St Patricks Day

Wow - it is hard to believe it is March already - where is this year going!?!? I am hoping that since March came in like a lion this year that it will be going out like a lamb.  I am getting tired of snow and I am ready for spring to come! 

This is a card that I have done for The Play Date Cafe's Challenge of B & W and splash of ANY color and CARDS blog of St. Patrick's Day card.

 The fact that it was a St Patricks Day card kinda made the color choice quite easy :-)  but I love the crispness of the green against the white - (can you tell I am ready for spring - and a little color!)  I have been playing a bit more with my Cricut lately, and used a label template from Penny Duncan Creations for the main label.  She has some great files out there - I had been itching to play with some of them.  I will definetly be playing with more in the future!

Rockin around the Christmas Tree.....

Hello everyone - Everyone enjoying the crazy weather lately?!  Up here we are currently digging out of the snow the Midwest was so nice to send our way :-)  I am not thrilled with it all - but the dogs are in thier glory!  The only good thing, if it keeps up like this, we are definitely having a white Christmas!  Todays card is for the Play Date Cafe and Cards Magazine Blog challenges.  I love using the non traditional colors and blues and purples are my faves. (I have used both as themes in my x-mas decorating!)  For the tree - I played around with my embossing powder and used three different colors to echo the patterned paper.

Hi All!  Just a quick post to share with you a card I did for the Cards Magazine Blog.  This weeks challenge was to make a mini card.  How cute and fun are they to make!  They are a great way to use up some scraps too - I used a bit of Basic Grey paper I had left over from another project to add a little color. Quick and Easy - can't get any better than that!

Hello all! Sorry to be neglecting my little corner of the net, but my Grandmother has been ill, so that has been sapping my mojo lately. 

I did get this little confection done for The Play Date Cafe challenge and for Verve's Friday challenge over at SCS.
