card Party and see how the others are keeping warm!

Another one of my favourite things....

Hi everyone.. this week, Sharon has asked us to use our favourite die.  The card I made used a new die set so I'm not certain I could say it is my 'favourite'.  Although the Sizzix leaves die does get a fair bit of work out on my projects - both cards and layouts.  Along with the gold embossing, I also added some gold embellishing on the leaves using a Wink of Stella pen.

Here's my card....

Thanks for stopping by... head on over to our Crazy Card Party to see the other favourite dies.

Is it Spring yet?

This week it is Rosanne's turn to challenge the Party-ers!  She chose Botanical.. perhaps she is hoping for an early Spring or at least a glimpse of some grass!  The weather is forecasting 'warmer' temps next week so here's hoping!!

Here's my card....

As usual, this was inspired from a card I saw on Pinterest.  The white flowers are embossed and I fussy-cut the flowers, on advice from my party friends.

Thanks for stopping by and keep thinking Spring!  And take a look at what the other Party-er's have come up with!

Does this look familiar??

This week we were challenged, by Regan, to 'case' a card from a fellow Party-er!  I chose this card by Rosanne  .

Here's my card...

Mine is a little different... Rosanne used gold and I used silver!  Head on over to our Crazy Card Party and link up your 'cased' card.  Thanks for stopping by.

That's A LOT of white...

and I'm not just talking about the snow on the ground here in Ontario!!  This week we were challenged to create a white on white card.  I wasn't sure how I would accomplish that as I do tend to put the greeting or sentiment on the front of the card.  But I think I was able to capture it appropriately!!

Here is my card....

So head on over to our Crazy Card Party and link up your WHITE project!!  

See you next week!

Just one of my favourite things!

HI there... I'm on time this week!!!

Patricia has challenged us to use our favourite stamp set this week.  I have loved this stamp since the first time I saw it embossed.

Here's my card....

The stamp in the upper right hand corner is part of the background paper but based on some Pinterest inspiration I used inks before embossing the doily.  I really like how it turned out.

Thanks for stopping by... link up your favourite stamp project with the others, over at our Crazy Card Party!
