It's FRIDAY!! Time for the FWF Challenge over at Unity Stamp Co. This is a card that I made for my cousin. Because her birthday is July 4th, I decided that she probably gets tired of patriotic colors for birthday cards. So I decided that I would go with some colors that still slightly reflect the holiday, but give her some individuality for her birthday.   Materials:   Authentique-Celebrate Flower-Sassafrass Ribbons-Hobby Lobby Sentiment-Unity Stamp Co. Ink-Versafine-Onyx Black 

Today I want to share a challenge project that I am posting over at Crop Chocolate . About six weeks ago the website closed the retail side. I was disappointed. This website was the main reason I was able to afford my crafting craze!! I hadn't been over there for a while, so I decided to check in on the challenge and I have just discovered that the retail side will re-open with a different flair. I look forward to seeing what they have in store!! Ok...back to my challenge project. The challenge is to make something that is inspired by something that is your favorite. You are also supposed to use your favorite stamp. Well...the first part was a piece of cake! The second wasn't as easy. My favorite stamp!!! Ummmm....I have so many!!! So I decided to go with the stamp that I get the most use from...which would have to be a happy birthday stamp from Our Daily Bread Designs . I make TONS of birthday cards!!! Now...on to my inspiration. My inspiration is two fold. First, the pe...

I just discovered a challenge over at another one of my favorite stamp companies. Our Daily Bread Designs has this sketch challenge. And here's what I came up with: Materials used: Patterned papers and brads-My Mind's Eye Indie Chic Nutmeg papers, Bazzil cardstock, Bo Bunny Double Dot cardstock, Hug Snug ribbon, Spellbinders die, Silhouette die cut, Versafine Majestic blue ink, and of course my sentiment is from Our Daily Bread Designs (Birthday Blessings).

I've been trying to challenge myself to use more scraps lately and here's a card I put together last night for my nephew's birthday.  Here's my inspiration for this card.

It has been crazy, busy this month, but that hasn't stopped my mojo. I'd like to share some more of my recent work over the last couple of weeks. Some graduation cards, a birthday card, and some tags.   Here's my inspiration for this card.   Here's my inspiration for this card.   Here's my inspiration for this card. This is a picture of some tags that my friend, Lindy and I worked on together this last weekend. Hopefully we can get them posted in time for the 12 tags of 2013 May challenge at the Tim Holtz blog.  My tag is the red one and her tag is the blue one.

This is a birthday card for my cousin. I am going to enter it into the challenge at Unity Stamp Company.
