There She Goes Release Week | Day Three

We have come to the end our sneaks this month at There She Goes. Today's set is so awesome. I only chose one image to ink up today. I so look forward to coloring more of this set and helping my cousin create scrapbook pages for her children's day at the zoo!!

You LOVED her Zoo-pendous set, and well, everything else she has created, but I REALLY think Melyssa has KNOCKED this one out of the park!! Whether making a card for a boy or girl, man or woman, or scrapbooking your latest trip to the zoo, there is something in her new Jungle Out There set for you!! Full of the CUTEST animals, and most HILARIOUS sentiments, what’s NOT to love??

Jungle Out There is a 6x8 set that includes a total of 20 stamps and will sell for $24.00.

There She Goes Release Week | Day Two

I am so excited about today's release. I am in love with another stamp set. It's just so precious. I loved the set so much that I made two cards for today's release because I just couldn't decide which image I liked the most.

I think we can all remember back to a time when we idolized our parents, most of us still do, and we wanted to grow up to be JUST like them. I mean, what girl HASN’T put on their mom’s shoes, and what boy hasn’t worn Dad’s tie? Just in time for Mother and Father’s Day, Torico has illustrated the CUTEST dress up set I have EVER seen!!

When I Grow Up is a 4x6 set that includes a total of 15 stamps and will sell for $15.00.

Isn't she just darling? I just fell in love with her. I did not add a sentiment because I just couldn't settle on what it was I wanted it to say. I love all the sentiments. Heck I may even consider sending this to my mother - her 70th birthday is a couple of months away and she would love this. 

Theresa Winslow-Boy

How can you resist this little guy? Isn't he just the cutest? I just had to color him up and make a card. I'm not into dads so I added the dog from the In All The World stamp set. That's what I love about TSG stamps - you can interchange them and create something totally unique.

Tuesday Morning Sketches #139

Good Morning Crafters -

It's a busy day today!! Here at Tuesday Morning Sketches we have a great sketch and a new sponsor. DT member Jessica designed today's sketch and our sponsor is My Creative Classroom. I've taken a couple of classes from them and have enjoyed them. Be sure to check out their blog and their list of upcoming classes. What's cool is that one person will win a free seat to a class of their choice.

For my card today I used a Workshop on the Go Kit called Mayberry. I bought this set and today is the first day it's seen ink. I feel like I'm just obsessed with buying and then I never use. I need to get better at this and use a lot more of the gazillions of stamp sets that I have.

TMS-#142

I spent part of yesterday with TSG DT member, Karen Giron and she taught me how to take better photos and edit them. I hope this looks better than some of the photos I've posted. I think I still have some work to do because it's my old tired eyes having to make all the adjustments!! Either way, I like my card. It came out a lot better than I expected. 

Here is today's sketch: 
Thanks for stopping by. Be sure to stop by the rest of the DT to see their amazing creations. I can't wait to see what you make. 

Have an awesome day!

Flowers of Happiness

Good Evening Crafters -

I am a wee bit late with this post. This past week was There She Goes Again! week at There She Goes. I so wanted to play along, but life got in the way for me. I had the images all colored up and just needed to get them onto a card - and I never got that far.

Flowers of Happiness is the name of this set and it was one of my first sets of stamps from There She Goes. I really enjoy coloring flowers (they're the easiest - and my favorite). This set is great because there are 3 different types of flowers, leaves, and great sentiments.

Flowers-of-Happiness

This coming week is release week and is this ever going to be a fabulous week. Be sure to come back for some great new stamp sets. 

Isn't that ribbon just yummy? It was part of my March Ribbon Kit of the Month from The Ribbon Carousel. I think I need to get more - 1 yard is never enough!!

Thanks for stopping by. Have an awesome rest of your weekend.

Tuesday Morning Sketches #138

Good Morning Everyone -

It's a great day at Tuesday Morning Sketches. It's also the first day of Spring - yeah!! I hope that we don't get snow, but it's so cold here tonight you never know what will blow in. This week we have a fabulous sketch by DT member Kathy and a fabulous returning sponsor - The Stamping Boutique.

We are all very excited at TMS - we have reached 500 followers. Now if we could have that many participants how fabulous that would be! To celebrate 500 followers Melissa will send a randomly drawn winner a small prize package containing some ribbons, buttons and a few other fun little embellishments. I will also send the winner a surprise. Here's how to be in the drawing:

1) Play along with the challenge
2) Visit each of the DT blogs to leave a little love
3) Like us on our Facebook page (see sidebar link - on TMS blog)
4) Come back here to link your project and leave a comment here that says I DID IT!!

For my card today I needed a birthday card for my teammate. Her birthday was yesterday and I totally forgot! I really like how this card came out. I would've never thought to put green and purple together and I think it looks awesome! I also learned to use the Cricut Craftroom and pulled the ovals together to make one cut. I still need a bit of work in getting the scallops behind it to be a bit more tighter, but it works.

I hope that you liked my card. I appreciate your stopping by. 

Have an awesome day!!
