Mermaid tail

The Charisma Cardz challenge this week is "Something with a tail".  Since I don't really have any animal stamps (I actually have none) I had to think outside the norm.  Then it struck me, Mermaids have tails!!  So I inked up cutie Pearl Tidepool and got to work.  I combined it with the Sweet Sketch Wednesday Sketch #60  and I had a pretty cute card.

Ingredients:

Stamp:  Sweet November Stamps-Pearl Tidepool

Paper:  DCWV-Black Currant

Embelishments:  Distressed Stickles-Picket Fence, Flowers-Making Memories, small brad

Tools: Nestabilities Small Circle #3

Another Stamping Bella card

Happy Monday morning to you!

I'm going to make this quick because I'm doing the ever growing piles of laundry and cleaning the house.  We had a busy weekend so nothing really got done.  I did get a chance to work on some cards so I should have something to post everyday this week.

So I used another Stamping Bella that Rach stamp for me.  I think she may be my favorite.  My DP is from Me and My BIG Ideas (I'm pretty sure I got it at Joann's)  I layered red, black and white CS from PTI.  The flowers are from Prima.  The cute stick pins are from Fancy Pants Designs With Love line.  I used last weeks Tuesday Morning Sketches but apparently I should have posted this last night since the deadline for the TMS is Sunday night.  However I will be entering it into Charisma Cardz Girly with flowers challenge.

Have a wonderful Monday and I'll see you back here tomorrow.

A little spring!

Happy Monday to everyone.  I hope that you all had a wonderful weekend.  It's a little dreary here today.  I'm okay with that as long as the rain doesn't turn to snow. 

Today's card is a bright spring card.  I'm going to try to get all my Easter cards finished early (I stress TRY!)  First off the cute little girl elf image is a Sweet November Stamp by Amy Young.  I stamped her on PTI cardstock and colored her with my Triart markers.  I used my Spellbinders Nestabilities Small Circles to cut her out.  All the paper and the sentiment sticker came from Basic Grey's Sugar Rush Collection Packthat I won from Monique at Monique Griffith Designs.  You'll be seeing a lot of it because I love it so much.  I also used some adhesive rhinestones and flower brads from my stash.

Happy {heart} day!!

I'm so excited!!  I made a card that I can enter in three challanges!!  This is a first for me.  I love the way this card turned out.  I like it so much that I may not be able to give it to anyone!  Isn't the image just to cute! It is a freebie from Michelle Perkett Studio. You can get this image too over at Michelle Perkett Studio at the PCP (paper craft planet).  By the way I love the PCP.  The brown paper I used from my scraps, I'm trying to clean that out.  All three PP is from the Target $ Spot.  Gotta love Target $ Spot!!  The happy {heart} day stamp is a $ stamp from Micheals.  I clear embossed it but the pic is so bad its hard to tell.

*edited to add that I added some lines to the middle cake so I could use all three colors*
