Both cards are made with stamps from Taylored Expressions, and I did learn something while going thru her challenges.....I NEED MORE TE STAMPS!!!

A Card For Ink

My friend Ink has a challenge over on her blog Ink's .... go check it out. The challenge is to use fall colors. It is that time of year! So I chose this beautiful TAC flower to stamp and color. I don't seem to be using my prismas as much lately as I normally do. It was fun to pull them down off the shelf and do some coloring.

Enjoy and thanks for stopping by.

A Card to Start September Off Right

Todays card is for the color challenge over on SCS. The challenge was to use Melon Mambo, Bermuda Bay, and Crushed Curry. I thought they were a little bright at first, but I'm liking how it turned out.

I'm Back....Again!!!

Wow, I can't believe its been a month since I've posted to my blog! Life has thrown us a few curve balls, but we're adjusting and dealing with things as they happen!

I combined a couple CAS challenges to come up with todays card.

I love my Unity Stamps.....they seem to be my "go-to" stamps now when I need a CAS card. I find myself really enjoying the CAS look with my limited time that I have to stamp now.

Today I used the Hodge Podge of Happiness If you haven't tried any Unity Stamps, pop over to their website and check things out.

Everyone Meet Patrick!

Everyone....meet Patrick! Isn't he awesome? He is on patrol and looking for a few good donuts! I sure hope he doesn't smoosh those sprinkles in front of his car!

Ok...I'm kidding....I love "my" cop and I occasionally tease him about donuts. He's more of a snickers/mountain dew kinda cop though! *wink*

You can get your own Patrick at Sunshine Stamps He will be available Saturday at 5pm CT....so go get him! I'm totally loving the digi images!

You can also check out what the other DT members have to show you as well. Sunshine has links over at her blog...so go check it out.
