Playing with Flower Soft!

Have you tried the FLower Soft stuff yet? I just got some last week and LOVE it! Very fun and easy to work with! Here is my card:



I used the label four nesties that I got from Stampers Dream once again too on this one, really like that shape! For the flowers, I used stamps from the Elegant Flowers set from Gina K Designs that is in the Floral Frenzy Kit. I used my SU! markers to ink the stamp up, in a light color, and then just dabbed glue on the flower area, sprinkled the flower soft on that and its done! FUN! Love the look of it!

WEll its TGIF!! I got a special surprise coming on Tuesday of next week, can't wait to share with you! So I gonna be working on that alll weekend. Hopefully DH will leave me alone and not want to go running around everywhere. He is bugging me right now to go to I-HOP, but that dont take much bugging....off to find some pancakes!! haha!!

My first Sarah Kay card.

Remember I said I went to my sister's over the weekend and met Michelle? Well, she has an online store, Stamper's Dream and how can you meet somebody that has a store like hers and NOT buy something, right? LOL! I got this Sarah Kay stamp from her, among other things, such as the white paper on here, which is Neenah Classic Solar white in the 110lb weight AND the Labels 4 nesties that I used on this card...here is the card:



Isnt that image the cutest?! All of the Sarah Kay images remind me of my daughter when she was little. I need more of them now! I've made a list too of which ones I am gonna get, LOL! I also tried for the first time on this card the Neenah Classic Solar white paper, 110lb weight, and I LOVE it for working with copics! I had been wanting to try it for the longest and am so glad I got it now. It works like I want it too! I like the ink to soak into the paper most of the time when I use copics because that is the way I learned to blend with them. And its a really good weight too.

Ok, that's it for today! Thanks for stopping by...I think I have lost some that used to, maybe just because it was Easter weekend and spring break for alot...but I do miss the comments, lol.
Have a beautiful Tuesday tomorrow!

Yucky and raining here and daughter had to work, sooo...but I did go visit my sister yesterday and I got to meet Michelle from Stampers Dream !! OMG, what an awesome sweet person Michelle is! So down to earth and we talked like we had known each other forever! LOL! What fun that was! Hiii Michelle!! Luvs ya lady, you are awwesome!!

But for now, here is the card I made for an example for the sketch challenge on StampTV

I'm distressed!

Not really! Well, my card is though! LOL! This weeks CAS challenge at SCS was to distress and I had such a hard time with that! Cause I really don't do either very well, CAS and distressing on cards, but I gave it an attempt, here it is:


This stamp is from one of the stamp sets I received for winning that Stamp It! challenge, its from Lizzie Anne Designs (think I spelt it wrong on the card, ss!)
I also used the new technique video at Stamp TV today, Emboss Resist. What a fun technique that is! And then I used the colors from this weeks Color Throwdown...see I'm not the only one into pink and greens right now, lol! I will probably do another card using this technique, I really enjoyed doing it, but as with all CAS cards, I always want to add more, them pearls snuck in there...lol.

Hope you are having a wonderful Hump Day! On the down hill swing now for the week! yay! Thanks for stopping by!

Oh my! It's been a week since I posted! My bad!! I have had a bit of personal stuff going on...daughter and her problems. To make a long story short, I've had my grandson here, and I got to say KUDOS! to all you moms out there with little ones that can stamp and take care of them too, lol! BUT, things are getting a bit better now, so I should be back to posting normally once again!

Here is a card I got made today. I used the sketch challenge and the color challenge posted at Stamp TV for this week:



I still feel like that green area needs something, but I tried several different things and didnt like none of them so just went ahead and finished it up, lol!

By the way, if you haven't heard about Stamp TV and joined, you really should! Besides being such an awesome place to learn, wonderful resources and videos, there are 5 challenges a week, and each on challenge you have a chance to win a free stamp set!

AND coming in May, is an online magazine called 'Stamping Lifestyle' and here is the link to read about it:

Ok, I think that is about all for tonight. It took me forever to get my camera to upload this evening, for some reason it wouldn't. I had to completely uninstall the software and reinstall...bleh.. pain in the booty, but at least it's working now! I was worried there for a bit, lol!
Hope you are having a wonderfully create week and thanks for stopping by and I am so sorry for being such a bad blogger this past week! Thanks for all that have hung in there with me!
