I love black eyed susan’s! I seem to use them a lot this time of year. I had fun creating the large and small flowers with the punches. I began with selecting my color challenge. I decided to use the colors from the Color Throwdown blog. You were to use dark brown (Chocolate Chip), Kraft, Old Olive, dark yellow (Summer Sun). When I saw those colors I just knew I needed to make black eyed…
Good Afternoon! I had some more color and sketch challenges I wanted to participate in so I hit the craft room again. The first was the color challenge at Diva Coffee Break Designs. You were to use Crushed Curry, Dusty Durango, Garden Green, and Kraft. I have to admit when I saw this color combination my first thought was “Ugh, what can I do with this”!

I found a great tutorial on how to make this scrap book at Inking Addict Designs. Paula does a great job with her directions and the pictures make it clear what you need to do. I did modify my belly band. I used stick on velcro dots to hold mine closed. I didn’t…

I think it is so cute. The first challenge I used as the color challenge from the Color Dare blog. You had to use Always Artichoke, Creamy Caramel, Elegant Eggplant, and Pumpkin Pie. I thought these would make great Halloween…
I have seen quite a few cute mini photo albums online that I have been wanting to make. The other day Roxy at Stamping With Roxy posted the cutest accordion photo album I just had to make. I spent last night using her video to make my version. I had a lot of paper from the bulk buy Sunshine Garden Simply Scrappin’ kit that I used to make this. It is soooooo cute. Hope you…
Second Post, scroll down for the first! I used my learning curve from yesterday’s background piece to make my card today (I actually had this idea occur to me about the same time as the one for yesterday’s card). I used a different spectrum pad (Creole Spice) on this background. I love the Happy Blessings set (especially the scarecrow) and was so upset it didn’t make the new catalog. I do not have any current…
