Hello Owen and My Sis's Late Birthday Card

So I have been busy the last few months...My DD had her baby a cute little Grandson isnt he the cutest...I made this card before I headed out of town, but never got it posted...never got it mailed for that matter either..Poor Sister has been waiting for weeks.
He came a few days sooner than expected.  I used Pretty in Pink, Kiwi Kiss, and Melon Mambo. I embossed with Cuttlebug Dots, and Victoria.

I used mySU Cupcake and Decorative Label and MS Arched Lattice punch.
The SU stamp sets are Eat Cake and Whimsical Words

I hope you enjoyed the pictures...Hoping to be caught up around the house soon, so I can have more crafting time.
Until Later (Hopefully Sooner) ... Happy Stamping!

Karissa and Ryans Invites

Every once in a while it is nice to help someone out with the skills I have; so this week I helped out a friend by making some wedding invites for  her son and his fiance. They moved their date up by a few months and have not had the opportunity to get enough money together.  My firend asked if I could help out. I used Photoshop amd a free brush set I downloaded called DecorativeFloral Brushes:by Pixels and Ice Cream:   I get the brushes and other decorative features for using in Photoshop at Brusheezy, and Fonts at Dafont...English was used for these announcements.  I love having a computer and a nice printer when a friend needs something with a quick turn around.  I also used my stash to punch all the Scalloped ovals. Using up scraps from the wedding invites I made last year for my DD is  areal bonus. I dont know if I have any scraps of CC left...:) which hasnt been the case in over a year. I used SU Punches,  CB Swiss Dots Embosiing folder and  RGB codes for Certainly Celery and Mambo Melon. The lime ribbon is an inexpesive Offray satin .50 cents a roll with an Organza Strawberry ribbon 2.89 for 25 yards on sale.  SU Certainly Celery was used to mat the image..  The Postacrds and Registration cards were designed using an image designed in photoshop from the same floral brush set and  English font. The return address is printed on the reverse to help cut down mailing cost for the RSVPs.  I'ld like to say these were fun to make but when you make 200 of something a little bit of the fun wears off, but it was fun to come up with a design and produce the first few!

Until Later... Happy Stamping!

"Keep Dreaming"

This week I had a fullfillment of a dream I had for my Children. My Daughter graduated from college with a degree in Mathmatics Education.  Her Husband also graduated in Latin American Studies. I am so proud of both of them.  What an accomplishment!  I mad ethem this card. I thought of using congratulations or Celebrate on th eCard but decided that Dream worked great.. because of the fullfillment of a Dream and the  Dreams yet to come in their life.

I hope they like the card. I used Pear Pizzazz, and Melon Mambo.  I havent got my Melon Mambo stamp pad yet, so, I sponged with Pink Passion, and Certainly Celery using the SU Decor stencil  set, "Faux Flowers". The ribbon is stash form th ewedding last June and I used the sentiment form fabulosr Phrases. I lov ethis style of card every time I make them. Hope you do to.
Until later...Happy Stamping!
