ColourQ #352



Hello...so happy today, I am heading to San Diego today to hang out with some of the sweetest ladies, so excited! So just a quick post with my card for the new color palette at ColourQ #352, the colors are wonderful and I am in love with the dress in the inspiration photo! I hope you will find the time to play along with us this week. Thank you so much for taking the time to stop by...enjoy your day!



I am also entering this in the Papertrey Ink's Stamp-A-Faire, Color Blocking. I changed it up a bit but still love the look of these fabulous soup cans!

Papertrey Ink Stamp-A-Faire


SAF-2016-logo

Hello...Happy Saturday and Happy Stamp-A-Faire! My sister came over for a craft day today and while she knitted, I made 2 cards.  We spent way more time chatting and eating and not too much time crafting. But I do feel good to have 2 cards made, 2 more than I had planned to make. 

My first card is for Amy Sheffers Starry Night. Amy's card is simply amazing, and I love trying to recreated her masterpiece. My "stars" took FOREVER to day, I finally had to finally dab them off! But in the end I am very happy with my card.

Amy's Card


I did not have any black paint so I had to improvise and use a city scape die instead. It is hard to see but I added silver WOS on the sparkle die and I used it to add a few more stars in the sky.

My second card is a watercolor card...I pretty did just what Kay Miller did, love the incredible look she created, so fun to watch her video!

Since my sister was here I had her take a photo of me and my 2 cards and since this was about the Masters I had her alter my photo a bit....


Thank you so much for taking the time to stop by...enjoy the rest of your weekend!

Stamp-A-Faire and so much more!

       SAF-2013-Logo       
What a fabulous 2 days, so much to do and even more, so much fun.  There were times when I was laughing so hard that I had tears in my eyes. So fun to spend time relaxing and crafting with friends.  I have a few photos to share of our day and several cards to share too that need to be added to a few of yesterday's PTI challenges.  It was so much fun to meet Marybeth from Marybeth's Time for Paper and see Cathy again from Empty Nest Crafter so sweet and so funny! We all wished that Tracey from In My Creative Opinion would have been there with us so we all decided to CASe her first card of the day, it was so much fun and then after we worked the bugs out of Face Time we all got to chat for a bit in the afternoon. Such a treat.
Joyce is the sweetest hostess and made sure we all had everything we needed for a fun day and if you ever get the chance to see her incredible room, you will be amazed. She is about as organized as they come and has just about everything craft supply there is which makes it very easy to make any type of card you want.
I have 3 cards and several photo's to share so without any further chatting here they are.  Thank you so much for taking the time to stop by to peek at my cards....have a fabulous week.


Friday afternoon we thought it would be fun to make a few cards, but we only made one each.  We both used the new PTI Mum's the Word, it is a beautiful set.



 We also went for a walk to the beach, the weather was so beautiful.  Can you imagine living so close to the beach you can just walk to it? So fun!

Gallon, Quart and Pint Challenge


Marybeth was sweet enough to bring some of her new stamps, so we all were able to play with the new PTI coffee set, so much fun. Since I do not color, I used the stacked coffee cups as a background stamp and love the way it turned out.


We really spent more time chatting than crafting and for some reason we still had quite the mess.  This photo is the one I am using for the PTI Stamp-A-Faire Closing Ceremony, what better way to end a fabulous day than with a big mess.

 This card is one I made before my trip for today's PTI Blog Hop. My plan was to get more than one card made but needless to say that did not happen and I was just happy to have one to enter. I don't use browns much when stamping but I have to say I was pretty happy with the way my card turned out. So back to the real world again and looking forward to another summer Stamp-A-Faire event.
