Hoppy Easter!

Hola Peeps! Hoppy Easter! I thought I would just hop on by and post a special little Hoppy Birthday card with some of my fav A Muse stamps. I am back in challenge mode, so I am playing along with AMC15 in the A Muse Lounge and also another entry for the Moxie Fab Picking Up the Pieces Challenge. I actually was just picking up the pieces of my boiled potatoes for the potato salad I am making for today's Easter feast. I can never judge when it's cooked too much. I do the fork poking stuff but it just seems like it is never cooked enough, so they end up practically exploding in the pot. So I had some casualties and the others were off to the freezer for a quick cool down. Still waiting ... so I thought I should at least finish my post before I head out to see my family. Hope you all have a blessed Easter!!!!

Looky ... I went cut it up ka-razy on this. LOL! I cut out the bunny and paper pieced her dress. I cut out the polka dot frame and then paper pieced the center. Lots o' Fun!

See ya tomorrow for Elzybells Sneak Peeks!

TESC107 - You're Sew Lovely!

Hola Chicas! Happy Good Friday! This week's Taylored Expressions sketch is Sew Lovely, as I got to use my new Lawn Fawn stamps. I knew I had to paper piece that pretty dress and those cute buttons for my embellishment across the bottom. I used the American Crafts - Abode collection for all the patterned paper. I really love those buttons! This sketch is so fun and it really sparked my creativity this week. I hope you can all play along with us for TESC107. Taylor is always looking for her Top Crops each week and it could be YOU!

Moxie Fab Stamping Challenge!

Hi ya! It's Sunday & I am still stamping. Just love this new Merry Mint collection by American Crafts. It's my fav - Gingerbread! Woo Hoo! I still have some more gingerbread stuff coming. I made this card for the Moxie Fab World Stamping Challenge. I really loved the paper so much I only stamped the sentiments. Stamping only the sentiments was a real stretch for me. The center of the card reminded me of one of my favorite Christmas cookie platters. This was a fun card to make, since it was simple. Hope you are all having a wonderful day and thanks for visiting me.
