I'm Back! Miss Me?

Okay, I KNOW I've been absolutely terrible about posting cards. I'm sorry! I have returned from the uncreative boring world of school and finally found my mojo again! So here I am!

If I must have an excuse as to why I was gone, it is because I was moving! I left my old home of 8 years and moved to a whole new state, all the way across the country! Once we got here, we adjusted well and I started high school. It was a crazy thing to get used to, especially with new kinds of people and new ways of living. But I love it here. It has so many new opportunities for my family and I.

The card I created today is just a birthday card that uses some new paper I got down at Hobby Lobby. I pulled out some lace, flowers, and stamps from my stash and finally sat down and colored.

Here is my creation:

Back To School!

Well, unlike most kids all over the world, I am so excited to get back to school! I have had a great summer and I have enjoyed every second of it, but it's time to get back to my busy school life! I am ready for the best year of Middle School!

So to celebrate this occasion, I have made a Back-To-School card. The image is a ADORABLE new digital image from the new school release from Some Odd Girl! All of their new digis are just amazing! Go check it out!

Isn't this card just amazing! I love the vintage/distressed look to it and the flower, I think, makes it perfect.

Slugs, Snails, and Puppy Dog Tails!

 It's Saturday! And that means that it is time for another.....SWEET STAMPIN' CHALLENGE! And we have a wonderful one ready for you! This challenge was chosen by the wonderful and fantastic Vicky! The challenge this week is:

One For The Boys!

What a fun challenge! I knew exactly what stamp I was going to use! I love the saying "Slugs, Snails, and Puppy Dog Tails". I will give you a hint you what part of it gave me the idea for my card...."Puppy Dog Tails". So with that in mind, here is my boy card:

I am in love with how this card turned out! The layout, the papers, and the image make it perfect! Now you can see why I the saying and this image work so well together. The stamp is an awesome one from a Some Odd Girl release and colored with Copics. The papers are from a Cosmo Cricket collection. I added just a few touches of Kaisercraft bling and added a birthday sentiment that is from My Favorite Things. And with all those ingredients in my head, my mojo went into overdrive and created this!
