Our Creative Corner Sketch

Happy Hump Day Everyone! I used a sketch from the Our Creative Corner blog to make today’s card. I wanted to use something different than an oval on the card for a change. I thought it would be a great change to use a hexagon. I went looking through my patterned paper and decided to use some of my Cutie Pie paper. I chose the colors for my image from the paper. After I stamped…

Black & White and Another Color

I created this card for a challenge I read yesterday. You were to use black, white, and one other color. When I was looking through the catalog I ran across the Fresh Cuts set and knew it would be good to use – and if you are like me you don’t use this set often as you are unsure of what to do with it.

It has been a while since I have done one of those so I thought I would give it a try. I needed a large image for the center panel and when I looked through my stamps I ran across Upsy Daisy. It has…

Tea Party Friend

Sorry for the late post today. My sister has been sick with a flue and she can’t shake it. Yesterday they put her in the hospital to run some tests. It is not the swine flu but they need to check things out. She will probably make her stay another day to make sure she can keep solids down. I just love the Tea Party DS paper. I have used it on several cards but…
