Sweet Challenges

So excited to have a chance to WIN Sweet Stamp Shop's first CHALLENGE!

I used the new release, It's a Man's World and paired it with two older sets:

Melvin and Vernie and Sweet Alpha Doodles.

When I saw the bow ties in the new set, I couldn't wait to try one on Melvin.

AND just look how adorable he is:

He definitely looks like a fancy workin' Dad! :)

Thanks for stopping by, and as always, I enjoy receiving your feedback

so go ahead and leave me a comment.

A Little Birdie Told Me...

I need to just get to it, this stamp has been burning a hole in my pocket for MONTHS!

Isn't she just a SWEETHEART?!

Well, I think she's perfect. :)

You can find the Unity set with her in it HERE

I imagine this will be a Birthday card...

but it is blank inside in case I change my mind.

Just one more thing a SHOUT OUT to my Spellbinders.

I use them on almost every card I make. I LOVE them!!!

I should definitely invest in a few more, just to change it up.

Thanks for looking. Be blessed!

Full of Scrap!

Well I got your attention! ha!

When I buy those 6x6 paper packs I feel like I have so many little scraps...

I only buy the packs that I really love, so I hate throwing away any of it.

Solution:

I used my circle punch to savor each scrap and mixed up the patterns.

I added some Walnut Stain distress ink to the edges to make sure they popped off the kraft background.

I love the frame, it's a Sweet Stamp Co. goodie from the Sweet Alpha Doodles Set.

...a chunky twine bow held with Glossy Accents and I'm done!

Successful use of teeny tiny lovely scraps!

May Joy Always Find You

Happy Sunday!

Seems Sundays have become my only day to get crafty lately...boo!

I took some time to build a photo cube to help take better pictures.

I sure hope my readers will notice a difference as I practice using it.

Here's a little CAS card:

These are some scraps I just couldn't part with and

how perfect is this sweet Unity Stamp Co. sentiment?

I added gems with  my iRock tool to fill in the extra space.

I am totally on the 'banner' bandwagon, however, those adorable fishtail ends

can make this perfectionist go a little nuts so I went for a little variation.

Hope you like it!
