This stamp set is so fun, very whimsical and would be fun to use on a variety of projects!

Today I have a card created from Artfully Sent, inspired by a card that my Aussie CTMH sister Chris L created.  

I used the It's the Little Things stamp set to fill in the center of all the flowers.  The card Front is embossed with the Floral Embossing Folder.

I cut this pop up card and all it's elements at 7" out of Thistle and White Daisy Cardstock

Then I cut the flower pot image from the Sleeve Card at 7" out of Thistle and Chocolate Cardstock.  

The November Stamp of the Month is available from November 1-30.  It is only $5 with a $50 purchase on my website!

The next blogger in our hop is Pamela.  I know you will see amazing artwork from her and ALL the other consultants on this hop.

And my card:

I created this card using Artfully Sent, but created it at 4.25 x 5.5, standard card size.  I used Confetti Wishes Papers , Silver Shimmer Trim and Build A Cake stamp set.

Heart2Heart Sketch Challenge

This weeks' challenge at Heart2Heart is a Sketch Challenge.  

Here's my interpretation:

I used the Pathfinding Paper Pack, Pathfinding Workshop on the Go stamp set, Teal Shimmer Trim and Gold Sequins

When I stamped "Thankful" I inked the stamp with Goldrush Ink, then I swiped Cocoa ink over it, giving it a streaky look.  

Be sure to check out the sketch challenge over at Heart2Heart this week!

A-LO-HA!!! It's official!

It's official!!!!

I have earned my 3rd consecutive CTMH Incentive Trip!!  In February 2015, I will take my mom and my 2 kids on an all expense paid trip to the Disney Aulani Resort in Hawaii!  The kids are super excited, the hubs is bummed that he can't join us and mom is happy to take another trip with us!



OF COURSE, none of this would be possible without the loyal support of YOU, my friends and customers!  

So THANK YOU!!!!!!
