Christmas Pine Cones

Today is another busy Saturday.  We have a wedding this evening, but first I must workout, get the house ready for Monday guests and try to somehow squeeze in a nap.  I did however, find some time in the wee early hours this morning to make a card for this weeks Mojo Monday Challenge.


Most of the products are Stampin' Up! with the exception on the brown mat, rustic twine and stamp.


Have a great weekend!!

I Love Cupcakes

I just love cupcakes.  They are one of those food items that always taste great and that you can look forward to.  The weather is lovely and we're off to a rib potluck and wanted to post this beforehand.

This card is for the mojo monday sketch.  My bow was suppose to be sideways, oh well.
I used Stampin' Up! supplies for everything except for the rustic twine and cupcake adhesives.

 Until Next Time!!

Melon Mambo Flower



It's a beautiful morning on the great Okanagan this morning.  I should be outside in the yard, but instead I'm inside crafting.  I think some days my crafting rules my life.  Today’s card is for this week’s CR84FN colour challenge: gray, cream and bright pink.  I love to distress everything, so I have naturally done that with this card. 

Stamp: Can't remember the name of this set, but it was a hostess set at one time.
Paper: Stampin' Up! - Basic Gray, Very Vanilla, Melon Mambo patterned paper.
Ink: Melon Mambo
Accessories: Ivory rustic twine thanks to endlessinkabilities

Until next time.
