GREAT day.

I have a JAY OH BEE!!!! I am working for Mountain Title Company. Yesterday was my second day and I am so happy!!! And I found out I am going to be an aunt again!!! Talk about the best Tuesday ever!!!!

Oh yeah, and got home and embellished the cards I started on Sunday. Both of these sets are retiring. Alright I think I am done with Tagger's Dozen and Big Pieces for a while....I don't know if I can resist! Promise there will be more of the other retiring sets soon. I think I will stamp a bit this weekend, start a job and I already need a three day weekend. Talk about awesome! July is totally going to ROCK!!

And a little knee (it's two inches smaller) update, my surgury will be October 22nd.

Headed to FUNKY town

More love for the big pieces. Funky paper for a funky set. Enjoyed my Saturday in Harlem. Watched them branding cattle, which was smokey and I had no idea how much went into putting a brand on a cow. They had a waffle iron type thing which was pretty facinating and just a real eye opener to a city girl!

Just a little gift set...

I have been obsessed with my scor-pal here for the last month. I bought mine from Toni as one of my 1/2 off items! What a deal, and let me tell you it is worth it. I am really pleased with it! I got the template off of the Scor-pal website. These are 3x3 cards which Beate inspired me to make if I need to help get my creative juices flowing. The stamps used in this little card set will only be available until August 11. I thought I would use Snow Flurries in more of a springy less ho ho ho style.

Birthday wishes

Quick card, inspired by a layout in the 2008 summer Take Ten mag.

Adios Tagger's Dozen

Antoher great set that is checking out...Tagger's Dozen. While I was picking up the new Stamper's Sampler at Joann's that my friend Toni is featured in, check out her published cards here. I found some chipboard ribbon slides that I totally planned to cover up with ink and such, but the color matched this ribbon I had bought while I lived in Phoenix. Amazing how things come about. I picked up the new Stamper's Sampler, Take Ten and Stamp It! And so far I have been stamping like a mad woman. I have also started over 30 boxes, pouches and such with the ole' score pal. I'M BAAAAAACK!!!!

Two favorites UNITE!

The little cuttlebug is a keeper, especially with this embossing folder. I embossed the DCWV paper that reminded me of Carte Postal. I put them together and VOILA! perfection. Added a bit of white craft ink to the raised part of the image then spunkified the stamped image with the marker and gel pen. My favorite card of the week by far.
