Grungy Valentine

Today I joined the Dynamic Duos and Paper Players Challenges. I have a bit of a hard time with single layer cards - but that's why doing challenges is a good thing - they make you work out of your comfort zone from time to time.

I also thought it was time to see what the grunge look was like using subtle colours.  Not too bad, I think.

Hope your day is working out your way!  Thanks for taking time to stop by.  

Be sure to check back tomorrow to see what we have for you from MDS Monday.

Dude Cards....

Well, I spent the weekend playing with the "Dude, You're Welcome" kit, and have turned it into a 

Dude, You're Welcome 12 Masculine Card Stack

April 20 - 1:00-4:00pm  OR  6:00-9:00pm

Come create some cards perfect for the male teens and men in your life.  We'll be using the "Dude, You're Welcome" kit stamps.  You can create the set to give as a gift or use them yourself for the special men in your life. I am offering this class two ways - Option 1 - Only the class - creating 3 copies of the 4 different designs.  Cost $25.00 Option 2 - Get the supplies for the class and purchase the Dude, You're Welcome Kit to take home for your own use.   My designs do not use the paper/envelopes which are included in the kit - so you will have all those supplies, plus the ink and stamps, available to you.  Cost $45.00  (The kit is $35.75 (including shipping/handling/GST) so you get the class for only $10.) If you want to sign up for Option 2 you MUST let me know by April 12 so I can have the kits ordered and available for you to take home on the 20th.

Daring Chocolate Hearts

I don't think I ever thought to put brown and pink together before I started stamping; but I just love this combination:

Crumb Cake

Chocolate Chip

Pink Pirouette

I'm loving the new Scallop Dots Ribbon...when I get home from my holiday I'll have some new colours to use.  Can't wait!!!!

Thanks for stopping by for a visit - Happy Stamping!!!

Love Birds

Just a quick post before I get busy working on my Newsletter and stamping. I spent most of the morning rearranging/cleaning/organizing my stamp room. Why does that job never seem to end??

I created this card last night using the challenge from CCEE Stampers. This week the challenge was to be inspired by Valentine from ImageKind. The Valentine I chose is called "The Overseers" in the thumbnail. An odd sort of valentine, but the black and white called to me....plus - it gave me a reason to use this fantastic bird punch. I used Nouveau Chic paper for both the matt and the wings.

Well - off to chores - Thanks for stopping by.
