WOYWW!


Heres whats on my desk for this weeks Whats on your workdesk wednesday . I am working on thank you cards for work. For anyone that doesnt know I have recently transferred to a brand new office and our theme is Peacocks. So I got this stamp set from stampin up with this peacock and used this thankyou from stampin up also. So we are giving out thank you cards with starbucks gift certificate to all our patients. I went with this really simple card. One to cut down on cost and two because most people will probably just throw them away anyway.
But I liked how it turned out. I dont this I have ever made a card this simple.
Happy Stamping!

Your're Wheely Great!

This stamp set if from Taylored Expressions. I used the matching die to cut out the car. I also used some spellbinders dies. I was going to use more 70's type of papers but I couldnt find any to match what I had in mind. So I went with these papers instead.
I went onto the gallery at Taylored Expressions site and combined a few great cards I found there. This is a really great site for inspiration. Taylors dies are really easy to use. They match great with the stamps and now you can buy sets that actually come with the dies all in one.
Happy Stamping!

Hoot Hoot Hooray!

This is another card I cased. No original ideas this last weekend. This is from the Taylored Expressions team. The set is Hoot Hoot Hooray. It comes with dies to match right with the set. I used some fun glimmer paper from Michaels with the owls on it. It also has caterpillars and frogs on the paper too and is very colorful. The border die along the bottom is also from TE.

Lil Inkers!

Here is another card I have had in my stash to case for some time. I dont have the stamps but went over to stamp with my sis on saturday and realized she does. So I borrowed her stamps and I think I cased this from Pickled Paper Designs. This stamp set is from Lil Inkers. They have clear stamps and matching dies. The little clouds I already had are from Memory box. I think this card would make a great birthday card for a cat lover.

Happy Stamping!

ICE OR SNOW????


This is our front yard and street this morning! I cant tell if it is just frost or if it snowed. My hubby said the streets are fine but he leaves around 3am so I dont know if it looked like this when he left this morning. It was 29 degrees when I got up and then dropped to 28. Very CHILLY!
I feel like I should be home making penquin cards today but I am off to work instead!

Whiff Of Joy!

This cute little girl and kittie are sitting on a bench enjoying a cup of cocoa. They look so happy. The weather here has been really cold so I can totally relate to how cold it looks in this little picture. This image is from Whiff Of Joy. They have some darling stamps. Especially the line with Henry. I have a few of those I have used I need to pull out. They are more summery tho but maybe I could do one and pretend I am on a warm tropical beach somewhere.
I used some cocoa cup papers from my stash I have had forever. It goes perfect with the Lucky Limeade and Cherry Cobbler SU papers and ribbons.

I"ll be Brief!

This is another card using my new Peddlers Pack stamps. Its hard to read the sentiment but it says "I'll be brief, Happy Valentines Day!. Maybe I will give this to my hubby. I used the brief stamp to make my own background paper stamping it in red and SU red glitter paper. I colored the briefs and then added some glitter and cut them out and mounted them on the circle.
Happy Stamping!

Hearts!

I have some new samples with Peddlers pack cards. This heart stamp and greeting are both from Peddlers Pack. I colored it with copics and then cut it out. The die cut hearts are from Spellbinders and Memory box. I also used a Martha Stewart punch along the edge.

Winter!

Boy is it ever winter here! Icy and cold in the mornings. It has barely been getting to 32 degrees during the day. Its supposed to be sunny but the fog doesnt lift high enough to burn off so its not much.
Anyway, here is a whippersnapper stamp. It looks pretty frosty too. I colored it with copics. Added some snowflakes with my new snowflake punches I got on sale at michaels for really cheap.

Mo Manning!

So I am working with pictures again!! Yeah!
This cute little guy is from Mo Manning. I think he is called something like Winter Fairy Halla. Not positive on that tho.
He is a digi image I got at the end of the year last year and I didnt want to make anymore winter cards. So I made him up of this winter. 
I used some snowflake glitter paper I got at Michaels. It is very pretty and sparkly. I also used a snowflake punch and put some blue rhinestones in the middle of them. I added some glitter so this card is very sparkly in real life.
I think there should be a saying on the inside like send you some warm winter kisses because he his blowing his warm breath up in the air and making more sparkles.
Happy Stamping!

Still No Photos!

So  I have tried several other ways to load photos unto this site but no luck. It says I can use Picasa so I tried to download it. Didnt work! Then I realized I have it on my laptop so I loaded my photos already on this computer onto my laptop. That didnt work either. Then it says I can use a URL so I loaded some pictures on facebook thinking I can use that URL. No luck there either.
So if anyone is interested they can see a few of my latest cards on my facebook page!

Woof You 2!

This is another LOTV card inspired by Nixe . She has the bestest creations ever. I used Woof You again. She had two cards with him. Blue and pink. I was lucky enough to have the exact pink papers she used but I used a different striped one that you can hardly see on this card. I also used one of my Heartfelt creation dies for the butterfly I had never used before and when I was looking for flowers I found these pink ones the EmmaLou gave me when I demoed at their heartfelt booth last year at the convention. I cant believe its been so long ago now and the conventions are coming up in a couple of months again. Dont you just love the lace on this card???  It is out of the new SU mini catty. The only drawback is that is comes with a bunch of embellies and I will only have enough to do three cards with it.
Well off to stamp some more!
Happy Stamping!
