Congrats, Graduate

Here is a card I totally copied off of someone from Splitcoast... (sorry I can't remember her name). I changed the card up a little bit. Oh well, she made several different variations of this card and I liked it so much I decided to hurry up and make one for my nephew. He is graduating from HS today. Guess what his school colors are?? My hubby and my oldest went to the actual graduation and I will follow later on w/ the two little ones. Busy day-but I wanted to share this card w/ you. Be sure to look at my blog tomorrow. Big things happening w/ SU. The "Last Chance List" formerly known as "Retired List" comes out tomorrow. I'll will post the link on my blog. Have a great day and take care.

Kristina Werner's Card Challenge

Here is my card for Kristina's Card Challenge. Quite a mess this week w/ card challenges. Mr. Linky was broken and then it wasn't. ugh... it was quite a cluster. Kristina's website and Dawn McVey's website both had major issues. So, I thought of this card design last night and tried to hurry up and submit it... but Mr. Linky was repaired and Kristina closed the contest. So I love this card so much that I thought at least I'll post it on my blog so everyone can enjoy it. I love this stamp set from PTI-Scattered Showers. I copied the bottom of the card (SU! die) from my idol Debbie Olson. The ovals are nestabilities, the printed paper, butttons, ink, and cardstock are all SU!

Raspberry Suite Color Challenge #7

Sorry for the mediocre pictures. I really need a better camera. Oh well, here is my card for Dawn McVey's Raspberry Suite Color Challenge #7. I may not be a great photographer but I do enjoy these color challenges. I used all SU! colors. Always Artichoke, Certainly Celery, and Pixie Pink. I have made this card before using different colors and made it work w/ these colors for the challenge. I stamped the background w/ versamark and embossed it w/ Dazzling Diamonds embossing powder. I thought it needed a little more pink so I used the Pixie Pink CS on the bottom w/ the scallop punch from Fiskars. I love the dainty little scallop edge! Thanks for looking!

Goodbye, School

It's that time of year again, the kiddies will be getting out of school really soon! So, I thought I'd make some cards to thank their teachers for working hard all year long! What do you think? It's a combination of SU! and PTI. It's really a knock off of a Debbie Olson design (Thinking Inking Blog)... love her! Thanks for looking.
