Laura's Snowboardabella Bday

I needed a card for my girlfriends Bday as I see her tonight for drinks. I was scrambling this morning to get one made for her. She's a snowboarding girl and I found this image I had stamped when I borrowed Mel's Bella's. How perfect! She loves pinks, so of course I had to get out the pinks and I just love my blues.

Ingredients:

Stamps - Snowboardabella, Happy Bday from Princess SU set

Papers - Bo Bunny - Holiday Cheer PP, Pink Pir., Soft sky, baja breeze, WW

Inks - SU blk, Pink Pir, Soft sky, baja breeze with blender pens

Accessories - SU markers, snowflake punches, circle punch, 3 different ribbons, lily white flock, white perfect puff and pink shimmerz.

It's been forever since I was out at a pub. Shall be a good time! Have a great weekend crafting! Kim

Pengie Luvs You!

A LSS had a 25% off sale this past weekend. I had gotten a $50 visa gift card from two great friends, so I thought I'd go searching for something new to play with. I got the nesties label 2, pink shimmers, Bo Bunny Sweetie Pie Swoon and Back to Basics papers, 3 Great Impressions Vday stamps and a couple yards of ribbon. Now, I'm going Vday card crazy. I also had just boughten the Brilliance Graphite Black ink pad on Friday. Wow, does it ever work well!

Bella Birthday Balloons

A lady at my Mom's work is wanting me to make her cards and I have felt so burned out from Xmas cards, but I finally stepped into the dungeon today. It felt good to do some colouring. I really want to take the plunge into copic markers this year. What colours to start with, is my scare and to use them properly.

I got this cute Bella image from a Bella exchange with Beth (scrappin beth) on SCS. Great way to get a variety of Bella's without having to purchase them all. Hey, Beth.. time to do another one? :o)

My dear and talented friend Mel (Mel stampz) made these foam flowers, paper flowers, brads, a little box to hold the foam flowers and the packaging that the little flower container was in. I need to take a picture of them to show her great talent.

I matched up the colours in the flowers with SU colours, added a paisley cuttlebug folder and a sentiment.

My question: What would you pay for this card w/ envelope? I am having a hard time pricing.

Now to get to making my girls 6 Bday party invites. I really want to keep them simple, but still look decent. Hmm...

Happy New Year to all of you and wishing you a fabulously creative year!

Ink: Baja breeze, choc chip

It's snowing like crazy here. Definitely not the norm for us to get this much and these cold temps for this long.

Wishing you all a very Merry Christmas to you and yours!

Crisscross Christmas

Well, I made myself get into the dungeon yesterday while the girls were at Kindergarten. I wanted to make my very own crisscross card from scratch. I had to improvise on the band as I noticed after that it had to be 12". I really don't own much 12" paper, so had to use turq. pp for it. I pulled out those MS glitters again. I'm going glitter coocoo. Can't stop myself it seems!
As always, it's hard to get a good picture. The word on the little inside piece of paper says wish! I wish for a new vehicle for Christmas. hee hee. After a $500 bill today, I can dream that right.... :o)

Supplies:

Stamps - Small Script
Papers - The Paper Company - Snowflake Sentiments, SU Tempting turq. pp, cool carib., tempt. turq.
Inks - MS glue pad
Accessories - small corner rounder, MS snowflake, gem brad, MS glitters.

Happy Weekend to all!
