retro sketches # 70

9:52 AM 0 Comments
This week at retro sketches this was the sketch:  It spoke to me that I needed to punch out a piece and build up from there. As I was looking through my stamps I found the party stamp which I though looked so cute over the punched out area.  ...

I took some Night of Navy card stock and than honey combed...

Mojo Monday 299

6:59 PM 0 Comments
I loved the idea of doing wither a round or square card as the challenge this week over at Mojo Monday. I wanted to play around with some ideas for a wedding card before I actually pulled paper out to make it so this design gave way to that. I created a 6x6 card in MDS using the inspiration sketch: I than created...

The Sweet Stop # 216

I did something a tad different this week for my sketch challenge on the Sweet Spot because I created a digital card using SU's MDS program. I built my card using the various layers inspired by this sketch: Here is my fun and modern take on this fun sketch. This would be a great card to either print up or create...

Buttons Buttons and more Buttons

8:52 AM 2 Comments
If you know me loose buttons are not something I like to have around because I always want to gag because I think of them as a choking hazard. On shirts and clumps that is okay. I once saw a lamp created out of a mason jar and filled with buttons- I almost lost it. So when Miss O came home from GS camp on Monday night...

June Pinterest Party Projects

My friend Lisa who I have known for years did this month's Pinterest party and what a great job she has done. We had awesome projects and for the first time failures for food.  One friend didn't even bring the dish because she was afraid people would get sick and after picking the cantaloupe out of the fruit salad...

Happy 4th of July

12:00 AM 0 Comments
Yes I know it is still  aways away but I have to say it is one of my favorites of the year. I love all the red, white and blue around. I also admit it to coming late into it being one of my favorite holidays. As a kid and childless adult, I was indifferent to it but once I had kids and see the joy as they watch parades...

Recently Linda Heffernan wrote a column for the Huffington Post called “Why I regret Being aStay-at-Home-Mom” and it upset me because we as woman have a constant battle between working and staying home. I admire her for her candid take on how she feels that she failed at it and regrets that decision but it was upsetting...

ColourQ #194

11:55 AM 3 Comments
This week's colourQ inspired me to think beach and summer. The bright colors: I used MDS to create this simple streamlined page. I love the picture so much of my son walking down the beach with his bucket and shovel in hand. He loved digging and attempting to a sand castle until the monster aka big sister smashed...
