MPS NSD Challenge #2

My Pink Stampers 2nd NSD challenge was to make a project using your scraps!  This card I made for my fiances Mom for Mother's day... it looks VERY similar to the last card, because it is made entirely from scraps from the card I made for Challenge #1!!!

These challenges are so fun!! I'm loving it!

MPS NSD Challenge #12

I worked 7a-7p on National Scrapbook day, so I am only going to be able to participate in a few of My Pink Stamper's NSD challenges.  :( 

I started at the bottom and worked my way up. The last challenge was to use a critter or animal on your project, so I decided to make my mom this cute Mothers Day card!

Hope you like it!

Paisley Card Feature

Today was such a gloomy day, definitely didn't make me feel any better! I did make up my test that I missed today and think it went really well!! I ventured to Archivers to use some coupons that expired today and ended up spending way more money than I intended to!! But it was a pretty good deal. I got a Bazill By the Box set (100 sheets of Bazill textured cardstock), a journaling spot stamp set (I can finish up the Ouch! page now!), and some buy 3 get 3 free cardstock.

Back to the real reason for today's post! I experimented with the card feature on the adorable Paisley cartridge and wanted to share it with you!

Here is the front! I just LOVE this card feature. They are so super cute!

Here is the inside. I double matted the 2 larger sides and added some Primas in the corner for a little decoration. Did I mention that I love these cards?!?

This is the back and shows how the cards close. I think you could make some neat cards using this feature, and they give you lots of room for writing if you have lots to say, or a place to stamp a sentiment/poem.

Hope you like it!!

Thank You Card

For Valentine's Day Wyatt surprised me with WAY too much Cricut supplies. I made a little wish list on customcrops.com and the stinker bought ALL of it. This included 3 cricut cartridges: Paisley, Sweet Treats, and Doodlecharms and the My Pink Stamper Stamp sets Everyday OcCasions and Simply Sweet Occasions. When the box arrived I just had to play with them, so I made him a Thank You card.

The frog is from Paisley cricut cartridges, one of the MANY cute images on this cartridge. I seriously love it. The stamp is from My Pink Stampers Simply Sweet Occasions stamp set. I love love love her stamps. They are made to go with the cricut in that they are much smaller sentiments than you normally find. I love it. I was always complaining that my stamps were too big. I can't wait to see her 3rd and 4th sets!

I used my trusty Swiss Dots Cuttlebug folder on the frog to give him some texture. I really want the Tiny Bubbles embossing folder for this, but I can't find it anywhere!! As always, the frog is popped up on Pop Dots. Today Wyatt informed me that Pop Dots are my "trademark." How funny, if only he knew about the rest of the bloggers out there. But I'm surprised he noticed how much I use them!
