Just Give Me Stamps...

Miss You...

Hello again!  I'm popping in here to share a quick card I whipped up yesterday as well as a photo! 

I had sone spare time yesterday, so I was able to get a little inky!  I love it when that happens!  I pulled out Teeny Trees (one of my all time favorite Waltzingmouse stamp sets) and whipped up this quickie card!

This photo is one that I took a couple of days ago.  Now that our kids are in school, I have been getting up before the sun does again.  While I am not necessarily a morning person, I do enjoy seeing the beautiful sunrises!  I thought this one was especially pretty!

Thanks for visiting!  Have a wonderful day!  ~Laurie

Classy & Fabulous...

Good morning!  The new Glitz collections have arrived arrived at my house, and let me tell you...they are even prettier in person!  I am in paper love!  I usually always have a favorite, but I love all three new collections (Beautiful Dreamer, Vintage Blue, & Dance in Sunshine) so much that I can't decide which I love more!  :-)

  

Here is a quick & simple tag I created using some of the new Beautiful Dreamer collection!  I just adore how each collection has so many coordinating elements!  It makes paper crafting in a hurry easy and beautiful!  :-)

That's all from me today.  Thanks so much for joining me here today!  ~Laurie

How Tweet of You...

Pep Rally week continues over at the Paper Smooches blog!  Today Kim is sharing peeks of the soon to be released My Peeps set...and one of the projects shared is a card I made!  :-)

The more I've been making round cards, the more I realize that I love them!  There's just something about them that is a little bit more special than an ordinary sharped card, don't you think?  :-) 

I love pairing Kim's whimsical images with soft and shabby papers!  I know they are two completely different styles, but I just really like the look of it!  Here, I stamped the bird, musical note, and sentiment from the new My Peeps set (from Paper Smooches).

I hope your day is full of happiness!  Hugs, Laurie

CASEing Moe...

Hi there!  I don't know about you, but my weekend absolutely flew by!  It is so hard to believe that it is Monday again!  :-)

Today, I'm sharing a card with you that I made a little while ago.  I made it for the current Diva Dare Challenge (going on right now over at the Verve Blog)!  The challenge is to CASE-a-Diva! 

I don't know if you have checked out the Diva's galleries lately, but if you haven't you definitely should!  They are jammed packed with GORGEOUS and creative eye candy! 

It was my pleasure to be able to CASE Maureen (aka Moe)!  The only problem I had was that it took me 2 days to finally decide which card of hers I was going to CASE!  I mean, how is anyone supposed to choose??  Moe has such a gift for pairing beautiful colors together...and have you SEEN her amazing sewing she does on her cards?  She even uses all sorts of fun colored thread!!  I finally chose THIS gorgeous beauty of hers as inspiration for my card!

I used the Bountiful Harvest set (which happens to be 25% off right now!!) to make a Fall/Halloween themed card!  I just adore Julee's whimsical pumpkins!!  SO cute!!

Well, that's all from me today!  I hope your Monday is one full of sunshine and smiles!!  ~Laurie
