There She Goes Release Week | Day Four

It's the last day of sneak peeks for There She Goes release week. This set is totally awesome. I have four cards to share so enjoy!


Our final set this month is another FABULOUS creation from Torio. Made to coordinate perfectly with the previously released Make A Splash stamp set, this set if perfect for not only making cards, but scrapbooking your family vacations, and summer beach trips!

Beach Bum is a 6x8 set that includes a total of 19 stamps and will sell for $24.00.

For my cards these are not my original idea. I was on Karen Giron's blog and saw these four cards with similar images and just fell in love and wanted a set of my own. So I was excited that I could make some. I totally CASEd her work...I just couldn't do the stitching. I love these cards!!

There She Goes Release Week | Day Three

Welcome to day three of the There She Goes release week.

I took today's images and went a completely different direction...


No sweeter treat, or better way to Enjoy Life in the summer time than an ice cream cone, am I right? Well, Torico has made a FABULOUS set of mix and match patterns of ice cream, and their cones, for you to custom make your own YUMMY treats! And even better, we have custom made our own Die’s to go along with this FABULOUS set!!!

Enjoy Life is a 4x4 set that includes a total of 11 stamps and will sell for $10.00 

Enjoy Life Dies include 3 dies will sell separately for $8.25

Enjoy Life Dies - There She Goes Clear Stamps

As you can see I took this set in a completely different direction. My life is based on the school calendar and I am thinking about the first holiday that will take place at school - Halloween. When I saw the Enjoy Life set - I immediately saw one the of stamps as a big candy corn - and that's where I took my project. I used the die to cut out the "cone" and then I stamped the cone in the layered colors-easy peasy!! I combined my candy corn with Hauntingly Delightful to make this great treat bag topper.

There She Goes Release Week | Day One

I so look forward to this time of the month - There She Goes Release Week!


Another FUN addition to her SUPER CUTE robot line, Torico is back with this month’s Maidbot. I know we all WISH we had one, and well, now you SORT OF do!!!! Imagine the fun cards and scrapbook pages you can make with this cutie, and her cleaning tools!

Maidbot is a 3x4 set that includes a total of 6 stamps and will sell for $7.00.

Maidbot by There She Goes

For my card, the first thing I thought about was how wonderful it would be to be rich to have a maid. I tell you, "I'd milk it for all it's worth!" I am entering my card into the Sketch Saturday #217 challenge.   I thought their sketch was perfect for this cutie!! This is what I love about TSG stamps - I used Poultry in Motion for the milk carton and the sentiment.

Tuesday Morning Sketches #156

Hello Crafters -

First let me start off by welcoming my new followers and thanking each and everyone of you for all the fabulous comments. I hope to visit your blogs in the next day or two to see all your wonderful creations.

Well it's time for a new sketch at Tuesday Morning Sketches. Our sponsor this week is the Doodle Pantry. For my card I selected an image called "Forget Me Nots" these are just delightful delicate pretty flowers. I did not use the entire image I used the .png file and cut what I wanted. I didn't think I had the capabilities. I love how this card came out - simple and cheery. I chose to use a sentiment from There She Goes because I have a special person in mind for this card.

TMS-#158

Here is today's sketch. Once again, please stop by the rest of the DT and leave them some love. They really have done an excellent job with their cards. 


Again, you are all the best! I appreciate you're time and comments. Thanks for stopping by. Have an awesome day!!

Here is my project:
This is a subject that is near and dear to my heart. I am coming up to my 5 year milestone at the end of October. I am very happy that I have survived this terrible disease and I hope that everyone will get checked. Early detection is the key!

There She Goes (Again)! Christmas in July

This week is TSG (Again)! week, where we are featuring some of the older TSG stamp sets. This month's sets are...


For my card I selected another image from Penguin Pals. I adore this little Christmas tree. I paired this little tree with Mistletoe paper from Close To My Heart. This is also my second card using this weeks sketch from Tuesday Morning Sketches. I thought the sketch was perfect for this image.

I hope you'll head over to the TSG store because Jessica is offering at 15% off your entire order. Now's the time to get ahead of the holiday hustle and bustle! As I said yesterday, I don't generally like this tradition but I'm actually excited that I have 3 and possibly 4 cards completed for Christmas! I think we need to have a Halloween in April tradition! 


Thanks for stopping by. I can't tell you all how much I appreciate all your wonderful comments. Have an awesome day!
