Monkey stamped cards

Like I said in a post earlier this week I am venturing off into the stamping world of crafting. I haven't jumped full into it yet but I do enjoy the coloring aspect of the stamping world, it reminds me of my younger days I love to color just don't do it very often anymore. So here are a few more of my stamped cards I love this Monkey set that my DH bought me from Hobby Lobby. Hope you enjoy and have a great week.

Post-It note holders

Here are a few post-it note holders I made as little gifts using some scraps I had left over from cards I made.

A few cards I have created lately

Ok so I know I have been MIA lately but I have been created still just not with the cricut as much. I have started to stamp more images and I am no pro but I like to color so I am still in the beginning stages of stamping. I haven't jumped on the Copic markers wagon yet but I'm sure if I get heavy into the stamping thing then I probably will someday.

Well here are a few cards. Hope you like it and stop by again soon.

MPS NSD Challenge #5

I know I went a little out of order but I'm trying to do all the challenges before the midnight deadline, easier said then done. Well I created this card to thank the many ladies and volunteers of my Husband's FRG (Family Readiness Group) they have done so much during this deployment and I thought it would be nice to send a "Thank You" note. I have not met anyone personally due to the fact we live in a different state but they are all wonderful people. Thanks for stopping by and have a great evening.

MPS NSD Challenge #3

OK this challenge was to think outside the box and do something you normally wouldn't or have not done on your projects. Well for my project that would be the sentiment tag in the little envelope. The tag came in a bag of assorted stuff that I picked up at Big Lots on one of my shopping trips. I had no intentions of ever using it and put it aside in my RAK box with the intentions of doing a giveaway some day. Well when this challenge about I decided to take a look in the box seeing that I would never use that stuff on my projects and here is what I came up with. Think it turned out pretty great. Thanks for stopping by and have a great week.

Mother's Day Card

Ok So I was sitting at the computer thinking about what style card I wanted to make for my mom and I seen a card on the Cricut message board photo gallery. Sorry I don't remember whose card it was there were so many, I got overwhelmed. The difference was the card on the gallery was all flowers and mine has the word MOM in the middle. This project has no Cricut use to it. I punched out the squares from scrap foil cardstock using a 1 1/4 inch square punch and measured the square mat after placing all the smaller squares down. The yellow ribbon is from a spool I picked up at Michael's on a shopping trip. The sentiment is from the All Occasion Messages set by Hero Arts. The ink is a Cocoa color by S.E.I. I found at the LSS before the closed. The flowers are from a winter prima set I purchased on sale at Oh My Crafts. Oh the MOM is just a set of clear epoxy stickers and brads I bought from Oriental Trading Company years ago. Thank you stopping by and looking. Have a great day, always comments are appreciated.

Thank you Cards

Who says you need a cricut for creating beautiful cards. Both of these cards were created while I was waiting patiently for my replacement blades to arrive. See I live in a small town and the only store that carries Cricut and Provo Craft items is our local Wal-mart. Well needless to say when they are out of stock I have to rely on the many on-line stores I purchase from.

The flowers on both cards are from a Vellum flower kit by Cloud Nine, I was lucky enough to have stumbled upon them while browsing the local Big Lots. Hope you like them. Thanks for looking. Comments are always welcomed and appreciated.
