You are my number one!

More cute bugs from Waffle Flower's Rock On set. Colored with Zig Clean Color Real Brush markers on Fluid Hot Press paper. The background is blended Distress Oxides in a radiating rays formation. What can I say, but "Cute".

Accordions are the best. Ever.

Oh wow, I finally have a stamp set with an accordion player in it! THANK YOU Waffle Flower. This set is Waffle Flower's Rock On, and features a whole band of musical bugs. LOVE!!!!

Anyway, I colored them with my Zig Clean Color Real Brush markers, cut them with my Brother Scan N Cut, and put them (the pink ones) on a standard 2 color card. The sky seemed kind of empty, so I added some stitched clouds from Lawn Fawn.

Here are the bugs, all colored up and ready to go. Yes, I did extras of the accordion bug.

Catitude, part 2

Just a quick card for the latest MFT sketch challenge, # 365. I did it from memory, and got it all backwards, of course.

Most of the cats are from My Favorite Things' Cool Cat, except for one from Catitude. The sentiment is from Catitude, also.

I used the inserts from MFT's Tiny Tags for the cat squares, and used MFT Blueprints 27 for the scalloped panel and sentiment strip.

I may try this one again. Next time I'll do something with coloring, LOL.

Believe in cocoa.

I might just sneak in under the deadline for this one. This cup of cocoa is from a die from Gina Marie Designs, as is the die that I cut the "Believe" from. The reindeer is sporting Doodlebug Erie Eyes. This will be my second entry into the Winter Coffee Lover's Bloghop. 

The second card is a bonus, designed with patterned paper and MFT's Blueprints 27 dies.The greeting is from MFT's "Snowfall of Blessings" sentiment set.

Coffee Lover's Blog Hop! It's here!

Yay, it's here! Let the coffee/tea/cocoa themed cards begin, again!

Here's my first card for the bog hop:

Another cute example of My Favorite Thing's Polar Bear Pals, on a background of Lawn Fawn's Let's Bokeh in the Snow paper. The inside sentiment reads: Have a Beary Merry Christmas.

Christmas chalkboard greetings


I have an explosion of die-cuts and bits and pieces on my work desk. I cut several wavy snow banks a few weeks back and used one for this Santa card, and used the Paper Smooches Ivy die for the simple "happy holidays" card. The Santa,which is from My Favorite Things's Happy Everything, is colored with my Zig Clean Color Real Brush markers. The chalkboard sentiments are from a paper pack I got at Michael's last year. I cut the panels around the obvious sentiments.

I have enough Christmas cards to take care of my whole list, but I don't want to stop making them. Should I sent multiples to family and close friends? Or hoard the extras?
