Purple Lilies

Hi Friends and Stampers,

How is your Monday going so far?  I hope well!  Does anyone get to stay home with the kids this week for Spring Break?  I have a few days off this week, so excited! 

It's my Holly-Day to show you some inspiration and actually I was the one who was inspired by Cindy Lawrence and her beautiful purple Lilies.  So I used her colors and made my own card, lol. 

MFT Lily Die-Namics - coming to the LRS store soon!
Doodlebug 6x6 paper - fruitstand

I love these lilies and plan on using them a lot this spring.  I also love the sending thanks stamp set.  I am still trying to figure out how best to adhere the sequins that I used, lol.   I can see the shiny glue around them and I hate that, lol.   I'll figure out something!  Maybe it's time to make the perfect size glue dots from my Scraperfect Best Glue Ever!

I hope you have a chance to join us in our Current Challenge - 1980's theme, or if that doesn't sound interesting, there is always a new challenge tomorrow and I've seen a whole lot of cards out there that fits our next theme, lol. 

Also, you will want to keep an eye out on the New Items page, Laura gets  sneaky and likes to slip a few pages of new stuff in there in the middle of the night on me, lol. 

Okay that's it for me today, go ahead, get inky!

Got Lemons?


Hello, It's  Marcy here for some inspiration on a Saturday! How is everyone doing?  I am so excited as today starts my first day of some much needed vacation time! Now most of my time off will probably be doing some Spring cleaning and getting ready for the Easter holiday.  Can you believe it's almost Easter?!!!  I am hoping I can also include some fun time with the family, some relaxation and of course, some crafting time!:)

So here is my card...


My card today features another adorable images from the Pure Innocence collection by MFT.  I just can't get enough of this cute gal!  This one is called "Pucker Up" and I had so much fun coloring her up with my copics.   I just love her cute little lemonade stand!  The fun lemon paper I used in the background is from a collection called "Nan's Favourites" by Kaisercraft.  I kept my card pretty simple adding some enamel dots from My Mind's Eye, some yellow twine and a button.  The cute sentiment "Got Lemons" is from the same PI stamp set.

Here are the Supplies Used:
Scalloped Ovals - Spellbinders
 Mustard Seed - Tim Holtz Distress Ink
Nan's Favourites - Kaisercraft
Enamel Dots - My Mind's Eye
Black Tuxedo -Memento Ink
Be sure to stop by the Loves Rubberstamps store to see the items used on my card and to see all of the latest MFT Pure Innocence stamp sets!  Hope to see you back here tomorrow for the fun "Sensational Sunday" blog hop!

Have a wonderful Saturday!

Hugs,
Marcy

Easy Peasy!

Happy Friday Friends!

It's Athina here, happy to be back to share a little inspiration.  I am sticking with my out of comfort zone theme.  You may look at the card below and think, REALLY?  Well yes.  I am one of those people that don't feel complete unless I have an image on my card.  Well ladies (and gents), I forced myself to create a quick fun card that anyone can make.  Really it was very simple.

First, I searched for sketches.  I found this one from Deconstructed Sketches.  Simple enough and cute! 


Then I picked out my papers and ribbons.  I used Simple Stories Celebration/Birthday 6x6 pack.  I cut them up and then added some scalloped cardstock, a ribbon, button, Lawn Fawn Retro Triple Pack Cord and the sentiment by C.C. Designs - Be Happy



Supplies used:
Lawn Fawn Retro Triple Pack Cord
C.C. Designs - Be Happy

There you have it!  Easy Peasy and super quick!  Laura has been adding  new items to the store.  So be sure to check back often.  Also, make sure to stop by and play along with us in the Totally 1980's challenge!.

That is it for me today!  Have a great weekend and we will see you back next week.
Blessings until next time...

Time for Pizza!

Happy Holly-Day Monday!

It's my turn to show you some Inspiration!



Copic Markers Used: C7, C5, C3, C1, C0, R29, R27, R24, E000, E00, E21, Y15, Y17, E43, E42, E27, E25, E23, E11, E13.
I saw this cute paper over at a LSS store and I knew it would be perfect for my little pizza guy. I have a ton of pictures of the kids on random days at Chucky Cheese, so I just added that journaling and the date on the other side checked panel. I couldn't help myself, I had to use this months Sugarsketch again and make a matching pizza guy card. He is one of my favorite images. I just love him.
I promise to be over the Scrap Page Frenzy soon, but I am having such a great time and I have a ton more pictures to Scrap. I love encorporating what I have in stamps and dies to the pages. Have you used some stamps and dies in your Scrap pages lately? To further inspire you, I want you to head over to the Loves Rubberstamps New Items! I promise there is more goodies added to the store!
And be sure to join us in our New Challenge tomorrow where I am Yes, Again, making another scrap page layout! lol.
