Many Thanks... no... like... for reals...

Happy Monday, folks!  I have MANY THANKS for you today!  No, like, for reals... I used a LOT of fabulous Paper Smooches thank you stamps on this card for my theme project with Imagine Crafts this month!  It was totally fun!



I assembled all of the stamps together on my Fiskars Stamp Press and then stamped them with VersaMark and clear embossed them before inking over the panel.  I love how this turned out!  So fun!  You can see the full tutorial over on the Imagine Crafts blog.



I added a fabulous little Bossy Joscie flair to finish off the card!  I  love it!  This card was tons of fun to create!  You can find all of the supplies I used in the links below.

Have a Happy!!!

Give Me Something Good To Eat

Okay, so that's pretty much the story of my life.  HA!  No, but for reals, I love to eat.  And candy is a problem for me.  The very BEST PROBLEM EVER!!!!  Just sayin'.  All that said, Halloween is pretty much the bestest holiday ever seeing as it is obviously ALL about the candy!  YAY!!!  So... in that Spirit, I created today's fun Halloween card!



I LOVE that sentiment!!!  It's from the Halloween Chatter set from Unity.  It's an AWESOME set and you should probably buy it.  Just sayin'.  (I don't get anything if you do, I just love it!  HA!)



The sequins and patterned paper are both American Crafts goodies that I picked up at Target.  I love that I can casually add a supply or two to the groceries!  HA!  The little felt sticker is an older one from CTMH that I've had in my stash because I simply couldn't bear to part with

I am linking up to the Unity Friends with Flair with this fun little card!

Have a Happy!!!

Be Dazzling!

What a fabulous idea that is, is it not?  Simply be DAZZLING!  Okay!  I will, thankyouverymuch!  Today I have another Crafter's Comanion card to share with you.  This image was just too much fun.  I obviously needed it.  HA!



When I first looked at her I considered going with a black dress, but then I decided that she certainly had more sass than that, so red it was!  And I love it!  She was so much fun to color!  I particularly love this Martini Girl stamp set because her hand is actually empty.  You can choose what you want to put there!  I chose the martini glasses from the stamp set, but you could do so many other things and even mix and match stamp sets to make it your own!  Love that!



She is stamped on Crafter's Companion Ultra Smooth White cardstock (it is the BEST for use with alcohol markers!) and colored with Spectrum Noir markers.  A bit of black glitter tape was the perfect accent just beneath the popped up white panel.  She's just fun.  That's all.  :)

Have a Happy!!!
