MIM take 3

This was super similar to my first card today.  A total Dawn CASE for the MIM challenge.  This one was a little more subtle.

It's a good life!

Garden Grace new to the house LOL!

I have been on a little stamp buying binge.  I read somewhere that when you don't have time to get crafty you end up buying more crafty items to sooth you creative side.  If that theory is correct you can count me in this month LOL!  I have had no time sense vacation until today.  You would blush if you saw all of the unloved stamps that have come in the last 3 weeks and I still have 3 packages on the way YIKES!!!

This was another MIM attempt Cece loved making the flowers and has a card that I will be uploading tomorrow.  Again it was embossing and then die cutting.  I had the new Altnew stamp set in there as well.  LOVING the big script words (tied to the wet paint set, but it wasn't available by the time I made my order last month).

It's a good life!

Dawn MIM knock off

I was excited to get up into the stamping room this week.  It felt good, but my mojo was definitely off so I totally cased a card that Dawn did from the last release.  This is for the MIM emboss first then stamp and die cut.  Fun to try a different order. 

It's a good life!

LOVE this stamp painting one :)

This is a  MIM challenge card for my good friend.  She is going though round two of chemo and fighting breast cancer again.  I love her so much and she needs some encouragement.  She is too hard on herself for what is going through.  This is the last one of the night!

It's a good life!

Birthday wishes

Loving this stamp set and the paint stamping.  I used a lot of water on this one to make the distress paints move.  This is for the MIM challenge.

It's a good life!

Paint stamping for the scrapbook

I am now officially done with January scrapbook.  I  actually used last months color challenge for this layout, but I'm not sure I love it.  I might be redoing these pieces, we will see if it grows on me LOL!  This is for the MIM challenge.  I used distress paints on all of my cards.  It was so much fun playing with this product.  It has been sitting in my stamping room for a long time neglected LOL!

Snow, Snow, Snow

I am now officially done with January scrapbook.  It was a lot of fun to put together.  February is going to be even easier because I have the MM kit to work with.  I just want to make sure I'm not using that instead of the kids artwork.

Happy Birthday SSS Wednesday blog challenge


5 years is a long time to keep up a challenge blog.  Many have come and gone.  I am so excited that the Simon Says Stamps Wednesday challenge blog is here and can't wait to wish them a happy birthday.  I made this one using some hero arts, sss, and pti stamp sets.  I also busted out the distress paint for the PTI MIM challenge.  I loved how the paint worked with the kraft cardstock.  This is also going into the A Blog Named Hero background stamp.  I did use a background and then added the balloons to make it unique and fun. 

Have a good night!

It feels good to be back!!!

I have been in a stamping hiatus!  It feels so good to be back in the stamping room today.  I was able to make three cards in time to get them submitted for the MIM challenge.  I used distress paints on all of my cards.  It was so much fun playing with this product.  It has been sitting in my stamping room for a long time neglected LOL!
 
Love the gold embossing and accents.
 
It's a good life!
