PTI - Celebrating the Past, Present & Future 2012

Hello....another quick post with my card for today's PTI - Celebrating the Past, Present & Future 2012. I pulled out Sentiment Signs and added some Fancy Flourishes and then a wee bit of bling! 

Thank you so much for taking the time to stop by....enjoy your day!

Retro Sketches #115

I know I am a day late with my post...and how could I have forgotten to make a card with this??? It was my card that the sketch was done for...such a dope! Really, how cool is it to have a sketch made from your card? I felt so bad when my sweet friend Joyce asked what was up. It had been a crazy week, with the heat, allergies and just not feeling good, I have not spent much time in my craft room. So I finally have my card ready to go and Arielle from Retro Sketches could not be sweeter and more understanding. You have plenty of time to play along with Retro Sketches challenge #115 and I can't wait to see all your fabulous creations! You can see my first card that this was patterned after here. Thank you so much for stopping by...enjoy the rest of your weekend!

Papertrey Ink's MIM #104 Handmade Pinwheels and RetroSketches #51

Today I have two cards to share, one for PTI's Make It Monday and one for this week's RetroSketch's challenge. On both cards I decided to pull out stamps that had not been used before.

For this week's MIM Ashley taught us how to make pinwheels out of a piece of square paper, it was so quick and easy to make. I adhered two pieces of patterned paper together to have 2 colors but next time I would use a piece of double sided paper, it would not be as thick and easier to fold over. Head of to Nichole's blog and take a peek at all the wonderful creations that have these adorable little pinwheels on them. 

My second card is for RetroSketches I used a stamp from Market Street with a camping theme and pulled out patterned paper from last years Stamp-A-Faire to match.
