Cup of Cocoa

Hi again everyone!

It's really cold here again, so what better to warm you up but a nice warm cup of cocoa! This darling stamp is from CC designs and she is part of the sugar plums collection. Her name is Cocoa Emma and you can pick her up here in the all that scraps online store. I used rubber, but they also have her in digital..if you like digital better.

My paper I just picked up yesterday. It's all foil snowflakes and they are hard to see in the photo, but all pretty and shiny! I really wanted to add some additional snowflakes, but even with all the supplies I have here, I couldn't find just the perfect ones for my card.

Friends and fun!

Well, I had a great time this weekend with all my scrappin' friends at our retreat. As predicted, I didn't get a whole lot finished, but here are a few of the projects I did manage to squeeze in. I used Mo's digital designs for the patriotic girl and boy. The apple is made with CC designs sugarplums and We can all enjoy some friendly house mouse. Plus, I have my first Christmas card finished for the year!!

Just sittin here thinking of you

Just sittin here thinking of you. I always love my mermaids! I made this card for the all that scraps challenge blog here but as it came together, I know the perfect person to give the card to. I know she has been down in the dumps lately and I hope it will cheer her up. The challenge this week was a sketch and as you know, I just love sketches. It is so much easier to put a card together for me when someone else figures out the layout! I hope you like it, Enjoy.

The last of the Bunch...

These are the final cards for my friends gift box. I loved the flower pot card and just had to include one of those. I changed up the colors and really like how it turned out. I hadn't used the Changito monkeys yet, and I really love them. The bling I had for the bubbles I found in the dollar spot at Michaels a while back and knew I would have the perfect project for them. I can't wait to find another project to use them on..I just love how bubbly they are! The bird..yes..I had to use the bird punch again! I think I am addicted to it. I hope they have some more fun punches like this in the new catty in July. Enjoy!

Spring is on the way!

Today's card is anothe CC Designs stamp. I was having a lot of fun using some paper I found on clearance. A whole stack for $4.00. It was an awesome bargain for 180 sheets of pattern paper. I think I am trying to push spring a little. I thought this little Heidi girl was so cute sitting in her bed of flowers. I hope you like it!

An Apple a day

Today's creation comes from another Sugarplum stamp. I don't have too many, but the ones I have I just love. I think it is meant to be more of a fall stamp, but I changed the paper to make it more of a spring mood. I think/hope spring is coming someday. Enjoy.
