This card is made with Groovy Guava background. Blue Bayou middle layer, and shimmery white SU card stock. The stamp set is sage advice. The flowers and saying are stamped with Chocolate chip. The flowers are colored with Grouvy Guava. This quote is really really neat. I think it is something that I need to be reminded of every once in awhile.

I used wild wasabi for the background of this card. I used blue bayou for the middle layer. shimmery white for the top. The stamps are done in chocolate chip. The stamps are daisy field wheel, and Sage advice. I colored the flowers in the daisy field wheel with groovy Gauava. The Bee in the corner is a brad I picked up today at the local scrapbook store.

this card falls under my self imposed challenge to use all the stamp sets I have. I used the stamp Love without end. I used groovy guava, Marigold morning, Blue Bayou, and Wild Wasabi for ink. I used Groovy Guava, Marigold morning, and Blue bayou for paper. The ribbon is double stitched crossgrain groovy Guava.

I added my hello to the card. I think I like it, but I am not sure. The Hello may be to "playful"

I made these cards to celebrate the fourth of July. I used night of navy, real red, and Shimmery white for paper. I used Night of navy and real red for ink. The ribbon is night of navy. The letters are brushstroke alphabet. The star is love it.
I think the second one is going to say hello eventually.

I used the stamp set Polka-dot Posies purely pomegranted paper and ink. river rock paper and ink. chocolate chip ink in the center and true thyme for the leaves. the ribbon is apricot crossgrain ribbon.

stamp set. Tart and tangy and smile.

paper: gable green and Yoyo yellow and shimmery white

I stamped happy birthday from the Smile set inside the card.

Happy birthday Uncle Dave.

The card is glorious green and shimmer white. The ink is basic black and only orange. Sami helped me stamp this card, her Uncle is having a birthday so I had to make a brand new card. I really wanted to just use one I had already made but noooooo. Now We get to make another one for her other Aunt. I am so glad she has a large family so I can make lots of cards. It seems I am making one a week for her.

Sami's Aunt's Puppy dog is having his first birthday, so Sami and I made this card today. The baby is baby hannah and her puppy muffin. The big girl is Sami and "her" puppy Doc. Doc is the birthday dog... I sure hope they enjoyed the party as much as I enjoyed spending some stamp time with my angel.

I used all in the family and Simple sayings II for the stamps. YoYo yellow and perfect plum for the paper, and perfect plum ink.

Ok, so there is no stamping to it but I did use stampin' up paper and ribbon. This is a smaller notebook. you can't really tell it but the white paper is embossed with a straight line of hearts across it. I would take the picture again but I mailed it to a friend. She just had a baby and I think this will slide down in a diaper bag.

I made this little notebook for myself. It was really really easy. I may trim the ribbon a little more, but other wise I am thinking it is a great project.

I cannot seem to get everything back into my desk that came out of it. Hopefully tomorrow the guys will put up my shelves so I can reorganize things. :) I am thinking of making these little notebooks to sell to raise money for autism. It takes me about 5 to 10 min apiece and one sheet of paper if I don't go into as much detail as I did here. If you know of any other really cute really fast projects please let me know.

This is my desk with the top rolled up. I put my stamp pads and refills back in the desk along with the 48 cards I am making for my friends baby announcements.
This is the drawer of scraps of paper, large stickers, and templates. I figure they will be totally scattered if Sami sees them.
This is tub one of the stuff I took out of my desk.
This sat on the CPU shelf under the desk.
The rest of this stuff all came out of the desk somehow. Not really sure how I had room to stamp in the desk, but I did it somehow.

My desk is a source of "pride" in my life. I have always wanted a nice roll top desk for as long as I could remember. I have always said think of all the stuff I could hide in one of those desks if I had one.... Well I was right about one thing I can hide a lot of stuff in one. I finally finished my scrapbook room and so I cleaned out my desk so I could move it into the room. WOW. I have a lot of stuff. And that isn't near all of it. That is only the stampin up stuff not the creative memories or random things I have bought over the years. :) It is amazing, anyway my room is done, and I am waiting on my dad to recover from minor surgery so I can move the desk from the basement to my room. I'm thinkin maybe I need to call some guys over to help him. ;) anyway. This is the current state of my stamp life. Hopefully soon it will get fixed up again. I need some serious stress relief.

I wanted this stamp set a long long time before I actually bought it. I don't know if I really will ever give a sympathy card, maybe I will. I really like the saying in this stamp set, " your loved one will always be as close as a memory, and the God of all comfort as close as a prayer". I used the rich regals family for this card. I know the blue is night of navy, and the other color is bordering blue. I used apricot for the ribbon. The dragonfly is just one I bought off of ebay. I also used crystal effects, in the middle of the flowers.

This card was made from the bold brights family, except for the words, I used chocolate chip on them. I used two stamps that I have never used before in this one. Big blossoms and full of life. The flower is lovely lilac, the card stock is glorious green and green galore.

The plywood is finally moved. Thanks Dad. I told him that was what I wanted for mother's day and that is all I got. :) Anyway. I made 4 cards today, packed up the stuff to mail my PIF. And filled in the nail holes around my doors and windows in the stamp room and my new bedroom. As soon as we can figure out why it is leaking and lay the carpet we can get it all done. If I recall right, the goal this year is to use stamp sets I have not used before, so for my first two cards today, I used two old standby's, wings and things and all year cheer II. All of the stamps and the card stock are from Stampin up's soft subtles line, except for the chocolate chip stamp of the butterfly and the words.

I won a pay it forward a few weeks ago. I was wondering when

I was going to get the stuff. Yesterday, my mom says did you get that box that came in the mail for you the other day? I said no what box? She said, I don't know it came the day your Uncle was here. I said no I haven't gotten anything for awhile. So after much digging, we found the box. In it was my PIF gift. I love it. It is so amazing! Not only is the gift a great gift, but I love the card also. Thank you http://blog.michellescrapbooking.com/ I realized belatedly that I should have kept your address to send you a thank you card. I am so sorry it took such a long time to thank you, but I truly do love it. It will match my new stamp room perfectly.

Jeni did all the thinking or the finding of these cards. She also did all of the cutting. but it was a fun day and I am glad i got a few cards.
