My Crafty Weekend



Hello and happy Sunday.  I had so much fun playing with some adorable stamped images sent to me by Kim. I fell in love with these two puppies sharing an ice cream soda, and knew I had to make a card right away.  Aren't they an adorable pair?

I was inspired by the sketch at Fusion, the bricks and pop of yellow from Inspired By #140, and the theme at SOSS #168: F is for Friendship. 








Next up is a birthday card, using the colors at Inky Paws #131.  I was inspired by the sketch at AAA Cards #173, the theme at CAS on Friday #188: Party Time, and Seize the Birthday #198: No Topping.













I am a total sucker for stamps with books or reading, so this cutie from MFT caught my eye.  I used this week's MFT Sketch #505, making all of my card panels white to keep the card from looking too busy.  I am also entering this card at Seize the Birthday #198: No Topping.





My next card uses the colors at MFT Color #148 and the same sketch above.  My challenge to myself was to make something other than a Halloween card, so I pulled out MFT Fall Florals and made a get well card.






My next card had me reaching for some old favorite floral stamps from PTI, Cutting Garden.  I was inspired by the colors at Color Throwdown #609 and the challenge at Ink to Paper to make a Thanks project.  I am also entering this card at WWC287.






I am entering all five of my cards today at Simon Says Wednesday Challenge: Stamp It.




Thanks for Visiting

  2. Your weekends are always so productive Joyce - I am loving the shine of the bricks you've created behind those cute pups and the MFT sketch is inspired! I started to have a go at that one and gave up and did the colour challenge instead!
