Babies, Babies, Babies!




I guess I've got babies on the brain lately!

I'm going to host a Welcome Baby shower in a couple of weeks for a friend of mine. She had a baby girl on Oct. 8th named Amelia. I made 22 invitations. Just thought I'd share pics of them.

Thanks for looking!

Be blessed.

Incredible Blog Candy! Ends Oct 30th

Baby Boy Card



Hello! It's been a while. My family and I have had the flu! Awful stuff.

This card is for my neice, Kathleen. She is having her first baby in a few weeks. She's having a little boy and his name is Titus.

I've made this card to fit 3 different challenges. Stamping Sisters in Christ #8; which is to make a baby card, Crafty Creations #37; which is to use the color Blue, and the sketch is from the challenge at Sketch Saturday, which is my first time to enter with them. It's a great sketch, by the way!

My image is a clear stamp from Hampton Art's Doodlebug Baby. My DP is all from the Paper Studio: Baby Blue Paisley, Blue Tiny Toes Baby Feet and Blue Safety Pins. I used some Nestabilities dies for some of the squares, the baby feet ribbon is from Hobby Lobby, the buttons are from my stash, the sentiment is from the Bible ;), and I used Stickles for the border of the baby face.

Thanks for stopping by. Have a blessed day!

Jazzy Inspirations #20 and Stampin Sisters in Christ #6




This week on Jazzy Inspirations we are using a really cool inspiration piece. It's an Art Tatum CD cover. The colors are Black, White, and Purple. You should see the creations of the DT! They are awesome! Above, you can see the picture of the CD cover.
The PRIZE for the winner this week is a stamp set from Autumn Leaves! Submit your entry by Oct 10th.

The challenge this week on Stampin Sisters in Christ is to make a card that comforts or encourages someone. My card hopefully fits the bill for this.

I've made this card using Nestabilities die cuts, Cuttle bug to emboss the 2nd panels, and pearls for the centers of the flowers. The stamps have all been heat embossed. The verse is a Printworks Clear Art Stamp from their Scripture collection and the other stmaps are from Inkadinkado's Gem Stone Flowers.

Thank you for visiting and have a blessed day!

Stamping Sisters in Christ Challenge #4



I am really excited about this new blog! I love the concept of a challenge blog that lifts up the Lord! I've been wanting to submit a card to their challenges since they started, but this is the first time I've had the chance. The challenge this week is inspired by a scripture and then they have an awesome sketch.
Jeremiah 29:11 "For I know the plans I have for you," declares the Lord, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future."


This scripture is perfect for the card I chose to make. It's for my daughter-in-law's baby shower this weekend for my very first grandbaby!

I had fun making this. She is decorating his room in vintage cowboy style, so I made a card to go along with it.

thanks for visiting!

40th for my brother



Hi. Made a cute card for my brother. Hwy 40 runs along the Rocky Mountains here in Colorado, so I thought this would be cute. I just cut out the shapes from a picture on line and made my hwy out of white card stock. I used Stickles on the numbers. Hope he likes it.

Thanks for stopping by.

May God be with you today!

Jazzy Inspirations #18 with Candy!





This week's inspiration piece is a photoprint of a Sonny Rollins CD Cover. The photoprint uses the colors Black, Gray, and White with a "pop" of Green. Here's a link to a YouTube video of one of Sonny Rollins' songs. My one and only love.

BE SURE TO ENTER THE CHALLENGE FOR YOUR CHANCE TO WIN COPIC MARKERS THAT TENIA WILL BE GIVING AWAY!!
I used the awesome sketch from the last Basic Grey challenge. The butterfly and green flowers are from SU's Reason to Smile. I heat embossed the butterfly and sentiment. I used a cuttlebug embossing folder on two panels. The DP is Bo Bunny Midnight Paisley.

I'm going to give this to my daughter for her 22nd birthday. Her birthstone is Peridot, so this matches quite nicely!

I'm including a picture of her as well. Isn't she lovely?

Jazzy Inspirations #17



Here is my card for our #17 challenge. This week we are excited about being sponsored by The Digi Shack. They have the cutest stamps! They offer a free stamp every Monday! Check them out. We had such a great turn out last week at Jazzy Inspirations! We hope to see another one this time!

I used a Spellbinders Impressabilities to make the lampshade and lamp base. I used a Spellbinders die for the red frame and white circle. I used a cuttlebug embossing folder for the red frame. The background text was done on my computer. I cut the lamp out and popped it up with foam backing.

Thanks for stopping by!
