My Crafty Week



I had such a fun and crafty week, and the highlight was a 3 day visit by Kim, where we were joined for a day of crafting by Jacquie and Marybeth.  We talked, laughed and stamped and die cut the entire time.  I even made a few cards, in addition to stamping and cutting things for later.

I was inspired by the sketch at Freshly Made Sketches #399, and stamped portions of the cats and dogs from MFT Picture Perfect.  I am also entering this card at Addicted to Stamps and More #352: Make Your Mark, and Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge:  Anything Goes.






I used my new Simon Says Stamp Panda kit for this next card, which I colored with Copic markers.  I am entering this card at Addicted to Stamps and More #352: Make Your Mark, and Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge:  Anything Goes, Simon Says Monday Challenge:  Bright and Cheerful and Seize the Birthday, without the topping.









Again, using stamps I borrowed from Kim, I made this punny card using Catherine Pooler I Pick You stamps.  I am entering this card at CAS Colours and Sketches #332 and Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge:  Anything Goes.







Another card using those fabulous Catherine Pooler stamps....and I am entering it at Just Add Ink #468: Just Add "C" (CITRUS),  Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge:  Anything Goes, and Simon Says Monday Challenge:  Bright and Cheerful.







One more birthday card for my stash, using a new to me older die from Avery Elle.  I am entering this card at Seize the Birthday, without the topping, Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge:  Anything Goes and  Simon Says Monday Challenge:  Bright and Cheerful.







Last up, an encouraging card using Kim's new Paper Smooches Sunnyville stamps, and I am entering this card at Paper Smooches August School and Words Challenge (encouragement for the first day of school, and the words are in the sentiment), and also at Addicted to Stamps and More #352: Make Your Mark.







That's it for me this week.  Hopefully, I'll get some crafting time this weekend--I've got loads to work on now.


Thanks for Visiting
