Party Like A Rockstar

So I rarely if ever...okay never party like a rockstar--but this card sure makes me want to!  I do have a strong love for Amuse so I had to pull out some Amuse stamps tonight and create this card.  I can't believe I didn't use my Cricut nor did I enter this into a sketch challenge!  All of the stamps I used are from Amuse for this card and all of my paper is from my stash so I assume it's SU!  I soooo need to find some more gingham ribbon--I think I need to get some in lots of different colors--it's just so fun.  I cried a little when SU! removed it from the catalog--back then I didn't even know such a thing was possible-- or believe you me I would have stocked up.  I hope you all have a wonderful night!

 The goods:

Stamps: Amuse

Ribbon: black and white gingham SU!

Paper: SU

Ink: Black Staz-on, Going Gray, Summer Sun

I heart Amuse!

Hope this post finds you all doing well today.  I am hoping the nasty weather that is happening all around doesn't afftect my little world here in MN.  Sending lots of thoughts and prayers out to the people affected in Japan and to friends and families of those folks all around the world.  Our godson lives in Hawaii with his parents and all is well witth them so that definitely makes me feel so much better knowing they are safe and sound!

A simple little card for you all today-- a set of cards actually.  Like I had stated in an earlier post I love Amuse and their products rock my socks off!  So I made a simple set of anniversary cards from one of my Amuse cuties.  They are having a huge sale right now so I'd stop by and check it out if I were you!   These are super simple-- I punched some circle, stamped my image used my Aqua painters and that was about it!

Recipe:

Paper: SU, Red Riding Hood, Elegant Eggplant and Night of Navy and some random white

Ink: same as colors above + Stazon

Punches: Marvy Punches Circle and Scallop

Stamp: Amuse for the couple, sentiment SU!

Foxy....foxy lady!

Nope... this is not a day dream scene from Wayne's World :)  But... I do have a super cute card to post today if I do say so myself.  I received this new stamp in the mail the other day from my super awesome Secret Stamping Sister--check out Splitcoaststampers for more information and tons of creative ideas to spark your creative side.

Again...you all know I love Amuse! and my Secret Sis sent me this little cutie along with some other goodies--a super stinkin' adorable little truffle box.  Once I have instructions I shall need to make one of those little cuties!  This fox is called "Artic Fox" and is from Amuse.  The designer paper is from my local craft store and on the reverse side it has a bunch of animals on it.  Sorry I don't again know the brand of paper-- my store has an outlet and I will occasionally...okay often pick up some random sheets here and there and give them a good home :) 

And a little ribbon from stash... I think I shall sob when I run out of this satin chocolate brown ribbob... I just love it sooooo much-- but have NO idea where it came from!

When's our Tee Time?

I'm thinking Spring and golf that's forsure...I'm not really impressed with the fact that we're suppsed to get more snow here in MN.  Ugh I'm ready for spring to get here!  This card I have put together for a few birthdays--so I have made multiples of this one. I found the original design on Momo's blog and I thought it was sooooo amazing I had to make a few for myself.

Valentine's Day Gumball Machine: Another Saturday Sketch Challenge!

Ahhhhhh so I have some amazing news I was selected to be part of the Stamping 411 Stampers Showcase! Whoot!  I was so delighted to see that I received this super sweet honor.   I decided to again play with the Operators at http://www.stamping411.blogspot.com/ for the Saturday Sketch Challenge #186.  I didn't use my Create-A-Critter Cartridge today! 

Today for my card all of the cardstock including the DSP is from Stampin' Up.  The adorable gumball machine rubber stamp is from Amuse.  I actually colored the gumball machine using a red sharpie marker, a silver no name glitter pen I had in one of my drawers and the little heart is a small stick on rhinestone that I also colored with the same red sharpie.  The button was in my stash from who knows where and I threaded the button with a small red heart brad.  I also used a white ink pad to ink the edges of all pieces of the cardstock--I'm still not sure I love the way that looks with the white!

I hope you enjoy tonight's card!
