the Ribbon fairy came!

I am a sucker for another ribbon share from the ribbon fairy, aka Jody. Aren't they purty? I hope to get some ribbon-using in this weekend.

another knock-off...

I receive Papercrafts magazine and get lots of inspiration from it. I feel like I've subscribed since its very beginning. I saw this card and immediately thought of my long-hoarded Simply Scrappin' kit. Sometimes I'm not sure what to do with the die cut strip stickers and this is just the thing.

Friends and Flowers Simply Scrappin' kit, Whisper White cardstock, Lasting Impressions patterned paper, Cricut with Base Camp cartridge, Chocolate Chip ink, Oriental Trading ribbon, Colorbok alphabet stickers

An anniversary card today

This year I need 9 anniversary cards for family and friends throughout the year. I am making this card that was inspired by Kendra. I wanted to use poor, neglected Blush Blossom.

The picture didn't turn out very well, though. Thanks for the pretty CASE, Kendra!

I got a card from Beate!

I am so lucky! I received this RRAK from Beate today! I think I might have squealed out load. I am in awe of her work on her blog and visit there everyday. Please give her a visit as I know a lot of you already have.

Beate made this card and posted the details on her blog. I love it! It made my mail day...

round card

I subscribe to so many magazines and have a ton of ideas in my little head after reading them. I think I got the round card idea from one of the cardmaking mags. I really wanted to try. Dontcha think the design was made for the Coluzzle? It was my thought anyway.

I didn't really like how this one turned out. Why, you ask? First of all, I need sturdier cardstock for this... the ribbon is too bulky...and I should of used nontextured cardstock or watercolor paper for the main image. Poop. Live and learn.

paper: Spring stack from DCWV

ribbon, aqua painter, reinkers, Coluzzle, Giga scalloped round punch

love this fold...

One of my absolute favorite artists is Julie Ebersole or JulieHRR at SCS. If you have ever visited there, I know you would have seen her work. On this particular CASE, I love the fold of this card and the cool ribbon placement.
