Original Baby Shower Invite

Hi friends!  I hope you are all doing well.  We are ok.  We are getting over a cold.  I got a sinus infection from the cold and ended  up on 7 days of antibiotics.  Sigh... let's hope that this isn't a trend this cold and flu season.  We did go get flu shots as a family so maybe that will help.

A little while ago, I posted about the 30 invitation I made for a friend's baby shower.  I also said that it was not the original design.  This card was the original design, made the match the baby's bedding.  This is MUCH simpler than the design I ended up going with.  The star paper has the faux ribbon and the striped at the bottom.  Also, there's less paper piecing.  The paper is from Joann Fabrics, the boat and ahoy sentiment are from an old Gina K set, the You're Invited is from Stampin Up.  

Have a great day, everyone!  

Summer's Bride Sign

Hi friends! Hope that you're having a great day! We had a pretty good weekend. A birthday party and a visit with our friend who is recovering from an accident.

Last Saturday, my friend Summer got married and had a Disney themed wedding. She wanted a sign for the back of the wagon that her flower girl was going to be pulled up the aisle on. Now this is not my normal style but you give the bride exactly what she wants, right? The patterned paper is Stampin Up and the letters were cut out by my local scrapbook store in the Disney font. The bride is from Taylored Expressions Moka Charlotte. I colored her with Copics and added Stickles to her dress and veil.

Have a great day everyone!

Whoa! Did I Make That?

Ok, so this card really isn't that much of a stretch for me. However, I looked at it as it was coming together and thought "I should distress this." My poor distressing tool rarely comes out. I think it might have gone into shock, doing two whole layers!

I got this image in a swap and I LOVE LOVE LOVE it! Someone on SCS told me it's called Stipple Hydrangea from Stampin Up. It's retired so I might have to poke around eBay and see if I can get it. It's really not a normal "me" image, I tend to go for more "cutesy" but I think it's really beautiful.

I colored this with every type of marker I have. LOL! I don't have many colors in each type so I just combine them. Did I mention that this is the color challenge from this week on SCS? We were to use Lavender Lace, Barely Banana, grey, white, and black. I added green because I couldn't color the stem and leaves grey. It might have actually killed me. I used Stickles on the center of the flowers and the CB folder is Stylized Flowers.

Happy Thursday friends! We are going to get Parker's first professional pictures done today. Wish me luck!

Yummy in my Tummy!

I'm currently trying to step out of my normal Unity "box" since I have so many different stamps and images to play with. I might slip every now and then though, I really do have a lot of Unity stamps. On the card I have to share with you today, I used Stampin Up.

This card was made for the Clean and Simple challenge to be inspired by all the WONDERFUL art at art.com. There is SO much inspiration on this site! Hopefully, I will have time to make a couple more cards for this challenge. For this card, I was inspired by THIS Cupcake Print. The image is from Stampin Up, Crazy for Cupcakes. The designer paper is DCVW. I used both Copic and Bic Mark Its to color the image and some Stickles on the flame. The CB folder is Spots and Dots.

Happy Tuesday everyone! Go have yourself a cupcake! :)

Ky's Scrap Challenge

My friend Ky is hosting a challenge on her blog.  This is her first week.  You can view all the challenge details including the PRIZE info HERE.  

This is Brady's first Valentine's Day.  This was really really challenging for me since I had a picture of the heart shaped pizza and the cupcakes we made to celebrate.  I really didn't know what to do with them.  Also, part of Ky's challenge was to add something that you made for another purpose.  I choose to add the card I made Brady for that Valentine's Day.  This is WAY back in the day, so excuse the card.  I did adhere it so you can still read the message on it.  That's why I tucked the journalling a bit, so you could kind of tell.  The card was make with SU stamps.  And the journaling stamp is by Unity.  

Have a good Sunday everyone!
