NOT a preview card...


but instead something different. A bright card. A VERY VERY VERY VERRRRRRYYYYYYY briiiiiiight card. haha!

I loved this American Crafts patterned paper and when I was at Wal*Mart, they had paper that matches it identically! It was sort of freaky how perfectly it matches. LOL

This little cutie pie is a hÄnglar & stÄnglar image. I just loooove these stamps! They are, unfortunately, only available in Sweden and Norway. :(

What I used: American Crafts PP, Copic markers, Wal*Mart cardstock, I think it is a PTI sentiment...it is Mary Dawn's, Stickles, Cuttlebug, Spellbinders dies, Brilliance ink.

Thanks for stopping in today!

Bit off...

in color, but you get the gist of it, right? LOL We didn't have an "optimum lighting situation" when these photos were taken.

Anyway, this was another card that I made for the ATS preview that I was too dumb to post. LOL

On this one, I've used Amy R's Underwater Sentiments stamps for the little saying. I have always, always loved this cute little monkey! He's from the Summertime Fun set from ATS and he was one of the first ones that I bought. I love the goofy little grin on his face!

What I used: Cuttlebug, Spellbinders, SU CS, C.C. Designs Copic Quality White, Memento ink, Copic markers, white gel pen, twill ribbon, a brad.

Thanks for stopping in today! Hope you have a great day!

Well, yes..huh...where have I been?


On a nice, long vacation! That's where! I went back home to Kentucky to visit family and Mary Dawn over at My Pink Mexico. If you read her blog, you'll know that she and I got to have a little fun, crafty time together! hehe!

So, since I was gone it looks like I messed up doing my review previews for ATS' June release as well as my previews for July's release. Sooo....you're gonna get them all this week.

And y'all, did you seeeeee the cuteness that Christine has put together over at ATS with the whole Autumn Stamp kit? She snuck that in...I can't wait to get my grubby little hands on that one!

So...without further adieu, I present to you one of my preview cards that I made and never got posted...I'll start with the stamp set that they are reviewing today (hehehe...cheater me!) It uses Amy R.'s new butterfly stamp set. They are so gorgeous!

What I used: SU CS, C.C. Designs Copic Quality White (did you see they have Ivory now? I have some....I'll use it soon on a card!), Amy's Butterflies, Hero Arts flowers, Doodlebug mini brad with a bead spacer, DCWV PP, Cuttlebug, Spellbinders dies, SU ribbon, Shimmerz Paints, Amy R's birthday sentiments.

That's all for today! Sorry to take so long in posting...I just didn't want to put it out in my public blog that I was going to be away from my house for so long...I mean, I have an alarm and all, but still...security and all. hehe!

Thanks for stopping in! And thanks to Mary Dawn for taking some cool photos on the fly for me and editing them. :)
