The Bike




Hello. Good Sunday to you. We are enjoying a busy weekend with two weddings and a craft show. Second wedding is today. Yesterdays wedding was great fun. It was an outdoor wedding and we got through the wedding and most of the reception before the rain dampened spirits, but everything was beautiful and we had a good time. Today's card (s) is a stamp by Printworks.
I made the card and then I made a slit in the basket of the bike to insert whatever you like. How fun is that? I am showing four different things inserted into the basket, the possibilities are endless. I have a series of small stamps with different bowls of fruit and I wanted to color the fruit and insert it, like strawberries, apples, etc, but ran out of time, but you get the idea. Oh, and thanks Stephanie for the cute little dragonfly charm, I LOVE it. He is kinda hard to see in the photo unless you click and enlarge, but in person he looks adorable. Have a great day and relax if you can. Thanks for stopping by. Until later..........

Magnolia Elf

Hello. I did not find the perfect dress, in fact, I didn't find an acceptable dress. I bought a summer dressy pant outfit, but it is long sleeved, so I don't know if I'll wear it to event or not, but I'll have it for another time (It was on sale and I liked it!) So now I am going to have to go through the closet and find something I have worn once before and settle for that. I did make a pit stop at Michaels, and they are redoing the stamp dept at our local one. A lot of the paper stacks (Garden Party by DCWV one of my favs) are clearanced for $ 7.99. Great buy. And they are putting in a lot of new paper stacks, so the trip wasn't for naught. Today's card is for the Magnolia Down Under Challenge, which was Christmas. I just got this little Elf at my LSS on Saturday (for 35% off, YEAH). The card is called a Stand Up Card (by Penny Wessenauer)
It was the featured Try a new Technique on Split Coast Stampers a week or so ago.Penny has a lot of templates and beautiful cards. I tried to link the post here, but try as I might it did not work. There is a link on SCS. Hope you're having a great Friday. Until later....

King of the Grill

Yikes, I hate when that happens. I cut a strip of paper two inches wide and centered it from corner to corner, then just trimmed the ends. Hope the rest of your Thursday is good. Thanks for stopping in. Until later.......

Monday BSS-Trifold Card Inspiration


Hi. Happy Monday. This card is for my local stamp store, Buffalo Stamps and Stuff. The inspiration for today is a Tri-Fold Card. Cut your cardstock 11" x 4 and 1/4". Score vertical
lines at 2 3/4" and 5 1/2 inches from the left end. A 2 1/2 inch x 4 inch piece of designer paper
will fit the front panel. A 5 1/4"x 4" piece will fit the inside panel. Decorate your card any way
you like. I used Basic Gray, Urban Prairie papers. On the front panel, I ran the designer paper
through a quickutz embossing folder (diamonds). The Stamps are House Mouse. The ovals are
Marvey scalloped oval punches, medium and small. The swirl is sizzix and the pearls are Kaiser.
The inside sentiment is Paperbag Studios. You can stamp an image and color it and adhere it to a slightly larger piece of cardstock leaving a narrow border. Remember to only adhere the left half of your image or words if you want it to hang over the card like the words Prima Ballerina.
It's a pretty simple cut and fold, for a different look to your cardmaking. Enjoy your Monday.
Until later..........

Tilda with Bird

For some reason this card just did not want to go together. Did you ever have one of those nights? I must have had every piece of paper I own out and didn't like anything. I just got this image yesterday at my local stamp store and was excited to use it. Card is just ok, but I spent so much time on it, I thought I should at least blog it. You know the saying, sometimes it's Art, sometimes it Aren't!! Have a great rest of the day. Thanks for stopping by. Until later..........
