Playing in Paradise #55

Happy Friday my Paradise friends!! February is almost over and pretty soon it will be summer.  We already booked our first camping trip on line....I can't believe how crazy that sounds, but we didn't even get the site that we wanted cause it was already booked and we did this first thing in the morning when they opened on line booking.

I hope you will find time to join us with this week's Playing in Paradise Challenge over at the Scrapbooker's Paradise blog. This week's challenge is brought to you by Nina!

I tried to keep my card simple....

 Hope you will check out the rest of my team mates for some ideas.

Playing in Paradise #54

 

Happy Friday my Paradise Friends! I hope you will find time to join us with this week's Playing in Paradise Challenge over at the Scrapbooker's Paradise blog.

This week's challenge is to create a card, scrap page or project using faux or real stitching.

I have been busy making cards for this challenge..... I love the first card, but it just didn't

cut it with the four stitching.

 And of course going over and above is just so me... no happy medium here!

I actually enjoyed making the last two....it might be too much stitching for you, but I do it while watching tv (or should I say while listening to the tv).

Check out these amazing creations for some inspiration this week.....

Playing in Paradise #51

Welcome back my Paradise Friends!! Happy Friday to you all and I hope it will be a fantastic day for you.

I hope you will find time to join us with this week's Playing in Paradise Challenge over at the Scrapbooker's Paradise blog. This week's challenge is Nina.

Ever since we did Tall and Skinny card by Nancy...I am hooked!  It is so re-freshening to do this size, a little bit challenging to follow any sketch, but I still love it.  Not to mention that I have hundreds of envelopes for this size (6.5 X 3.5)

 Hope you will check out the rest of my team mates for some ideas.

The Sweet Stop

My oh my.....Thursday already?  Next week will be February....Are you ready for Valentine's Day?

I guess I am!!  Here"s my Valentine's card.  I used The Sweet Stop sketch with a spin "Non Traditional Valentine"  Not in the mood to color lately....I did heat embossing combined with distressed ink .

Mojo 224

Happy Sunday to you all!  

Was able to create a card, buy not particularly too keen with this one.... I thought the circle part was way too big and I was gonna re-cut it, but then it would be hard with out messing the rest of it.

Hope it's a relaxing Sunday for you and Thanks for bloggin' by! 

Playing in Paradise#50

I hope you will find time to join us with this week's Playing in Paradise Challenge over at the Scrapbooker's Paradise blog. This week is an Inspirational Challenge by Laurel!

I'm not too keen with my card though.... I thought using a shimerry card stock will look good paired up with distressed ink..... I guess not!  Didn't have enough time to do another one....well.... I actually did, but my MOJO was not interested.

 Hope you will check out the rest of my team mates for some ideas.

Penny Black Challenge

Wow!  Look at me go.... I haven't done PBC for ages!  I'm just trying to catch up and thought I'd start with my favorite challenges.

I colored this image years ago, so it was a quick card to put together.  You can't really see it, but I put Diamond stickles on all the stars.  My girls are now casing my card because of the stickles.

Thanks for bloggin' by!

Sweet stop

Happy Monday to you all!!

Friend

Last day before we go back to school.... my girls are not ready to go back yet, but I think two weeks is way too long for them to hang and play together....or should I say fight together.

Finally!!! A challenge card that's not PPC.... I'm hoping I will find more time to craft this year. 

The sketch challenge is Mojo #222 and I combined it with Moe's challenge #116.

Another sketch challenge for you from the sweet stop! 

 I have been crafting all weekend for PPC challenges and scrapbooking my girls school pictures... Yes, me scrapbooking!  So over all... it was a relaxing weekend and what a perfect time to stay in the house when it's COLD outside.  We are actually looking forward for the weekend to end cause the week to come will be much warmer.
