FS62 Thank You Berry Much...

I created this card for today's Featured Stamper Challenge "FS62". I bought this NEW paper from Archivers yesterday, its called Nana's Nursery by DCWV. After viewing the Featured Stamper's Gallery, I noticed some of her cards done with strawberries, I thought this paper would be perfect, here is the card that inspired me.

Michael Johns - Dream On...

Just want to post a little something about Michael Johns who was my favorite this season on American Idol. Michael unfairly got kicked off of Amercian Idol last night, not really sure what happened except he won't be on the stage next week where he should be!!!

Let this be a lesson, VOTE because if you don't some one else will win!

Michael if you find your way(some how) to my Blog, I will be the first to buy your album! :)

BIG hugs,

SC171 Soft Hello's...

Happy Wednesday...

Today's card is for this week's Sketch Challenge "SC171". Lisa is this week's Guest Host for the Sketch Challenge and for such a simple sketch, there have been some pretty amazing cards.

For the sky background on my card, I punched out a scalloped circle. Starting at the bottom of the background piece, take the scalloped circle and sponge and wipe the ink upwards on both the circle and the white background piece.

I have a question for all of my blog friends. How are my pictures, are they brighter? I have been changing the exposure setting. You too can have brighter pictures, click on Gina K's Tutorial for more instructions.

Recipe - Stamps: Always Paper: Close to Cocoa, Caribbean Blue, Whisper White Ink: Close to Cocoa, Cool Caribbean Accessories: Ribbon, Scalloped Circle, Scalloped Ovals

CC161 You Are So Lovely...

Happy Tuesday...

Today's card is the this week's Color Challenge "CC161". The colors are to use Real Red, Glorious Green & Night of Navy. I found this challenge to be challenging but who doesn't like a good challenge?! Since the colors had green and red in it, I knew I would be safe using a foral image.

I have been working on a bunch of RAK's (Random Acts of Kindness) so I will be sending this card out. Would you like to send out some RAK's to our troops, click here for more details.
