Vegas baby

Had written down this color combo way back, when using the online Color Combo site located here.
I have carried it around on a piece of paper and had it near my stamping stuff for a while. Finally had this card come to life. It was for my friend before she went on a trip to Vegas. The warm sun in the card is supposed to be tempered by the cool breeze in the background.

fall is the best

Went out this past week to find my favourite Yankee Candles for fall- Pumpkin Spice. Have been burning it off and on for the past 10 days I guess. It is beginning to feel like fall. The leaves on the trees have some changes and I love it all!! I am a fall girl!! It is my season that I find great delight in, which is ironic for a girl who doesn't really like change. Pulled out some cute patterned paper and these fall stamps that I had bought last year and went to creating this past week on my days off. So here are the two fall cards I did.

Patterned paper- KI, Swirl stamps-Autumn Leaves, Pumpkin and oval stamps - Amuse, Word stamps- Stamping Up. Cardstock- Sahara Sand, More Mustard, Cranberry Crisp- Stamping Up. Ink- Stampin Up Classic inks More mustard, Chocolate chip, True Thyme. Ribbon- SU True Thyme. Punch- Marvy. Other Circle Cutter.

Okay, so the trees in real life aren't this colour yet, I was imagining a later fall for this card. :) This card size is 4 1/2 x 4 1/4. Just something new for a change.

Patterned paper- KI, Cardstock- Chocolate Chip, Pumpkin Pie, Sahara Sand, Whisper White- SU. Ink- Classic Ink SU Chocolate Chip. Stamps- Lovely as a Tree set-SU, Small Script- SU. Oval Punches- SU, Brad- unknown, Other Colored the tree with my Twinkling H2O's.

Camp Creations

So I spent two weeks as camp nurse at the end of July and beginning of August. It was fantastic. In my spare time though I got to make several cards as I had taken supplies with me. I ended up with several cards that I was quite pleased with. I even made this book mark which I used while reading my book for the week at camp: Bloodletting and Miraculous Cures by Vincent Lam.

Made with scraps from my SU cardstock pile, a pink brad and a Bazzill flower.

Birthday Beauty

Made this card for my sister and mailed it 2 weeks ago, so hopefully she has already seen it in her hands before seeing it here. :P

my little bunny friend

My new bunny friend. Yes this cottontail is living in my yard. It is hardly big enough to fit in two hands and it is so fast. Sorry the picture is so far away. But I think if I got any closer the bunny wouldn't be in picture at all. S/he kept me amused all weekend.

Tri-fold cards

I had to try out my new circle stamps from Art Warehouse as seen here and here. The outer swirl, inner forever, and the journaling spot are from these two sets by limited edition rubber stamps. Found them in Squamish, BC on my recent trip with the girls from work at a local scrapbooking store. The owner was a sweetheart. I was so pleased with the store, I only wish it were closer. Hmm, maybe I need monthly trips to Whistler and Squamish? Loved the fact that I found new, not seen before stamps!!

This circle quote stamps is from the Creating Keepsakes monthly kit from May by Ali Edwards. The flower stamp is Stampin Up. Cardstock is from my stash and also SU.

happiness is scallops!!

Junkitz Card kit

Bought this Junkitz card kit from a local store Scrapbook City in January on sale. Was sold as an autumn card set. In celebration of the new SU "Fall/Winter" catalog, I went ahead and put them together this long weekend. I was pleased that I had enough scraps to do some other cards, see below. he, he. Okay, so nine other cards. *grin* That doesn't include these!

Card kit scraps

So once I got on a roll this weekend, I really got on a roll. I played for 3 days. I watched movies and I played with my stamps. I pulled stamps out that hadn't seen the light of day in years. It was fantastic!! I am excited by these because they are masculine and that doesn't occur often enough when I pull out my stuff to stamp. I am quite pleased with them overall. And pleased that I used my scraps. Seriously only minuscule amounts of patterned paper survived from this kit.
