What a great day!

I am so waiting for spring to come! I know alot of us are. It has been SOOOOO cold here in Alberta, but tomorrow it's supposed to start turning around. It is time for spring to be here! At least a tease would be nice!

For my spring inspired card, I used a sketch from TCP (The Cat's Pajamas) Tuesday Challenge created by Carole shown here. I got her sketch from Jen del Muro's blog i {heart} 2 stamp. I go to Jen's blog quite a bit because she does such beautiful work.



It seems to really be the style right now to mix many different patterned papers together. I like the effect, but am having trouble attempting this myself.

Supplies: Close to My Heart patterned paper (pink), black & white cardstock, black ink, What a Great Day My Acrylix stamp set (flowers & sentiment), Summer Posies flower (pink) ; Prima flowers (green & yellow); Stamping Bella bling (pink & green); Provo Craft patterned paper (yellow); Sweet Life patterned paper (blue); BIC markers.

Stop by again soon!

From Our House to Yours.....

My very young cousin Erin got married last summer, and now has her own home! I am excited for her, so wanted to congratulate her by making her a cute card. I am really feeling old because she was born 6 months after my husband and I started dating! Yes, we have been together a long time, and I'm only 40 now!

I used Amy's Sketch #47 from her blog Prairie Paper and Ink plus one of the cute sets from All That Scraps called C.C. Designs EZ Mounted Sugarplums Snowy Scene. It's supposed to be more of a Christmas type set {our secret!}, but I thought it was still a good choice for the occasion. The patterned paper is from a new Level 2 paper pack from Close to My Heart called 'Daydream'. I just love it, and there are some other really pretty papers in it as well. Since I started making more cards, I'm always on the lookout for great papers!



Supplies: C.C. Designs EZ Mounted Sugarplums Snowy Scene (house and sentiment), Close to My Heart Daydream Level 2 paper pack (patterned paper), CTMH black ribbon, prisma glitter, CTMH black and white cardstock, CTMH white and green textured cardstock, BIC markers.

Thanks for stopping by!
