Not So Lazy Sunday

I made a couple cards last night that I'm pretty happy with.  I was waiting for the Girls Next Door to come on.  I admit it, I love JUNKY TV!  What can I say?  Everyone has their quirks and this is one of mine.

This first card I made for Cafe Mojo.  The challenge was to make a card based on your addiction.  Well, since I'm pregnant I'm pretty much OBSESSED with things I can't have.  Here's one example, SUSHI!  Oh sushi, how I miss you!  I can't wait until June so I can have some spicy tuna!  

Anyhow, back to the card.  This is my FIRST Two Scoops of Rice card.  I got my order on Saturday and I'm in love!  These stamps are so yummy, it was hard not to eat them!  Ok, super simple card.  I colored the Maki Single, added some Black Diamond Stickles to the edges, Diamond Stickles to the cheeks.  I matted it and did a little faux stitch.  And finished with a handwritten sentiment and bling.  

The second card is for Sunday's Feature Stamper which was Judith Rozema.  I CASED this card HERE.  I changed the stamps used, the ribbon, and simplified it a bit (ie less layers, less embellishments.)  This card uses Unity's Mix Up of Cuteness.  I really love how Judy used the same embossing folder in two different colors, so that's why I picked this card.  There are some Stickles on my whale but that's pretty much it.  

Happy Monday everyone!

  10. Renae rocks! I heard a buzz about her and finally followed up when I saw the sushi on your card. Mmmm...don't tell, but I ate sushi when I was preggos. Granted it was only california rolls, inari, and musubis, no raw fish for me. I feel for you though! Hang in there Ashley, baby will be so worth the wait.
