Crinkle Scallop Circle Card

Happy Saturday Crafty Friends!

If you follow me on my Facebook Pennants and Pinwheels page, I told you I was so going to do a card like this one HERE...and I have!  Love this look!

Here's my card:

The paper is from My Mind's Eye Miss Caroline Dolled Up collection. 

I used this color scheme so I could enter my card in Market Street Stamp's August Paint The Town Color Challenge HERE.  I used their Woodgrain Background Stamp (which I won!) on one of the row of scallop circles as well as on the background of the card itself.

Stampendous Impressions August Challenge - Focus on Sentiments HERE.

Hope you get to have a craft-filled weekend!

Hello Card

As if I needed another reason to use some gorgeous Crate Paper, I'm entering their Crate Color Challenge HERE, where at least 75% of your project must be Crate Paper.  No problem!  My Crate Paper of choice is their 6x6 Pretty Party Paper.  So darling!

Here's my card:
The A, B, C blocks, flower and sticker that I stamped "Hello" on are from Crate Paper's Emma's Shoppe 12x12 collection kit.  Again, super darling!

Go get you craft on!

Carnival Party Card

Good Morning Crafty Peeps and TGIF!!

Today I've got a fun, bright, cheerful "Party" card!

I used Echo Park's So Happy Together 6x6 paper for this one.  I also used some yummy twine from The Twinery in Caribbean, Lemondrop and Maraschino.  I used a few solid-colored Bazzill Basics Paper as well.
I'll be entering this card in The Alley Way Stamps Be Inspired Challenge HERE.  I used their Freebie stamps HERE since I don't have any of their stamps yet.  Hopefully I can win one with this challenge!

Hope you have something fun planned for the weekend...like getting your craft on!

Baby Girl Card

Hello Friends,

Today's card was made specifically for Simon Says Stamp Challenge:  Bingo!  This is the first I have seen of a bingo-type challenge.  Pretty clever, I think!  And fun!

I chose the 3 across the top:  Ribbon, Gems, Punches.  I also needed to make a baby card for an upcoming shower, so I killed 2 birds with 1 stone on this one!

Here's my card:

I used my new Bella Blvd Baby Girl Collection Kit. My ribbon was from 3 Girl Jam, which I won in a contest.  Really cute ribbon...all crinkly-like!  I put double-sided tape on my scalloped-punch circle and then wound the ribbon around it.  My gems are from Bo Bunny Jewels.  For my punches, I used an edge punch and the scallop circle punch.  (See full supply list below).

You have a week to enter, so go for it! The prize is a $50 gift voucher to the Simon Says Stamp store!  Sweet!

Go get YOUR craft on!

Christmas Emporium 3

A week or so ago I won a Hampton Arts giveaway and received the most adorable Christmas cling stamp set I have ever owned!  It's Graphic 45 Christmas Emporium 3.  I had a hard time finding it online, much less a good picture of it, so I took some close-up shots of my stamp set to show you.
Love that Post Card stamp!
Those 2 girls are precious!
Such a great, vintage-y looking Santa!
Here's a card I made trying to incorporate some of  the stamps into a little Christmas scene.
Can't wait to create more with it!

Have you started on your Christmas cards yet??
