I am trying to get a lot done while work is slow & today I came across a sketch at 365 Cards with White Space.  Those who know me well know... White space & I aren't friends ;-)  But here's my creation:

oooo, I think I like it!
Products Used: patterned paperr - MME Lost & Found Market Street; ribbon - Making Memories Love Struck; heart  - CTMH Art Philosophy Cricut Cartridge; heart stamp & all ink - CTMH.

I got my MME Lost & Found Market Street & Making Memories Love Struck from CROP CHOCOLATE!

Friendship Blessings

Skipping Stones Design Sketch #91 is so basic it was almost hard to do but I think I created something that works.  Here's my creation:

I used Basic Grey Marjolaine 6x6 paper pad; Tim Holtz Faded Denim Ink Pad & Peeled Paint Stain; Friendship Blessings and Chocolate Ink Pad from CTMH

I got my Basic Grey Marjoline from CROP CHOCOLATE, delicious products at amazing prices!

Just Because

searching thru for a sketch to play with, I ran across one & made this creation:

I stickled the flowers to give them a bit more POP!  Here's the overall card:

I found the sketch at Scraps of our Life and know she sketched it for someone else but I just couldn't find a place to upload, hoping she gets back with me to do that.
Cardstock-Coordinations; Printed Papers - PAPERTREYink; flower stamp - Unity; Saying Stamp - Basic Grey Delta; inks - CTMH Topiary & Watermelon; Ribbon - Making Memories Flower Patch; Stickles & colored pencils

my last PPC as a Designer

my life has gotten very busy... first my job, our business finally hit the skids and with that we had to shut the doors to the fab place I've worked for the past 6 years BUT since my bosses are super guys, they found 4 of us jobs with another company.  We are incredibly busy, haven't been this busy in YEARS... something had to give.  Unfortunately, it's PPC. So I'm going out with a bang!  The Current color combo creation:

 The cute little stamp set I used was from MME Find & Dandy True Blue with Stampin Up ink. I stamped & fussy cut the flowers.

 The centers of the flowers are glittery brads from Making Memries.

Here is this week's color combo for ANY crafty item!  Go over to Picture Perfect Creations & show us what you've made :-)

The following is a little montage of what I think has been my best work with PPC over the past year+ as a Designer.... hope you enjoy it & please let me know which is your favorite!!

This week's Picture Perfect Creations challenge is a theme:  SUMMERTIME! That's right, make some kind of crafty creation & post over on the PPC blog :-)

a little help from a stranger

from far away... 

a scrappy friend told me of a family with two little boys, a mama & a sick daddy.  Unfortunately the sick daddy passed away.  But as scrappy friends do, we are working on some scrapbook pages for the mama to add photos of what precious little time daddy had with his two boys.  Daddy liked playing soccer so I made my pages in memory of his sport

It's hard to see but the white of the ball is glossy and looks amazing.  I hope they get a ton of joy from these simple pages.  I made two sets so each boy can have his own.

a Challenge of my own making

 Since I've become a Chocolatier for Crop Chocolate, I'm also on the Focus Group for Crop Chocolate kinda as a helper to Amber who runs the show.  Amber asked that I throw out a challenge to everyone on the Focus Group.  This was my inspiration pic:

and Here is my creation:

 butterfly deatils

 Make a wish....

 

It's hard to tell but after I embossed the dandelion, I added white flocking to make it fuzzy.  And I sent it to my friend Michele's daughter Hannah for her birthday.  I hope she loved receiving it as much as I loved creating it.

If you'd like to take the challenge & enter it using Mr. Linky below, I'll have a random drawing on Friday, August 26 noon CST.  Open to US & Canada.  PLEASE link directly to your creation post & not just your blog!

I was struggling with this, just didn't know what to do

so I punched our the 16 Very Vanilla hearts to make the flower, the grabbed my Concord Crush with one of those finger inker thingies and went to town inking away, once I put it together on my paper piercer... well, I loved it, snagged my brad & went "Wow"  lol
