A bit early...

Yes, yes I know it's the Christmas season and winter should be my theme...but I just can't bring myself to be excited about holiday cards this year....in fact I might not even send any...yep...there I said it out loud for the world to know.

So I decided I would keep plugging away at a box to send off for Operation Write Home and right now it's Valentine's day time for OWH so I have love on the brain!  I pulled out some Pink By Design stamps and decided to link up this card at Link Up Tuesday PBD.


Winner!

Hello Everyone!  I had some blog candy up for grabs last week and random.org selected my winner for me!  Congratulations to Craftynayner31-- I will be in touch!!!

I love this card! Wait....I love all of your cards!

Guess Whooooooo?

Hello friends!  Hope you're having a great Saturday and you all had a great Thanksgiving on Thursday.  I am working on some card sets for my mom to give as gifts this year and I created 8 sets of cards with 5 in each set.  I tried to do a nice variety for her to give.  I've been using a lot of OWH sketches and really enjoying them a lot!  The inside of this cutie says "thinking of you."

Thanks a Latte!

I am working on some cards to get sent off to my lovely shipper Kris for Operation Write Home.  This week's mid-week throw down is a Thank You card challenge!

So I pulled out an old stamp from Amuse that I love and inked up one of my favorite stamps sets from CardzTV Stamps!  I adore this stamp set from Mary!  She's super :)  I'm debating if I should have matted the cup a bit differently... I still have a few cards left to put together so I might change up my design a bit this weekend when I can get back to my crafts!

Well I hope you enjoy my card a latte!

Mmmmm coffee!

So if I could I would definitely drink a cup of coffee this big... it would of course need to have some great creamer and be a self warming cup...but well anyway you catch my drift :)  I decided that I had NOT been crafting enough and decided that I should probably get in some challenges today.  I have been missing all of the fun over at The Hambo Hoedown Challenge Blog and decided that I best be joining them today!  I definitely need to add the super cute toaster image to my collection one of these days but decided on using Coffee Girl today-- isn't she stinkin' cute?!?!  I sure think so!  The challenge was to use gingham so I pulled out this sheet of paper and got busy!

The sketch I used is from Operation Write Home and I think this card will be perfect for someone to send home to a coffee lover :)  I know I'd love to see this cutie in my mailbox!  And I promise...in real life the greens match much better than this photo!  Sorry about the picture!


Music!

Hello my crafty friends.  It is time for another challenge with my awesome friends over at Eureka Stamps. This weeks challenge is to use a use some scripture or inspirational saying as your main focal point!  Definitely a super fun challenge.  You know you want to stop by and check it out!  Pull out those inspirational saying stamps and get creating :)  We would love to see what you create.

Eureka Stamps is also currently having a design team call!  Click here for more information about the call!
