Basketweave


Hi all ! Today's card was inspired by Kristina Werner's Make a Card Monday for today. She has a tutorial on how she made it on her website under the card.

She used ribbon to weave her embellishment. It was such a cool idea, so I thought I'd try too !
I thought it turned out pretty cute. It was hard to weave all those ribbons and get them onto the square card though!
Enjoy!

Puppy Love


Today I was in my "studio"....I quoted the word 'studio' because it really doesn't look much like one--it's a TOTAL disaster area. I am in the process of cleaning it up and fixing it up-taking all my artsy bits and pieces out, painting the walls, putting in used cabinets (given to us by DH's mom), reorganizing everything into it's logical area, and finally calling it my "studio". I have realized this might take awhile, but I know it will be well worth the effort.


Anyway, as I was saying, I was in my studio and since I have puppy on the brain, I made a "Thanks a bunch" card using a cute Art Gone Wild Puppy Basket stamp I got last weekend. The sentiment is from Penny Black. I think it turned out quite cute! Enjoy!

The Big D




My hubby is a big Dallas Cowboys fan. Always has been, always will be. Period. He has a number of caps he wears all year long. He recently got this hat and it inspired me to make a card for him. It's a simple design, but I think I like the way it turned out. He liked it too. Ü

kwernerdesign's blog challenge


This is my take on the card challenge on kwernerdesign's blog. After I saw this picture of it, I decided the flowers were too "skimpy" for the card. They should have been bigger or something......
Well, this is my first challenge, so I can only go UP from here!
Have a great day !
