LSC #42



Good Morning!

This week's Loonie Stamper's Challenge was to use plaid. The pp used in this card was the closest I had to plaid. Please visit Charlene's blog to see her uber cool card as well as links to all the Loonie Ladies great creations. Some of them even made their own plaid!

I am in a bit of a pickle this morning. It is so nice outside that I really should get out and enjoy the day, BUT I just received a new Papertrey Ink order and really want to play inside. I'll have to find time for both. It's all about balance, right?

Have a SUPER day!

Hello Yellow


Yellow is not a colour I reach for when making cards. However, when I saw this card I was insprired to use it and my beloved polka dot background set! I love the combination of kraft, chocolate, yellow, and white. Now, if I can only learn to tie a bow...lol.

I hope you are having a nice weekend. It was a beautiful day here in Calgary and I went garage sale-ing with a good friend of mine and her hubby. Found a few trinkets for my craft room as well as 10 good paperback books for $7! That should get me thru most of the summer. The best find of the day was this cookbook for $1!! I tend to look up recipes mostly online, but it's nice to pull out a cookbook once in a while too.

Thanks for stopping by!

Loonie Stampers Challenge Cards





I finally found some time to make cards. AND I used my pink sewing machine (that I bought back in early December) for the first time! As you can see I need some practice with it...ha ha. It has been 15 years since I have used a sewing machine, but I now have a sewing/cuttlebug desk so I hope to get to it often.

Anyways, here are LSC cards from last week and this past Friday. Please visit Charlene's blog to see her cool card and links to all the other ladies fab-o creations. Great colour combo the past two weeks!

Thanks for visiting and have a super weekend!!
