Baby Shower Gift...

Wow, first let me say sorry! I can't believe how long it has been since I have posted anything, my week flew by, but that's no excuse, so I will try to be better about posting! :) Next, this is the little baby gift I made for my friend. I got the tin from Target, I think, and then just made twenty little thank you cards for her.
This is what everything inside looked like. Sorry about the crappy lighting, I didn't finish my cards till like 2 in the morning, so sadly there was no natural light! :)
Stamps: Fun and Fast Notes, Polka dot, Short & Sweet
Ink: Chocolate Chip, Bashful Blue, Certainly Celery, Basic Black
Card stock: Whisper White, Bashful Blue, Certainly Celery Chocolate Chip
Accessories: Chocolate Chip poly-twill ribbon (retired), Whisper White 1/4" Grosgrain, Soft Sky Double Stitched Ribbon, Fuzzy green ric rac (the fabric store), dimensionals

Baby Onesie Card...

I know there are lots of onesie cards out there, so here is mine. My good friend Wendy is having a little boy and so I made this for her shower. I had a hard time doing a little boy one, all I have really seen are the cute girly ones, but I had fun making it. Sorry the pic is kinda dark, it was later in the evening when I took it. I will try and get a better one soon. :) *Apparantly I don't know how to spell, I think onsie should be spelled like that and I have had others say it should be spelled onesie, I don't know! :) If anyone has any thoughts, let me know! :)*

Stamps: Short & Sweet, Love It (retired)
Ink: Certainly Celery, Ballet Blue
Card stock: Ballet Blue, Whisper White
Accessories: White Gel Pen, 1 3/8" Circle Punch, Coluzzle, White eyelets, dimensionals

My Swap Card...

I said I would post the card I did for my swap, so here it is. It is basically the exact card we did here for one of my workshops, I just added the scallop edge along the bottom and used my cutter kit to distress the edges of the Bashful Blue card stock. I did this for my swap because I had a bunch left over from my workshop. :) Enjoy! All Supplies Stampin' Up!

My First Mojo Monday...

Okay, so you are probably thinking, 'Why is there a picture of used grid paper on here?' :) Well, I will tell you...the grid paper was sitting on my desk still after making the swap card and my color challenge card, and this is what it looked like. I was inspired...I wanted to make a card using those stamps and colors, and then I looked over and saw my sketch for the Mojo Monday challenge, so I thought I would make that be the card. :)

This is the sketch we were given...The idea was to be able to use some of your taller stamps, but I don't have any really tall stamps, so I changed it a little. :)

And this is what I came up with...I love it, not to toot my own horn or anything, but I think this is one of my favorite cards I have done in awhile! :) Don't look to close at the dots though, apparently I need the wheel guide! :)

This one is just a close up of the little 'brad washers' that I did (I don't know if they have a better name)! :)

Stamps: Baroque Motifs, Lots of Dots Jumbo Wheel (retired)

Ink:Basic Black, Certainly Celery

Card stock: Black (not SU!), Whisper White and Certainly Celery

Accessories: Slit Punch, 1/4" circle punch, Black Brads (not SU!)

Color Challenge #15...

Its time for another fabulous color challenge from Kristina. Although this weeks colors were really hard and I'm still not sure I like what I came up with. I ran out of time to try again though, so it is what it is! :) This weeks colors are Chocolate Chip, Close to Cocoa, Really Rust, Certainly Celery and Whisper White. Not sure if they are my favorite colors together, but I'm glad that I did it because I would have never thought to put them together. I think my card is a little plain, (I think it needs a ribbon somewhere) but I was really trying to focus on the lace stuff that is in the picture. Enjoy!

The smaller picture I included just so you could see that I put it on dimensionals! :)Stamps: Priceless, Lots of Dots jumbo wheel (retired in the Occasions mini)

Ink: Certainly Celery, VersaMark

Card stock: Chocolate Chip, Close to Cocoa, Really Rust, Certainly Celery, Whisper White

Accessories: Silver Brads, White Embossing Powder, Heat Gun, Slit Punch, 1/4" Circle Punch
