I guess it's been a long time.....

Life tends to get in the way of me doing everything that I want and I guess updating this blog might be one of my worst offences. I'm just doing a photo drop tonight of some of the cards I've done over the last few months.....

Sweet Summer......

I marvel at people who blog everyday and have amazing blogs. I want to be like that someday, for now I continue to just try to be better.

This was another one of our card challenges. I used the "Sweet Summer" set. It was a set that you could earn during sale a bration and I just love it. I was able to use this for my "Spring Fever" entry and then stamp the inside to make it a Mothers day card for my mother in law.

What have you been making?? I would love to see some of your cards.....

Sunny Fun sneak peak.....

Stampin' Up! has a new summer mini coming out and I LOVE LOVE LOVE so much in the catalogue. This is one of the sets that I pre-ordered for club in May and it is so much fun to use and stinkin' cute. I love how this card turned out and can't wait till the club order arrives this week so I can start prepping projects for May. It's going to be a blast!!!

Man Card......

This is the "Man oh Man" card I made today for the card challenge. It turned out pretty cute and is a quick one to make. Love this stamp set. It's available in the new mini catalogue that starts May.1st. I promise club pictures are still coming......it's been a little busy around here...

Stampin" Club TONIGHT......sneak peek.....

Tonight is Stampin' Club and I can't wait!!! It's so much fun to get together with the girls and have card making fun!!! I don't want to show off the projects before tonight but here is a sneak peek of 2 of the stamp sets we will be using tonight. The 3rd project is going to use some punches, the main one being the cupcake punch!!! I'll be back with project pictures tonight.....

Card Challenges.....

We are both members of a group on facebook and every 2 weeks a new challenge is posted. It's been great for trying new techniques and it's great to see what others make. At the end of the 2 weeks all the entries are put in and you have a chance to win a prize. This last challenge was "I'm torn" so you have to tear your paper.........not so easy to do. I made this cute card and tore my card stock to look like the sand. It was so much fun!!!! Up to my neck in club projects for April but I can't post them until next Friday......hope you are all having a great day!!!!
