Thank you card


I just love kraft paper! I'm not really sure why but it might be that it work well with everything. This card speaks to my love of craft and of red...fun to make.

Use your Stash Blog Hop










Welcome! If you are joining us from Tonya's blog you are in the right place!
Our focus for April is ribbon! I've been working on Disney pictures and had some fun using sunset ribbon as an accent. This is Lucky paper- one of my favorites. I used the sunset mini medley for the ribbon and metal photo clips and but then added some bronze sliders (from the bronze mini medley) for some contrast. I love how the orange stands out with the darker colors. This was my husband's favorite ride but I have to say, I was the one too chicken to do it!

Now head on over to Judy Faye to check out what she did!

April Technique Hop


Hello everyone! If you are joining us from Kimberly's blog at http://crazy4scrappin.blogspot.com you are in the right place to continue with the technique hop.

This month we focused on the window layering technique found on page 33 of the idea book. Since one of my favorite people is turning seven this week, I made a birthday card for her! I used Sweet Leaf paper for the base card, vanilla cream for the layer and cotton candy ink. The polka dots inside the present were random stamped using the "Hit the Spot" stamps while the letters are the "Polka Dot Alphabet." Then, I finished the card off with sparkles- every girl loves a little bling!
