Another KK Card! :)

I'm so glad that I included Eleanor in my last Kraftin Kimmie purchase - she's just so sweet! I had to pair her with some equally sweet paper, so I chose this piece of Basic Grey Lemonade that I've been hoarding.... er, I mean keeping for just the right card! ;-)

This little ribbon rose matched the paper so well. It's a leftover from the days when my girls were little and I would embellish their little socks, headbands, etc. (Back when I was allowed to do such things! lol!)

I used this week's Card Positioning Sketch (Sketch #207) for my card layout and I chose pink in part because "P is for Pink" challenge on the ABC Challenge blog. (And partly because it is my favorite color!) Both challenges are being sponsored by Kraftin' Kimmie, so I wanted to use a KK stamp. (Even when it's not required, I try to use a sponsor's stamps when I participate in challenges to show my support.)

I'm off to have a few friends over for Chinese takeout and a night of crafting. Can't wait!

Seeing Shamrocks

There's a Seeing Shamrocks Blog Hop going on over at The Angel Company's Savvy Projects blog. I wanted to play along but I don't have any shamrocks or other St. Patrick's Day type images. Hmm.... what was an Angel to do? Then I remembered those cute little St. Patrick's Day candy bar wrappers over on the TAC Downloads page...

 Supplies: St. Patrick's Candy Bar Wrapper (TAC Downloads), Rustic Chic dp, light and dark green Bazzill cs, sheer green ribbon.

Be sure to check out the other projects on the hop. There are some very creative Angels out there!

Scoopy Scallops

Whew! My Kraftin' Kimmie stamps have been getting a workout this month! I've been participating in all of the Kraftin Kimmie blog challenges as well as other KK challenges I've found on other sites. Tonight's card is for this week's KK challenge, Scoopy Scallops. I thought Lisette was the perfect image for this card - her braids make me think of scallops! :)

Coincidentally, I finished up this card while watching the show "DC Cupcakes". ;-)

Springtime Gardens

I am so very ready for spring to be here! In the spirit of warmer weather and Easter bunnies, I decided to use Springtime Gardens (T-3231) for this week's WWW card. I'm also submitting this card to Stamp Something's "Something with Flowers" challenge.

Supplies: Springtime Gardens, Bazzill Petunia cardstock, Catelyn dp, DCWV blue cardstock, Copics, sheer white ribbon.

Cute Card Thursday

Cute Card Thursday's Challenge 153 is being sponsored by Kraftin' Kimmie, so I just had to play along. This was the sketch for this week's card:

 

And, here's my card, using my new Arianna stamp. I just love her! I had to give her red hair like Arielle. :)

The background paper is actually some "snow" paper from Basic Grey's Blitzen line, but it made me think of bubbles.

Come back later today for my weekly Wednesday with Wings card, featuring a stamp from The Angel Company.
