Christmas Cheers

Hi told you I'd be right back with challenge card number 52. This card is for The Simply Stampin challenge.
What a great sketch.


I went Christmas. I look out my window and all I see is snow. It makes it kind of hard to not make christmas cards. Here is my card


Sorry it's not a better picture. All the snow with the sun just makes for a lot of glare.
The supplies I used are
Stampin' Up
   Card stock      Pink pirouette, Close to cocoa, and Whisper white
   Ink & markers       Close to cocoa and  Pink pirouette
   Punches           Modern label, window, and scallop border
   Die                  Snowflake decorative strip
  Folder              Perfect dots
Stamps              Polar party

I hope you like my card
HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY and HAPPY STAMPING

Get well butterflies

HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY everyone
It's still snowing and there will be no road trip today. I guess it's another day of card making   tee hee tee hee
I actually have 3 challenge cards ready to post. So let see this one will be challenge card number 51. I made this card using The Stamping411 challenge. It's very similar to one I made over the weekend. Here is the sketch.


Since I'm snowed in I've been going through all my stuff. So you will see a lot of retired things on this card.



All my supplies are from Stampin' Up except for the swirl embossing folder from Cuddlebug and Spellbinder scallop dies
From Stampin' Up
Cardstock     Close to cocoa, Barely banana, Lavender lace, and Whisper white
Ink                Close to cocoa
Punches         1" circle, modern label, window and beautiful wings embosslit 
Stamps          Teeny tiny wishes and I don't remember the name of the Jumbo wheel

Love is being stupid together

Hi everyone,
I'm going to have to post twice today in order to get my cards posted before the dead lines and there's a pretty good chance I won't be able to post tomorrow anyways. I think there is a road trip happening. So this post is for the Paper lovin gals. Here is the inspiration photo.


I missed the dead line on this challenge last week and it was a pretty cool card. I'm not missing it again. Here is the card I came up with.


All my supplies are from Stampin' Up except for the sentiment. That is from The Angel company. I was organizing my stamps over the weekend and came across this one. I had totally forgotten about it. With valentine's day nearly over I though I better use it. 
From Stampin' Up I used
CS. Real red, Pink pirouette, and Very vanilla
Ink  Real red
Punches   Tag s and the Square Scallop
Folder   Perfect Dots
I hope you like my card. Stop back later today to see the card I'm making for Stampin411
HAPPY STAMPING

Snow friends

Good morning all,
I hurried to get my card done this morning, cause my husband said he'd take me shopping. But now the snow is coming down hard. I know when he gets home from work. It will be a big fat NO. I love living here but getting snow in so much can drive a person wacky. Thank goodness I have my stamps. Here's my challenge card #48.
Today I'm playing along with Merry Monday. She 's got a great sketch to work with.




Here is the card I came up with.



The supplies I used are:
From Stampin' Up    Card stock   Real Red, Whisper White, and Basic Black. Stamp set is Snow Much Fun. Also 2 circle punches and the markers
Other Supplies   Snow flake embossing folder from Cuddlebug, Martha Steward Snow flake punch and the snow flake and sentiment stamps are from The Angel Company.
I didn't like how my black strip ended so I added the snowflake at the last minute and put a little black gem in the center.
I hope you like my card.
See you tomorrow, unless I get bored, then I'll be back later today....LET IT SNOW, LET IT SNOW
Bye for now and Happy Stamping
