A Gift for You

Oh, this card is so fun! Yup, that is CTMH's new Sorbet again. I also used Playful flourishes stamp set and the birhtday bash set for the present. I used a lil prisma glitter over the liquid glass to make it a lil special:)

Tea Tin for nummy cookies


My dear cutie friend, Katie likes to challenge me with things to make and this was one of my favorite challenges:) This is perfect for some lil ginger snaps...that sounds sooo good. I used the Sorbet cardstock from CTMH, Cocoa and Colonial White as well. I can't wait to make some cookies to go with this. The best part of this is that lil buckle on the ribbon:)

New Sorbet!!...okay, I DO love it:0




Alrighty, then! I really do like the new Sorbet color introduced by Close To My Heart. It is so versatile. I am using it as a fall color for my next gathering. I made this layout to show what ya could do with the color and some fall pictures. I used Cocoa to go with it. I used CTMH's Nature's Veins and Thing of Beauty stamp sets. This was a fun weekend with my brother and his family when they lived up in Bellingham, WA area. I even got to have TRICKY STIX!! My personal fave!

Paper Backpacks




Well, my youngest started school yesterday. I was pretty sad to see my lil' buddy get on the bus and leave me...all alone:( So, in honor of school starting, I made this cutie patootie backpack from a template I found on Splitcoast Stampers. I had to make it boyish, but it turned out cute anyway. I think I'll stash these away for a test day or something like that. Green is in honor of Dallin...my green boy. I used Olive B&T paper from CTMH, New England Ivy CS from CTMH, ribbon and silver eyelets...oh, and the chocolate Brad, too.

Masculine Birthday Card


I really struggle with masculine cards because I always want to use flowers and froofy stuff on my cards. This one turned out pretty darn cute, though. I just love these balloons from CTMH's Birthday Bash stamp set. I used their Good Times paper...just a tiny bit because it is really busy paper. Hope my brother likes it:)

Pink!


I love the new pink colors from Papertrey Inc. Their cardstock is the best! It is so thick and nice to work with. All of this card is made with PTI, Berry Sorbet and Sweet Blush. I added a few brads for the bling and that was all. I love the clean look to PTI's papers and designs. Very refreshing in a distressing kind of world:)
