Hell Fellow Crafters and Scrappers,

I love the fall season. I love the clothes, the crisp morning air and the changing colors of the leaves. So imagine my sadness when the temperature here in the mid-West is still at 90 degrees. Hmmm... Well, if the weather will not cooperate then at least the supplies in my craft room will make me feel like fall is here =)

Today, I am sharing a card using the Pumpkin Bouquet and coordinating die.

Happy Sunday Fellow Crafters and Scrappers,

I am just stopping in for a quick post to share a card I made for the Always Playing With Paper Sketch Challenge No. 59. I viewed the current sketch and thought it presented a perfect opportunity to play with a cutting plate a friend let me borrow.

Happy Friday Fellow Crafters and Scrappers,

We made it! The weekend is upon us and that means we might be able to spend a moment or two in our craft rooms. To get you moving in that direction, check out this week's Just A Scrappin' Challenge...Birthdays! Join us and create a project, card or layout featuring a birthday theme.

Hello Fellow Crafters and Scrappers,

I am popping in with a quick post. I have been on vacation, so I am trying to get back into the crafty swing of things. A little help from Simon Says Stamp's Wednesday Challenge, Food and/or Drink, is helping me to refine my smooshing technique and play with a few of my favorite stamps and dies.

Happy Friday Fellow Crafters and Scrappers,

We made it to Friday! Wahoo! I am dropping in with a quick post for Simon Says Stamps' Monday Challenge...Coffee or Tea? I couldn't wait to break out my supplies and get crafting. =)

Hello Fellow Crafters and Scrappers,

I am dropping in to share a birthday card I made for my dear father-in-law. He is a fan of dogs and so I thought it would be cute to have such a loyal, furry friend wish him "Yappy Birthday!"

Happy Thursday Fellow Crafters and Scrappers,

Welcome to this week's Just-A-Scrappin' Challenge...celebrating July 4th!

Hello Fellow Crafters and Scrappers,

I have another card to share with you today. I designed this last night using my Gansai Tambi watercolor palette. I am still trying to a get a feel for these wonderfully pigmented watercolors, but I sense there is much more to be learned and explored.

Happy Saturday Fellow Crafters and Scrappers,

I had an opportunity to play in my craft room this morning while my men, my hubby and our two sons, were visiting Lowe's for their weekend Little Builder's workshop. I made this Nautical themed card for both Always Playing With Paper, as well as CAS-ology's Nautical themed challenges.

Happy Saturday Fellow Crafters and Scrappers,

A dear friend celebrated her 60th birthday this week and in honor of that special day, I wanted to make a card for her. Thanks to Tenia from Jazzy Paper Designs, I came across another fabulous sketch challenge blog, ShowCASe Your Style. I used sketch No. 4 to design my card along with another fabulous Unity stamp.
