Time to Craft!

It has been so long since I posted to this blog. I've been in a real crafting slump :(  I just could not seem to find the creativity, time or energy to craft. I have several unfinished projects sitting on my desk right now. I finally sat down and made myself finish a card for my cousin's b-day. My coloring is not the best, but it felt good just to have my copic markers in my hand once again. I love this saturated canary digi. What better way to try and get my mojo back!

Recovering Benton

Today I used my Recovering Benton stamp for the second time. It seems that I have had the need for get well cards lately. I also used my brand new tear drop circle spellbinder die. The paper is Grandma's Attic Collectibles that I had left over after completing cards for a swap. The sketch was from the weekend challenge over on the SOC site and I will be sending the card to one of the sistahs on the site who is need of warm wishes.

Pickles & Ice Cream

My niece is pregnant with her first child. I made this card to welcome baby Ashton into the world. I found this cute image on the Saturated Canary site. The sketch that I used came Mojo Monday. I plan to enter this card into this week's  Saturated Canary challenge along with this week's Mojo Monday challenge. If it's not too late I will also enter it into the Anything Goes challenge on CMC.

Not feeling beary good?

I made this card for a scrapping sista who is under the weather. The sketch I used is from MFT. I used my new Memory Box Quinn Flourish die with some MME Paris & Co paper. This cute little guy is Recovering Benton from Inky Antics.  I plan to enter this card in the CMC challenge.

Mojo 231


I created this card using mojo monday sketch #231. I am also entering this card into Mema's March challenge. Mema's challenge was to use your favorite color combo. I like to use black and cream together but I thought I would add just a touch of red to make it pop a bit.
This card is for my sister. I wanted to remind her that God is always there when we need him. The red was for her as well as it is her favorite color.

A Thank You Card

I made this card for my son's teacher. She goes above and beyond the call of duty so I felt a small thank you was very necessary. I already had this cute little image ready to go as I colored her in Suzanne Dean's class. This card will also be entered into this month's challenge over on Mema's blog.

Where the River Runs 2


Here I go again with another card for the CMC Bookendz group. This is the second card I created after reading Where the River Runs. The quote is just a reminder that when a person passes, not all memories are bad. Sometimes the memories are just what we need to get through the hard times.
