Idaho Stud!

This stamp seriously cracks me up... I mean really makes me giggle!  This digi is from Fresh Brewed Designs and I am having sooooo much fun with digi stamps that I simply had to print and color this cutie!  Even the sentiment that goes along with it is hilarious!  I created this card for the sketch challenge at Fresh Brewed Designs.  I was super excited to wake up this morning to see my card from last week's challenge featured on their blog-- so awesome!

Stamp: Digital stamp from Fresh Brewed Designs
Paper: Bazzil and I think Echo Park... I think
Markers: Copics
Gems: Bazzil

The hilarious sentiment that goes with this stamp!  Love it!

Beep Beep!

I had lots of motivation this weekend from the Operation Write Home Memorial Day weekend sketch blog hop.  There were soooo many cards shown and it was awesome!  So I decided to pick a sketch to create my next card.  I decided to use Sketch 12 with some new paper I picked up at Crafts Direct this weekend...oh dear me... I had sworn I was NOT going to purchase any more 12x12 paper until I used up a large portion of what I already had.  But... I did have to picked some up because it was super on sale!  I mean really...$0.08 a sheet---for all sorts of brands, etc.  Holy wow!  I simply just couldn't say no...I have troubles with the word no :) Oh and did I mention they had stamps too-- picked this there too-- also on sale!  Whooohooo!

GSS: Red, White and Blue

Happy Memorial Day to all!  And Thank you to all who are serving our country, all who served and all the families of these exceptional men and women.  And let's never forget those who paid the ultimate price for the freedoms we cherish.


I am sharing this card I created to focus on red, white and blue using some awesome products from Ginger Snap Scraps.  I have been using a lot of the Authentique Glory paper pad-- I love the paper!  The designs are very fun and looks so great with solid colors!  The cut is from my Stand and Salute Cricut cartridge.  There is a small bit of twine from the Twinery tied onto the die cut. The twine was distressed using my Tim Holtz Antique Linen distress ink pad.  The tiny star brads in the corner are from Mike's!  Enjoy :)
