Happy Friday!

Hello my crafty friends!  It's Friday-- yay for the weekend :) I have been trying to get back in the stamping/crafting groove and hope that my mojo continues to be on the upswing.  I still don't have Christmas cards done...so perhaps I will send out Valentine's this year!  Don't judge!

So I pulled out some Unity stamps and was working on some OWH love themed cards...hence the thought that perhaps I will be sending out Valentine's this year.  So I will be linking this card up for the Unity Stamp Company Challenge.  The sketch is a take on the sketches they have offered for inspiration-- super cute huh! I am also trying like mad to embrace some white space... yikes... and to use some washi-- whoa!  I know right?!?!  Might as well link this baby up for the Unity Friends with Flair for this Friday and heck it's a love card and headed to OWH so it's gonna get linked up there as well!

Gingerbread Treat Box

Hello my crafty friends!  Hope you're all doing well.  Why is it that when I have time to craft I simply can't come up with anything that looks right?!?!  I have tossed more projects in the last two weeks than I care to admit!  This one didn't turn out too bad so thought I would post it and even link it up to a few challenges.  Hoping for some Christmas mojo :)  When I first cut this I was hoping a little treat I need to send would fit in it but it didn't so this will now house some cookies!!!  Stay warm!

CardzTV Stamps Challenge: Christmas Treats!!!

Whoa!  Hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving! Mine was wonderful as always!  Ate a bit too much and was definitely reminded that I have oh so much to be thankful for--sometimes a little hard to remember but I must focus on all that I have versus what I don't.  Can you believe that it's almost time for Christmas--wow!  Time just seems to be flying by.  I had soooo much fun creating for this challenge at CardzTV Stamps.  This challenge is all about creating a treat for Christmas giving...oh wow did I have a blast with this challenge!  Hope you enjoy my project!

Unity Friends with Flair

Trying to work on some cards to help build up my stash of cards to send when someone needs a little note.  I don't ever enjoy sending sympathy cards so it's nice to create some ahead of time and have one handy to grab.  I love this set from Unity Stamp Company and it tends to be my go to set for sympathy cards!  Love the sentiment "Death leaves a heartache no one can heal, love leaves a memory no one can steal" it is from the Unity: With Sympathy set.  And I paired it up with another go to stamp set Unity: Moments in Bloom

Operation Write Home Mid-Week Throwdown

Hello crafty friends!  Time for another OWH- Midweek Throwdown and this week is all about creating masculine birthday cards!  Here is what I created.  Oh how I wish I was feeling more crafting mojo-- way too much on my mind that's stressing me out!  Hoping soon things fall into place and prayers are answered-- I must remind myself that things could always be worse!  Enjoy!

Sorry for the craptastic picture :) 

Happy Turkey Day!

Hello crafty friends!  Hope you're all having a great day.  I decided I better get crackin' on some Thanksgiving projects!  So I whipped up 25 of these cuties today!  Enjoy! The sentiment is perfect for this project and is from the lovely and talented Mary at CardzTV Stamps!
