My First SCS Challenge Card

I haven't been stamping lately and with Father's Day coming around I needed some help. I decided to check out the daily challenges at SCS and loved the color challenge this week: chocolate chip, cool caribbean, and garden green. All the dads in my life golf so I pulled out the retired Back Nine set and gave the challenge a whirl. I really love how it turned out. I wish out had more chocolate chip paper to make the other 3 cards I need. Oh well, maybe I will try another challenge and come up with something else.

Mother's Day Gifts




These are the mother's bracelets that I made for my mother-in-law and sister-in-law this year. They are my copy of the bracelet my step-mom got me last year. Thanks again Sharon I wear it all the time.

Birthday Card


This is the birthday card I made for my grandma this year. I love artfully asian. The greating is an acyrlic stamp and I'm not sure if I like it. It will take awhile to get used to using them.

Other Mother's Day Card


This is more of a traditional card using the same stamp set but different colors.

Mother's Day Card







This was my first attemp at a tri-fold card. I think I will be making a lot more. They were so easy. I made this version for my mom, mother-in-law, and step-mom.

Stamps at Michaels


Holy Cow!!!!!!!!!!!! I was at Michaels today to do the Kids Craft with my two children and I always look at the stamps in the dollar bin. Today they had acrylic stamp sets in there. I want them all. I stopped myself with only 6 sets plus 2 blocks. I have attached a picture of the 6 that I bought.
