Spring Basic Grey

Happy Sunday, I am such a stamping/blogging on the weekend kind of girl LOL! This is for the great spring color challenge over at the Basic Grey challenge blog.
I busted out some Lime Ricky paper on this one. I also used some fabulous Paper Smooches stamps.

It's a good life!

Make It Sunday.....

One day I will actually make thses Make it Monday challenges on a Monday LOL! I am working on anothet set as well, we will see if I can get it done and up today. I really liked the step it up challegne this week. I must say I really couldn't make the third version on this one, it was just too much stuff LOL! For both, I went with the CASual Friday sketch challenge. That was a lot of fun and I am hoping to make another with that challenge as well.
On this one, I die cut the cloud and added a lot of paper piercing to step it up. 
It's a good life!

You turn me on!!!

This is my second challenge card of the day. I'm not sure if I will get back up to the stamping room, but I do want to try. Anyway, I just had too bust out the fun Boob tube stamp set.

There is something about that pop of orange in the inspiration piece that really spoke to me. I thought it would be fun to make it look that TV was "on" just like the sentiment. I am going to have fun putting these in Randy's car the next few days.  This beauty is going in the Sparks Challenge site and the guest designer challenge sitehttp://papersmooches.blogspot.com/2012/04/may-guest-designer-search.html as well. 

It's a good life!

Felt Irises

I am loving this weeks Make it Monday on making flowers out of other dies. I have been loving irises for a long time and it turns out that the bookmark end die really fits the bill for me.
I combined this with the color throwdown challenge this week. The brown is in the bakers twine that is in the button. I am tackling a MAJOR decluttering project in my room. My reward is going up to stamp with my new Paper Sooches stamp. Hopefully you will see the new creations today :)

It's a good life!

Gratitude Flower

Well I am back again tonight for another fun card. I combined some fun challenges for this beauty. The first challenge is the Make it Monday challenge. I made this flower with the balloon die. Izzy used some for her flower as well. I used the Color Q challenge this week as well. It is hard to see, but the red is on all of the flower edges.
For the sketch, I used the clean and simple card sketch found here. Lastly, I will be entering this beauty in the Simon Says flower challenge. Wow, that was a lot. Have a wonderful night.
It's a good life!

Sparks Challenge

I am so excited to share some fun cards.  The first is my card that I am entering in the Paper Smooches Sparks Challenge.  I love the inspiration this time around.  I found the colors so much fun and a little excentric.  I LOVE the stamp set Perpetual Bliss.  It is so fun and playful.  I can't wait for more time to create. 
This is Izzy's creation. She LOVES this new background set from Paper Smooches. I must say she is the one who saw the crosses in between the squares. How fun is she? The flower is one that she made for the Make it Monday challenge. She used balloon dies to make the flower petals.   I will be back with mine in a bit. 
I am also going to enter Izzy's card in the Simon Says flower challenge

It's a good life!

Tough MIM for me LOL!!!!!

This week it was all about making your own sentiments on the computer and using dies with it. I must say I am not a make my own sentiment kind of girl. Then I remembered that our anniversay is coming up and I needed a card for my hubby. 
This is what I came up with. 93 or bust is our little thing, it is on the inside of his wedding ring actually, so while not normal at all, it is perfect for us.   I am also really into the creative chemistry 101 class.  I must say it is super fun to make, but I have a hard time putting it on the card when I am done.  Hopefully that will come together at some point. 

It's a good life!
