Satisfying Smile Card :)

The first of another set of several posts in a row! I had four day weekend, but didn't get any scrappy work done until last night! It was a good weekend, one of my cousins came down to visit, we did some shopping and hit up Red Lobster for ShrimpFest! MMMM! I never used to be a huge fan of shrimp but I must say I am growing to love it!!

This card makes me smile! I just love the patterned paper on it! I was trying to be good and use up a lot of my paper scraps, and I have been.. but I just really wanted to use this! I got it at Hobby Lobby a couple weeks ago... I must say, I go crazy for anything cupcake, kitchen or woodland animal themed! Soo cute! Its based off this weeks Sunday Sketch @ 365 Cards. Unfortunately you can't see that I added some glaze to the oven mitt, spoon and rolling pin, as well as to the blue circle behind the sentiment. The sentiment is from Verve Stamps, cutouts are from the From My Kitchen cartridge.

On a side note, I am SUPER EXCITED! I just noticed yesterday that I was a spotlight designer over @ 365 Cards for this card!!! What an honour, so pleased!

It's a Cupcake Thing

I did like this one.. but after further consideration.. Nope. This is for 365 Cards Monday Sketch. I really just do not like cards that have a lot of white space on them....... Cupcake is from the From My Kitchen cartridge, stamp is Stamping Bella

'Tis the Season!

I haven't posted in sooo long! I've been ridiculously busy with work. I've had most of these cards made for ages but haven't had time to post! All of the papers are Echo Park, such a cute new line! The bright papers are from "Everybody Loves Christmas", and the more subdued are "Wintertime." Uggh I just love them both!

Love these stamps! They say "Merry Christmas to you and your (check one): Husband, Wife, Domestic Partner, Boyfriend, Girlfriend, Singles Club, Best Friend, Dog, Cat" So cute! I used From My Kitchen for the aprons, Joys of the Season for the mittens.

Aren't these ornaments sweet? I decided to use my Peachykeen faces on a ton of my cards... they are just so playful and cheery, they are perfect for some fun cards! The ornament is from Joys of the Season, the martini from From my Kitchen.

I LOVE this stamp.. but the sentiment doesn't really go with much... I had a bright idea to use this on my Christmas cards! Kinda cute, dont' you think? The heart is from Doodlecharms.

Yayyy more faces! Snowflake is Joys of the Season, and snowman is Doodlecharms. Oh, the adorable sentiment, "Winter Wishes" I got free with the November/December issue of Papercrafts mag. Soo soo cute!

Cute little gingerbread man! He's from From my Kitchen. The sentiment, again, so cute! "Candycane wishes and gingerbread hugs" how sweet! 

Here he is close up... He is just so cute!

These last two are really plain and simple. Doesn't the girl figure make such a chique, stylish card? I made it at a free make-n-take at my LSS. Soo cute! I kinda want to get the Quickutz fashion doll set now... trying to be a good girl and not order any new craft stuff til after Christmas!

Have about 25 more cards to make.. a friend of mine asked me to make her some and I will happily oblige! After that, I am going to get started on a quote to put above my bed. I just got new furniture so I'm trying to get everything all

fixed up!

Friday Favorite Challenge

So today's challenge at 365 Cards was to make a card related to your favourite food! Hmm.. guess what I picked???
A cupcake of course !!! :) I used some scrap cardstock and KI memories patterned paper, Offray ribbon, dollarstore pearl bling and 2 new finds today - some paper rope and straight pins! The cupcake is from the From My Kitchen cart, and the sentiment is Stamping Bella. Love the colours on this! Nice, fresh and girly. I think sometime this weekend when I have time, I'm going to go over part of the frosting and add some stickles.

Off to my friends to get ready for a wedding this evening.. and then Lady GaGa tomorrow!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! No crafting until Sunday for me!!!

Some Sweet Cards

I just love these cards!

This one is sooo super cute. I used cuts from the Wild Card cart, which had previously been overlooked by me, as they're not the main images. SO CUTE! I need to make another of these, just love it!

Another cute one! This cupcake is from the From My Kitchen cart... so adorable! I used a Studio G stamp for the sentiment. Need to get me some more cute stamps!!! There is a sale on at my local scrap store this weekend... I don`t know if I will be able to control myself!

Easel cards are my new favourite, thanks to the use of my ScorPal (thank you Sharla!!!). This one was made for a cousins birthday. I used bic markers to colour the image. You can`t see it very well here, but there is some shading detail. I can`t afford copics, so the Bics are working out pretty well so far!

LOVE this one!!! I am going to make a few more next time I am crafting, just to have on hand. Again, used my Bic markers and some Studio G stamps.
