Today's challenge over at 365 Cards is Splat: Create a card with splatters. You can use a mist, re-inker, paint  or any other means to make your splat. Here is my card: I used Black Cherry Glimmer Mist, Citrus Leaf re-inker, and Broken China Distress Paint for my splats. The stamp set is Faithful Phrases 1 from Market Street Stamps. Have a very Happy Easter!!

I am here sharing this fun and bright card that I made using the My Thoughts Exactly set from Market Street Stamps. I think that thought bubble pairs very nicely with the Amy Tangerine patterned paper.  The stars on the card are a newer addition to my stash from Freckled Fawn . I do believe that I have found a small piece of heaven in that store with all of the washi tape and bits that they have.

Just popping in to share a card I made for my cousin and his adorable wife. I used paper and decorative tape from Bella Blvd and the Baby Basics set from Market Street Stamps. The coloring was done with Copic Markers. It's a real simple but super cute card for their upcoming precious baby boy!

Here are a couple of quick cards that I wanted to share using the Growth stamp set from Market Street Stamps. I am really missing my craft work lately, so I am hoping to find some time to get down to business soon. I am currently still recovering from a horrible sinus infection that I came down with while on vacation to Walt Disney World, but I hope to have some pictures and projects to share this week.

I know I have slacking on the blogging lately, but I have a bunch of posts coming up in the next weeks. A couple are ones for design team assignments, but mostly, just because I was able to have some time recently to make things! Here is a card I made at a recent crop weekend: I love this paper from Carta Bella. It is from the Traditions collection and it's so pretty! The stamps are from Market Street Stamps' Growth set. It is really great for any Get Well or Sympathy cards that you would like to send out.

Hello! I thought I would pop in with a quick and pretty Valentine's Day card. I found these lace doilies at the Dollar Spot in Target and thought they were a must have. Nice and small, perfect for a card. The hearts were punched from Crate Paper's Fourteen collection, the washi tape is from Freckled Fawn and the sentiment stamp is from Market Street Stamps' Birds of a Feather set.

I am so excited to have a card done, that I actually made without it having to be due for something! Woohoo, yay me!! We are finally getting back to our normal routine in my house now that The Sickness has left. And that means that I was able to get a chance to go down to my craft room and actually do some crafting! So I decided to whip out some of my amazing Market Street Stamps and make a card. Here is the product of said whipping: I used the wonderful images from the oh so talented Kim Geiser's set Love . Her illustrations are just so fun to play with!   That yummy patterned paper is from Crate Paper's Fourteen collection and the embossing folder is by Lifestyle Crafts Sweetheart set . Not to forget the decorative tape, it's from Bella Blvd . Hope you had fun looking today! 

What a week it has been!! Hope your's has been better than mine! The oldest has had a hacking cough since the beginning of the week, and things just seem to be going down hill from there with fevers and such. Hopefully we can get her seen today and get her some prescribed meds to help her not feel so miserable. That coughing just does not want her to be able to rest! Well today is another new challenge over on the 365 Cards blog with the prompt being  Skewed: Make it where all of the elements of the card are skewed (not straight).  And here is my example:  The patterned paper is from Crate Paper's Fourteen collection and the bling is from various manufacturers. The stamp sets, Funky Herringbone and Birds of a Feather , are from Market Street Stamps. Here is a close-up of the Funky Herringbone. I used Versamark Ink and Ranger Fine Detail black embossing powder to make the background of the Polaroid. I then used Tim Holtz Distress Stains a...

Hello on this fabulously snowy Saturday! We are busy running back and forth for a soccer tournament for the littlest one. She really does love herself some soccer! Today is fresh challenge over at the 365 Cards blog. The prompt is Tuck it in Your Pocket: Make a pocket for the inside of your card and add a little decoration to it. Here is my example: I used the Birds of a Feather stamp set from Market Street Stamps and the new Secret Crush Collection from Pink Paislee. Here is the inside of the card: For this I used more of the Secret Crush Collection and the Love Birds stamp from Market Street Stamps. And now I have the winner for the last of this year's Spirit of Giving Giveaway: Congratulations to Beth Brunette !!! I will get that wonderful stack of Market Street Stamps out to you in the mail Beth! Thank you all so much for joining me in my last giveaways for 2012.

Good morning! Today is my day to share over on the Market Street Stamps Blog . I thought I would used this super cool Dreamcatcher designed by Miss Brenda Weaver. I LOVE the feathers she used in this set, but you have got to check out the other awesome images too! I thought I would go for a fun, bright theme here. Normally, when I think of dreamcatchers and stars, I am thinking about bedtime. But for this card, I wanted to go with a "Go out and chase your dreams!" kind of theme. I wanted to make a statement, and "hopefully I pulled that off here ;) Well, I hope you enjoy the rest of your day and I will see you back here soon!!

Just popping in quick again with another Market Street Stamps Market Mini that was released earlier this month called Wild . This one was also designed by Miss Stephanie Washburn . It didn't show up in the picture very well, but I love, love, LOVE the sentiment that comes with that very pretty peacock feather: All good things are wild and free.

Just wanted to pop in quick with a spooky cute Halloween card! This was made with another newly released Market Mini from Market Street Stamps called Fangstastic .
