My Dawn M Inspired card...


A day late and a dollar short, I know...but this is my Dawn McVey inspired card. All products are PTI, except for the sentiment 'friend' which is from CHF (Kim Hughes) and the bling....oh, ok and the button! Sheesh! :) Now, don't you think I should have won!?

Another Case...more PTI Inspiration


I love going through the design team gallery each and every month! There is just loads and loads of inspiration and great ideas!! Here are some cards I made with the Stationary set that I love. I cased them from Lisa Johnson and you can see hers here. I used the new PTI color spring rain and the simple alphabet (which I love too! ;)

Another Case from a Favorite Release...




This is a case from Betsy Veldman who is becoming one of my most favorite designers ever!!!! I love her style, her color combos and everything she creates!!! I used a PTI vellum bag, my new Simply Stationary (since I didn't have Damask Designs yet) and some PTI cardstock. Here is where I got all my inspiration! I packaged this up for a gift for one of my husband's coworkers...now I can't wait to get my new Feb stamps so I can use the large damask stamp that Betsy used. :)

Valentine's Day Goodies







The kids and I went to the doctor's on Friday and on the way back we just happened to see the "HOT" sign at Krispy Kreme...which meant a stop! We wrapped some yummy cute sprinkled goodness for the bus driver and teacher at school...complete with a chocolate filled center. YUMM-O! I decorated a bag and used a large cupcake container to add 2 of the sprinkled heart doughnuts. :)

{Happy Valentine's Day}

Happy Valentine's Day everyone! Tonight's post is inspired by Dawn's McVey's Color Challenge in celebration of Papertrey Ink's 2 year anniversary. Are you staying up for the big reveal? I have to tell you that my sister and I are *HUGE* Dawn McVey groupies. We have loved her blog for the longest time, then she became a member of the PTI design team and now she is designing her own stamps. Her knack for combining colors that you would never imagine putting together has given her a style that is immediately recognizable. My sis and I are soooo excited about the release of Damask Designs. Anyway, this card is a definite case of one of Dawn's from this week though I subbed out the stamp set for Heart Prints and the sentiment is from Verve Visuals. I used the same colors and a button from Making Memories. The card is for my sweetheart--a virtual valentine since we aren't together tonight. Wishing everyone lots of love! My sister promised to participate tonight??? Where is she?? :-)
